i have been thinking of buying this hardware .. what you guys think its still profitable ? how long will it take to break even

Go for it, but think about it as a learning exercise, or as a hobby, or as a long shot of making lots of money in 10-20 years.
It will not make you much cash in the short term.

Hey smith can you provide a step by step tuto to use your firmware? I know you helped Prelude with S4 so I trust you on that firmware. Grin

No special knowlege or steps needed, just download firmware form nicehash(https://www.nicehash.com/index.jsp?p=software#asic), load it via web interface System->Upgrade, wait 90 seconds, done.
Also you can navigate to http://miner_ip/cgi-bin/graph.rrd to see some perf graphs. They collected locally in background every 60 seconds, stored in /config folder so the stats will survive reboots.

Let me know if people (including time travellers) want mirrors on these, I'll download and keep copies.

Looks like old firmware

What is the last firmware ?? Does it help on perf??

Yes, reduced cpu load to 20%, fresh cgminer 4.9.0 and nice graphs Cheesy

Where did you get it? How does one install it? No idea how to update firmware. also, is it third party? Last thing I want to do is brick it.

I've made it. Based on latest official with fresh cgminer and some tweaks, include some additional software to render nice graphs Cheesy

also includes right extranonce patch, flashed like official firmware via web interface.
But this is not an official firmware so for many people this is not an option
Btw, brick is impossible, if you had power outage when flashing, just load s4 firmware onto sd card and boot miner, after that flash s5 firmware again

My new miner is hashing along nicely.

As I can see you also doesnt have best share on S5.

Any idea why ??

BITMAIN sends Used miners and different revisions. I Got rev1.5 and rev1.9 with a ton of dust
(batch 5)
Sad

You purchased these new and they sent you used miners?

The speculation is that Bitmain is selling off the units they have been mining with as they replace them with new generation units. This isn't an issue as long as they identify the units as being used rather than new.

Another possibility is that refurbished units are being sold as new.

Another possibility is that people are just mistaken.

Also I am thinking that I am getting a pull - pull situation. The miner is pulling from the front to back and then the PSU is pulling from back to front. I think that is helping. I may have to tweak this once it starts getting warmer and I definitely will not be overclocking.

Check output voltage of psu

I'm going to have to buy a meter.

mine runs on 12.7 volt so 12,7/15=0.846 volts per chip
