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

That is a shroud "Hollow" 120mm delta fan with the air blades still on the back AND THAT IS THE STOCK S5 FAN IN THE PICTURE!!!
Appears an interesting conclusion, though I've no access to dead Delta fans! A bummer!BTW: I was granted a coupon by Bitmain, but when I tried to order my wallet refused to allow me payment access. So that provides a challenge, but more immediately, my coupon disappeared! IE. if you put up your coupon and the order fails, then you lose the coupon! Damn!

wow why does FedCrap I mean FedEx do this bullshit when UPS don't ?
UPS does also. I've seen it a lot in tracking. The US gov't requires an SSN or EIN for imports over a certain amount to track everything people do. Supposed to be to combat tax evasion and money laundering but they want too much information on what people do.

A heads up to anyone in the US having these shipped via the new FedEx option to save a few bucks. I have been called/emailed multiple times today from FedEx asking what a 'Bitcoin miner' is. The latest is an attempt to have me fill out some FCC form (which I have refused to do.) I don't know if I will be receiving my shipment next week via FedEx. I will update the thread with results.
If you want hassle free delivery in the US, I recommend sticking with UPS for the time being.

what's a big deal with a form? It is basically an importer doc-it cost nothing. They only ask for it once-I did it for a competitors machine one time and then it was OK later on.
Our order was held by FedEx. They required our EIN. Perhaps due to size of order/dollar amount.
Now... What do I do with these stock S5 Fans???

You can use your SSN in place of EIN if you are a sole proprietorship or personal import.
I act as a corporation; so either way it gets tracked to my K1.

Good to know.If you want hassle free delivery in the US, I recommend sticking with UPS for the time being.
All they need to know is that it is a computer.
FedEx called me today on my S5 shipment. I told them it was a specialized computer. He said he needed to know if it was FCC compliant. When I told him it was not a wireless device, he quickly was happy.
Not that the FedEx guy probably cares. He just wants an answer that lets him get the box moving again in his system.

I want both my mod gives me both I borrowed my friend IR thermometer and that's it. it costs me time and a few bucks! and I am not going to go crazy buying a c1 just for the cooling system mine does both I don't need water cooling I am not in a desert!!
all that cash is not practical for what these miners rake in!!!
6 months the S5 will be useless anyway!!!
C1 has today exactly the same useless value as 2x Antminer S3
I have already some C1 miners. I can make them to air-cooled C1 to sell , and leave the better parts for the construction of a water-cooled S5. Up to 4.6TH/s in a small housing.
Why should I not do it ?
I need to buy only a few SC-BC2 antiminner cooling kit http://shop.syscooling.com/goods.php?id=4
mine cost me 5 bucks and a donation of a delta fan from a good friend and time and my s5 runs fine.
good idea but why are you combining hash boards knowing S5 has BM1384 chips and c1 and s3 has 1382 chips the power draw will be to much. Not unless you get free electric like I do.
You are bound to get hidden issues if you combine those boards It would need to be thoroughly tested by an engineer that deals with ASIC. It may run fine according to you but its really not.
but if you have the spare boards just make sure the s5 Controller can handle the voltage load and that the pins on the ribbon cables have the same pin configurations otherwise your S5 will go up in smoke!!
I saw pics of it already but a don't believe it anybody can use Photoshop or adobe. I would have to be there in person to see it run with my own eyes.
They made the S5 with fewer voltage buck converters this is one of the reasons its more stable and uses less power. I hate voltage Buck converters not unless there multistage like on a high end PC motherboard!!!
BITMAIN uses a cheap no frills version of them.

....
As you can see the results above in the pic. Also the noise level dropped from 75db to 62db.
..
Which Sound Level Meter it is measured?
---
old s5 temps with Silverstone f141???
----
new s5 temps
These tests, I'd like to read radiator temperature measured with an infrared thermometer.old s5 temps with Silverstone f141???
----
new s5 temps
Not the temperature sensor readings. These temperature sensor readings are true only with factory fan .
I posted along these lines in the thread dedicated to created a liquid cooled S5.
Not sure what the point of doing this is... I'm hashing on my S5 units pretty consistantly at 1200ish (some more, some a tad less) by simply using 1 replaced Delta AFB1212SHE fan.
I mean, factoring the time, materials, cost, to mod an S5 into a liquid cooled S5 - just doesnt seem worthwhile unless you can end up getting 1500ghash or even more.
Am I missing something?

I got a quiet bedroom miner. The pump makes more noise, if the fans.
