Title: How high do you think the S3's will clock to?
Post by: bjalbert on July 14, 2014, 05:01:52 PM
I was hoping to get get 500GHs+ but sounds like that may not happen.

And you couldn't post that in the main S3 thread?

If you discuss everything related to a piece of hardware in a single thread it creates a mess. We could have a single thread called all 28nm miners but you have to draw the line somewherre.

looks more like how low is the better option.

 say 400gh and 280 watts  buy an extra set. with your coupons.

I am looking at this option over any other option.

It's possible to clock it higher, but it will start to create too high temperature, which has to be removed somehow, so get better cooling first.

Well, with Bitmain coming out today and stating that the anticipated hashing rate of 478GH/s caused problems, I doubt there will be much success in over clocking these at all - at least batch 1/2/3.

I'm actually going to go the other route, as philipma1957 alluded to.  If these can be under clocked to get 400GH/s at about 275W, I'll throw 4 of them on and EVGA G2 1300.  Now, with Bitmain also offering coupons/discounts for those of us that ordered the first batch, I'll most likely grab a few more depending on the under clocking results.

yeah 400gh in the 250-275 watts range  make them very quiet and cool.  I have 2 evga 1300's I my end up with  6 of them 3 in my home and 3 at my friends office.


it would be 2.4th along with the 1th  hosted in china. gives me 3.4th   push 0.4th at bitsolo.net and the rest at btcguild and bitminter.

Damn 4 S3's on one EVGA 1300 sounds very good >.>
