Anyone else notice this for S7 specs from the interview?

Quote
The S7 brings mining to a new level with Power consumption to Hash rate ratio. The density of the S7 at Chip count per device: 162x Hashrate: 5,200 GH/s (5.2 TH/s) Power consumption at wall: 1300W @ 90% PSU efficiency Power

Typo or updated figure I wonder?

It's Bitcoinist, the article is full of typos and formatting gaffes. That's their normal way of doing whatever it is they're doing (certainly not journalism).

Having said that, the chip had an announced hashrate of 32.5 GH/s, so 162 of those would be 5200+. Official specs list 93% PSU efficiency, Bitcoinist lists 90%. Perhaps the journo tried to do some misguided math.

Typo or updated figure I wonder? It would maintain the same 0.25 J/Gh as the released specs, maybe that is over-clocked?

You might want to take a look at an interview with Bitmain head chief:

Hmmm so apparently this is meant to be a home miner but I just can't believe that with the DB and the entry price, also the Ant router is going to have the newest chip in it, that is quite interesting as well.

"The AntRouter is its final stage of development. The first generation will use the BM1384 chip. " Not the new 1385!

Mine for a Bit
Well done Bitmain for the new miner. Hopefully somebody will compete to lower your prices as i think this is selling for too much.

WELL we have competition now:)  Like i said you know they were dumping this year old tech on us as s7.. If Bitfury is at 16nm  Then Bitmain is aswell.. Dont be a fool and buy this machine unless you have free power.. The hashrate is going to explode or price will drop to where 16 nm is only thing profitable.. Again unless you have free power.

Good luck with your investments

bitfury is not going to expand the hashrate from 400ph to 1000ph.  but it sounds good.

I still say get yourself an s-7 asap not a shit ton of s-7's but a few of them if you can.

Time will tell if my guess is better then yours.

I dont mind be wrong from time to time.Smiley  But you def cant discredit this info.. It wont take much of a net diff increase or price to fall to screw anyone of any chance of roi on this miner that doesnt have free power. All im saying is Buyer Beware This is a hobby miner only.. If you just want to support the network its cheaper to run a node im sure..

Note:  The chips were in production in Feb 2015 and then announced again in Jun 2015.  This is a lot of talk about a product that is still mythical.

Bitfury makes their miners for data centers. Almost no one in US can use those miners because of the power draw, just like the S5+. That is why I like Bitmain so much, they create miners that the home user can actually run. To bad Bitfury does not make two different models, one for home users and one for data centers. Competition makes companies improve faster and reduces prices for public Smiley

Mine for a Bit
Hi,

I've just made a video about bitmain antminer s7. Not a review because it is not shipping yet...

https://youtu.be/BXnHmDXTq5U

thanks

.03 J/ghs....is this correct .31J/9.5GHs?Huh   This is GREAT if true.  This would far exceed the capabilities of the 0.25 J/GHs of the Antminer S7.  Are my numbers correct?  Would it not be more EFFICIENT to purchase the Gekkoscience Compact?  By the way, thanks for the youtube video.

I'm looking forward to Phil's review of the S7 unit and his tweaks to it. If BITMAIN is smart, they'll send him his ahead of time to get the review out in the wild. Until then I'll wait and see his feedback.

It is now official. I have been given the go ahead from my wife to buy a total of 5 S7's along with 5 APW3-12-1600-B2 PSU's.

I had one coupon which I have used. I understand if people are sceptical about handing over coupons to new forum posters but I still would like to ask graciously if anyone is willing to donate to me, they can do so by sending it to user name Coinbeast.

I am a paranoid miner and only one of my friends even knows that I mine Bitcoin. I have not participated much on Bitcoin forums ever since posting on Bitmain talk where my user name absolutely and positively and without any chance of ever being able to add a custom username had to be the email address I have registered to Bitmain... e.g

[email protected]

One day people will do anything they can to find early adopters and do what ever it takes to get their coin.

the components between the asics, look higher than the asics?

can the wb lay on the asics or will it lay on the other components?

thx!


I think R207 is higher, then asic chip.

I see. I bought those S5 cooling kits when I intended to keep my S5's. Later decided it was a good time to sell them right before the release of the S7. So now I have $1000 worth of useless water cooling LOL...


The length of S7 is 301 mm

The length of S5+ is only 275 mm

I did some extensive photo shopping of the pics from the S5+ board over the S7 ones on Bitmains products page and have      
decided to not risk it and set up some evaporative cooling.

the problem is bitmaintech self mines.  So  1 s-7 uses the same power as 2 s-5's

you can bet dollars to donuts that they are swapping the s-7 for the s-5 and have been doing it for a month in their mines.

so we are having hash jump a lot.  so also realize that bitmaintech and bitfury can  add  100ph if they want and don't since the have no need to get into an arms war.


I have no doubt that BITMAIN has already swapped out all their old gear for S7s.  You can see that the hash rate has gone up almost 5% already.  I wonder how hard it would be for BITMAIN to fire up enough of these to take over 50% of the hashing power.

We really need like a marketplace thread for coupon's.  It's starting to take away from thread.    With the amount asking and drama that comes with some I suggest we make a thread in marketplace (or other if better) and have just deal with coupon's.

I just think this thread should be about the product and not turn into a coupon thread.

I'm in, I agree with you. It should be a subforum dedicated to coupons and freebies.
I am looking for a coupon too.
