Well back to topic. (I am philipma1957 on a second pc)
After much testing of my single s-5 .
I can get it to do freq 412 gh= 1331 with 99.965 good lots of fans 2 delta and one nuctua
I can get it to do freq 387 gh = 1272 with 99.999 good one delta fan
A full case does not help cooling of the temp chip
a top does not help cooling of the temp chip
point up works better with a bottom only.
Since I have 1 s-5 it has 1 delta fan in the blow position I wired it to be a 4 wire pwm fan , It is on a solid surface. no top.
If I ran a lot I would do strato's method. If you have 2 just get some delta fans you drop the sound from 75db to 60db and run at freq 387

Because I put it there to be 100% clear, as I said 5 days ago. I don't really care if you believe overclocking voids the warranty or not - that's your prerogative to do what you want with your warranty. Just don't encourage others to void theirs with false claims that it doesn't unless you want to create a bond. Then those who's units fail under warranty but listened to your 'mod' voided their warranties with incorrect information can be paid.
You are such a fool to antagonise bitmain in such a manner. You posting that on the wiki page linked from the main site does not make it a term of purchase. A more appropriate place would be the user-manual ..... and do that knowing pretty well it can not be applied retrospectively, and you should make that clear in the "advice posts" you make on this forum (to the people that are naive enough to take your advice).
Just to clarify, how does positioning your S5 vertically void the warranty, or are you just being off-topic for the sake of it?
And by the way, this is NOT a bitmain forum where you as the self appointed bitmain representative can dictate what is posted or not, be it about bitmain products or not.
You've advised people to upgrade their S3 firmware to your corrupted, self hosted firmware and the same persons have reported failed chips on their rigs from installing your firmware download, how many of those have you recompensed?

Dogie is wrong that it is not cooler at least in my case. It is cooler this way with 1 unit in a 12 by 12 by 7.5 very well insulated room.
That's not what I was saying. Given a homogeneous environment its not going to make any difference. If you take it to an extreme of a single 600W unit in a unit with a window open, of course the floor is going to be cooler.
My only issue is Dogie; he was helpful with the wiring diagram for using two PSUs with 3 miners; but more often then not he seems misinformed on a lot of different topics. I am not even 100% convinced he actually works for Bitmain or just self appointed himself. But that's a whole other issue.
So because I suggested you should add a "this will void your warranty" disclaimer, you take it personally? Either way I'd rather you not like me then customers' ability to use their warranty be damaged, should they need it.
Bitmain has still made ZERO comment on the warranty - or lack there of. So I take your claim with a grain of salt - as it was written by you and only appears burried in some obscure forum on some wiki - where ever that is.
sadly this poped up on bitmains site not sure when

This is simply a case of if dogie did not suggest the idea, its a bad idea. The OP clearly stated that he's got several S5's in the vertical configuration and philipma1957 is simply confirming that it works for a single unit too! What is so hard to understand about that?

No, the OP said you seem misinformed on a lot of different topics and that he was not 100% sure you actually work for Bitmain. I actually know the OP's sentiment to be accurate, and there is nothing personal about that in my or OP's case. As the OP said, that is borne true by your fabricated terms of warranty which you have been peddling all over this forum for your own selfish, self gratification (there's a special term for that ..... I am sure you know what it is).
I can confirm that I noticed an improvement in temps on a vertically positioned S3. I only run it for a few hours on a day that was warmer than it has been in the last week and the temps on both blades were down by 3 and 5 respectively (whatever units they use) for the duration. I need to get a more sturdy mesh on which to deploy them for the long term so I'll do this when I next get some free time over the coming weekend.
To further add, and I mean this half jokingly and half not so much; is that I almost want to simply believe that Dogie isnt even an actual human, rather some sort of software chat bot, with high intelligence for communication in forums.
The reason I say that is his replies to posts almost never address the issues he is commenting on accurately. They seem to stray off topic, or ignore the spirit of the original post altogether. It just very much seems like recycled babble.
Either that or his English comprehension is just poor, and doesn't fully understand what he's reading, or what the responses he posts actually communicate.
Dogie; a test (which I feel even the most sophisticated chat bot would not be able to solve). If a tree was cut down with an axe in the middle of a forest, and no one was around to hear the sound. Would it make a sound?

Thanks for bringing that to our attention, but I am afraid that can not be applied retrospectively to units bought before whatever date it appeared. Infact, despite bitmain having a winner of a machine in the S5, this addition to their wiki (which I am not yet sure whether it is referenced to be part of the conditions of purchase) without being dated is an underhand way of dealing with their customers. But hey, it is what it is .... a small print added to limit their exposure and shaft their customers.
and In a US court it wouldn't hold, not enough to explain what it apply's to etc .
they are in the US now or have been but took down that site i have talked to Yoshi Goto over the phone at the site that was out in Colorado i no longer have those email so i can't prove it but he replaced one of my S3 one time no question asked and seemed to be really cool . they even crossed shipped it kind of .I don't know how they get a way with out giving the address unless that number was posted on a oversea site that lets them .i'm no lawyer but i can tell you when some laws are not being followed right but don't know how to file etc rater not to much involved these days .

I had some time today to build something to close the case of the S5. I still have the miner standing vertical. Closing the bottom of the miner helped in bringing temps of blade 2 down 3 degrees. But covering the top was not as expected and caused blade 1 to increase temps by 2-3 degrees and blade 2 increased by 1 degree. Fan speed increased two steps too. So now I am using vertical setup with standard fan, closed bottom and run the miner at 393.75 with 1280 GH at 43 degrees max.
one fan how cold is the room Ive been thinking of adding some plexiglass at the bottom my self i have a peace laying around cut to fit it . and heat sink two of the chips again . i need them a little more less noise . here one of mine standing up.
Room temp is at 10-11 degrees.

Overclocking voids the warranty? Then why is it a drop down option in the control panel of your software which ships with the units.
Secondly; why is it not listed on that submenu (Advanced) as WARNING saying that clocking above 350 will void ones warranty.
Antminer warranty is like dog shit in the street.Secondly; why is it not listed on that submenu (Advanced) as WARNING saying that clocking above 350 will void ones warranty.
Antminer dont have any warranty.only warranty is he first take money for miner and delivery usually used miner.
i have recive one s1 miner whit totally broken fan mount,he sey bay one in localy shop. next time you bay s-1 i send you replacement because post is exspensive i bay more 7x s1 and never receive this broken fan.
I'll have to say I havent had that experience. I ordered roughly 50 of the S3+ units - and only one was defective - just a bad fan - it happens. They were super responsive and helped me get it swapped out.
As far as the S5 units - the ones I received (24 of them) - they were definitely used. There was a lot of dust build up on the fan blades - you could tell these had been run for some time.
HOWEVER - I think it goes without saying that when you buy a miner from Bitmain or any miner manufacturer - they are first used to mine then sold as they roll in their newest generation miners for themselves. Their business model depends on that.
I would have liked the units I received to not have so much dust build up. But all 24 of them are working just as they were promised - even better. And I replaced the fans anyways.
My only issue is Dogie; he was helpful with the wiring diagram for using two PSUs with 3 miners; but more often then not he seems misinformed on a lot of different topics. I am not even 100% convinced he actually works for Bitmain or just self appointed himself. But that's a whole other issue.
So for me Bitmain has been great. Just wanted to throw in my experience there.
