Topic: ANTMINER S5: 1155GH(+OverClock Potential), In Stock $0.319/GH & 0.51W/GH - page 43. (Read 451032 times)

Ya'll need to start using ºC man.... What's up with all the ºF sillyness?

Granted, they used the exact same price i predicted here, which is all in all suspicious, and having just 2 units available has all kind of red flags over it... please, anyone reading this, don't buy it until we have confirmation from the horses' mouth that this is official.

what is sad is I could probably run the beast in my basement already have 2 titan(s) at 2500 watts....don't care about the noise in that I'm mostly on 2nd floor bedroom etc
no one else in the house (large house)

cooling might be an issue right now the below arrangement of a shutter exhaust fan works well and a pusher fan (see my imgur pics of rig below) both those fans use 10 buck
usd a month in elec or 20 bucks total well worth the cost

my setup

but again using 3300 usd as a price and the gh and watts and 0 % for the pool and 13c kwh ...main it is an ugly ugly return on www.tradeblock.com calculator

but even it you did take a chance on this toy that is a lot of elec costs a month and heat on top of the cost of the unit.....summer hard to move that much heat
and no idea what the temp would be for such with the two titans it gets to 90F in basement on near 100F days with the fans (which always run full out 24/7)

winter you may get a lot back in gas heat...in my case with 1 titan I got back 35 bucks a month on budget in gas savings

but my elec costs at 13c kwh for this would be at 3436 watts is about 321.61 usd per 30 days for electric OUCH! add the fans make it an even 350 more or less usd a month

and i'm assuming 3300 for the unit more then likely it would be much more then that

no way in any form does this work for using in any manner data hall or home

hell I'd have problems buying the 3 psu's for the beast and paying electric etc if I won the thing in a contest!!!! and it was completely FREE!!!!

oh well it is asic porn at least

they should split this thing in 3 units to call it S5+, now it is more like S6 minus PSU

yea you're right, i think 3400Watt isnt for home user..

won't matter for home users only will work in places with 2 or 3c kwh elec data halls at best and likely like most bitmain products over priced from the get go
and price drops just behind what it is practical to ever make ROI imho

there are still many people who do not believe in the truth, hehe ...
Bitmain S5 + coming soon ..

i got the pict from bitmain official weibo account
here http://weibo.com/bitmain

thats verified account

If I was to have one of these at home  I would want to try underclocking and undervolting so we immediatly hit 2 issues.
First have Bitmain by luck or judgement sorted it's ability to run on reduced voltage?
Second how on earth are you going to easily get an efficient 3500W at probably around 10V. Good news is that voltage will have gone up slightly because of the increased chain length from 15 to 16.

We will take more pictures and make a review when back to work at Monday .

Picts look fake, Bitmain is quiet... 

the bold is why we no longer get gear.

Many home miners can do 2 cents to 5 cents due to a 'cheap' power niche.  I can supply 2k watts at 3.4 cents in the summer and at 2.4 cents in the winter.

In both cases the heat my 4 s-3's give off are a bonus.  as the office they run it is too cold in the summer due to excessive ac and too cold in the winter due to inadequate

heat. 

I know of 2000 homes using baseboard electric heat.  That is correct. everyone of them would make out with a quiet set of miners.   The only one that was really good was the avalon 4.1 it was a small sale at high prices.   Due to the fact that  the bold quote above is what is being done by the builders of asic to people that could use the miners.

I do not blame or hate them it is a business model that is working for asic builders.  They will continue to do it.

Hahhhh.. Sadly i have to disagree. This is exactly hitting the market. Home mining is mostly dead in scale. There is little point working on highly optimized technology for maximum efficiency yada yada. Why make a high tech miner and mass produce it, when its just going to devalue their own mines. Why spend so much time and money comming up with technological edge ASIC?

Its much more efficient to mass produce cheap asic and slap them on electricity at 3-4cents/kwh. Too bad for people paying 8+cents/kwh is probably what they think. ^_^"

China style. Cheap Mass Production.

thats what im saying, bitmain is missing the market here..

make a 16x2 BM1384 miner, that pretty much copies the s3 in case and fans.

they would use less power then the s3 and ultra quiet..

according to the chart on the first page, a 16x2 board machine running the 13.75 would be 440 GHS @ only 150W

not to mention you wont be making much more btc then if you had 7 s5s running at stock speed.

you could probably get away with making the same amount with 5 or 6 OC'd s5s.

The heck with this 3 unit set of S5+'s for practical use. I just want to be able to get a S3++, or one of these single S5+ miners. 

It may be real  but why does itop have a price for it ahead of bitmaintech?

3299 plus shipping  and   it needs 3 evga 1300 psu's >>>>>> a guess


In the USA any gear over 2500 for import is a hassle.   so if this is the new gear and it is 3299 plus 100 to ship  it is 3399.


  I can't use it.  And it will be really fucking loud.

im sure its very hot, in that pictures, bitmain using 6 Fans
i still thinking, i have antminer s5 with 1 fan was very loud, how about 6 fan?  

if they are using the s5 chips, those would have to be some pretty high cfm fans to cool it.

the s5 has heatsinks twice the size and they run pretty hot.

hew pretty though hardware..
look very good
