guys, where can i get A3 firmware?

[Marvell2]

OK, so after reading all of the last bunch of pages..  I guess it was a good idea that I swapped the A3 I had for two S9's?
Considering that they are 980 USD now and profitability went down so drastic.

So on siamining.com it shows 1.35 SC per GH/day.   = 1100  x .04 cents = 44.01 per day.    Two S9's make about that too I guess :-)

And that profit level will drop even more.  It is however not dropping as fast as the first couple days. WOW.  I knew it would happen, but I didn't think it was going to be that quick. 

Be happy though, as long as you are higher than 20 dollars like an S9 is bringing in, you are still ahead of the game.  That is 0.7 SC per GH/Day.

Or hold onto your SC and become a millionaire when its worth more than 4 cents.

I am so glad I am out!  Learnt a lot!

S9 and A3 in hand now are pretty much a wash, if you got two S9 for one A3 though you did quite well

Which SIA pool is best for A3? Is it possible set bch payment on antpool?

Foe next 45 days S9 makes $15.00 p/d versus A3 at $50.00 per day.

lol thats what I'm trying to tell him , I have a bunch of s9s and difficulty went up a ton in jan they are making half what the made back in early jan lool

S9 might be better in the long run after the march batch of A3 is released but for now its better to have 1 A3 than two s9 lol

I had mine up and running since Friday afternoon and have seen the coin rewards drop down to 44.75 coins an hour currently.  I got an offer to sell it and am wondering if I should or just keep mining away.

[Boneyg001]

a3 will be 5$ by end of march 

Ffs bitmain first you fuck me on my antminer d3 and now a3...

$980? wtf they might as well release the next batch in April for $200 since by June I will be lucky to get 1$/day profit.

Raise your chickun army and go raid bitmain please. Chickun feathers in their mines will reek havoc.

[Msobh]

All of you knew that this is coming . soon you will earn only 10-15$ a day . The only way to solve this problem is by hodling your SIA and wait till it reach >1$
Enjoy the ASIC Ride

Looking for a bit of advice. My A3 antminer is only arriving tomorrow-the joys of living on the western edge of Europe!

Now the real pain is that I've found out today that bitmain only dispatched the Apw3++ psu today (despite numerous tickets requesting that both the psu and miner be shipped together). Anyway I'm looking at another 10 days or so before the psu arrives. Not great.

I have a Corsair HX1000i psu (i.e. 1000W) running on my ethereum rig. My question is, would it possible to use this psu on the antminer a3 and underclock the A3 until the Apw++ arrives? Any advice welcome!

Get a compatible PSU from Ebay/Marktplaats/Amazon and sell your new AWP3++ when it arrives?

Thanks, yeah the problem with that, where I'm based (Ireland), the quickest I can get a 1600W psu delivered from Amazon.co.uk is about 1 week. I can't find any suitable psu that I can pick up locally quickly

you can use multiple PSU's, just make sure each hashboard is dedicated to a single PSU, don't split the a single hashboard's connectors across multiple PSU's.

Thanks, are there 3 hashboards on the A3? Would another option be for me to connect my current 1000W psu to just two of the hasboards and run it at 66% capacity (i'm new to asics) until the apw3 arrives?
