Make the S7 heatsink backwards compatible with the S5 and S3.
So in the tropic one can still use the same liquid cooling block i'm designing

Time to save coin, and PACMiC v2 will have expired and paid back just in time for some more coin to purchase S7's!
You see what they're doing there? We mine / make coin, buy on Hashnest, use profits to buy more hardware to mine / make coin, and repeat! LOL
Watch out nothing is easy free money forever, I would keep my wits about me and make sure to not get too attached to PACMiC.You see what they're doing there? We mine / make coin, buy on Hashnest, use profits to buy more hardware to mine / make coin, and repeat! LOL
But, with that being said this announcement is still great news!

Congratulations. Outstanding Achievement at this point of the game.
I would pay a lot to be a fly at BitFury's and KNC's HQ right now ...

... so, no panic in your HQ right now?
i will love to see another war for our money performed with high class buy the mining gear developers
With this release, it looks like Bitmain becomes the solo monopoly or was it already?
Excellent.
Looking good! No eta on the actual sale of the S7 I assume, right?

This is just what we hear in public. I'm aware of a scrypt miner being produced in a joint venture by som large farms that is finished making the chips but at the stage of producing the miner now. This miner is 125Mhash with 500 Watt power use. So my believe is that other firms besides Bitmain do already have and mine with 0,216 or even lower, but Bitmain is the only one making the public business.

For home/small miner market - pretty much yes. Spondoolies - with all due respect - aren't selling anything, BitFury deals in the PH/s range, and others don't seem to have anything to compete even with the S5, not to mention this new thing.
Congratulations. Outstanding Achievement at this point of the game.

This is what we have all been waiting for! This is exciting stuff and can't wait to see miner pictures and pricing as it is revealed!
Anyone notice this part "making it the most power-efficient bitcoin mining chip ever released to public." What have they kept for themselves or sold to private industries?

Why even bring the S5+ up for sales ? That product just died with this announcement or was it because no one bought the S5+ !
As other's have suggested, they probably wanted a vehicle to consume the current gen chips.
If you have low power costs and the right deployment environment, the S5+ can still make sense.
If they have another batch of the S5+, I will buy one rather than waiting.
That's very good news. 0.216W electric consumption is great. Mining will be more profitable with this device.
No it wont, Diff will increase with it....
Yes it will. When Bitcoin price jumps off before block halving, mining expenses will be almost zero. It will have bigger effect than difficulty.

Looks good, ,might end up with around 300-350Watt pr TH at release point. ETA ?
I would guess if chip just has been tapered out, we are looking at around 3-4 month time before design of miner is finished, but why drop the bomb now, so soon before launch??

No matter what, its a damn good achievement if they manage 0.216 with 28nm Technology... Whats next Spondoolies and Avalon ?

very interesting times ahead 
This looks good, but still the ROI looks to be infinity
