you sell your hash power! for at least double the bitcoin!
few days back it was 10 times!

I understand.

I've thought about it.  I've looked into prices different miners are charging and such.  I personally would not pay to rent others rigs and anyone else who does needs to shop around because maybe 1% to 2% of them actually get you back what you rented them for unless you had them pointed at a pool that got extremely lucky!

This is interesting:

3) The original order value of $599 will be credited at 115% value [$689] against an S5 order placed in the web store. This will be issued in the form of a 15 day coupon, each coupon valued [$344.5].

(emphasis mine)

Of course it doesn't necessarily mean the coupon will be issued NOW and S5 is released IMMEDIATELY, but it's an interesting choice of words.

Anyway, watch out for those coupons when the time comes.

Thanks for the heads up!!!

Each miner goes though rigorous quality control by QA staffs multiple times.  Sometimes the air turbulence during the air freight may cause damages to the miner as we use International Express via Air to deliver miners to the end customers.

Please PM here or contact +1-844-248-6246 Option 2 to request the replacement parts sent to you.  Please prepare the original order confirmation page to submit to the techs on the phone or in PM.

PS: some are beyond our control, however, we do not point finger at UPS and say, UPS's problem deal with them, but, rather, when we are notified, we will handle the DOA RMA process as fast as we can.

@techgeeks
If you have a blank LCD screen during the bootup, then more than likely the loose contact MicroSD card, or currupted MicroSD card or damaged MicroSD card.  Please try to reseat the microSD card, if that doesn't work, please try to reimage the MicroSD card from the image available at http://www.bitmaintech.com

Thank you

Although I had no problems with my equipment, other than having to eject and re-insert a MicroSD card in one of my S4's and one bad PSIe port in 1 of 18 S3's, I have been pleased personally with BITMAIN rigs.

It may be that is the problem with the gentleman's 3 to 5 S4's that went blank on the LCD screen [Needing to eject and re-insert MicroSD card] due to shipping.  He may not be familiar with the MicroSD card possibly being an issue and needs to do what you previously mentioned.  I suppose that could occur from moving the boxes around in a rough manner during shipping.  Your packaging and protecting the equipment is outstanding I will admit!

I appreciate you coming on here to back your product and support to give assurance you are behind resolving any problems that may occur with equipment during the shipping process. Don't think I was out to give BITMAIN a bad name.  It's just I have high hopes of mining with at least 180 Th/s of BITMAIN equipment in the future.  Certainly by August or September next year.  I'm buying another $8,000.00 in BITMAIN rigs the last week in February or first week in March.

I'm just thankful to hear you will do what is ethical in resolving issues that may arise due to DOA's or dead boards giving "xxxxxx xxxxxx" on arrival.

Thanks again for your reply and reassurance!

Best Regards,

I just hate hearing someone else having issues with quality control.  I have 18 S3's and all of them have been wonderful except for the PCIe port on one going bad.  BITMAINTECH really messed up on the S4's debut.  Whoever is responsible for supervising quality control at bitmaintech may need to be fired!  I really hope BITMAIN gets the S5 done right on its debut.  If they mess up the S5's debut, they will ruin their reputation and have a lot of us running towards Spondoolies, etc.

A lot of us think their reputation is already ruined.  They are betraying their customers left and right.  Might be too late for them to turn around.

M

I just think that ESPECIALLY if someone invests that much into that many rigs at one time, AT LEAST make sure the rigs work properly after 24 hours use at a minimum.  The whole thing just stinks when investing that much money.  More than likely, someone who invests that much will do so again.  So, don't ruin it with poor quality control!!!!

The whole thing just stinks because I just said, "...they have the best equipment on the planet" in another forum.  I HATE eating my words when I see stuff like this!!!

Come on guys...

Go easy on him.  He's simply making an offer.  May be a bad offer but it's still an offer.

I actually believe many of us who have bought an S4 will wish we had known an S5 was around the corner THAT CLOSE!

So, those of you who also have an S4, please go easy on him.

In my opinion, we [who have bought S4's] were left out of the loop for someone else's profit.  Yes, we will still ROI.  However, it will take longer to ROI on the S4 than it will on the S5.
You have details on the S5?

Sorry, no details.  Only speculation from the following forum:  https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=826519.180

Even if we have to put a bag over her head to hide the use and a clip on our nose to hide the smell.

dmwardjr ... hang your head in shame you little shit ... GET OFF THIS FORUM YOU IDIOT.




What is your problem?

I'm talking about the S5, Dude.

"Her" is the S5...

bag over "her" (S5) head [actually our head] to hide (ignore) it is used. and clip on our nose to hide the smell (electronic heat odor) from use.

Ease up dude.  Have you ever heard of metaphors?

Those dude's are joking and I use a metaphor, only to get jumped on by you.  Was simply trying to be funny and I think you are drawing the wrong conclusion.

You get off this forum if you think I'm going to disrespect a man's wife I don't even know!  Hell, he may not even be married!  So, IF you think I'm talking about a man's wife, you got me dead wrong!  PERIOD!  I'm married and have a child.  I respect women!  My wife earned my utmost respect when I saw what she went through when giving birth to our son!  

IF he is married, I have the utmost respect for him cause getting married and having children is a beautiful thing.  Having a family of our own is an honorable place to attain in life.  I was simply using a metaphor as a joke and you obviously took it the wrong way.

I'm referring to us guys who are hard up for even a used S5 like a horny despot in search of a hoar.

Ease up, Dude!

FAR BE IT FOR ME TO DISRESPECT A MAN (BITMAIN) WHO HAS DONE A LOT FOR THE BITCOIN COMMUNITY IF THAT IS WHAT YOU THINK I'M DOING.  I ALREADY HAVE 23 OF HIS RIGS.  I WILL NOT PURCHASE ANY OTHER EQUIPMENT BUT HIS BECAUSE IT IS THE BEST EQUIPMENT ON THE PLANET... BY FAR!!!  I WAS TALKING ABOUT A DAMN USED S5!!!!!

