Do the cougar fans come with the fixation screws required, or do they need to be purchased separately ?
If so can you share the length/size of these screws ?

Thanks

No they dont have. You need +30mm screws. You need 1 spacer bolt or something or the cougars go too deep and fan will hit the frame.
Easy assembly but you need 2 screws & bolts for each fan. Maybe 4... i was lazy. Also my bolts were too long for top left corner. Anything longer than 40mm will hit 1 capacitor.

Thank you, just to clarify, will 30mm be insufficient, do i need more than 30mm screws

Also is anybody able to comment on the screw diameter and pitch required ? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unified_Thread_Standard

Would these screws, for example, work with a space nut ? http://www.pccasegear.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=83_388&products_id=25486

Looks perfect.
30mm is enough to get grip, if the spacer bolt is not too thick. Cougar has rubber in both ends so theres 1mm extra. Over 40mm will touch components in top left & right.

Try with 1 set.

BITMAIN is a smart person, while you are all yelling crazy drop , he know what he is doing, AM and bitfury, KNC... will be releasing their new chips very soon and the best move from BITMAIN is to drop prices as low as possible to empty the warehouse and get ready for the next Gen.

I would be interested about buying these miners only when the price is 0.5BTC and if this will happen in the next 2 weeks.


but again, he amazingly handle business, he really impresses me   good work BITMAIN   

[CroverNo]

Hats off to Bitmain for the latest price drop!! 

Stock will be flying off the shelf

Time to build Scotlands first Data Miner Center

Incoming order please 

[sikke]

They better have stock still. with this price these will selll Alot!! You can still mine 1BTC with Antminer no matter what. Next jump this week is "only" 12% Knc wont ship anything in next 100days. Maybe Coincraft A1 clones will hit the market but price diffrence is wayy too big atm.

New Coupons, OMG wheres the AA...Antminer-Anonymous... cant resist, must order more  i received 4 coupons and my last order was this morning. Before Price drop.

[ChuckBuck]

Wow, 0.999 BTC now!  Bitmain must have alot of these units to be able to drop these prices almost daily.

So tempting to jump in again, but I think I'll wait for the S2.

Can someone please point me in the right direction for the best thread on how to power this puppy?

Just got the S1 today and also got the following power supply:

EVGA 600B 80PLUS Bronze Certified ATX12V/EPS12V Active PFC 600W Power Supply 100-B1-0600-KR
http://www.amazon.com/EVGA-80PLUS-Bronze-Certified-100-B1-0600-KR/dp/B00EON40CS/ref=sr_1_1?s=pc&ie=UTF8&qid=1394461405&sr=1-1&keywords=power+supply

1) Am I going to need more than what it comes with?
2) I plan on buying another...could this power both or do i need to power another?
3) Is there a guide for dummies on how to hook up? I only have easy miners like avalons and such....I'm having a hard time understanding other instruction threads and they all give different advice

Thanks

Danny

You will need a paper clip to jumper the psu to turn it on.
No, you cannot power 2 AntminerS1's from a 600W psu.

This is for Bitmain to disclose, my company is looking to do big business with Bitmain, All I will say is this will be a very good miner and be one of the biggest competitors for other company's
