1. The included PSU cannot be used in countries with a mains power voltage lower than 205V. The PSU will not start below this voltage.
Pretty much has no market in North America then.

S4+ is very noisy, and not suitable to mine at home. While S4+ is working with US industrial electrical standard.

bitmain should send fans of silent to all customers who have purchased s5 with infernal noise

but then again the Chinese by nature and very greedy for money, and with style are born, not made with money lords

Antminer S5: $340 for 1155 Ghash, which is $294 per Thash at 0.51W/Ghash

New Antminer S4+: $946 for 2570 Ghash, which is $368 per Thash at 0.58W/Ghash

What am I missing? New miner is released which is less efficient but the price per Ghash is higher? The difference is more then $70 per Thash, definetly not worth the PSU you get with it...

I agree with you, a DPS2000BB with fans and breakout board will cost roughly 100$, can power 3x S5 and can be used with your next gen miner.

For the same price, you can have 3xS5, more efficient and hashing at 3400-3500 GH.
Bad timing to release this one, or the price should be dropped under 640$.

You will need to provide a PSU for each or both those S5...

S2 upgrade kits with BM1384 would have been better right now, or some kind of S6.

Yeah... We are still waiting while Bitmain keep silence... And may be they will continue to keep silence since S4+ should be sold...

Whoa!!!

You can always use any server PSU, and this one (stock PSU) - sold it to someone who need it or try to ask Bitmain to ship S4 without PSU. I would prefer to buy it without PSU in any case (less shipping price, more freedom to choose reliable and powerful PSU for overclocking).

But with such a price, with such a BTC price, I have serious doubts that I will buy it ever...

Looks like the board design and PSU guys did all the work, and ASIC guys sat this one out. Interesting set of choices. They must have ordered a bunch of BM1382 parts. The yields on those must be pretty good.

Did I miss the price in this announcement, or is that only available on the ordering page?

Whoa!!!

Just about time that a manufacture released a new product.

This miner is going to be BIG!

Since this uses the same chips as the S3. Can the S3 be downclocked to run at a similar efficiency? 0.58J/GH ?

Also I think this should be put in bold
