ANTMINER S7 is available at bitmaintech.com with 4.86TH/s, 0.25J/GH

Well done Bitmain for the new miner. Hopefully somebody will compete to lower your prices as i think this is selling for too much.

[coinbeast]

the components between the asics, look higher than the asics?

can the wb lay on the asics or will it lay on the other components?

thx!

I think R207 is higher, then asic chip.

I see. I bought those S5 cooling kits when I intended to keep my S5's. Later decided it was a good time to sell them right before the release of the S7. So now I have $1000 worth of useless water cooling LOL...

The length of S7 is 301 mm

The length of S5+ is only 275 mm

I did some extensive photo shopping of the pics from the S5+ board over the S7 ones on Bitmains products page and have      
decided to not risk it and set up some evaporative cooling.

[coinbeast]

It is now official. I have been given the go ahead from my wife to buy a total of 5 S7's along with 5 APW3-12-1600-B2 PSU's.

I had one coupon which I have used. I understand if people are sceptical about handing over coupons to new forum posters but I still would like to ask graciously if anyone is willing to donate to me, they can do so by sending it to user name Coinbeast.

I am a paranoid miner and only one of my friends even knows that I mine Bitcoin. I have not participated much on Bitcoin forums ever since posting on Bitmain talk where my user name absolutely and positively and without any chance of ever being able to add a custom username had to be the email address I have registered to Bitmain... e.g

FIRSTNAME.LASTNAME@YOUREMAILPROVIDER.COM

One day people will do anything they can to find early adopters and do what ever it takes to get their coin.

I am also looking for a S7 coupon before placing my order.

If someone is kind enough to send me one coupon

Thank you !


later edit : I noticed that I already recived one for earlier

Thank you so much to whoever donated it to me !

WELL we have competition now:)  Like i said you know they were dumping this year old tech on us as s7.. If Bitfury is at 16nm  Then Bitmain is aswell.. Dont be a fool and buy this machine unless you have free power.. The hashrate is going to explode or price will drop to where 16 nm is only thing profitable.. Again unless you have free power.

Good luck with your investments

bitfury is not going to expand the hashrate from 400ph to 1000ph.  but it sounds good.

I still say get yourself an s-7 asap not a shit ton of s-7's but a few of them if you can.

Time will tell if my guess is better then yours.

I'm looking forward to Phil's review of the S7 unit and his tweaks to it. If BITMAIN is smart, they'll send him his ahead of time to get the review out in the wild. Until then I'll wait and see his feedback.

I dont mind be wrong from time to time.  But you def cant discredit this info.. It wont take much of a net diff increase or price to fall to screw anyone of any chance of roi on this miner that doesnt have free power. All im saying is Buyer Beware This is a hobby miner only.. If you just want to support the network its cheaper to run a node im sure..

Hi,

I've just made a video about bitmain antminer s7. Not a review because it is not shipping yet...

https://youtu.be/BXnHmDXTq5U

thanks

.03 J/ghs....is this correct .31J/9.5GHs?   This is GREAT if true.  This would far exceed the capabilities of the 0.25 J/GHs of the Antminer S7.  Are my numbers correct?  Would it not be more EFFICIENT to purchase the Gekkoscience Compact?  By the way, thanks for the youtube video.

Bitfury makes their miners for data centers. Almost no one in US can use those miners because of the power draw, just like the S5+. That is why I like Bitmain so much, they create miners that the home user can actually run. To bad Bitfury does not make two different models, one for home users and one for data centers. Competition makes companies improve faster and reduces prices for public

Note:  The chips were in production in Feb 2015 and then announced again in Jun 2015.  This is a lot of talk about a product that is still mythical.

The force is strong with this one  

You might want to take a look at an interview with Bitmain head chief:

Well let me join the list of beggers and ask for 1 coupon for an s7

would really appreciate it..

Hmmm so apparently this is meant to be a home miner but I just can't believe that with the DB and the entry price, also the Ant router is going to have the newest chip in it, that is quite interesting as well.

"The AntRouter is its final stage of development. The first generation will use the BM1384 chip. " Not the new 1385!

[Finksy]

Anyone else notice this for S7 specs from the interview?

The S7 brings mining to a new level with Power consumption to Hash rate ratio. The density of the S7 at Chip count per device: 162x Hashrate: 5,200 GH/s (5.2 TH/s) Power consumption at wall: 1300W @ 90% PSU efficiency Power

Typo or updated figure I wonder? It would maintain the same 0.25 J/Gh as the released specs, maybe that is over-clocked?

It's Bitcoinist, the article is full of typos and formatting gaffes. That's their normal way of doing whatever it is they're doing (certainly not journalism).

Having said that, the chip had an announced hashrate of 32.5 GH/s, so 162 of those would be 5200+. Official specs list 93% PSU efficiency, Bitcoinist lists 90%. Perhaps the journo tried to do some misguided math.

Probably correct performance when overclocked.
Bitmain state 4,86 TH/s +/- 5%. Which would put normal operating range at 4.61-5.1 TH/s, at 1210W.

I can easily see this thing doing 5,2TH/s at 1300W.

Objections?

[RichBC]

Gotta say as a newcomer to this trying to draw information from the Net Bitmain seems fairly straightforward to follow. Real announcements of real chips, closely followed by real products, backed up with data sheets.

BitFury on the other hand is tricky... On their website all you just see in products is the 55nm BF864C55 with up to 0.5J/GH. Then the product BF4500 with 0.62J/GH  at the wall. OK so far.

Then in the press from the end of Feb 2015 we are told that they have "Completed manufacturing of it's anticipated 28nm chip" 0.2J/GH. However I can find no mention of a product based on the 28nm chip? Then in the same article.

 "BitFury continuously improves its market-leading technology and we are already hard at work on the next generation 16nm chip that is expected to achieve 0.06 J/Gh this year."

Now we are told that the 16nm chip "first revealed to be in  production in February" has taped out? All very confusing...

So have Coindesk mixed up the 28nm & 16nm information, or are Bitfury, who I have no doubt working on all of the above, just issuing pre-emptive spoiler releases in reaction to Bitmain's actual products?

If I'm not mistaken Bitfury only sells to bulk buyers/mining companies. Bitmain is only ASIC provider to sell to the open public (atleast as I know of).
Edit: The 55nm products are from back in the day when they sold to the public.

based on the s-5 being able to do 400 or 406 freq    vs   350 stock   ..  

  I can see the s-7 doing 5300th if you can keep it cold.  Big if  since it is very small in size.
