Fuck. And this when they informed me via email that it would be 440GHs through the life of the product... The ones I have now are barely stable at 218.75. *grumbles* WTF lol... The Eighth Batch of AntMiner S3+ Only Available at http://www.bitmaintech.comBitmain now announce the S3+, which is a revised version of S3 running stably at 453GH/s (frequency=225 MHz), while consumes 355 Watt power at the wall. Most of miners will be able to run up to 500GH/s but not guaranteed. I seem to have gotten lucky with my B5's at stock all doing ~440. That's why I'm confident about OC'ing.

And this is how you convert an old bathroom into a 2.6 Th/s antminer S3 farm. ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Feesx0q.bn1.livefilestore.com%2Fy2m8cId5TQ9xfY-agtYrGO-LA23xL36vET3oUeb2T0Go9S9iDsYscHNmthd_MYl4Q6id9gCFoV6sCWRbgdFGWl4yZaVWrF0UOo551Jz_V0Mc82rh852b_5TL-eU9fqQDQcP%2FToiletMiner%2520-%2520Small.jpg%3Fpsid%3D1&t=665&c=oL3jMAU3q-5l7A) All six miners and Corsair 750W PSUs exhaust out the back window. Fresh air is drawn through a cracked window on the opposite side of the bathroom. Each miner is stable at 218.75 stock frequency and averages 440 Gh/s per miner. 39C-40C average temps on each. I opted for one PSU per miner as I may decide to OC and got a good deal on them. May never ROI at my electricity rates but I'm more of a hobbyist anyway...and this was a fun project. ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) good one +

When your done OC'ing (editing the file) it says to reboot the system.
When back at the command line in PuTTy, can you do like a sudo reboot to reboot the system ?
I don't know in Putty (could be the same), but in Terminal, if you are still at the root prompt, type reboot, then hit enter/return.

Something to brighten everyones day/evening. Think this is a good sign. Difficulty w/8 period moving average. ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fi.imgur.com%2FfLVOgHG.jpg&t=665&c=aXwmr8du46_06g) You obviously haven't seen the projected numbers for the next difficulty adjustment. Doom AND gloom! And it's really going to screw up that nice chart. I have and watch it pretty close. Betting it'll look like that spike at the end of June then continue downward to bottom out in the single digit %'s over the next several months. One anomalous spike does not a trend make. % Difficulty increases are on and have been on a downward trend since last December (as the chart depicts and the numbers don't lie). As total network hash rate increases the manufacturing production hashing capacity becomes an ever decreasing % of total network hash rate. This will limit or throttle difficulty increases. This limit is dictated or caused by the rate that chip foundries can produce extremely custom chips (as the name implies Application Specific Integrated Chip). Now if Intel decided to jump on the bandwagon all bets are off. But the probability of that happening is lower than the quantum possibility that 1+1=3.

resellers stand to make a lot of money on ebay since 37 days are easily at least 0.25-30 BTC worth. add 0.25 to 0.58=.83, so everything in hand now below that will sell.

Just got my two Ant's from B6 today.
After running for 4.5 hours here's what they're doing.
Ant1 running at 439.18 average (218.75 freq) Ant2 running at 440.74 average (218.75 freq)
The only issues I had was with them initially turning on. It took 5-6 power cycles to get them to turn on, not sure why. After setting up the first one and changing the IP, had to do it all over again with both units to get them both up and running. I was worried for a bit there that they wouldn't turn on at all.

Maybe missed something? Excitement of getting these things can let your concentration down? Glad for you they work fine (:

You get that with every piece of hardware I guess... I hope they will work fine in the future, bought some S3+'s today, can't wait for them to arrive (:
