Title: 2x antminer S3+ or 1 antminer s5?
Post by: BTC-TMXSTAR on January 25, 2015, 03:35:20 PM
Hi! Planning to add more miners, but which of these two is better?
2x Antminer S3+
or
1x Antminer S5

I think their is no deference between this two miners  :-\
Any reasons why you choose either 1?

I think i will go to S3+ because its silent and full cover body. For now i did not see any advantage from the S5

but before i buy, i will ask you guys first :)

Thanks advance
and
God Bless!!!!!

I will go to S5, power efficiency is 0.51 J/Gh.
S3+ power efficiency is 0.78 J/Gh

Just be prepared for the added noise from the fan of the S5 over the S3 but besides it being more efficient it is easier to change freq to over/under clock. The S5 is just a fun miner.
