I am interested in an antminer S7 in the UK, but don't want to pay the crazy ebay prices which is more than from bitmain + customs duties id pay. This is to be used to solo mine for my experiment, I know finding a block is 'low probability' but why not : )
I do have a question mind, is it possible to underclock these well so I can put quieter fans on them? I do not mind sacrificing some hashpower! What sort of price would I be looking at? Preferably with a power supply. If I need to pay in bitcoin I would like to use escrow with ognasty.

Once you make freq 20% less on the s-7 it drops to 3700 gh
Fan swaps do not work well So
the way to make them silent (tolerable) is as follows.
Batch 1-7 stock clocks are about 600 drop to 480 set fans from 25 to 35% as long as temps read under 65c you are good
Batch 8 to 15 stock clocks are about 700 drop to 500 set fans from 25 to 35% as long as temps read under 65 c you are good
lastly get this

this hole allows the pcie wires inside

2 foot or less>> l l >>>>>>> 20 foot

the long exhaust allows directing the heat out of home. you can trim the length if you do not need 18-20 feet to exhaust the air
