It would appear it is now official.  This wattage is much more workable in my appt.. Do likes.

+1 for the bracket, would do anything to be able to tidy up the mess of cables and PSU's currently plaguing my s7's



zip ties and more zip ties will clean it up!

I think that this purchase would be a disaster.

This is S9 design with older S7 chip.

The same disaster, as S5+  before S7.
..................................................
Now you have to know the S9 parameters

5.Dimension:306mm(L)*150mm(W)*275mm(H)
6.Cooling:2×12038 Fan

I dont know why they didnt just come up with a 3-board design using undervolted chips for less heat and better efficiency. I bet a 135-chip design could manage 4.2TH/1kW, which would be pretty compelling.

Including the PSU seems silly in most places where PSUs are readily available in stores. Unless its <$80 for that PSU it not really worth the hassle and shipping costs compared to the local NCIX/tigerdirect.

but i love the top bracket. Id buy just that for my S7 as it looks like a great way to minimize cord clutter from the PSU

I wouldn't buy that, I'll buy a new process, fed up of the 28nm which right now, it is having a longer life than 56nm...
Bitmain is hellbent on diluting the entire mining market at all costs, so I'm not going to help them any further.
They counter difficulty increases with putting in more hardware on the market, so there is no new-diff-settle time; which is anti-Bitcoin... it's a market takeover.
Like it or not, Chinese pools amount for over 75% of the pooled hashrate.
Who profits from this the most?  You guessed it.  Buttmain.

This is just a pilfer miner, like the S5 was... just meant to take your previous miner's good coin yields to pay for the cheap-ass hardware.
Nah, I'll keep my coin this time and wait for the next generation miner, and potentially, next non-dick manufacturer... but they all are.
I bitch at Bitmain but KnC & BitFury are 1,000 times worst and will be until there is serious competition.
Until then, enjoy Bitmain's monarchy, BitFuty's lies and KnC's selfishness.

pure speculation

S9 Specifications:
1. Hash Rate: 9.63 TH/s ±5%
2. Power Consumption: 1350W+ 10% (at the wall, with APW3, 93% efficiency, 25C ambient temp)
3. Power Efficiency: 0.15 J/GH + 10% (at the wall, with APW3, 93% efficiency, 25°C ambient temp)
4. Rated Voltage: 11.60 ~13.00V
5. Chip quantity per unit: 114x BM1396 6. Dimensions: 301mm(L)*123mm(W)*155mm(H)
7. Cooling: 1x 12038 fan
8. Operating Temperature: 0 °C to 40 °C
9. Network Connection: Ethernet
10. Default Frequency: 800M

Wow, even speculating the frequency. I have a feeling that this will be the closest to the S9.



... and then the chinese people call it S11 and your speculation is over Cheesy

Anyways. I hope after claiming the first position they will stop a bit - even if they have a new chip.
They shall use it for own farm and dont sell it.
This would be a good long time invest for all who already have an Antminer or who want to buy a new S7 right now.
If S9, S11 or whatever is on the market the ROI for old mining hardware will be in danger (like it is and was always).
Every time the difficulty gets a bit higher the earnings will be harder --- and everytime the hashrate increases --- the difficulty will increase faster, because of passing more blocks is faster, too.

For me the winner is fix. They should be ready with a new asic out of the box for the day a competitor is announcing a new asic, but for now --- slower is nicer Wink

The timing of that monstrosity is awful, it is as useful as tits on a boar  Wink - unless it has some newer chips than the 1385
I have no idea what will sell in China.  But it's the price that baffles me.  It's like they are sticking it to their own countryman.

Do not forget. This price is with the Chinese sales tax. ( 17% ? )
You gotta love the communist free market.

This only open 1000unit to local China. The price is including the postage(local) + PSU 1000W.
....however, from the chinese forum, this model is a joke, local chinese no one willing to buy.

Well, however - I think it is a nice idea for small or low power miner, who just want a small machine.
It the chinese people dont buy it maybe bitmain will sell it worldwide Wink

Waiting for news
Do you think we will hear anything before the halving on the new miner?  I would think they would wait until the dust settles.
That's why the last (maybe) run of S7's shipping out starting this week.  Just seems like a chaotic time to introduce a new miner.
But I suppose they will sell them regardless of the cost.  I did order one last S7 from this upcoming batch.

I think we can all agree on this:  More flashing lights.  Christmas color leds.  Even more leds.  More flashing frequency.  brighter.  faster.  longer.


here here i love to see those lights don't know what i do now with out them but yes more lights please on those miners.

IF it's real



awesome not really i see why no one really wants it now i don't even think i do @ 300 to 400 USD imo as other said wait: S7 will be the same price if not cheaper, there milking it till they get there new chips ready .

and hit us with a over priced s10 s11 s12 or what ever name they give it and it will sell unless bitfury  does what they said https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.14898273 the other day and BW comes thu we should see nicely priced miners again everyone can enjoy.
