Just saw this on my tracking from UPS "The receiver must pay the duties or taxes due on the package."

how much do I have to pay? Im in Oregon, generally never had to pay any duties or taxes.. but never had anything sent this value before

This is really pissing me off!!! I ordered nine (9) units myself. I hope I don't have to pay a hell of a lot on top of what I already paid. I would like to know what the tax/duties is for? Damn government.

WOW!!! I've never seen this before either. How many units did you purchase? How much do they say you owe in duties/taxes?

i only ordered two... im not sure how much i need to pay.. im going to call them

I got the same thing on my UPS tracking. So, I logged in. It tells me I owe $308.09 CDN. Now that's a lot higher tax than another Cdn (guitarplinker) paid. So I'm a bit surprised.

EDIT: I called UPS and asked what the shipper declared as the value. They indicated $2280+ CDN.

Difficulty will rise, but maybe not as much as we fear. I think any rigs older than 1 year will soon have to shut down. You might see some S3 and S3+ stay in the game for a few more months- but a person will need free electricity to keep those running much longer.

Maybe I'm way off base tho.

Mine was finally processed in California and is now heading to Toomim Bros in Washington.

I'm sending mine to Toomim Bros also so post your experiences when things get set up for you. I placed my order on 9/6 so nothing for me yet.

Well it arrived and they set it up fast and it's running right now reporting 4.6ish at Eligius.

I'm impressed with Toomim so far.

I had some SP30s being hosted by them and have nothing but good things to say about them. Really prompt response time to any questions/issues I had.

So it looks like the first day of sales for the first batch have arrived and the difficulty hasn't skyrocketed so I'm hopeful difficulty's not gonna be too crazy.. well until the SP50s are released..

At freq 300 power and hash are almost exactly 1/2; so no apparent underclock gains.

Not willing to ssh and change voltage settings yet. These have a lot more hw errors than I expected, but within reason; 0.03 %

Trying to find the lowest fan speed that keeps temps below 60c.

Do not think that voltage adjustment will be possible by any means except reducing the 12V supply. Looking forward to hearing results from the first person to try this?

I have a lot of EVGA 1300 G2's so I swapped 1x single pcie for a branch pcie and used a $6 splitter on another of the single pcie.

I would recommend getting your splitters on amazon before they sell out. You will need 2x of them in addition to the standard G2 cable set.

Have you tried just using 2/3 pcie connectors on each board?

with spondoolies back in the game, i hope to see a price war again Grin

. in my opinion the s-7 price was an insult. i've got free electricity and still did not like the numbers for roi.. this is a game changer for the best

I wouldn't get my hopes up on this. I expect Spondoolies will price their SP50 to look reasonable in terms a comparison to the S7. I don't think they will try and undercut the S7 hardly at all. Considering they have an efficiency advantage, they may well price above a commensurate number of S7's.

Unless and until we see a price and ship date, this is by no means "a game changer" (IMHO).

I tested a bunch of different settings; I recommend:

Fan % Freq Watts TH/s Error %
30 612 1237 4.85 0.025

Measured 76 dB at 30% fan speed; surprisingly quiet.
These run about 5C cooler than an S5+ 1/3 with the same power consumption.
This allows you to run the fan at a lower speed.

I used an EVGA 1300 G2 PSU so you should get slightly better w/GH with a server PSU.

0.255 w/GH with a Gold PSU Cool

cool...I will be running mine at a "fullzero"TM settings first.
did you split a couple of EVGA connectors or went with two/board?

Could you double check the frequency? Looks like a possible typo?

My S7 Got delayed due to missing information I wont be getting it until tomorrow Sad

What shipping company? I'm kinda curious if the missing information ones are all same companies or different.

There have not been a ton but a few who have posted needing to contact shipper.

You can software control the fan speed Grin

Thank you Bitmain!

will you check if you can get better efficiency at lower settings, please?

I ordered a unit the first day with shipping to California via FedEx. It's already in Oakland (an hour away) and will be delivered by 10:30 AM PDT.

That's less than 4 hours from now!

It's also my wife's birthday, but she won't see this as a present Wink

yeah, especially since you would have to blanket it with pillows or foam Grin

The S7 is here! Thank you FedEx!

Luckily it's destined for a data center, so we won't hear it.
