Very interesting I wonder what if anything ever happened with the U4 does anybody know.  When I started mining I started on the U3 and I always have hoped for a U4 but I've heard nothing about it.

This is literally just a 2 blade S7 with a dumpy pc ATX power supply. At this price you may as well buy a normal S7 and trade someone the extra hashing board for a quality PSU if you want to run something under 1000w.

Plus as the other guy said, this is a limited run only available in China.

Is there some kind of april fool-like equivalent thing in China or something? This is silly as hell. o.O

works for cheap power guy that wants a quieter miner.  but so does unplugging a board on a real s-7 then down clock the two left from freq 700 to freq 500

Hmm. I think for a cheap power guy that wants a quiet miner, you'd want a severely undervolted version and not those fans. When i looked at the price, i told myself:
"I dont see any upside, if i was to throw money away, i'd buy a S7 and underclock that, which would give better results, I think."

On the small amount of "free" electricity i have, i have been running my now obsolete S3/S5 on silent or aftermarket fans.

I don't know maybe this fill a niche somewhere and i just don't see it.

@Tupsu: Why do you think this tells us anything about the S9?

My crystal ball says , it is the ancestor of the S9. It will soon be seen.  

S9 will be two blades small miner,  with the possibility of fixing the power supply unit or with cheap CPU on top

Basic Dimensions: 301mm(L)*123mm(W)*155mm(H) without power supply holder

I can't really make out the configuration, but is this roughly 2/3 of an S7, with the ATX PSU on top and two fans? The 90 chips sounds like two boards. The power requirements and hashrate don't quite fit the "two thirds of an S7" theory, but I'd be stunned if they actually engineered another board for the BM1385 chip at this late date.

As packaging goes, it's pretty obviously a "paste up job" of existing parts (except for the top PSU mounting bracket).

I know I will pass, though I don't think Bitmain will miss my non-purchase.  Smiley

Seems like they are trying to move the rest of the S7 chips out the door to make room for their S9 chips.



 I would love a few with s-9 chips and no psus


I could put this psu instead as I have a few of them

Those psus come from the s2

not worth buying with the psu.

shipping cost for that psu is a waste.

Too bad   as it is a decent format.

Would have been nice if it came out in December  without the psu.

I think that this purchase would be a disaster.

With this they can also replace their ageing ATX PSUs... Wink

This is S9 design with older S7 chip.

The same disaster, as S5+  before S7.

Now you have to know the S9 parameters

6.Cooling:2×12038 Fan

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.

I do not know what they are thinking. Built in psu = $$$.

So it will be 350 plus shipping. Maybe 400 total.

And we will need to pull the psu out in a month once it fails s-2 anyone.

Maybe I will get one for the array and do review .

Frankly I may buy another gpu and Eth mine with it.

That psu must be left over from the s-2.

I just want to know where info is from and how solid it is.   They hit gear quick on here to try to get an ad.   They got avalon 6 on here really quick with prototype pics.  But.... they also reported on the Avalon 4 Mini - https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.12135872 which never moved to far past prototype's.  

So I just want to know where info is from so we know how solid it is.

Did you see the post of the news source ?

I did now that you posted it.  Thank you for posting it is a good source with pictures and info.   In future you might include links to sources with posts.  

Without source it is hard to tell much as you did get the first They got avalon 6 on here really quick with prototype pics which was very real. But the Avalon 4 Mini you posted and have on your site really never made it past prototypes.

now that is cool. i would love a few of those for 0.88btc , it's a shame the shipping to Canada would be more than the miner....
those would work good for my situation, all-in-ones, and under 700watts, yummy

Shipping to Canada will probably be like $50.


Wonder what they would charge without the 1000Watt PSU since most of us have a PSU already.

Looking at this however I think it would be cheaper to just buy an S7 and remove out hashing blade. And sell that blade on eBay.

ya i was trying to order one, the sites all weird, dosent show in cart then i get
"Freight calculation error, please send e-mail to [email protected]"
so i can't even check shipping costs. i would buy one of those just to have 1, it would be perfect for my situation (small home noob miner)

There is no market for home whiners. Make a S7+ instead.
