Guys,  thanks for the ant porn.  Now too excited and can't sleep.

Hummmmmm 6 blocks.  It can be possible but if you found that many, you might want to go buy a lotto ticket just in case.  Your luck may be super high!!  Grin

We've seen people finding blocks with even S2 like bang bang bang, all of a sudden in a shared pool and seen some with USB miners hitting a block in solo mining.  But wander if those 6 blocks were BTC block or altcoins or unfortunate firmware bugs.

More Sexy Ant Porn please  Grin Grin Grin

How many of you guys running S5 over clocked?

How is the result on power consumption and HW error side?

Also, OC, you definately need 4 PCI-E plugs connected but for normal stock operations anyone running S5 with just 1 PCI-E connection to each hashing PCB?  We know it works, but again, being curious if anyone is successfully doing so on the customers end.

Please DO NOT burn the chips while OC them.  Keep them plenty of air flow and keep them as cold as you can be.  RMA techs may birth a cow or two when they see burnt BM1384 chips   Grin

And if  your Ants happen to be a lucky one to find a block or blocks, Show US your Ants Porn!!!!




Apparently this is pretty good Smiley I am lucky that I am in an area where it is freezing out and will be for the next little while. I have an insulated unheated garage and can keep the ambient air temp at about -3 C. When summer hits I will have to dial it back.

I can absolutely guarantee that you didn't find 6 BTC blocks with a single antminer. I had various generations of Bitmain miners "find" dozens of blocks according to the miner stats. Unfortunately they were simply errors on the stats page.

More about overclocking, power consumption and HW errors rate you can as usually find in my humble review.  Roll Eyes

I received my S5 yesterday. Damn it was a LONG day at work.  Cry
Anyway. As I am STILL waiting for stock of the Raidmax RM1000. I decided to give my Gigabyte 730w PSU a go.
1x PCI-E plug per blade. Runs for 4hours stable @ 175mhz @ 42C. Funny thing is ambient temp last night was 38C. Weird.
I dont want to push it and damaged the S5 in anyway.
Going to try build a 'vertical' case for the S5 this weekend.

38C is not a problem, I've tested my unit up to 45C and it doesn't make a huge difference over 35C. Some weaker PSUs [100% loaded CX750Ms] start to drop out, S5 fan RPMs are maxed but temps are still acceptable.

[Actually answering your question this time, misread Tongue] Do both blades report the same temps?

Do you guys think this is good stats for two ANTMINER S3's and one S5 ?
Why on Gods green earth are you crunching diff 2048 shares ?

I would recommend setting the S3's at diff 256 and the S5's at 1024.

Yeah drop down the S3 difficulties and you'll get more balanced earnings.

Are you sure it would change his earning? From what I understand, it shouldn't. He'd only get a more accurate hash rate reading pool-side.

Average earnings will be the same, but he'll get more day to day variance, and hour to hour harder to see if units are behaving or not. [Potentially a minor reduction in earnings due to more stale shares.]

I'm very care full  how far i Push it i hate down time warr or not.and i reboot them about every two or three days to be safe .This one is  using a http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0090I9W66/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o06_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 with two http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00FKNAG7Y/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o08_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 at the wall at that speed is 695 watts. in a 50 degree room i have my windows open in the winter but need heat for others in the house or it would be colder inside maybe  like 30 degrees  before the heat would go on .






Oyea any way we can get  BFGminer support Smiley .

I found a block recently for btcguild with only 6.xTH/s. I wasn't able to find out which antminer did it. It could have been one of my S3's that had restarted a few days prior. All my other miners have been running for a while but none are showing a found block and bestshare doesn't work at btcguild. I noticed I found a block while looking at the rankings page. Last time I found a block was early last year with an S1 when difficulty was like 2.6 billion.

I oc'd my S5's earlier to 400mhz. After 4 hrs, one is avging 1295 and the other 1283. HWE are at 387 and 1202. Haven't hooked them up to a watt meter at these settings yet. Temps are at low 40c and usually stay under 50c.

This setup is returning about 0.014 - 0.015 BTC per day on Nicehash.

Thoughts? Should I be concerned about the HW Errors?


four days up time if it's showing right at 400 Frequency is awesome for HW errors. for westhash or nicehash.



don't go by the HW errors as a number they add up over time, %'s under Diff1# DiffA# is what to worry about i was told any thing above 0.388 is bad or can be, your fine if it's been run in for 4 days.


ASIC status
oooooooo oooooooo oooooooo oooooo
oooooooo oooooooo oooooooo oooooo

after fours days still at 0 .



to bad those blocks are not BTC blocks but alt coins .

LOL Did not even notice the blocks. Wish that was BTC. 150 BTC sweet!

I have 2 B4 S5's. Been running both at 375mhz each on a CX750 for 27days. One has 267 hw errors and the other 6547. Both avg 1235 gh/s.

Anyone tried 400mhz on a CX750?

Yes, all mine are on CX750's, total of 8 S5s running 400mhz, lowest is 1210 gh/s highest is 1300 gh/s. Does seem to make a small difference on most but a couple of my miners throw way less errors at 375 and still mine in the 1200 gh/s range, just play with the settings on each to see what works best for each miner.

Thanks for the info! Might give it a shot and see what they can do Smiley

No, still statistically insignificant.

Thanks for that but could you elaborate please.

You might be using too much power though.  Most of my S5's will hash over 1200 ghs at 375.
