What are the specs? I'll probably hold out for the 7nm unless the 851 is $1k or less. Seems like a repeat of 821 and first batch buyers will just get burned again when they release more efficient model shortly after that will probably be cheaper. 821 preorder was $2899 and shipped about 2 weeks before 841, which was $1999. I'd imagine not many other than first batch buyers bought the 821. They do have an opportunity to sell a lot of these if specs are equal or better than T2 Turbo and pricing is better than Inno; $1350 currently and shipping in 2 weeks.

Is Avalon 851 the 7nm miner or a faster 841?

I have not seen official announcements of the 851, and on twitter the 7nm miner leak was called Avalon A9.

Within any Avalon family all use the same chip so the 851 has same 16nm chips as the 821/841's do.

That is not just a Canaan issue. The s9's also increase power consumption as temps rise. The Bitmain & Sorcerer PSU's and probably most others drop efficiency as well.

100% truth! During these 100-112 days we had here in Texas my 2 S9s and 1 S9i used up to 4700 watts total when room temp was 108-109 F. Usage would drop down to around 43-4500 in the evenings as it cooled down. All 3 PSUs were APW3+++.

Also meant to say my Whatsminer M3's would use up to 2400 watts each in high temps!

That is not just a Canaan issue. The s9's also increase power consumption as temps rise. So do the Bitmain & Sorcerer PSU's and probably most others as well.

yes the apw3 + does not fare well past 85f

But even corsair 1500 titanium atx has heat creep issues.  it did the best of the 6 psu's I tested.

all psu's I used had heat creep they all want to be under 80f  and they all liked 65f or close to it best.

One thing the 841's can run in a 97f room for days on end they did this during our heat wave.

both the s9's and the T1's dropped boards
not the 841's

i hope canaan made something about the rising power consumption at growing ambient temp...

it is supposed to help this.  I have all the youtube videos and tests on the 841's  and under highest temps and settings it can be more then 100 extra watts as you go past 80f up to 97f

97f was max temp test I did.

here are the 841 numbers
