Title: S3 WATERCOOLING MOD Post by: lovenlifelarge on January 21, 2015, 02:43:34 PM Not sure if anyone has brought this to the table yet but i have 3 x Antminer S3's
One from 4th batch which doesn't overclock but 2 from the 9th batch which do overclock. I've just seen this : https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=929437.0 Which is a S5 bitmain miner running water cooling... Now is the same sort of kit available for a S3? For 2 units from the same batch?? The first being the housing http://i59.tinypic.com/110vvip.jpg The second being the water blocks http://i58.tinypic.com/2r4u1xg.jpg Im sure i could work the rest from there... Anyone with tips or suggestions??? Title: Re: S3 WATERCOOLING MOD Post by: dogie on January 21, 2015, 02:54:03 PM Also known as the Antminer C1 (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=846095)?

If a C1 is 2 x S3's.... I already own a C1 but i also own 2 x S3's. I wish to convert the 2 x S3's to make it into a C1, If this is even possible?? It would mean i would be able to run 2 S3's off 1 power supply like a C1 not to mention i would lose the noise of 2 S3's.. Is there kit out the available to ,ake this happen??

A C1 is 2 x S3. They even sell the waterblocks individually. The problem is there is not a kit with all the parts, you would need to figure out how to do it yourself. The big problem is getting the small parts you need. The controller card is the same, but I believe 2 of the cables need to be longer than what comes in the S3 (that might not even be true if you can fit them in a S3 case, but the controller card would need to be relocated higher to allow the power cable to one of the boards if you are going to use both connectors on the two internal boards, which may be easy). Also, getting the screws and springs. Other than that and some simple modding of the S3 case by drilling some screw holes on the bottom and front, if I'm not forgetting anything, you can do exactly what you're asking. |
