Thanks... I'll try that!!!

upload your pic to imgur or other free service, then choose the size (large thumbnail is good)
copy and paste directly in the post the link from imgur that says message board formatted image or something like that.

while others are happily hashing on the current equipment...

it is unlikely that S6 will be a huge revelation-most likely 0.4Gh/w or slightly below.
3.6Th at ~0.4Gh/w=1440w, at the limit of a typical 15w circuit at 115V.
I would be surprised if it will be something drastically more efficient.

Also, don't expect to pay less than $1500 shipped for it. It is NOT going to be a bargain because BMT large box machines never are.

Yea. I can show you a pic but first tell me how to upload a pic. It's been a while and I can't seem to find a help file.

I couldn't resist, the timing is properly insane .

Is it possible to change the voltage of the chips trough software in this gen of board S5/C1?

Bitmain shows C1 available to purchase but won't ship until after the holidays.  The S5 is in a sold out status.  I see their top offering is hosted S5's on Hashfast.net but those are sold out as well.

I wonder what the Bitmain supported S5 farm means as far as quality of any S5's offered to the public in the future.

Who's the North American supplier for Avalon 4.1?

The Avalon 4.1s are nice for home miners as well.  Just a bit more expensive, but extremely quiet for 1+ TH/s.   I have a mixture of Bitmain S3s, S5s, and Avalon 4.1s.

I originally had 9 S3s at my office, but have since brought them home and replaced them with the Avalon 4.1s since they are much quieter and virtually have almost no sound at all since noise is the concern at the office.

Hummmm  interesting question...

we have not seen a masked S5 yet 

any pictures?

Does anyone use a dust filter on their s5? I have one on the push fan. It contributes a bit to the noise but what do you all do with dust?

Europe requires a hell of a lot of heating, which is elec/gas that would have otherwise been burnt for free.

Its just for the holidays, everything proper shuts down at this time.

I've been wondering about free or low cost power.  I've  been to trying research and figure out how to find exactly that for a few weeks now, but to no avail.  No one I know has unlimited power included in their homeowners or something similar.

I'd love to hear some solid advice on how to join these many people with an edge on power costs.

Thanks.

That is normal.

When I make the can switch I'm not going to be at 1.1Th/s but I would like to be close. I'll be watching the temps and if I'm stable and I can run the miner in the 60's then I could get a few more hashed out of it.

1) What power supply make and model are you running?
2) Are you seeing the varying hashrate on the S5's status page or your pool's status page?
3) What pool is it at?
4) Please can you provide a screenshot of the S5's status page?

Temps are best kept under 60C but its not a "its going to blow up" situation if below 70C. You may shorten the lifetime of your S5 by running it that hot however. Hardware errors shouldn't change appreciably between 60 or 70C either.

I am using a EVGA SuperNOVA 650G1 650W ATX12V Power Supply 120-G1-0650-XR power supply
I am seeing varying hash rates on both the status page and the pool's page. I know they are not going to be exact but the pool shows a dip in my hash rate, the hash rate graph on slush's pool (the one I'm using) looks like a saw blade rather than a straight line. The miner is set a 337.5 and that should give me 1.1Th/s but it sometimes dips to just under 1Th/s then back up.
Im using slush's pool with btcguild as a secondary

sorry, its been a while... how do i post a screenshot? i have it in png format

S5 is sold out.

Can buy C1 and S5. Just no more S3.

But you cant even buy antminers now...

the simple answer.... because they can. The market will bare it.

At this point there are really only 2 options for home miners... Bitmain and SP and Bitmain is less than SP.
