Guys calm down about the PSU. I've ordered an S2 and will do a setup guide and review - if it burns my flat down then I'll let you know  In all seriousness, I'll obviously check power consumption and PSU spec'ing. How did you manage with customs ? I know Juan from 112 does not ship direct UK. I've never had a problem with UK customs, but I'm VAT registered so it makes no difference either way - I just claim it back later. Also dusted off my 1500W single PSU in case we need to do any heavy testing for the cooling mods  |

Unlike traditional banking where clients have only a few account numbers, with Bitcoin people can create an unlimited number of accounts (addresses). This can be used to easily track payments, and it improves anonymity.

I know it's a bit early for this, but do you guys think they should make like a s1.5 or s1 revision 2 so it would be 200 gh/s 200 watts?Technically its feasible as basically your cutting a s2 into fifths. Think that would sell like hot cakes  |

Think that would sell like hot cakes there is no reason to. The S1 was 4.75BTC when it came out, with a bitcoin price higher than it is now. It is now only 1/5th of that. In 6 months from now the S2 will cost <2BTC From my POV, bigger is better. less wires, more cost effective. |

Think that would sell like hot cakes The problem you run up against is shipping costs. At current prices shipping makes up a significant portion of the price of the S1. Time to move on to bigger and better things. If you really want 1/5 of an S2 you should start or join a group buy. |

Dam, that thing is 2000W for only 360 GH/s ?!!!  The Chinese do know how to make knockoffs. This thing is a longer, shittier, power consuming double S1. |

I think the design is pretty sick though and well cooled and easy rack mounted |

Yeah I highly doubt the S2 is drawing 1000 watts and has a 1000 watt supply. you don't build out a 24/7/365 device to have its power supply pinned to max with an expectation it will last. |

Draws 1000 watts from the wall Assuming 90% is actually wattage used with gold psu, that's only 900 watts.

This thing is a longer, shittier, power consuming double S1. 2000watt yet they are powering it with a 750watt supply... I would guess the 2000 watt statement is inaccurate in some way It might be that multiple ones of those units makes up a 380GH/s purchase. There's only 64 ASICs on there, and the Clam is an 8 core device with a nominal clock speed of 320MHz, so 2.56GH/s per chip nominal. Even with what the datasheet said is overclocked speeds (420MHz) that's only 3.3GH/s each. Unless things have changed significantly since they published the DS you'd probably need 128 chips to hit 380GH/s. The datasheet also 3 J/GH at nominal clocks, so while 2000W seems high, if they are running the chips harder 2000W could be close to possible. |
