you got to be nuts a sp20 over an s5 look how much power it uses.

Specifications: Spondoolies-Tech SP20 Jackson
Hash Rate: 1.7 TH/s ± 10%, 200 GH/s per chip
Chips: 8x 28nm Spondoolies-Tech RockerBox ASICs
Controller: TI Sitara 1GHz (based on Beagle Bone Black) cgminer with custom plugins
Size: D 382mm x W 110mm x H 137 mm
Network: Single 10/100 Ethernet port
Fans: 1 X 120 mm
Power: 4x ATX PCIe
Power Consumption: 1200 W w/ a 0.9 Efficiency PSU
Ambient Operating Temperature: 0 °C to 35 °C

S5 only pulls 525 watt at 1200 Gh/s!!!

What watt meter did you use to get your information or are you just using printed specifications.

On a 60% load PSU for 92% effeciency I get 584W on 125V outlets for the S5 with 1150-1250GH at the pool.
SP20 at 1150-1250GH is 620W-640W, but if you have cheap electricity the 1700 option at 1200W+ is nice, if not then S5 is more profitable depending on the buy in price.
As a owner of both with the bitcoin price rebound, I'm currently quite happy with ROI prospects.

bitmain again increased the price of S5.

maybe they should price them in BTC if thay want to track BTC price ?

I agree....y the heck do they keep doin this?? When the price of btc dropped they lowered the cost of the miners then when im about to order some i see the price of btc went up maybe $10 but bitmain jacked up their prices $37 bucks per miner. Call me crazy but shouldnt the btc amount go down as the usd prices go up?? Needless to say im not buyin s5's now. Theres no reason for this price increase expect trying to get more and more from their customers so i just wont buy from them. Like others have said sp20's prices only go down and hash at the same w per gh as the s5 and run with alot less noise too lol.

and suck more power from your wall and cost more for electric lol.

I was considering the Antminer S5, I've enjoyed using their last two products but unfortunately due to the greed here(drop in btc value != increase in price, covering for potential losses), I will be getting my self an enclosed SP20.

They are digging the grave, only to yourself. Today the cost of 3 x S5 with shipping to me was 4 BTC 945.448 USD
Now it is 4.225 BTC ( 1038.448 USD ) +20% VAT =1246 USD

Better I buy 3 x SP20 for 1195 USD and I ask the bill for customs 600USD . Yes, I Pay 100 USD more, But for the miner, what not need to rebuild. And having a closed housing , not a open fireplace.

+1. purchased a trio of SP20 today. Ive had both it and the S5, and my thoughts for what was better:
S5: 0.5w/gh, even up to 1.3TH+ , LOUD fan with no ability to adjust pwm settings. Getting the fan to run at 7V reasonably cools the unit at 375MHz in a 20C room.
SP20: far better design, cables are all on the front face, little less efficient at 1.2-1.3TH, but capable of ~0.45w/gh when underclocked below 1TH. can overclock if an increase in BTC value makes the added electrical draw worthwhile. Can set the fan to any speed

The SP20 is a better product, capable of similar specs at 1.25TH as the S5, and manually turning the clock to 10-15% is sufficient at that hashrate with similar volume to a 7v antminer fan. The antminer has to compete in price to stay relevant.

okay let me ask it this way you overclock it to 1700 GH/s what is the power reading on the wall ?

to much power draw on the sp20.

it's the same at same frequency. but you can overclock SP20 up to 1700Gh/s

We all know that at frequency 400 hashrate stop to grow, so may be rising the voltage we can achieve higher hashrate?

I am not sure that is entirely correct as I've managed to squeeze marginally more @ 412.5 than at 400 albeit with a significantly higher HW % rate at the former freq. But as has been suggested above, I believe an increase in voltage can yield a better rate, however, I have not seen any guidance as to how high(er) we can safely over-volt these strung units.

I did 412.5 over 1310gh with 2 oem fans one pulling 1 pushing in a cold room 50 f /10 c with very few errors. I did not bother testing more as the sound was a issue.
if you can get a 32f 0c room and use 2 oem fans you can do 425- 431 with no extra volts.

Never mind a "room", I've got mine in a garden shed, and it feels like -1 out there now! Only difference is I only have a pull fan scavenged from one of my decomissioned S3's (.... stock fan was a DOA and never turned at all in anger). Temps are 43 / 51 at the moment and doing ~1350Gh/s average 20hrs with 0.0094% HW @ 412.5 as opposed to 0.0009% @ 400.

Well, since "Searching is temporarily disabled", I should ask here. Sorry if it has been already asked, but can we somehow set/modify voltage for further S5 overclocking?

only by means of your PSU
