I just cleaned with cotton swabs as well, but that is as far as I have gotten with setting it up.

I need to locate jumper wire and then figure out how to actually run it!

You want to watch a youtube video?  lol.  It's fairly easy with the jumper wire.  I think you can even use a paper clip, but I'm not using one, so I don't know for sure.

If you're bored and have plenty of time; first post above has a youtube video unboxing and setup.  Just skip around to the section you need.

I went and found your posts before I saw this, very helpful stuff. Just watched the other video; will have to check that dropbox situation out!

Paid 23.1. and status Processing.
No shipping info  Sad

Does the address you sent your payment to still show a balance, or was it transferred to a different wallet? Mine's still sitting in the payment wallet.
It was transfered to a different wallet aprox. 90min after payment

Well then you're probably en route from the experiences I've heard so far. On the other hand, mine was not, which leads me to be more concerned that the order got screwed up somehow and Sushi never got it. Very disconcerting!

My order # is 336 paid on 1/21, and still nothing in myUPS account.

I'm wondering did my order get missed?

Just received miner but there appears to be thermal compound all over the PCB dripping from screws?? wtf?

pics attached






I'm afraid to even start mining.. It's running into the ASICs etc... What should I do?

Clean it with thermal degreaser wipes from local PC shop. I checked my unit and it had a little mess on it but not as bad. Had a few problems getting it to connect up so had to press the reset button to restore to factory then also had to update firmware as wasn't hashing.

However all working in perfect order so far.

I have an unboxing youtube video (posted in the custom hardware section) where I stopped in the middle of the video because I had the same thing that you have.  It was very easy to wipe off.  Just do it carefully.  I used a lot tissues and for the corners of those screws, i used cotton swab tips with rotating motion.  Not bad at all, and I was being careful not to put too much pressure on the circuits or scratch them.

Even after all of that, it's worth it as the latest Ant S1 is giving me 2 GH/s faster performance than my older Ant S1 (from GB5) that didn't have thermal pastes, both OC'ed.

Out of three miners one of mine looked like that.   Its no big deal.   With the unit unplugged a little rubbing alcohol on a cotton swab will easily remove the excess thermal compound.   No noticeable impact to how well the machine works.

Holy F8 S8

SUSHI Is now the second re-seller/manufacturer to ever deliver an ASIC to me within 14 days! That makes 2/13 and doubles my success rate!

Regardless thanks sushi, the ant arrived perfect and was up and hashing in under 2 minutes.  No issues whatsoever.

Order # was about 350 ordered on the 21st.

Mine is due in today. Does it have regular pci-e connections or do you have to cut up a pic-e extender?

The new ones all have regular pci-e connections on the PCB.  I've order 11 Ants from Sushi, the first 2 (from GB 2 or 3, can't remember anymore, mid december order) had pci-e extensions with them.  All the rest have had connections directly on them.

For the wireless thing I think I'm gonna go with the NETGEAR - IEEE 802.11n 300 Mbps Wireless Bridge solution.  Seems brain dead simple to me.
