The antminer s6 gone have 4500 gh/s
Power 1000watts
I can not wait to order

What I find funny about this thread is he wasn't very far off about the next miner from Bitmaintech the S7 (4.86 Th/s 1210 W). It could have been a pure guess, but also could have been rumors of goals being set around Bitmain. I hope someone predicts the S8 as 10 Th/s 1500 W at the wall Grin

in the next few months.

S8 will be a big step for Bitmain as I think first we may see a 3 bay S7+ with 14-15TH.

S8 will then need a BM1386 and we are into uncharted territory as they probably the need to go straight to full custom on a 14/16nm Technology to get the speed & efficiency needed to make it worthwhile and be efficient enough after the halving. However agreed 10TH/s and 1500W giving 0.15J/GH sounds about right.

That said I would prefer to see a miner with 10TH/s taking 1200W, 0.12J/GH as you get a bigger choice of PSU's and the heat in their standard form factor is more manageable.

I think a S7+ makes sense first from past history. They easicly can do the S7+ one day if they decide to. So I think it is a easy extension.

S8 ... who knows not much talk as they are good at keeping stuff internal.

I would really dislike seeing a 3xS7 Frankenstein monster (again). A rectangle box form factor doing 7~8Th/s on 1400watts would be what i would like to see. (Maybe with a good PSU included for once?)

Then again it could be possible to buy individual "cubes" of S7+ which would probably 1200w~ as well but 6TH/s~ instead of 4~5TH/s.

yeah i dont think we will see anything new from them for a few months at least.. they still have used s5's and now the new s5+.. why release anything else now? makes sense to roll with these unless another manufacturer hits the market with new gear

Sure it does, its a great time to release new hardware soon. They can release some s7 running at 0.3J/GH or something and charge twice the $/GH to home miners that get raped on the electricity cost, but is still better ROI for them.

They keep their S5+ in their farm because they don't really care nearly that much about max efficiency since their electricity is dirt cheap. Meanwhile they incite miners to mine at their pool and they earn quite a bit from it since they keep all Tx fees in the blocks found.

They can sell a few PH of S7's and it wont affect the overall difficulty much, but they pocket all the money and a good portion of the added Hashrate is going to be on their pool anyways, so BAM, Win/Win for Bitmain.

Bitmain has some good brains for money making.

Bitmain's probably already got it but they're not going to sell it. Right now they are their own competition so why ship the good stuff when they can still charge up the butt for the old stuff what people are still satisfied to buy from them?

I think it's understood the S4+ is the S6, which makes perfect sense seeing as it was a rollback in technology and efficiency at a worse price instead of something actually newer, better or worth paying for like their even-number units tended to be.

these r just rumors ,this thread was started on 15th Jan still i cant find s6 in the market.

Of course, this is just a random wishlist thread when Bitmain already said the next unit was the S7, the S4+ and the S5+ fill that gap for now, apparently.

Me i'm guessing the S6/S7 will be in 0.3X efficiency range. There would be no point for a S6 at 0.44, that'd just be a S5+ enclosed in a shell, more shipping costs for fitting in U racks.

I would like to know the source of this, i have search a lot and don't find anything.

It sound too good to be real Tongue

The source is his imagination and it did not come true.

I'm sure it materialized in his mind. Apparently he also married Cindy Crawford Tongue

You will notice the month that was posted

. I would not put to much stock in it.

Not to mention I think they said skipping S6 and S7 will be their net gen.

I believe there will be a S6.

I believe there will be a water cooled model, 2.5 TH with 2*1000 Watt.

I am a believer:)

I think that the S5+ has also got the S6 covered.

funny they told me they werent doing an s6 design and where going to jump straight to an s7 design with a new chip.

Ah, yeah that's about right. It'd be one step better than S5 density. I'd really like to see the 2.8TH 1KW machine though. Or what would be pretty close to it, an S2 Upgrade Kit.

Does that S5 cost include the 1800W worth of PSU? And then there's the markup for increasing efficiency 15%.

I'm not sure where the 208 chips is coming from. With the same setup as the S4+ (204 chips, 4 units 3p17s) except using BM1384 chips you could see 2.8TH off a 1KW PSU about 0.37W/GH wall. Chuck six units behind Bitmain's fancy new PSU and you'd get 4.2TH from about 1.6KW wall power and they could probably build 'em for under $1100, not sure what retail price would be.

I did some bad math. I meant to say 192chips, 4x 3p16s, but whatever it was just a fun guess to bump the thread.

I'm going to put my guess in:

Antminer S6
208 Chips
3250GH/s
1430watts
0.44w/GH
$1200
Release right after Sfards' unit

Right now, you can get 3x S5's:

3300GH/s
1800watts
$1100

I think they'd need to sell the S6 for less, otherwise, you can just get 3x S5's..

Btw, I spoke to them recently and S7 is scheduled for July, no info on the S6 though.
