Just bought a few S3 antminers that will arrive in 2 days and have a couple questions. I see in the OP it says they "support p2pool. Static difficulty configuration recommended." Do you guys have good results with p2pool? How good is your hashrate and DOA rate? Do you guys get better hashrate on a pool such as eligius or btcguild, or do the antminers work great on p2pool? One last question, where can I view/download the latest firmware for them?

There have been very few complaints about mining issues with p2pool, that alone should be a good indication. As you should know by now, hashrate comparisons will vary with dependency on your network connection and its pathway to which ever pool server you choose and will be somewhat different for everyone. Firmware is posted at Bitmain's website under the support tab, select the menu for the device you have, until Kano or some one else comes up with an alternative which is usually found on github.

I would still use Nicehash as a primary for the premium they are paying atm. p2p will pay you what the calcs say you should get. no more. Nicehash can pay you %20 more which it is atm. It serves me no benefit to evne post that here because if all of you start to hash there the orders go through quicker and less for me. Worst case set nicehash as your first with a BTC payout limit and it will only give you premium work loads for much better btc. this is a no brainer. pick your favorite pool after that for pool 2 and 3 Fahlcor Just stop advertising your pool. Your entire history is filled with you finding excuses to mention its name.

I'm happy to share the info with my fellow miners. Not sure if you noticed but I didn't even post a refer code or anything. Just an honest tip to help out my fellow S3 miners. I thought the title was discussion forum and support. I'm not associated with any pool. Sorry to those I have offended. You're welcome to those I have helped. I won't post about it any more. Good Day. Fahlcor you can post a good pool here. do not let angry people scare you off. many of us pool hop so a pool to try is fine. Please pm me about this pool I put 4 s-3's on it and I am a bit confused about the settings. never mind i will pm you

If I was you I would set Nicehash as the first pool... ... Otherwise use bitminter or other as solid standby.
My unobtrusive recommendation is to read this post. Briefly - an appropriate pool should be determined anew in every particular case, because an error rate (rejected+stale) can nullify benefits of each pool's reward system due to lower total hashrate of your miner(s) at that pool... Seems that bitcoin mining is not a place for lazy noobs... I mean it usually doesn't work well if someone try to "plug-and-play". Those who decided to be a miner should use their heads constantly. Think, analyze, compare, choose the best (pool, equipment etc.). No offense, guys! ![Roll Eyes](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/rolleyes.gif) where can I view/download the latest firmware for them?
Definetely the best place is Bitmain's site, take a look at Support section.

Good Day. Fahlcor I was actually thinking about this and anyone who has a hate for Nicehash needs to understand that they are not a pool. They are a paid service that has to be pointed at a pool. So this is not posting a pool. Just simply being PAID outright for your hash power. Whatever you hash using their service goes to the buyer who could be using ANY pool they wish. Thanks Fahlcor

I get so tired of having to wade through reams of cr*p spam posts in order to find the smallest piece of information about a manufacturers product on their own thread - it's so f*cking irritating!
@ fahlcor: Take note of what people are telling you, obey the forum rules, especially when they are put right in front of your face. This is the Bitmain thread.

Mine shipped early Monday CST and I cleared them through DHL in person at YWG on Thursday lunch the same week. The cost of shipping stuff express i'm sure is half the cost. Fahlcor
