I'd probably get 1 or 2 to test out if the price is right.  I'm a wiser buyer nowadays.

Interested in 1. Also, in the price-conscious category.

I'd also be in for 1-2, most likely.  Thanks for taking the lead on this, waldohoover.

Sounds good, got you added.  Smiley

Thanks.

I just noticed the power spec in the OP:

"Power Consumption: 390 W on wall
Power Supply: 4 +12V DC input, PCI-e connectors"

I have a bunch of Corsair CX500s that powered BFLs, Cubes and S1s and never complained (they barely get warm).  The S1 pretty much draws about the same as an S3 at the wall so one CX500 should be sufficient for one S3 (about 74% load on the single 12V rail at around 86% efficiency).  However, most 500W PSUs including the CX500 only comes with 2 PCIe connectors.  Since the S3 requires 4 PCIe connectors, would it be kosher then to use 2 500W PSUs?  What would happen if one PSU breaks down in this type of setup?  I hope Bitmain changes this spec in the final version though as it doesn't make sense at all and only serves to provide more cable clutter.  Two PCIe connectors should be sufficient for the S3.

You could also buy some molex to pcie. So you could get 4 pcie on a 500W but I would suggest you to power this with a 600w min just in case.  Grin

Or...
They know that once S3 sales open, or even have the price released, it will kill the S2 on impact.
Can't say I blame them...if I had a product that was about to kill any hope of selling an existing product of mine I'd want to clear out the inventory first!

I only have a signature because I'm allowed.

I doubt that it will kill S2. reasons:

1. S2 is all in one box
2. S2 has power supply
3. S2 is much more DC compatible
4. S2 has a clearer upgrade path that was already promised.
5, S2 is $1.45/GH with coupon; If you count PSU cost, S3 parity point with S2 is at ~1.1BTC.

They literally just replied to my PM with the same quote from their OP.  Smiley

Either they are on the hush or  Huh

They probably don't need GB yet.

Wow really? We have to wait a week.  I'm sure they're waiting to get rid of the S2 orders.  But the concern is they might want to set the price above half of what the S2 currently is just to show off their shiny new toy.  Is it worth it?  Probably not the first round.  But let us hope I'm completely wrong the price in reality should not be over 1.1 btc at most.  Well at least I won't have to monitor the thread every 10 minutes.