ALSO, I DON'T BELIEVE BITMAIN WILL SEND PEOPLE USED S5'S.  HE WOULD KEEP THEM AT ANTPOOL FOR WOULD BE RENTERS.  MY OPINION!!!!

SO, SLOW YOUR ROLL!!!!

AS FOR "LITTLE SHIT," THIS LITTLE SHIT WOULD CHEW YOU A NEW ASS!  YOU WOULD DIE FROM EXHAUSTION TRYING TO GET AWAY FROM ME.

I served my country proudly in the United States Marine Corp and I respect freedom, women and family BIG TIME!  If you say I'm disrespecting women by using the word, "hoar," then you are saying God is disrespectful to women by using the word "Harlot" (hoar) in His Word.

It all lies with the "intent."  My "intent" was to point out how many of us would still buy a "used" S5 [although I don't believe it would be used] because many of us are so hard up for an S5.  I gave a metaphor of "how hard up" by using a horny despot in search of a hoar to describe how "hard up" many of us are [including me] for an S5.

So, I think you owe me an apology OR we can continue this bull crap measuring each others dick [Also a metaphor].  It's up to you...

If they are already mining using S5 then this good, because this mean there will be no extra hash on the network when they but it on sell.

Really? like someone using your wife for stuff and when he finishes with her you may have it...
Bull Shit!

LOL

more like its antminers wife and after antminer bored, he gave it to you   Grin Grin Grin

Yeah, but many of us are horny as hell and will more than likely pay to do the hoar (used S5).  Even if we have to put a bag over her head to hide the use and a clip on our nose to hide the smell.

Can anybody tell me what the average earnings per day have been over the last week?  Thanks.
About 25,500 BTC or so.

Sounds about right.
Crap, my bad. That's the earnings over the whole week.

I've actually refined the calculations though, I'm now showing US$5.3 trillion per day.

I KNOW THIS IS AN S4 THREAD.  However, not much going on at the S3 thread.  So, I'm bringing this question over here:

Has anyone bought an S3 lately and noticed in "miner status" that you have four (4) fans listed when in fact your S3 only has two (2) fans?

Look at mine:

>clip image<

Also, my S3 will allow me to adjust the voltage like an S4 does.  My S3 will not RESET properly either.  So, I was wondering if BITMAIN installed S4 software on my S3?

Has anyone else noticed this on a new S3 they have purchased?

He he, 4 fans-a first glimpse of S5 (flat or double decker)?  Grin
Predictions: 3 times more chips (underclocked), 2-2.5 times higher GH (hopefully, 1TH), 0.6w/Gh with voltage control for further underclocking to 0.4w/Gh

It still makes no sense to display 4 fans on my S3 that has only 2 fans.  I'm having problems still with one board shutting down after a few minutes.  So, I switched to two PCI-e ports I haven't used for any length of time except to see if they would work.  Let's see how long the board stays up now.  I got two new S3's along with four (4) new S4's Wednesday, last week.  Had them not even a week and I'm starting to have problems with a PCI-e port on an S3 I believe.  Neither S3 will reset properly!  And they appear to have the wrong software installed on them; meaning S4 software for four (4) fans that can also adjust the voltage.

My C1 display shows 4 fans and a C1 has only 1 fan.

Barbara

Thanks for the reply, Barbara!

That means they did not install the wrong software... more than likely!

I appreciate you responding, ma'am!

If you wish to say I'm logged into an S4, then I have more serious troubles.  Cause it would mean I have two boards out and I have two fans out.

Does anyone else have S3's that show four (4) fans in "Miner Status?"
2198  Bitcoin / Hardware / Re: [Guide] Dogie's Comprehensive Bitmain Antminer S3 Setup [HD] on: December 10, 2014, 03:09:23 AM
I think I know why my S3's will not RESET properly.

THEY LOADED THE WRONG SOFTWARE ONTO THIS RIG.

Both of these S3's have only 2 fans each because they are S3's.  However, the software looks like it is for the S4 because it will allow me to change the voltage AND the software has a reading for four (4) fans.  This rig only has two fans; it's an S3.

I BELIEVE THAT IS THE REASON THESE TWO (2) NEW S3's I PURCHASED WILL NOT RESET PROPERLY!  THE WRONG SOFTWARE INSTALLED ON THEM AT THE FACTORY!

2199  Bitcoin / Hardware / Re: [Guide] Dogie's Comprehensive Bitmain Antminer S3 Setup [HD] on: December 10, 2014, 02:48:29 AM
Well, I switched back to the 2 other PCI-e ports I was using at first and now it's working.  I guess it was just some kind of glitch.

Oh Well...

False Alarm...
2200  Bitcoin / Hardware / Re: [Guide] Dogie's Comprehensive Bitmain Antminer S3 Setup [HD] on: December 10, 2014, 02:20:54 AM
Hi Dogie,

Now one of those two miners I said would not reset has a bad board or something.  It has gone completely down.  Any suggestions?

I have not even had these a week yet.  I reboot it only to see one board active.



Reboot it again...  IT ALSO APPEARS THAT 1 OF THE 2 FANS ARE OUT AS WELL.  The software acts like it is for an S4 and as if I have 4 fans with 3 fans out.  When in reality I have only 2 fans with 1 fan out.  Did they load the wrong software on this miner or what?



EVERYTHING WAS GOING FINE UNTIL I GOT THIS EMAIL FROM SLUSH:  NOTICE ALL WAS FINE FOR 2 DAYS 18 HOURS...
