Today I received my last S5+ and I feel well like scammed from BITMAIN. 1. No aluminium body. 2. one totally broken fan.

They will most probably release new batch soon and people will buy it. Broken fan feels like its been used for a while, is there actually a way to learn the age of the miner (through firmware perhaps)?

I don't think they showed a unit without it on S5+ so please share it with us. Mine is still working great.

Tupsu, man, why don't you post this in s5+ thread? not in a personal thread? @notlist3d: Too bad that you want to keep the warranty! really wanted to see some underclock and underclock, temps, and kw consumption ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif)

So, buy an S5+, break it up into 3 units, and re-sell? Is this something we're going to see happening on the used market? Would be really cool!

It looks like its aluminum but I could be wrong. Is it the fan you were saying is not aluminum? But yea hit up bitmain - https://bitmain.zendesk.com/hc/en-us and get a new fan.

@notlist3d: Too bad that you want to keep the warranty! really wanted to see some underclock and underclock, temps, and kw consumption ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif) Yes on this miner I want to keep warranty in tact. Chances are I would run on spec so I don't want to ruin warranty to get specs. If bitmain gave me permission without losing 90 day warranty I would try some other things, but I am not expecting this.

It looks like Tupsu's last S5+ is just missing the aluminum housing around the controller board. Is that the aluminum missing? Sucks about the fan. Sure they will probably make good replacing it, but at what cost to downtime?

I can't tell from this angle. You might be right the wires make it hard to tell, the controller is pretty compact so wires might be covering it up. I'm sure he will tell us though. And on downtime normally they don't do anything but I hope they do something for him. But I doubt it.

I was looking for plastic did not think of different metal material being used. You are right they have it on spec as "The S5+ uses an unpainted aluminum casing". Odd that they would have mistyped that.

Below is it currently running: looks very sexy ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif) I am extremely happy with it. I was worried about no network issue some had, it showed it mine does not have this from when I lost networking during middle of night. All hashing blades work to spec not a single X or issue. So out of 9 blades 0 issues. I would like to know if everyone who got one is as happy as me. If they all were such good units. I have not seen anyone post a defective one yet online, so I'm thinking even if it was a one batch thing it was well done.

S5+ is better built as S5. But only S5+ problem is - broken software . An S5+ is not working choice - Customize the fan speed percentage.Customize the fan speed percentage- works perfectly with S5 controller. S5+ single with S5 controller ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fi.imgur.com%2FOpekha6.jpg&t=665&c=eJe5Z5V60-patA) ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fi.imgur.com%2FxntMNTm.jpg&t=665&c=rwiM0RRJPJNpKA) Fan1 2,640 Fan2 2,400 Temp 62, 62, 65 Frequency 325 Fan1 3,480 Fan2 3,480 Temp 53, 51, 55 Frequency 325

It appears someone who posted a while back user: Meat was passing out some links that were to fake bitmain site. - https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1157426.msg12228730#msg12228730 I don't know if he had one in here or not (hopefully not). But if you did click on a link from him when he was a user I suggest changing bitmain password, or any other site if you use shared passwords (and don't do this). Also turn on 2 factor on what ever sites you are able to.
