Do you have any experience running 4 stock fan on a single S5 BBB/Base plate? I'm thinking of making a 2x S5 and i'm worried 4 Stock fan running at full speed might burn the BBB if it can't support that much power?
Your input would be appreciated.
It is tested with S7 base plate with 6 fan connectors. 4 Stock fan. S5 base plate has only 2 fan connectors. |

I have no need to put the S5 controller work with S7 I get 2 free S7 controller each of the three S7. And as it turned out of tests, S7 controller works with 8 S5 blades.  |

so the 1 unit I have thats been a pain in the ass so far has dropped to 3.9TH over the weekend (with no dead asic chips) and stock 600 settings.. going to try a hard reboot via PSU and see what happens
still tons of HW errors, im going to drop freq to 593 and see what happens. BITMAIN replied to me via email and asked what PSU im using, asked to try different pool (im using antpool, go figure) , and asked me to plug in each hash board individually and take screenshots of their hash rates.. only problem with that is it seems to take a couple days for the hashrate to crash on this unit, and I don't really want to waste a week of mining testing on each hash board individually. hopefully the 593 freq will work out, i could live with 100GH loss instead of 900GH It really depends on the power supply. I use 6 board with one controller. My first choice was APW3-12-1600-B2 with 4 boards and EVGA G2 1300 for 2 boards and controller. Lower speed and over 57000 HV with 4 hours. I left APW3-12-1600-B2 for only 3 boards and for the other three boards + controller 1x DPS-2000 BB with 10x PCI-E. Speed is now over 9500 GH/s and HV ten times lower with 4 hours. |

I knew that they looked the same but for those of us who only have pictures was interested if they were actually the same and that you would be able to use an S5 BBB with a S5 baseplate with an S7 Hash Board? I am also assuming that the S7 software will become available at some point and that an upgrade for the S5 would be posible?
Rich
If you look at the image, it will not work very well with S7 software. Lower hashrate and 6 phantom blades.  Click to enlarge |

Hmm question was S7 hashboard on an S5 BBB with an S5 baseplate?
Rich
Why should I try this ? S5/S5+ maximum Frequency is only 500M and the S7 software is not yet available. With S5 software you get 5/6 from S7 frequency and lower hashrate. If you still do not know , S5+ and S7 BBB is exactly the same, the only difference is the software. S5+ and S7 uses BBB labeled as Model S5Bb/V1.51 |

OK now that we have cleared up the definition of a BBB & "Base Plate" can I return to a rephrased version of an earlier question. Has anyone actually tried running an S7 hashboard on an S5 BBB with an S5 baseplate?  Rich Yes. 3 x S7 blades with S5 controller baseplate and S7 BBB with S7 software. Click to enlarge |

I didn't expect that, it wouldn't be possible outright based on what mine looked like. I mean the S5 BBB only has 4 slots for cables. Did you solder more in? Could be interesting personally to make a 3xS5.

 Click to enlargeYour picture is from the older version of S7, manufactured from S5+ leftover components. Controller and housing. Now we have a new and "better" S7. Except this housing is difference to that of the S5+? The ones I saw certainly weren't extruded aluminium. New S5+ housing is from aluminium. Exactly the same shape as your old S7 miner.

For 8 board :1 ) full 2 ) full 3) blank 4 ) full 5 ) full 6 ) full 7 ) full 8 ) full 9 ) full they came and they are great. i will write a trust later today. here is a shot of my controller loaded for 6 boards. so: 1)full 2) full 3) full 4)full 5) blank 6)full 7) blank 8 )full 9) blank 2 custom long with 4 stock short this allows for 1 cat 5 not 2 and 1 unused controller Click to enlarge

Your photos are made from the older version of S7. The new S7 is with different controller (all data cable connectors is in one way) . Also, the housing is different from from the top. The older housing is from top smooth, like an your pictures.  Click to enlarge Click to enlarge"New" S5+ and "New" S7 |

That put my 2xS5 project to shame. So thats with a S5+ controller? I would very much like detailed pictures of this, any thoughts on starting a thread and showing off everything?
For the long cable, i'm still waiting on Jabberwock to get back to my PM, i will definitively need a couple. If you know another source, i'd be interested to know.
No. It is S5 BBB with S5+ software an S7 (not S5+) base plate with 9 long data cables. This is only temporary for testing, so more pictures did not come. It consists of 2 x double size S5 and another half of S5. I do not know yet, what data cable slot should left free, to work with only 8x S5 blade. Cables are from Jabberwock. Another option is soldering them longer by itself. |

It's pretty obvious that Bitmain will eventually release an "S7+" - already did most of the engineering for it between the S7 and the S5+.
Has anyone actually tried running an S5 hash board on an S7 controller yet, or a S7 hashboard on an S5/S5+ controller?
Now that there are quite a few S7's out there it would be good to have an answer to this question? Rich Yes. Biggest S5, which is been made.  Click to enlargeS5 BBB with S5+ software, S7 base plate with 9 long data cables. |

You guys run 2 S7 on 1 Controller ? Why ?
If you have to ask why, this is not for you.I want to use the S7 controller for 8 x S5 blade. It is 1 x water cooled S5 4,3 TH/s. Winter is coming. |

Thank you. Now working . EDIT.For 8 board :1 )full 2 ) full 3) blank 4 ) full 5 ) full 6 ) full 7 ) full 8 ) full 9 ) full @ Tupsu here is a shot of my controller loaded for 6 boards. so: 1)full 2) full 3) full 4)full 5) blank 6)full 7) blank 8 )full 9) blank Click to enlarge |

Okay more good news the controller runs 6 boards. I am doing it now .
..................
Share the secret of what data cable ports to use and what data cable port left free. Or a picture.

Your water blocks look different than mine. My water blocks has a lower end at a 90 degree angle.  Click to enlargeProbably you will earn less if you sell it in parts. But it's still money. Only from 8x S5 boards You can easily earn 800 USD or more. But nobody wants to pay for the work, what have you done with this miner. I sold of my 5 x C1 rebuilt to aircooled, since it was quicker and easier. |
