Awesome news. So, only Bitmain & Bifury now have 16nm miner. Great to see how far ASIC industry has come.

Wrong BW has them   so 3 companies have them.

Once again only bitmaintech is selling gear direct to home miners.

Check here to see BW chips in 14nm size

Why there are two identical threads re S9?

EDIT: Oh, I know why...this one is Classic...and another (longer) is Core  :)

Oops. Sorry. I dint know. I wonder, if these companies have direct access to FabLab or have their own FabLab.

Looks like one was moved in from another subform.

i see they lined the heatsinks up better.. this might make it quieter and not howl like the s7.

but buying this pre-order is very risky..

not shipping till june 12th... only 1 month before the halving..

currently it will make 540$ for the first month and 220$ after.. at 2100$ thats 7 months roi with no power factored in.

since these things are pretty powerful, 14th.. its certain the diff will increase each adjustment.. possibly 10%+

plus we all know that batch 2 or 3 will be 1/3 of the price ;)

How is the cost of the miner determined?

Post by: Subw on May 31, 2016, 10:23:57 PM
Simple: current profit per month * 4

With the halving coming. This is a tuff one to swallow.
Sure it produces 3.5x the TH as the S&, at nearly the same consumption, but it's also 4.25x the initial cost. and that's assuming the S7 doesnt go on a fire sale, plus the cost of used ones is dropping.

I'm tempted.
But I need to know the noise level, I'd buy one as a basement dehumidifier, maybe.
