Why not run the fans at 32%? I have 3 4.66 units, 2 running at 28% fan and 1 at 32% fan in basement which is 67-69 degrees. All 3 are exhaling into my forced hot air house heating system with fan running 24x7. All 3 units are running 49-55c OC'ed to 600 and getting 4,850Ghz hash. I'm using 3 EVGA 1300 G2's, one for each miner and 1 CX750M for the 3 controllers. Have had this setup for 2 months now now with no issues. The HVAC does a good job sucking all the hot air and circulating throughout my house, minimal heating from GAS required, maybe 2-4 hours per week that my furnace is on. I've had the internet do out a couple times and no issues with heat, most of the tim they recover once ISP is back but I still soft reboot them.

Do you have your EVGA 1300 G2's stacked on top of each other? Don't they have fans on the top of them or am I just seeing it wrong?

Edit: NVM I see now one faces left one faces right and the third just sits on top.

Also note that the 4.66 batch OC'ed to 600 is same as 4.86 batches on hash rate and uses 1218 watts.

Set up my first S7 B9 (or B8 if they're the same) with the preinstalled 03 December 2015 firmware and a EVGA 1600w T2 (Titanium) power supply. I asked earlier what the settings should be if I wanted the draw at the wall 1,250watts max. Here's what I've found on 230v. Freq. 606.25M and fans at 32% (3,120rpm fan 01 and 3,000rpm fan 03). Ambient room temp. about 70 degrees F. S7 temps showing 61 degrees C. Kill-A-Watt showing 1,249 watts at the wall on 230v (this includes a NZXT Sentry LX fan controller and 5 additional case fans which uses about 20-25w). Getting above 4,080+ GH/S(avg) at 0.0000% HW errors so far. I don't condone setting the fans so low, just posting this to show what kind of wattage the S7 pulls at the wall at these settings. Dropping to 600M cuts about 14watts (4,020 GH/S).

Does anyone know the make and model number of the fan? Want to find out what the CFM is at 3,000 rpm. Has anyone tried to switch the fans like we were doing with the S3+ with the Silverstone FHP141 that moved 171 CFM at 2,000rpm? http://www.silverstonetek.com/product.php?pid=366&area=en

I believe these are the stock fans. These babies use 39 watts. Jet Blasters. For the size of the fan, they sure do move lots of air. I'm a big Noctua believer, but when Jet Blasters are installed no need to worry at all about temperatures.

2 are end to end with fans on opposing sides and 3rd one is on top, so 2 are vertical and 1 horizontal.

So just wanted to see what issues running the fan at 28-32 % might cause.

It has been such a rat race I've pretty much gave up on keeping exact track on my balances. More or less a hobby, but having lots of buys like this has been nice. I bought my first Bitcoins for under $20 when there weren't any public facing sites out there. I still visit the deep web. Way before kiddy sites like Coinbase ever existed. I may sell 5 or 6 perfectly running S5's, but I'm pretty cheap these days. I'd want a favorable offer. I'd even throw in a couple ATX power supplies. I thought there would be a buy/sell area in the mining area but can't seem to find it.

Sounds so weird. "Computer Hardware". Maybe when the new forum comes around, if it ever does they will re-organize some of these areas. Perfect place to buy/sell mining hardware would be a sub-forum in the mining forum area. That's where I was looking, thanks.

I bought Batch 1 S7's and yes, buying BTC would have been a better investment. But i had the BTC not the fiat. However:

1. Bitcoin would be worthless if noone "mines it" and processes the transactions. This also applies to the pools mining blocks and including no transactions.

2. I have not had to turn on my furnace yet this year, buying BTC would not keep my house warm. (Last couple of days it has been in the 30's F here and the house @ 75+F with a couple windows partially open.

I hope noone takes this the wrong way. I mostly am trying to make myself feel better about spending 8+ BTC on something selling for 2.4 BTC only 4 months later.

I will most likely be ordering another S7 soon. Cheesy

LOL. I've calculated it over and over again hundreds of times since they announced the price of the batch 1 S7 and in like 90% of the models it just doesn't make sense to buy a S7 for me. Even now at BTC2.4 it still doesn't make financial sense to get one but damn it I ordered one anyway and I'm still considering getting another one as well! Cheesy

I'll never understand this. There's actually proof you will lose money or not make it back and people still literally throw money out the door. If you really have an urge to knowingly lose money I can give you my mailing address. Send me a check.

guys I know its frustrating to order and then the price drops, but welcome to Bitmaintech I suppose. I recommend only ordering what ships RIGHT AWAY, everything else is pre-order and the price is bound to change for the best or the worse.

You mean "welcome to Bitcoin".

I believe that it was Xian01 who instead of buying a S7 bought BTC with fiat for the amount that the S7 cost when it first came out. I think he's probably pretty happy about his choice now but I could be wrong since the price had dropped a bit.

I think it was the other way around. He bought BTC at the yearly highs of around $475 on Coinbase instead of buying an S7. There is a photo of his transaction somewhere on this thread. So its shows how doing either can go either way.

I think you might be right. I didn't spend too much time trying to find that post and I couldn't recall BTC prices around that time. I guess we'd have to compare his BTC vs the amount of profit mined from the batch 1 S7 plus the potential resale value of the S7.

Interesting price adjustment from Bitmain.
Decided to do this again instead of buying an S7

Good luck everyone.

Boy did I pick a bad day to buy or what ? *sighs*

Had another urge to buy a miner. A Batch 3 S7.
Decided to do this again, instead.

PACMiC v4 looks to be a loser.
Good luck everyone.

And the buy button just went live, despite the large expense, I wonder how long until they sell out of batch #1?

Good luck to everyone buying these ! Looks like some great gear, but this time around, instead of buying a fancy new miner, I did the following and will HODL.

Lets see which will be the better investment 9 months down the road.

Thanks for sharing. I love mining and will continue to do it. But you do show a track record of pretty good investment's which I applaud you for.

Are there any losers you have not shown? It seems like you could have not been right 100 percent of time?

My order for Dec 26th is showing as shipped. The order for Dec 31st have not shipped yet. Seems like Bitmain is going based on fulfilling the earlier orders first which makes sense. Happy they are shipping on time / early.

Isn't it better to buy s7 ghs from hashnest since it's alot cheaper than purchasing the physical miner? And it will also be shipped to you eventually when they shut them down :-p

A lot cheaper how? 0.24cents/GH is not really any cheaper, its actually fairly more expensive and you pay a very high fee for the "hosting". The S7 goes for like .2 now, albeit before shipping + duty etc, and without a PSU.

Do they send you an email when they ship out your unit or does everybody just keep logging in to check their order status?

they send email. Also I find I get the email notice and updated on account a day or two after they have been shipped.

I would find out faster that my unit was sent by notice from my UPS account. If your using UPS you need to open a free account with them and once Bitmain prints out a label you will be notified. I also use this account to change the delivery to my local UPS store so I don't miss the delivery if nobody is home to sign for it. Just stop at the UPS store after work and show my ID to pick up the package.

Clever.
Before i started doing this, I once had a miner show up before I got an email that it was shipped. Luckily I was home.
