S5s are happy up to about 70-72, then personally I get a bit iffy. If the safety cutoff (with plenty of in built margin) is 80C, then we should not have a problem at 70C.



I've asked for the spec sheet but unable to get anything out, the last one I saw didn't have a name on it. What I do know is that the stock fan uses 1A+ so there's plenty of capacity. I've asked again. Edit: Parameters are here: https://i.imgur.com/fvqHojq.png. Note the rated current (max) is at 4400 RPM and 8V, so its more likely around 1.2A at 12V at 4000 RPM.



Requested it be changed, I'll check back on it in a few days if its not moved. Edit: Its changed.

The point of Batch 6 is more of a reservation than a discount. There are several parties that want large quantities - but not for a few months - and so this allows Bitmain to plan production. The last thing anyone wants is for no S5s to be available because a few big parties came and took several weeks of production without any planning, and miners not be available to anyone else.

Please don't email Yoshi for order related enquries, he is no longer at that level and is very busy. Email email Janet, bitmain, use the ticket system on your account or ZenDesk.



512 absolute minimum, 1024 much better, 2048 also acceptable.

Why are you running your S2 topless? Mine always ran hot when I did that. Also, why is it blasting directly at a wall?

AF120 is 1650RPM with moderate static pressure, which is too low for an S5. 2 SP120s works in sensible ambients and benefits from taping the heatsinks closed (top and bottom). Its going to run hotter than stock (60-65) but thats fine and its the closest you can get to a silent S5.



No problem, let us know if you need any help.

I didn't think they worked together but didn't want to say anything as I wasn't sure. I was really disappointed to find out that they didn't make them even remotely backwards compatible because it defaults the whole purpose of having "1" platform everyone works from. Now everyone has to start again and support TWO platforms, its silly.

The usual method is that they'll mine on it for 30 days, then force a return. There is almost no way for a seller to prevent a forced return via Paypal, so you refund them in full and lose out on the depreciation of the miner.

That is a very good point, although I would have expected the controller to flip out by locking up.

That's correct, "SP20 Dawson" is not a thing and is an error. And the "e" is to signify they fixed the hashboard mounting but very few people use that moniker.

I've heard you talk about this web of things type model before, it will never ever ever be even remotely close to viable. Putting single / quad chip PCBs + own controllers + wifi is so incredibly expensive compared to even an S5 formfactor.

Is that a powered USB hub?

Still doesn't sound like its changing sufficiently, medium settings should be quite a way from turbo. Can you upload some screenshots?

The S3++ is a real thing that is/was sold in mainland CN only. I can't verify the legitimacy of that particular listing however.

Which CITM is now also abusing *sigh*

It is insane, I'm going to post it in full just to demonstrate how silly it is. It is one solution but in the previous thread he was asked to do so and and ignored it. It would remove his own trust at the same time.


Yeah. That was font size 6.

You mean the people committing illegal acts and telling me to kill myself? That openly operate using shill accounts and refuse to reveal their main accounts? I am also NOT at trust level 1, nor do I have 180+ people in my trust list simply because they gave me positive trust.

CanaryInTheMine has previously come under fire for misusing his level 1 DefaultTrust position by adding users into his trust list in return for leaving him positive trust. This further increased Canary's own trust score and power, as well as the addition of many accounts added inappropriately to DefaultTrust. This included newbies, those abusing their level 2 trust and others running questionable operations. He has refused to chance his practises and is further now abusing that self given power at the detriment of the forums. When you put some numbers on the trust network, its pretty shocking case of abuse and centralisation of influence.

There are currently 417 accounts in DefaultTrust lists, of which 211 (53%) are from Canary.
181 (100%) of people who left Canary 'trusted' trust are in DefaultTrust because Canary added them to it (+ some overlapers).

What is more, he has started abusing his inappropriately self appointed power. He has ~trusted several accounts, including me, aggressively in order to inappropriately shield his own interests. CITM is heavily involved with ASICMiner.

AirWolf - because he put a bounty on information regarding ASICMiner (to regain his investment)
Silverspoon - because he was critical of ASICMiner
SpanishSoldier - because he was critical of ASICMiner
NotLambchop - because he was critical of ASICMiner (although he is a bit hash)

And... me. CITM has refused to respond as to why he has ~'ed me and does not respond to PMs. Its one thing to buff his own ratings, but he is now directly inhibiting the very reason for default trust's existence for his own personal gain. There are currently 10 phising accounts, scam accounts or PM spammers that I am the only trust rating for, which are now unmarked.


Canary should either be forced to alter his negative practises or face removal from DefaultTrust.

Edit:
Canary has repeatedly dodged explaining why he has removed me from DefaultTrust, and refuses to be accountable for his actions. He has since left a negative trust rating for creating this thread and highlighting his abuse of the DefaultTrust system. These are the actions of a desperate man, not one fit to be in DefaultTrust.

---

Edit2:
Canary has now been removed.

Mines quite loud, louder than every other heatsink I have (ignoring SP30/35 ones).

*Lost them lots of money and is now gone. S5's are the current price benchmark, not SP20s.

Scammers aren't banned, haven't been for a while.
