When are they releasing S6 and S7? we need bigger hash rate and compact to reduce the shipment charges per Gh/s
Not that sure it is happening until the late summer Sept 10th at the least.

Looks like this thread need to do a 90 day vacation maybe a 150 day vacation since s-6's will not show up sooner then summertime. Or early fall.
I would agree with it could be a while. I still think btc being so low has something to do with it, companies have to do R+D smarter not faster.
I think for a little bit our options are S4+ or S5. Which is a interesting mix. I was surprised with the 220, I see this as good for future releases showing Bitmain is not scared to go up to 220.
I'm also happy to see Bitmain not being too concerned about telling those who are serious with mining to move to 205 to 240 range. I do like the capability to still use rigs at 120 during the winter. This means I can move a rig to a bedroom or living room that needs heat without concern of having a 205 to 240 volt receptacle.
yeah home miners will need to up their game by having 1 or more 240 volt receptacles.
I now have a 30 amp and a 20 amp circuit . These were 120 volt dedicated receptacles for subwoofer amps that I installed in my home 17 years ago. I now did a very simple switchover and made them 240 volts.
Of course they are not in the best spots of my home but I will get around that in due time. For now with the hot weather approaching I will keep mining low.
Sounds like a plan.
I did have six 20 amp/120 volt circuits at one time. I switched everything over to five 30 amp/240 volt circuits with PDU's. I doubled my available watts by doing this. Everyone else should do it as well if possible.
I think I was the one who pointed you in the 240v/PDU direction.
Looks like you took it and RAN LOL. Love your setup.And I appreciate you doing so, Sir!!! THUMBS UP!!!
Your assistance and knowledge played a large role in helping me get my setup to where it is at the moment. Thank you for taking the time to provide mining knowledge!
Kind regards,
David
Glad I could help, especially seeing what your project has evolved into!
Thank you, Sir.
Although, it's kind of a shame it will all be torn down in a few months when I move to Washington State. It has been quite a learning experience. This also gave me an opportunity to learn about dealing with the heat, ventilation, networking, etc... It has been a lot of fun thus far. I still have a lot to learn. Especially, when I take this to a much larger scale in Washington State.
I was thinking about moving out to Washington State in June. I was approximately 80% sure I was moving out there in June due to this Jade Helm 15 thing. Now, it has reduced to 20% chance of going in June and 80% chance of going between August and October. I'm about 95% sure I'm moving to Washington State regardless. It's just a matter of "when."
If you have not heard about "Jade Helm 15," this is the video I recommend you listen to in its entirety: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j4kaNjvRxIw&feature=share

U might be right! >50%
maybe it will come out almost on the same time with s7...

Not really a groundbraking revolution this new S4+
Old chips, loud, more W/GH than the existing S5 but a rack mount...
Well, i´ll go with the S5 either the S6 is going to be "groundbraking" in terms of chips and power use

Antpool showed it temporary went up to 66.7 PH. Are there any S6's in this jump? I'm guessing not but I hope so.

DAMN... That was a hell of a jump. From approximately 56 PH/s to 66 PH/s. That was definitely a hell of a jump!
I thought so as well. I have no idea what caused it or what was going on. But I took a screenshot so people would believe me it happened.
I could throw out all kinds of speculation, but at the end of the day that's all it would be is speculation.
It has got to be S4+ rigs that were tested for a short time span in my opinion.
S4+ available for shipping within a week. 2,570 GH/s (2.57 TH/s) @ 1,480 watts. Stated .58 watts per GH/s. PSU's are not the same. They were designed by Bitmaintech.
946 USD ( 4.218 BTC )

what's the point of this miner? i mean s5 is 0.51 per giga and you can find it for 1/3 of the price(used) of this new miner
I suppose it's for those who are looking for a form factor suitable for a server room. It depends on your situation I suppose. I still have fourteen (14) 3,000 watt server grade PSU's with breakout boards sitting around waiting to be used on rigs without PSU. I have to upgrade power first though. I'm actually seriously thinking about keeping the money I would spend to upgrade my power at the house to fund my transportation to another location with cheaper power and upgrade the power there if needed. I will have another $20,000 to invest in rigs the middle of June. I think I will hold onto it and wait for approximately $10K or $20K more before my move to another location. I need at least 140 TH/s to start in another location I have in mind. It's just a matter of time.
Back to subject... It really depends on your situation. Those who are just starting up a mining operation may want them. I'm in wait and see mode at the moment while waiting on a bit more funds to start right. I only have 45 Th/s at the moment.

soon, will show you the speculated new hardware preview... Please wait for a bit longer for the official announcement.
really ? you guys are going to put out the s-6?I would have bet 5 btc you would not release it until July or August.
it will come out before june. s5 is out for too much time, so s6 must be around the corner, imo
bitmain going spondoolies, noise wise
I know you are not complaining about the noise at all. I'm just chiming in that I wish others would not complain about the noise. This is part of the life of a bit coin miner. If one does not like the noise, they need to drop out of this business.

I don't know. The smart thing to do in my opinion would be as soon as possible if it is more power efficient than the S5. The sooner the better. Waiting longer only shortens the sell life span of the S6 similar to the S4. If the S6 has a built in PSU like the S4, with similar efficiency to the S5, it would behove them to release the S6 ASAP. If the S6 has "much" better efficiency than the S5 [Like .40 watts or lower], it would be best for them to wait for more S5's to be sold before releasing the S6.
