Topic: Any real Antminer S7 competitor out there ? - page 2. (Read 2594 times)
The S7 was the way to go in my opinion, maybe not now though. If you buy an Avalon 6 today and get it hashing above the stated 3.6Ths (which looks to be possible up to 4Ths) it might be just as good of a deal as an S7 because the S7 batch 8 that is currently for sale might be a month and a half till delivery. In that time you could earn almost 1BTC from an Avalon and that would make up for the slight additional costs. The S7 ship has already set sail and its a bit late to get aboard now. The Avalon train is leaving the station...
Avalon 6 would be your closest match. Not as efficient but in the ballpark and that is still good enough.
Spondoolies Tech has the SP 50

It outforms the antminer on every front. Check the specs. The Antminer S7 is a baby if you look to the power of this baby:
0.15W/GH/s
Effective Hash Rate 110 TH/s ± 10%
Have you actually tried to get your hands on them? You can't just buy one according to my customers that have inquired. I was referring to miners that the average can get their hands on.

no, Spoldoolies DOES NOT HAVE the SP50, that is just a RENDER with imaginary TH/S
on the other hand , the S7 is a real miner that you can actually buy and mine with

Either the price of gear is going to get halved or they're going to stop getting buyers soon.
If they half the price, people will buy and buy causing the diff to skyrocket. Probably over double in a two or three months.
If they keep the price the same then buyers will dry up real soon. Profitability is already on the fence and with the next 10%+ jump in 14 days nobody will buy at these prices at all. This would keep the hashrate around the 100 Billion that it will be come January.
Either way this looks like a loosing situation for any miner looking to buy right now and it will become more clear come Jan/Feb. Sigh...

Really debating to myself on whether to drop the coin for this batch or wait to see if there's a batch 9 to follow. With the huge jump in difficulty only hours away, it's making me really hesitant to buy.
yeah 11% and looks like both avalon and bitmaintech are going to sell and sell and sell and sell more.

https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Mining_hardware_comparison and https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Non-specialized_hardware_comparison are the canonical lists. I'm not sure that will be useful to you; there's approximately 940 products across the two lists.
Even on the list you provided the Animiner S5+ is the cheapest option comparing by most Mhash for every dollar. Is out there any real S7 competitor ? I know there is the avalon 6 but it is a bit more expensive than the S7 per Th/S, and we all know the S7 is already too expensive !
thats is your choice for the most efficient gear.
