Any idea when Batch 4 will be released?

Is Batch 3 completely shipped?

No information yet on batch 4 they might not even sell one. Batch 3 I don't think has started shipping yet. They are still shipping batch 1/2

Hopefully they are coming out S4 instead..

why?

do you think it will be better then 3 s-3's and an evga 1300 psu?   that would be 1300-1450 gh  at 980-1100 watts.


I do not see the s-4 being too good. but what do I know?

To be honest  using 1000w to mine 1000gh or 1100w to mine 1100 is just pure stupid, wasting elecricity.
If s4 is willing  use 750w with the hashrate of 1100, it will be cheaper hit on target. More chips on the board require less overclocking , less heat and less votage.  S3 is my first choice follow by btc garden

There will be a batch 4 and at some point an S4.

Batch 4 is needed to use the coupons from the first batches  8)

You work for bitmain?  ;D

No, but coupons force more batches of S3s.

They have previously announced they would build blades for the rackmount solution, using their new chips.

Bitmain announced the lowest estimated power consumption of their 28nm chip and will utilize this in a rackmountable design in order to be able to compete with spondoolies and bitfury next gen.
(Bitfury has rackmountable 0.75W/GH/s at the moment)


Once they have their high volume S3 production fully in place, they will announce S3 prices moving forward.
