I am kind of lost on your post. Unless you give us a price how do you expect anyone to host with you?
If you want to keep it secret, fine but you haven't pmed me with the info either.
Prices in the USA range from $75 up per kWh.

SMH, someone just doesn't 'get' it. Either way. I won't deal with you, so move on and leave my thread.
Please. I'm obviously not getting it. Explain to me how it makes sense to purchase with you, when I've had nothing but good experiences purchasing directly through Bitmaintech.com, and it's cheaper to acquire a "brand new" S5 directly through them, rather than paying $375 for the honor of dealing with an honest and upstanding member of this community like yourself ? Please stop being so childish and realize you're not wanted. Now leave my thread.. AGAIN. |

Exactly, thus people that aren't interested in buying said product should Butt out and move on, instead of flapping their insulting BS to the seller.  Back to the OP. What's your Hosting /KWH pricing like? Please PM me with info and all fees, charges, etc.. etc... Thanks |

Another SP20 GONE.  |

2x Antminer S5's. Working 100%, very low usage (I only used them for a few months) $375.00 each
I can buy these "brand new" for $340, directly from Bitmain. Then do it and good luck to you. Don't be too mad because I didn't accept your low-ball, insulting offer.  ... insinuating I want to buy an S5 at an even more over-inflated price to begin with ... Good luck to you. SMH, someone just doesn't 'get' it. Either way. I won't deal with you, so move on and leave my thread. |

thanks for that td. and i havent forgotten about your refund. will send it asap. Been ill for the past few days so not been at the computer much.

It's ok, nice to see you being active with support and on here . Thanks don't say that Already waiting for more than 24 hrs for refund. Over the past 2 months that I've used them for renting and being a renter, I wouldn't worry about it. |

Sorry about hijacking your thread, I'm honestly interested in buying the miners, but for some reason the market for used miners is frankly outrageous. For some reason people seem to think these should sell for what they were originally priced at new or in some cases even more (ebay.com).
I've got more power being delivered next week to my small hosting space, when that's delivered, I'll make an offer, but I'm thinking in the ~300 per range, if that's not something the seller would be interested in at all, I understand, but I think paying more than that for used gear when next gen is around the corner is crazy.
....Around the corner...... Really? You mean possibly at the end of the year!? On here people KNOW the prices and market, so no need to low ball or mis-lead with prices you could never fill yourself. I understand buying low, sell high, but when you try to back your comments with fake info, it just makes you look......like an ahole.  If someone doesn't like the prices, MOVE ON.  |

On mine at around 1KGH/s (480-530watts) I get a 20-30watt difference at the wall between them.
Some better than others.

I have 4 of each, the SP20Es run about 5% more efficient and two or three degrees cooler.
That's about right from what I see with my SP20 and SP20e's. |

So what are the 2 numbers then?
Used to update quicker to my current hash rate. At least I think I remember that.
5m/1hr Since you didn't disconnect, it still shows the 1hr number even though you resumed mining for less than 1hr. Normally when you first connect it doesn't show the 1hr number until after 1hr  Ahh, yes. Now I understand. Thanks |

Kano, did you change the hash rate info display?
I just noticed it shows : Hash Rate:17.40/4.87THs for me right now, even though I have verified I am sending 17TH to the pool.
Thanks

Something must be up. I used to get payments without a hitch and 'Estimated Change' was always correctly added after a block. Now it just seems to add much less even though the hash rate is more even. Wierd.
Also, now AFTER 2 block were solved, it says I am 142.35BTC BEHIND the payment queue... WYH? I was at 138BTC BEFORE the last 2 blocks.. |

Okay, thanks everyone, I was not aware the sp20's could be tweeked so optimally. Sounds like I'll be getting 2 sp20's instead of the S5's. I wanted the S5's because of the lower wattage draw when compared to the sp20, but now knowing they can be tweeked down then I'll definitely go with the sp20's. Thanks for the help again, knowledge is power and you guys are the kings!!!
No prob. Good luck, and check the classifieds for deals. |

