Topic: Bitmain's Released Antminer S9, World's First 16nm Miner Ready to Order - page 105. (Read 531168 times)

Soooo i saw some post on reddit - Someone was complaining that Bitmain didn't sent them PSU even if they did make same order Miner+PSU. Someone replied on it and said that they sent 2 of those in 2 different shipments... Is any of this true? Can someone please answer, Did anyone had problem like this? With common sense i am expecting for shipment to arrive both at the same time, is that how they work? Or is really 2 different shipment?

Are the EVGA SuperNOVA 1600 G2 80+ GOLD, 1600W PSU's going to be overkill for use with the S9?
We use 1600 G2 Titanium's (and a few Platinums) for all the S9's in farm. We have about 105 of them. What I like about them is the 10 year warranty, though we have never had to use it. We have some that have been running 24/7/365 for three years on 3 generations of gear. We have never had a single issue or a minute of downtime with any of them. As the price of them had risen, we could probably sell them all for equal too or even more than we paid for them. They run on either 120v or 208-240v. We can run any miner with them. We can use them on our GPU rigs. They will run anything we have on any circuit. I expect them to run the next generation of gear as well.
They are overkill for sure. We did try 12 of the BitMain PSU's, back over the summer when 1600's were backordered so badly, but had a couple fail after installing them. The lesson is that BitMain's PSU's are probably intended to have a lifespan of 12-18 months so they are more or less disposable, but are cheap enough to keep a few spares around.

Are the EVGA SuperNOVA 1600 G2 80+ GOLD, 1600W PSU's going to be overkill for use with the S9? I realize they are triple the price of the
APW3++ PSU's, but they come with a 10 year warranty. My thought is that it's one less thing that has to be shipped back to Bitmain, if it fails.
I could buy 3 APW3++ PSU's for the price of the one mentioned above and just have spares, but if they are only going to last a year, I'd rather go with something that has a 10 year warranty.
I don't think I have much of a choice on the Antminer S9, because there is nothing else like it on the market. That's just a fact that I'm beginning to understand that I'm going to have to accept.

I dont see any reason to buy such an expensive psu. The AWPW3+ Is good and reliable for an honest price. Maybe in 2-3 years you will need other types of power sources, why spend so much on EVGA SuperNova?
They can be used in regular computers, but imo I also think the AWP3+ is a decent PSU. It's probably going to be useful as long as miners use 6 plug connectors and you can use it for GPUs, but if you're using an EVGA, you can also power an entire GPU rig with the 24pin connector, molex, SATA, etc. The EVGA psu is based off of a Super Flower design so it is pretty quality, though.

anyone send wires for the miners to bitmain?
on the order page, it says: Choose "PAY ALL FEES" when you wire payment
i dont see that on my wire processing page in my online banking. where is this option or do i have to go into the bank and manually do the wire there to have fees paid on my end?

Just add few more $ to the amount or go to the bank. I usually add 15$ more and most of the time the fees were 13$. Once the fees were 35$ and they asked me to cover the balance with bitcoin.

Seems like January 10-20 batch sold out. Anyone who was following them can guess when the next patch will be available?
check every hour on the hour if there are cancels you can buy one today.
My guess is you will wait a while for a full batch but there will be some cancels today.
Thanks for the advice.
good luck

Bitmain Please Solve the problem about shipping to Turkey.
We want to buy wholesale items from you directly but you dont ship to Turkey ?

Its very problematic to deal with unstable country like yours and they dont need your order since their goods sold like candy and no problem with demand
If you want to buy in HUGE Quantity than it means you have big fund, so why dont you pick a neighborhood to ship the good and pick it up yourself

Does that include electricity cost?

You're better off using a graphics card in a computer to mine than a lower end asic miner ($400 gpu vs $400 asic), I'm currently mining with a gtx 1070 and get on average $1.85 usd a day

To those who have purchased from Bitmain with them only accepting BCH, any recommendations on wallets and exchanges to use?
November 17, 2017, 01:12:16 PM
Mine have yet to ship 21-30 Nov. also.
Do they usually ship the S9’s early?
My last L3+’s shipped in the middle on the 25th last month from the 21-30 estimate that they gave.
