I did before posting, just checking the forum to see if anyone else sees the same ... Advania Tech say they can't see a problem. 

I'll check/monitor again in a while to see what the temps are.

I have two SP10s at Advania, and they show 31 °C and 41 °C input temps respectively all evening ... way higher than normal.

Anybody else got a machine there and seeing an increase in input temps?

+1 this is 'required reading' for miners.

DONE

And yes, I deleted my own post, your link is good now.

Well ckolivas I'm up for it ... anyone else?

x2 Antminer S4 $200 Coupons for sale at 0.1 BTC each.

PM if intesested.

EDIT:SOLD

This is a good news, so many must look at pools with 1hr+ shifts and jump in, thinking BitMinter with its 12hr+ shifts will take days to fill.

The psychological angle is HUGE, good move Doc.

Too true ... Rule 1: NEVER buy the first incarnation of anything related to BTC mining with Bitmain. They will learn from any problems and refine.

Then the price may ... (should) ... drop, but so will the rewards with ongoing difficulty.

No rug ... they'll go into the racks at HashNest

I know the S4 will never ROI, but I'd love to know what sound level they are talking about, to quote:

"* Stable but a little bit noisy".

  Decibel reading please Bitmain  

Makes me think home mining (if you bought one) might be LOUD affair.


OH ... and can I have that coupon for 0.4 BTC please 

I have a SP10 that refuses to mine in any other year than 2000 ... I love to 'retro' mine ... the rewards aren't quite in line though 

There is no 'positive' strategy, KNC are in their dying days of supplying home miners ... once they get the 'pain in the ass' customer out of the way ... they will rely on their deathstar (datorhall) and 'informed' investors for their meals, BTC and the odd 'PERK' ... 

So ... this is post #254 ... and all Bitmain had to do was announce the S4 at post #1 ... lol, so much speculation over those 252 posts.

  The cost of the Corsair box plus the miner cost and ongoing electricity costs ... do you think you will see ROI?

The S3 has a good airflow built-in, does the Corsair enclosure compete/improve that? CFM would have to be the same, unless the unit exhausts quicker than the S3 fans.

Good to hear, this 'mining game' is getting really rather thin on the rewards side as of late.

Well ... they give a price, which is a plus point - but ... to quote "the AIRE Miner is expected to deliver an unprecedented performance of approx. 4.5 TH/s with best-in-class power rating".

So ... 4.5THs isn't unprecedented ... and looks like they haven't nailed the hash rate or power usage yet (god I hate that term 'best-in-class') .. we all know simulations can turn out differently to the final product.

Yes, but that was a preorder ... you had to wait ... and Bitmain are changing their business model ... everything is evolving .. again.

LOL, I'm sure many are thinking it, but hadn't written it ... we'll chew it, solve it and move on ...  

I don't have a problem with cables normally, but unless you have incredibly good cooling, those units bottom right have a rather impeded airflow due to the spaghetti.
