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

I suspect it can but via ssh not the gui.

Is there a way to persist the cgminer config after setting load balancing through SSH?

So who here is the one that bought 2200 BTC worth of miners yesterday?

That's normal...  About 525 to 550 x S7's or 2,480 TH/s to 2,600 TH/s.  Very normal.

about 0.5% of EVERYTHING.

I'd like to buy a coupon if someone has one. PM me.

[icside]

Somebody must have a batch 6 that can confirm / deny the existence & output voltage specs of a buck converter on Batch 6 units.

Also, more rumors about batch 9, pls.

[pj40]

batch 8, ordered 12-2, shipped 12-10, will receive on 12-14 (damn weekends)

But still 'normal' given the difficulty growth over the past couple of periods ... even if it settles down to 10% this time that's 56 PH added to the network in 12-13 days.

It seems like the most profitable time to mine was Jan - Sept of this year - price flat, difficulty flat, and mining equipment appreciated during that time frame. Those days are gone for now...

Yes, The good old days of mining are long gone. The difficulty will settle down to +35% next week.

The most profitable time to mine was the very early early days or 2012/2013.  You guys have been chasing pennies since then.   All I can say is that I'm quite pleased I was buying BTC instead of miners the last year.

BAck to topic at hand.  Batch 8.  It has arrived, it is plugged in.  

REVIEW BATCH 8:
- I like the airplane turbine fans, now I can dry wood, or start an after-flooding disaster company which will dry your house
- manual set at 40%
- Setup is actually a bit of a pain in the ass, as you have to be patient 3-5 minutes for things to update.  soft reset 2-3 times, as one board didnt show up for some reason.
- 4450-4668ghs avg after 5 minutes.
- Fan speed 3360/3240, temps 46 to 49

I'm going to lower the fan speed, see if I can get hashrate up a bit.  So far a bit slower than advertised.  power supply evga g2 1600w on a dedicated 20A 120v circuit with 20A plug.

edit:  3000rpm, 50-53c temps, all is smooth, 4670avg.  so thats pretty much it.  error rate 0.015%  (hw, diffa, diffr)
editedit:  also firmware is from nov 17

Anyone using the bitmain 1600watt psu? I need to pick up some more power supplies for my s7's and considering some of these. What type of plug wire does it come with?

Should have clarified to mean in the ASIC era ... anyone that bought an S5 in January did pretty well considering their resale value.

fuck i have ordert my s7 and now take a look to the diff and the network hashing speed  

Bitcoin Difficulty:   79,102,380,900
Estimated Next Difficulty:   92,875,607,752 (+17.41%)
Adjust time:   After 1336 Blocks, About 8.0 days
Hashrate(?):   726,154,086 GH/s

New Miner on the road or everyone restart the old miner on the high BTC value?

Combination of both in my opinion, but as long as the BTC price stays at this point, or increasing, the profitability of mining has gone up at a rate faster than the difficulty has increased.

Just found a Hosting Company to take a few S7s and run them for me.  Has anyone heard of or conducted business with:  ASICSPACE in Wenatchee, WA 98801 USA?  http://www.asicspace.com/

Let me know if you know anything.  Thanks!

You will want to consider theses posts. Especially the "Stay away from ASICSPACE" post..!

Not sure what you're asking. This page: https://bitmaintech.com/productDetail.htm?pid=000201505040743496917U7kGsCm0694 pretty much explains it all, and has photos of all the PSU connectors. The AC input is IEC320-C13 (no cable is included; you have to provide your own); the 12V output is 12 PCI-E 6-pin cables.

I'd go with one of the Canadian companies for the best rates. Anyway, here's a list of hosting companies:
