1  Bitcoin / Hardware / Re: Noctua NF-F12 iPPC-3000 PWM vs Corsair SP120 PWM on Antminer S5 on: August 17, 2015, 07:22:14 AM
I also gave a Noctua 140mm fan a go.

I figured, this model "Noctua IndustrialPPC NF-A14" has a maximum effect of 156,5 CFM, which is significantly more compared to its 120mm model (109,9 CFM) as well as 2 dBA quieter.
This model http://www.amazon.co.uk/computers/dp/B00KESS5L4/ref=sr_1_7?ie=UTF8&qid=1439794766&sr=8-7&keywords=noctua+140mm

At the same time, to be able to fit it on the S5, I got a 140mm to 120mm adapter.
This model http://www.amazon.co.uk/Bitspower-BP-FA140120-BK-140mm-120mm-Adapter/dp/B003U3RTEO/ref=sr_1_10?ie=UTF8&qid=1439795104&sr=8-10&keywords=140mm+120mm

When it all arrived, I was expecting magic to happen, I was sure that I cracked the "code". No more fiddling with fan speed needed, and no more unnecessary noise. But that was short lived, as soon as I put it all together and started up the S5, it all came crumbling down, and I was back to square one. The fan did not perform nearly as good I as expected, at 26 degrees room temperature, it was running at max speed and keeping the miner at a constant temperature of 60 degrees. The noise at max speed (41.3 dBA), even though supposedly quieter than its 120mm brother, was considerable and once again louder than the original fan running at 35%. So yeah, one more bummed out experiment to nag about.

My next planned experiment, 2 x Cooler Master JetFlo 120mm max effect 95CFM - 28 dBA.
But this time, I am not as optimistic.

Here is my two pennies worth on the subject.

I did buy a single (just push) Noctua NF-F12 iPPC-3000 to see just how well it would perform compared to the original jet engine.
Even at full speed (2780 rpm) it could not cool the miner properly at 26 C room temperature. It would keep the miner at a constant of
63 degrees Celsius. About the same performance as the original at 35% fan speed. But the noise of the original at 35% is lower (and somewhat duller)
than the noise Noctua NF-F12 iPPC-3000 produces at full speed. Based on this experience alone, I would be hesitant to call the Noctua NF-F12 iPPC-3000
an upgrade.

but this calculator shows me that daily i can earn 3$. with
Hash Rate (GH/s): 1155
Power (Watts): 750
Power Cost ($/kWh): 0.05

url: http://www.coinwarz.com/calculators/bitcoin-mining-calculator/

The S5 does not use 750W as such, it is good to have a PSU which can provide more than what the S5 needs, but you should count on around 590 - 600 watts if you run it on default (350).

Zagamon, it is none of your bussiness and I think your IQ is below room temperature.

In such a cranky mood... Oh... Did your donkey cheat on you? I am so sorry  Embarrassed
Because my IQ is so low, I did not relies I was addressing a delusional rural ape with Napoleon complex, I will from now on though, forgive my "slowness" oh great one.

sorry guys i made a mistake...   i want to buy antiminer s5 not s5+
https://bitmaintech.com/productDetail.htm?pid=00020150725135246063Xsvs9J9J06AE

In that case, you need a 750W PSU minimum.

hello there,



i want to start mining, and therefore i am planning to buy s5+ antiminer with corsair cx600 watt power supply. How much can i earn running this miner for 1 month??

in my region  Power Cost ($/kWh) is 0.05$....... Smiley



It is going to be very challenging to run the S5+ with a 600W PSU, considering it requires total of 3436W.

Hvor køber i jeres bitcoin mining udstyr henne ?

Jeg kunne godt tænke mig enten en Avalon eller en spondoolies sp20
Men hos producenterne er de altid udsolgt tænker om der var nogle butikker inden for EU der sælger udstyr ?

Mvh Sharkown

Det meste af det er brugt. Du kan enten købe brugt i nogle EU online butik (sandsynligvis tysk) eller importere dem selv 
direkte (sandsynligvis fra kina). Det er værd at nævne, at import er billigere, men tager længere tid.