So maybe I ought to really look into buying the sp20's instead of the s5's? Sounds like they are quieter w/o need for any modifications. I'm sure the initial cost is a little higher, but I thought an sp20 needed 1150 watts to run per the manufactures' website? Now I'm confused...is there a low speed on the sp20 or do you guys have them tweeked to run at lower watts?
I have to say, the interface and design IMO on the SP20's is the nicest I've seen on ANY miner. PLug and Play, under and overclock settings easily changed, fan everything. If you want to adjust the Fan to below 10%, there are 2 ways to do it, either vie the webgui or SSH into the unit. I can even help with that if you want later on. |

Noise will be an issue as well as heat. For sure I will change the stock fans with deltas and probably only run one S5 during the hottest summer months...but from my understanding of what you're saying the S5's are much louder than the sp20's? I guess my prorities are pretty much in order of: wattage per tg/s, heat and then noise.
From what I've researched, the sp20 pulls about 1.3-1.4 tg/s at 1100w, and an S5 pulls about 1 tg/s at 600w. Is that an accurate comparison?
My SP20E hashes at 1230-1235 GH at 680-683w at the wall S5 (sold all after hashing for a while with them) were ~1150 at 620-630w at the wall or ~1180-1200 overclocked at ~650w at the wall However, SP20E produces 1230-1235 GH at fan setting 10, which is very quiet, while S5 default is SUPER loud and modded with two quieter fans (either deltas or Noctua/Scythe at the cost of ~$40) is still a little louder than SP20 at fan 10. basically a draw with slight edge to SP20 to interesting interface that is fun to play with. S5 is slightly (~5%) more energy efficient at low speeds for SP20, but Sp20 is slightly more productive. Exactly what I get. I have (had) 20x SP20's and 2 S5's (for testing). The S5's on my killawatt meter use 630Watts at stock speeds and temps in the 60C range, so fan at FULL. LOuD AS HELL and annoying, even in my garage. AMbient temps are 70F and below. IMO the open design of the S5 is just BAD unless you're in a temp controlled data center. The SP20's I run at 490-520Watts and get between 980-1060GH/s. With fan at 5% in my office, I used to run two of them at 70F Ambient. Temps on the miners never got above 70C, and the DIES never above the 85C minimum shown. When I turned them up to 1150GH/s @ 600watts with the fan at 10% the temps still did not go past 77C and although I had to turn the TV volume higher in my office, I could still work. Now I run them at 550/1.1K in the basement at 30% fan speed and no worries. |

Sorry to rehash the thread, but I just bought a EVGA 1200w P2 power supply I found on sale yesterday to couple up on an sp20 or some S5's. Debating between the sp20 and the S5, it looks as though I might be better running 2 S5s and get better power use per tg/s than combining an S5 and an sp20. The S5's are easy to find at about $450, but can hardly locate any sp20's for sale and the price is significantly higher than the S5's. I'd like to stick in the 2 tg/s range since I'm a noob and see how this goes. Any thoughts about me thinking 2 S5's might be "friendlier" than an sp20 or an sp20 coupled with an s5?
Heat is one thing to worry about since I'm in Texas, that's why I favor the S5 over the sp20 here because lower watts.
They are about the same at the same speeds. The S5 is 'maybe' 30-40watts more efficient. At that speed you can run 2x of either on that power supply. But the S5 is WAY louder than the SP20's. If noise is a big issue you can modify the fan's. If you use 2 doing push/pull you can use quieter fans as it's splitting the load. S5 has some advantages at this point. It can still be bought new, and have a warranty. Still loud as HELL. An SP20 at same speed, cut Fan to 10% and is MUCH quieter than the push pull setup with deltas and other fans on the S5, otherwise they are not sufficient enough to properly cool the S5. |
