Stock fan produces ~69db, which is not typically tolerable in the house (apart from basement, attic, garage, shed)
Fan play to have as much hash as possible while maintaing low dB:
~30C ambient
1. Noctua 3000 PWM ($24.5, 110CFM, up to 3000rpm, just 41dB) in push position: ~59-61C at 325mhz, 1070Gh; less stable at 350mhz.
2. Scythe Ultra KAZE ($15.3, 130CFM, 3000rpm, 46dB) in push position via molex adapter-worse than Noctua, temp rising close to 65C at 325mhz, discontinued. Strange result as this fan has nominally higher CFM than Noctua.
3. Noctua in push, Scythe in pull (connected to molex through included adapter), up to 337.5 mhz is stable (1100 Gh).

Conclusion: adding Scythe ($15) in pull might be not worth it as it adds just ~30gh.
I simply taped Scythe to back because could not find proper screws yet.

Question: anybody knows what are the characteristics/dimensions of the machine screws Bitmain is using for fans? They seem to be in between 3 and 4mmX42mm, but I wasn't able to find such screws easily. They are not 3X40mm for sure. Anybody have a link?
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.
Sound pressure level. It's the dBs you got.

For the S5 what is the recommended worker difficulty. I have been using 2048. Is that high enough?
1024 should be good enough. 2048 is probably too high.

If there are no rejected or/and stale shares, then why not to use 2048?..  Roll Eyes

Very cool dart. Must have taken some work to set that up.

Next you could measure Wattage, and BTC value and graph profitability over time Smiley

Is there a way to have the miner not hash during certain times of the day?
At the simplest idea of mine, was to hook up one of those AC timers that kills the power during certain times and then restores it at others.

Thats a very noble way and most effective.
You could also write a script that kills cgminer (and cgminer monitor) during your chosen downtime but ensure it is started during your chosen uptime. (don't ask me how to do it 'cause I do not know AND you've already got a good solution!)

Great idea!  Could go even farther and use different frequencies at different times.  It's colder at night would be nice to have night freq, and day freq.

That was step two haha, once summer hits, to have variable frequencies.
So far I've only used the web interface, I assume I can SSH with the same root/root login on port 22 as well, then run various cgminer commands as needed?
Is there a software that could neatly schedule this and is scalable?  I was thinking for one or two I could just have them as local scripts on the machines, but would be more fun to have them all talk to a central computer or site that would report their temps, hash speed, frequency, on/off status etc, and allow global changes.

Also I haven't upgraded the firmware on both of my S5's and so far haven't had any issues with them not hashing properly.  Once I experience an issue, will probably try out updating the firmware Smiley




I just spent a few days setting up some pulling of stats from my Antminer S5 and S1. I am using Nagios via Open Monitoring Distro. And pnp4nagios which creates rrdtool based graphs.

To retrieve the stats I have a cronjob running on Nagios which is scheduled to ssh to antminer run cgminer stats & summary commands, Outputting to text file. Then the cronjob scp’s all the created outputs for Nagios to parse in a script I created.


When I run my check_antminer.sh Nagios script it generates this output;

./check_antminer-stats.sh
Code:
S5 OK  | S5_TEMP1=60;;;; S5_TEMP2=58;;;; btc_diff=43971662056.08957672;;;; S5_Blocktime=1421119169.052417;;;; S5_GHS=1067.02;;;; S5_Time_Elap=95407;;;; S5_Rejected=95;;;; S5_Accepted=25014;;;; S5_Discarded=73513;;;; S5_Diff_Accept=23485451.29781746;;;; S5_Reject_percent=0.3846;;;; BTCHash=101801000325.0000

I have included some graphs of the first few days of pulling stats.

Edit: My next step is to customize the graphs to include several stats on the same image and tweak the formatting.

Wondering why I have not received tracking on batch 4 yet?  Anybody get tracking yet, they were to ship out on the 12th.
You can go to UPS and track by reference using your order number. Mine is on the way, just no emails from Bitmain and no update of status on their website.

Is the order number the PO number? Mine is still not shown as shipped, confirmed payment on 1/9.

    Wednesday, 01/14/2015, By End of Day

Last Location:
    Arrived - Shenzhen, China, Monday, 01/12/2015

Shenzhen, China    01/12/2015    23:20    Arrival Scan

   01/12/2015    19:33    Pickup Scan
China    01/12/2015    1:46    Order Processed: Ready for UPS

It will be in my possession in 2 days? LOL. I'm about 1 day of flying time away and then it has to clear customs and then make it to my town. Fat chance in 2 days. Believe it when I see it.


My last S5 was shipped Sunday and I had it in Indiana on Tuesday

OK. Hope you are right. Anytime I have ordered from China to Canada it always gets held up at Canadian Customs for a day or two.

Ok maybe it will be longer for you then. Mine goes to AK and clears customs there then to KY then Indy then to me in Northern Indiana. My S1's was the same way, fast delivery!

I will qualify it and say this is the first time I have ordered from Bitmain.

Can we used more that one coupons per order
Or must used one coupon per s5 order ?
It's one coupon per machine.

So if you order 3 x S5's you can use 3 coupons.