Spondoolies modeller er udsolgt i et stykke tid nu, derfor kan du ikke importere dem fra producenten (fra Israel), så du kan prøve at
finde nogle på ebay i stedet.

Her hvad Spondoolies svar "Due to high demand our current machines are sold out. We are working hard on our next generation
products and will not be offering the current machines again. It is still too early in the development cycle for us to announce a
production schedule. We do expect to roll out our new products in the next several months.
"

Antminer S5 er et meget populært valg og kan nemt findes mange steder online.

For eksempel...
Direkte import fra Bitmaintech https://bitmaintech.com/productDetail.htm?pid=00020150725135246063Xsvs9J9J06AE

Why all caps?

Because it is a head line.


My little screamer, find first the Edit button .
After that I will perhaps  answer to  your question   Wink

I do not care.If some body cares and help I really appreciate, if not it is ok too. Nobody has an obligation to help another.

But no one can tell me what to do or not.

Get off your high horse, it is not about somebody telling you what to do.
All caps is considered rude, and not many fancy helping rude people.

Protact.net has sold real miners and I have trusted them.Little expensive miners yes but they really delivered.So I spilled my morning coffee when I saw that they are selling this Yesminer.I cannot believe 20Th/1.5kW.I wouldn't trust that they will ever deliver that.
AHA! So they are the real deal. I am thinking, either...

A. They know something we don't about Yesminer.
B. They want to go out with a boom, you know, get a piece of the Yesminer cake. in which case, they once again know something we don't.
C. Their investment department is ruled by mad leprechauns.

All of the above of course being nothing more than pure speculation.

Yesminer is too good to be true, just like the Hashcoins Uranus (I know XD), I hope I am wrong, but for now I am skeptical.

Looks like they still have some in stock.

It certainly looks that way. If it is too good to be true, it is probably not true.
How many so called pre-orders will they be able to sum up I wonder...
13  Bitcoin / Hardware / Re: ANTMINER S5+ is available to order, 7.722TH/S 0.445J/GH on: August 14, 2015, 02:40:01 PM

I don't think you can use only 2x PSUs. According to bitmain's product info
Quote
Do not connect more than one PSU to the same hashing board!

I don't see why not.
As I understand, there are 9 boards, just go 5/4.
14  Bitcoin / Hardware / Re: ANTMINER S5+ is available to order, 7.722TH/S 0.445J/GH on: August 14, 2015, 02:29:17 PM
So we need to buy 3x PSUs to power this thing?

Or just two of these https://www.protact.net/netzteile/6/servernetzteil-mit-2.250-watt-und-12-pci-express-stromanschluessen?c=8 (I am guessing).
15  Economy / Scam Accusations / Re: Yesminer M20 / M10 on: August 14, 2015, 01:34:01 PM
What about this shop https://www.protact.net/ they offer the unit too, as well as the S5 and the new S5+.
That's the "known German reseller".  Either take the gamble (it's your money) or wait for the promised 'more information' later this month.

Not in a rush at all, nor do I fancy the idea of "gambling".
When you say "known German re-seller" do you mean that seriously, are they truly known and people actually purchased whatever from them and got them delivered? I am asking, because even though the Yesminer looks very dodgy for the time being, we know for a fact that the Bitmaintech products are very real. I for one would not mind knowing a decent re-seller inside EU borders.

First look, no red flags to be aware of, but they do lack privacy policy  and a few other things on the page.

Has anyone purchased anything from them?

There we go! It is official now, cheers to that.
18  Bitcoin / Hardware / Re: Wierd Behaviour on Antminer S5 on: August 12, 2015, 01:01:50 PM
Hello guys, so i have by now like 10 S5, i bought them  at different times so they probably are different batchs but i have noticed this wierd behaviur in most of my S5

Has it happened that at some point of the day one blade will shut down for lets say 5 minutes, and then turns it self on again and continue to work?  i have had to sent to Bitmain 2 broken blades because they stopped working, so everytime i see one blade shut down i kind of freak out.

I got the Used Antminers yesterday and also happened before to me that you turn on the miner and after 5 minutes one blade stop working so i have to do a hard rese ssh reset won't fix the issue

This has happened in all firmwares, but i just updated to July 11.

Did you at any point notice random beeping even though the temperature is way below 80C?
