Antpool is shrinking in last few days. I wonder if next gen miners will be coming online soon.

People complain about the 4000RPM "stock S5 fan" being loud - but that 5500RPM version should be good for COOL.

Which fan do u recommend for replacement for cooling S5. Original one has broken down.
I personally like these: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00HQ18UDA?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o06_s00
How do U attach that one to S5 ? Do you remove casing ?
Yes, the casing is removed. And this fan is RPM controllable. I'm not sure why the casing is on there. I'm not familiar with any setup that would use the fan with this casing. For all I know, it may just be to protect the fan during shipping.
By the way... I've bought over a dozen of these fans from this seller on Amazon. They are a good seller. Free Shipping for that fan as well.
I use them in S4's, S3's and S5's. I bought more of them to replace factory fans in the SP20's as well. Of course, I had to buy a different connector to be able to connect this particular fan to the connector in the SP20's... http://www.ebay.com/itm/161350482183?_trksid=p2060353.m1438.l2649&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT

Maybe any link or type of fan. Must be RPM controlable ?
Any link would be useful. Tnx in advance.

Anything in the 200ish CFM range should work, perhaps down to 150CFM for quieter at the cost of running a little warmer.

In regards to cleaning, the debris was caked on, so an alcohol solution was needed and wiped each blade. Took about 20 minutes or so but they are nice and shiny now.
Didn't mess with the thermal paste.

if your DHGate store didn't keep refusing my VALID credit card
DHGate isn't Bitmain, its an online marketplace like Amazon or ebay. If your credit card is failing, then your card company is rejecting the transaction.

And for the home miners, a good ole' electrolux vacuum

Cleaning the heat-sinks are no easy task either.
Real miners have compressors for that purpose - you need to blow all dead critters from those heatsinks and fans once in a while anyway, at least before selling them on eBay
I've seen a pressure washer used once too although I wouldn't recommend that.
But receiving dirty "new" equipment if effing annoying, I agree with that part.
have compressor clean of my s5(about 5 bar), dust, insect and friend went away but stain still there.
seller has to do more effort to make it look like new, if used.

Also received some obviously used S5 units about a month and half ago. They are at least performing at their rated hash rate, but still should be listed at the very least "used".

One very early batch I ordered when S5 was first sold, run around 10c cooler in the exact same environment, and have less dust on them than the "new" ones ordered. No cleaning have been done to them either.

Did you just clean heat sinks or repasting to? Cleaning heat sinks is not terrible in itself.
But after working on a C1 and 4 boards with I can say thermal paste is a lot of work. If you clean it properly and then do new paste just takes a long time.

The normal English definition don't always apply within the realm of Bitcoin. "New" doesn't mean unused. It probably means not previously sold, and comes with a warranty. "Pre-order" sometimes means you have invested in the company. It doesn't always mean you are a customer. It might also mean "you are a fool".

Talk about signature campaign spam and necro posting ....
If any rig is twice as fast as another, not only that, but uses half the energy to deliver that hash rate compared to the other, then it is as clear as daylight that it has to be, arguably, twice as expensive, if not more.
EDIT: And no, I refuse to feed the troll.

If they were released at the same time... then yes it would be true. It was mentioned "Very last S3+ (brand new) they were selling for around 200USD" so it's been quite a while since there were brand new S3+. So I'm assuming were talking about two different points in time.
I could be wrong but I don't think S3+ and S5 were selling at same time. So variables such as difficulty among other things is a factor. (Not sure on S3++ it might have been selling at same time as S5).
S3++ was S3 + that i remeber was not
but I don't think bitmain ever sold any S3++ to the gen public you had to catch those on a ebay sells and had to notice it . July 28, 2015, 04:48:25 PM
