Would you be able to hold on with people reporting on this "screaming" sexy gear?
TBH, it's the "screaming" part that ultimately gave me pause this round Sad That, and I can't make the numbers work out for ROIing on these before the next block halving.

Will be looking towards underclocking reports and how quiet these units can be made to run. Might be interested in a unit should they become more economically and sonically reasonable.

We need some pricing competition for Bitmain. Badly.

The new Antminer S7 have been released with a much better power efficiency, so I will be hosting it for 50 USD/month.

Bitmain sent me 100$ coupons for S7 Antminers, so if you are interested in my hosting service I will let you use them.

Ordered 6 of these bby's, probably will regret it.

But the high I get when I open them up, getting them online.. With this running in the backround: https://gifsound.com/?gif=i.imgur.com/eOTOeyg.jpg&v=mzDVaKRApcg

Priceless!! Wink

Thank you Bitmain.

You know there are cheaper highs in the long run, like crack or heroin?  Cheesy

so consesus is 3 PSUs at least 500W would suffice?

500W PSUs almost never have 3 PCIe connectors and bitmain also asks for a separate PSU for controller IF multiple PSUs are used (you supposed to first turn on hashing boards PSUs, then controller PSU).

You could just plug the controller to the last PSU you turn on. Powering the last blade + controller at the same time will not cause any issues.

you are probably right, but here is what they said verbatim:
"If you use different PSU for hash boards and control board, please make sure to power the hash boards first and the control board only after the hash boards have been powered."

In any case Corsair 500 has only one already split PCie cord. Will it work?

It is annoying as I want 1 more and I am waiting for the first one to show up as paid before I order the second one.

I never place orders over 2500 from china as I had a few tie up in customs for weeks.

So I figured I will place them  2 or 3 hours apart.  SInce they have had this cancel your order error happen for close to 2 years to hundreds of buyers I knew to wait before the second order.

So if this sells out before they tell me the first one clears I won't be able to order a second one. Pretty annoying.

That is irritating.

Interesting strategy breaking the orders up to avoid customs delays.

It's been a while since I've ordered from Bitmain. Do they declare the full purchased dollar value to customs? I thought that they declared less (like the materials value or something).

Maybe the hang up in customs you saw was just a random event. There was a warning when I ordered indicating that spot checks can result in a delay of a couple of weeks.

I'm planning on buying more too, but I'm splitting the order because I don't have enough BTC in my wallet Wink  I guessed wrong about the price and underestimated. Transfers from Coinbase take forever, and I don't have a high enough instant buy limit to make a difference.

Maybe I can scrounge up a coupon from someone while waiting. I'll probably end up with new orders in batch 2.

This has been a common error way back to the s-1 sales.  After a few hours they should have it fixed.

 I have had them fix it for me on s-1's s-3's s-5's  and hopefully in a little bit on s-7's.

I want more and now must wait for the first one to clear.

Same thing happened to me. But rather than just wait for it to clear, I started a support incident.

You'd think that after all this time they'd get their payment system right.

Bought 4, so excited!   Cheesy

you're welcome, mr money bags  Grin

Trading green paper fiat currency for low w/GH FTW.  I figure that we'll hash all 4 for a while, then sell 2 as the HW value tapers to hit ROI and then hash the other 2 until the wheels fall off.
