I Monday received shipment confirmation of two S5 from Bitmain and Tuesday verified they've completed sort in Shenzen for EMS shipment to me on the US East Coast. Current plan is to replace the fan with S3 push/pull, modest underclock, construct a metal cover for the top, and use a single Corsair MX750M (590W S5 spec, dual PCI-E and dual Molex-PCI-E cables and underclock being key). Am I overlooking anything that I shouldn't?

Me too Peamine, I have to check them all the time because there is no auto-restart feature if it get's below a certain hash.

Past 8 days I have been hashing with my two S5 systems.
They would almost daily, at stock settings, would fail to around 600GH per system.
Temperature is 38c on the readings, 350 frequency, 850 watt Gold EVGA power supply with 4 unique rails.
At first I thought it was the firmware that needed to be updated, but after updating the firmware yesterday it seems to at least increase the chance, as now one is entirely offline and the other is hashing at 600GH.
Multiple power cycles and one of them isn't staying online for more than 1 or 2 hours, though both were hashing at 1160GH for a couple hours after a reboot.
I never recorded temperatures above 40C (It's very cold here in a large unheated building).
What should I do? Do they need to be RMA'ed? Are others having this issue? Is there a script I can run that will auto restart or power cycle them when hash rate is this low or not responding at all?
I'm ready to buy 10-20 S5's instead of a Farm of SP20, but so far the S5 is not reliable enough for a personal farm, even with just 2 compared to my SP20 farm.
Let me know what to do.

Hum... time to go buy some EVGA from newegg!
Newegg has a pretty decent deal on the evga supernova 1300 today. $159 with a $30 rebate makes it $129. I ordered one up to replace my corsair cx750m's These particular corsair PSU's were discounted refurbs so that may be why my S5 shut down after a couple hours. I swapped it with another cx750m that I had on an S3, all good so far.
Limit of 5
Rebate is limited to one per household
Yes that too.

Received my S5 unit today, and the fan failed after 10 minutes of use.
Anyone else have failed fan?

It went up. I bought when it was cheaper.. the duty/brokerage was rough though. 130 CAD for 2 units

Did anyone noticed bitmain have increased shipping costs for S5 (was like 50 and now it is 80)
Hi, the shipping cost will be automatically calculated by the system when you place the order in our official website.
On the day of S5 release it was ~50USD and now it is 80USD for the same address.
Shipping is sometimes subsidised by Bitmain, sometimes not. So shipping price may vary as that changes.

Out of curiosity, what weighting did you use when you measured the SPL of the fans?
what is SPL? I am not familiar with this term.
Why was this question asked? [The thread never got continued]. Short or long weighting should come out near identical, one just takes longer to get to the reading.
Nevermind, I thought you were referring to something else entirely. Hence my confusion.

So is a corsair cx750m not beefy enough for these? I have two S5 running on one corsair cx750m each (which only have two PCIe cables each that split to provide two plugs each for a total of four). I did have one unit shut off randomly after a couple hours of mining yesterday but I didn't pay attention to whether the PSU had shut off or just the S5. The S5 was power off though, no lights, no fan, nothing. Turning the PSU off and back on brought it back up and it has been running since. The other unit has been running the whole time.
So as I posted above, one CM750M is absolutely fine for 1x S5. Its unlikely you could get away with it on just one cable strand, but two cable strands is more than enough [and I've been running for weeks].
January 13, 2015, 06:17:33 PM
CoolMaster 1000W PSU will be 1 x S5. 2 will die or see lots of lovely Xs
Also, Corsair cx750m will work for now, but may experience high failure rate about 3-4 weeks into it or later, and HX850 is recommended.
S5 is out in the market for only 2 weeks. So, you may not experience much failure yet but we have used CX750 in heavy miner deployments in the past and seen what it does. (360w-400W sure, but not when it is pulling 590-600W constant)
PSU, please remember, you will need minimum 2 rails of 12v with TICK GAUGE PCI-E cables or else, it will get hot and may melt or may catch fire.
