Thanks for the all the replies on the power supply. I didn't realize the Enermax is multi-rail like the LEPA 1600. I can't believe they raised the price already thought.

This has been done before by them on more then one occasion. I have to clock their btc addy try to figure out their sales on this.

Yesterday the BTC price was about 480$ and today at 540$ Maybe thats the reason?

I see it as a good thing and we will all adjust or it goes under and eth steps in . or we get 12.5 or so less coins and over time it gets a little harder to hit a full BTC of 12.5 coin per like now, I'm not to sure if the difficulty is affected by the block change if it's not it should go about like LTC did and after it all adjusts out we get less coins per block with the same usually complaints, me included. . ..and the price goes up but this time stays up and in four years it happen again.. this reminds me of the time change a few years back from 1999 to 2000 the 2k so called bug nothing really happen and life went on . I may buy one of these or wait see what happens to the Avalon 6 price i got a feeling we won't see any of the new miners with new chips till around the middle of June to the end of July sadly. unless they go sell in the next day or 2 we sure as hell won't see them in May for sell to the public in gen.

I'd rather not have the PSU. I'm NOT fond of Enermax power supplies in general (had way too many dead ones still in warenttee), and a 1000 watt unit on that miner is overkill anyway (a good 850 like the Seasonic X850 Gold or the EVGA G2 in that ballpark would make a LOT more sense), but too small for any other useage I'd want to put it to.
Then again, looks like they might have had to go to a 1000 watt unit to get enough PCI-E connectors - my X850s only have 6 of them....

Well they are obviously trying to get rid of some datacener PSU's. Otherwise it wouldn't even make financial sense to include PSU in $270 USD.

So, I bought one of these. Mostly because I want to play with volt adjusting and I actually have need of a beefy ATX PSU.

How do you adjust the voltage on these? Is there an option or do you need to solder a variable resistor?

I'm sure it'll require hardware hacking; best case, it'd take jacking into a DPOT's I2C line. Probably pretty much the same as the 135-chip S7 "repair" thread.

I'm a little confused. If this is just 2 blades of a S7 with 90 chips (45 per blade compared to the 3 blades of a S7 with a total of 135 chips) and the chips are clocked at the same 700M, then shouldn't it be 3.15 TH/s (instead of the 2.7 TH/s)? Or am I missing something here? I see that the power usage is less than 2/3 (866W vs. 700w is about 81% of original), so the efficiency is corrected for the 2.7 TH/s to 0.25 J/GH. Or do I have this wrong?
EDIT: I think that the 700M is an error and that they are running at 600M (this is the speed I had my S7 running and it was putting out about 4.05 TH/s).
Shipping is about $55 with FedEx to So. Cal.
Also, when someone gets one, please post pics on how the PS bracket is attached to the S7 case? I'd be interested in just picking up the PS bracket if available.

Yes I agree the obvious Maths do not add up. I had assumed that it was merely a 2 Board version of the 700MHz 3 Board 135 Chip S7. So either the clock speed must be less than 700MHz or the Hash Rate of the chips at 700MHz must be lower or they just got the maths wrong... Rich

I agree that something looks off. The website for this miner suggests that it's running at 700 MHz, then the figures don't work out right. It would be really attractive for somebody to get their hands on one and do a proper review. Maybe they got some overall power reduction in the fans, but that doesn't cover the hashrate and frequency discrepancy.

2.7TH is dead on for 90 chips at 600MHz. Given that a lot of the listing looks like it was copied directly from an S7 page, saying 700MHz instead of 600MHz wouldn't be the only error in the info.

Yesterday I received s7 silent. Chips frequency 600, temp 45/48 but I have cold room. Fan speeds 2700/3000 and I have to told you that is really silent.
