Anyone powered his S7 using only 1 PCi-E 6 per board ?
I have powered them with only 1 cable per board for the last 2 days and they were working fine
Just today I read somewhere that it actually needs all 3 cables per board.

That's over 350W DC for 1 cable.  The connectors/pins are only rated for a maxijum of 324W, and those ratings aren't overly conservative given the demanding environments mining puts on them (vibration + high ambient temps).  Plug more cables into them, like now...

Edit: Plus it violates Bitmain's ridiculous warranty terms...

I'm doing 8 total, 2 each to outside boards and 3 to center plus controller. That way I can use 2 dell 750 PSU with 8 cables. Using high quality 16awg cables and breakout boards. No issues. Been monitoring temps of connectors and cables. Avg connect temp is 79F. Miner runs at 55-59c and ambient temp is 69-72F.

That would be 175w per cable on the boards with 2 plugged in. Consumer PSU may not handle this since cables are lower gauge and will heat up more.

I have dell 750 server PSU also...can you PM where you bought your breakout boards

Interesting thanks for update.  Are you able to say will this be last of this design for sale?  

I would love if you confirm leak of Mr. Lee

New s7 information
bitmain told me that new s7 will be released to market after another 10 days, so should be on 10th Nov, they deduce the chip amount on s7, so the hashrate of new s7 will be only around 3.5T. The price for new s7 still under discussion and will be released next week

I don't expect response but figured did not hurt to ask.

B2 and B3 are gone from bitmaintech website, I guess about an hour before new batches show up.
Oops,  forgot time change.

[adaseb]

Still the same price as before, $1700 and $1800. Wonder why they didn't raise the prices. I am sure people would pay more.

[MaximeAD]

I was wrong too, I was expected a bigger price increase. Well, that's nice .

[marvykkio]

raised prices, instead of decreasing them get up, that sucks

There you go...

There you go

I had a feeling they would... so you get less mining time and pay higher price then batch before you.  It sucks every time they do this.

Batch 3 - 1658 USD
Batch 5 - 1799 USD

[yslyung]

paid, bit the bullet hope it comes on time.

The price increase is one thing... I also dont understand why you will have to wait at least 20 days after payment for the miner to ship

Avalon is rumored to have a miner coming out this month so they could be trying to beat avalon to the sales.

Also will be interesting if a smaller S7 ever comes true fro Mr. Lee's leak.


Below is approx price of S7 it is significantly better to buy now then in past:
Batch 1 -  1823 USD approx 240 per coin = 7.59 BTC
Batch 3 - 1658 USD approx 260 around oc 16th , 230 around the oct 22 = 6.37 to 7.20 BTC
Batch 5 - 1799 USD approx 380 per coin = 4.73 BTC

Bought 6 units for 48 btc, price diff: 20 btc.
I have not mined 20 btc in the time I got mine before you. Like 2 btc up til now for my B1.

Part of reason I did the chart was in hope to get people in early batches, just like you coupons or something.  It is a slim chance I'm not counting on it.

But I was hoping maybe if people saw the huge difference ... maybe bitmain will listen if enough people speak.  Or maybe not, the could say it's based on price of bitcoin nothing they could do.

[yslyung]

yeah, coupon for early birds & the loooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooong WAIT ! excluding "unexpected" delays.

[philipma1957]

coins are 388 as I type.  I have two choices  buy 1 more s-7  or cash 5 coins.

I have 3 s-7's  and a few compac sticks.  I sold everything else I had last night.

if I order one more s-7  and prices tank it is a pretty greedy move.

Bears and bulls do okay but pigs get slaughtered.

hmm decisions

[yslyung]

Shipping may start between Nov. 23 ~ Dec. 3 (if shipped out 10 days later than it, it won't be considered as delay ).

Dec3rd +10 days = Dec 13th + shipping time to door is roughly 5 working days excluding weekends so make it 7 days

= Dec 13th + 7 days

= Dec 20th excluding any "unexpected/unforeseen" delays

= if anything more than that then expect to get miner AFTER 1st Jan 2016 due to peak/holiday/busy season


lots of thoughts & decisions

tbh, I would humbly advise not to even think about Nov 23rd delivery, always expect the worse as it is clearly stated "Shipping MAY start"

Happy 2016

Or you can hold the coins.
