Do they ever mention what the hashrate will be? Or, just the power consumption per Th/s as 230 watts?

I may be stretching, but a 2.4+ Th/s machine for <$700 SHIPPED would be amazing.

very first page says how much per TH

.. of his thread.

That release date reminds me of a MS release or game release . lol

At the wall power consumption AntMiner S7 230W/TH

were all guessing on the a mount of speed it ships with . why not 340 to 400, S3 and S5 were amazing to and priced right .

If anyone noticed they left out the S2 and S4 and S5 + on the front page which make is even more positive for everyone . but I'm hopping

I know it shows how much per Th/s, but not how many Th/s Wink

. My hope is that it is over a 2 Th/s machine with those efficiencies.

They leave out the S2 bc it uses the same chip as the S1 (BM1380), S4 uses the same as the S3+ (BM1382), and S5+ uses the same as the S5 (BM1384).

Can we assume this miner will generate half the amount of heat as an S5 if were to have the same number of EDIT ~~chips~~ Th/s?

I wouldn't say we will see an obivous spike in hashrate as I think they are still replacing previous generation hardware. See for instance the S2, and UMISOO(S2) going offline because it is no longer profitable on Hashnest.

I'm just taking an educated guess, but I still think we see the S7 released in September. Also to guess the price check out this thread: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/closed-dogies-bitmain-antminer-s7-guess-the-price-prize-1159185

The Statement from resellers seems to cooperate with your opinion S7 release in September Grin

Let hope prices are competitive

I haven't read all these 14 pages, any idea when approx an actual miner might be released?

It is all assumptions so far but I am guessing in a couple weeks we will get our announcement with sales, so by the time you see a lot of US distributors selling it will be another week or two after that.

but there is no information about releases yet?

None yet only there working on it

.!!! but if I had to guess it's done there putting it thu the final testing, then once we see the hash rate and diff start going up a lot for no reason that might be why

. hash rate more then any thing at first real time testing is still the best way .. then sells will start soon after .

So then I bet they will wait with realeasing the machines until October/November. They will want to mine with them for themselves at first I guess.

I wouldn't say that either other then they have to test each and everyone before it shipped or some kind of batch test so there is no large amount of returns they will lose money with out good testing. all the S5 i ever bought from them direct were new or seemed new to me . i didn't get a chance to buy one of the used ones, i wanted to but real life living stopped me. but I'm saving for one or two S7 now at what i hope they cost like 340 to 400 each i may sell off a s3 or two real cheap i mean cheap like at S1 prices .

But i'm expecting the S7 to be within the same form factor/heat dissipation of the S5 so i would be surprised if the watt consumption would be over 690w at the wall at full speed.

I sure hope you are correct. It's just a bit worrisome that Bitmain introduced the S5+ "monster mine" about the same time. I'd rather they didn't always think "bigger is better".

i hope so too, i want to run with 1 power supply.. not needing any server ones or wire in special 220v outlets.

some one said some place it was meant it to be a S6 but sense it didn't fit the u case thing they named it s5 +, how true that is can't say but make sense if it is . which i hope it is or my home mining days are over once my S3 and S5 or any more S5 i may buy are no longer use full and no miner is to be had .

Sense they have listed the S7 as using 230 watts per th makes me think or feel positive thought it will start at 2.2/3 th with the same compact size or smaller then the S3 and S5 due to how the S5 + no longer has the really big heat sinks with the same price or cheaper then the S3 or S5 with cheaper shipping , to get more into the mining game . . selling in lots of so many or just one per order you make more any way and if any one can afford it they make more at least that's how most business sells work if they support the little guy still.

SO that's my hoping, i really enjoy doing it and the fun Ive had learning it.

As long as Bitmain sticks with their recent "string" design choice, the only option for "undervolt" or "overvolt" adjustment is to adjust the supply voltage into the entire hash board.
In THEORY they could put an adjustable buck converter at the power input to an entire string, but that defeats the whole purpose (simplicity AKA make it CHEAP to build) of a string design.

I plan to have a working prototype (hardware at least) within 30 days from receiving sample chips.

Dealing with the chips prior does any of the other hardware need to be changed or is it as simple as using the same stick and just switch chips and gaining the performance.

Drop the block size talk its off topic!

Hey bitmain

What about a 6th machine @ 1380w keeping it insides the normal power range for most people without needing custom power solutions..

Make a speed setting that lets users have a max speed version & an alternate speed setting that uses max efficiency to give this miner extra life!

You could also use 2 power supplies. It's kind of annoying but it work fine.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Edit : Just use the newer 1600w power supply u already have in stock...

Just ease off on the fan noise.. 50db to 60db would be great..

And to ease your pain - Lock it off so no overclocking..

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Edit edit : And lets make the price 6.0btc which means about US$1400...

I'm in at that power & price point, Im sure plenty other would be too...

Make this almost as powerful as the S5+ but at half the power consumption!
