Pictures of your mining rigs!

[IITravel01]

In case anyone wants to see how tight a fit two S3's in the smaller Corsair Carbide Air 240 case.

Love the flat black look of the case.

can i ask ... what model of the FAN 120mm you replace the stock fan of ant-miner??

how about the noise and the temp performance ?

The fans are all 140mm, in front are:  http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00B1WQ4VA/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o01_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 with these http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00HRJ550W/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
In rear I have these (these fans will probably move the most air of any fans that will fit the S3):  http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00A460TK6/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

These are quiet at idle, but I haven't mined with them yet, waiting for a D-Link 5 port switch to arrive tomorrow before I get started.

I also have a set of these in the front ready for install on the 2nd pair of S3+ when batch 10 is released (these spin faster than the others so they aren't as silent, blue blades with white LEDs):  http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0078IWS6Q/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
And these in the rear (same as other set):  http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00A460TK6/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Here's another option if you're looking to shorten the S3 for a tighter fit enclosure (these seem to spin faster than the Prolimatech fans):  http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00G8GUE74/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o06_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

These are all 140mm fans with the screw holes at the 120mm fan locations.  If you want quiet, Deep Cool makes fans that should fit that are very silent also.

This is the picture of my miner which is hidden after the drawer set under my desk in office.
That is 160Gh per board, and no electricity expenses and internet expenses...

a man either brave? or looking for a reason to get a new job.....

well played well played

in my humble opinion you should just take a miner and put it inside one of those desktop air filter units

something like this

http://www.amazon.com/Holmes-HEPA-Desktop-Purifier-HAP242-UC/dp/B0000DK35B/ref=lp_3737421_1_1?s=home-garden&ie=UTF8&qid=1411462582&sr=1-1

loud as hell maybe...heck you prob could even leave the filter in....gut another vent in back etc

(now I prob did just get someone fired in the future)

also someone back in 2013 found a way to put a BFL 5 gh jally (he did get one ...or the first and prob roi'd on it) found room in his office DESKTOP CASE
had pics etc....don't have the link

heh

I have five BFL 5Gh also. But they are retired, 'cause I can't stand the noise from those little black boxes. So I made my boards with bitfury. I populated 60 bitfury per board, and that was powered by 12V. And more, I chose a old-fashion CPU heatsink with quite fan on that. such that, no more noise are there...
The goal of my desgin was to have them under my desk in office, and have them to increase my salary...

They will decrease your salary if you get fired.

Heres my mess since May:

72pcs @ 28Mhs @ 590W

Nice rig!
No even to much power drain, 590 Watt ain`t bad @ all 

[lin0sspice]

To give credit where credit is due, BFL did it first 

Baloney. :-)

And in the interests of posting pictures, here's 300gh in my solar shed.



A close up of the equipment



Yes, the water cooled jallies are holding up fine. And finally, a wide angle shot of the sheds. Good solar porn here.

How much was setup for that solar ?

And how many watts total ?

[IITravel01]

I'm interested in a solar setup also, what's needed for say 2 AntMiner S3+'s (let's say 850watts)?

He'll never divulge info on his solar setup cept the panels & that info was vague,I've tried PM's,posts,nothing but a few tidbits

BTW,I forgot how frugal those little miners were

I run 4 S3s on a solar setup.
For a properly working system you need an MPPT charge controller.
A good one will cost around $200.
Then need solar panels of total 1500W for you to run 2 S3. That will cost another $1000 (Not DIY).
DIY Panels are cheap, but I will not recommend it for professional installations like for mining.
Now Solar Cable, Fuses, MCBs and other Misc. electrical components costs around $200.
Mounting stands for solar panels: $200
Total it will become $2000+ if you are doing it yourself.
Else if you are handing over the solar project to an agency/company it will cost above $5000.

Do your ROI now. Solar setup is expensive.

if am not mistaken I can recall he wrote at some time the his shed was wiped out from bad weather and most miners had water in them so he has lost much of them due to mulfunctions...

Thanks, $2k is in the possibility realm.

Do you have your list off components and where to buy them >>
Thank.

[hurricandave]

It would probably be cheaper and easier to just get a natural gas generator.

For a solar setup the below components are required.
Also see this post https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=655325.msg8995013#msg8995013

Solar Panels
Charge Controller(s) (MPPT Prefered)
Inverters (AC-AC or AC-DC-AC)
Battery Bank (and their maintenance equipments)
Solar Cables (Costly)
Fuses/MCB/ELCBs and other electrical components

You can get these from directly from manufacturer or dealer or ebay.
Better source directly from manufacturer is possible.

Yes will be a very expensive setup which will not ROI if depends 24/7.
A Solar + Grid Setup installed as DIY may break even in 2 to 3 years.
But again at this mining environment its even not possible to ROI the miner without calculating electricity.

Well I got rid of all my Other Miners except 8 x ASiCMiner / Bitfountain Block Erupter 336 MH/s (SHA256d).

What I had previously was

1 x Innosilicon A2 Terminator 88-95 MH/s (SCRYPT)

3 x Gridseed G Blade 5.2 - 5.9 MH/s (SCRYPT) (15.6 - 17.7 MH/s Total)

6 x GAWMiners Fury(s) 1.3 MH/s (SCRYPT) (7.8 MH/s Total)

7 x Zeusminer Blizzard 1.3 MH/s (SCRYPT) (9.1 MH/s Total)

Grand Total: 129.6 MH/s (SCRYPT)

and

1 x Bitmain Tech Antminer S1 180 GH/s (SHA256d)

1 x Avalon Mini 60 GH/s (SHA256d)

18 x Bitmain Tech Antminer U2 2 GH/s (SHA256d) (36 GH/s Total)

33 x Bitmain Tech Antminer U1 1.6 GH/s (SHA256d) (52.8 GH/s Total)

Grand Total: 328.8 GH/s (SHA256d)

But now I am just humbly Hobby Mining with these 8 x ASiCMiNER / Bitfountain Block Erupter USB 336 MH/s (SHA256d)

Installed the pair of AntMiner S3+s in a case at my office today.  Oddly, when I built it at home and turned it on, the power supply showed it was running idle at 78-79watts (network switch not connected), but at the office here after I powered it in (with network switch connected) is showing about 725watts which I thought it wouldn't do until I set it to mine.  Anyway, I hoped it wouldn't blow any fuses having a couple computers, printer, etc. plugged into the same socket and luckily it didn't.  So all is good so far.  Power supply shows it's running at 91% efficiency and in case temp is at 103F.

Now being a newbie, I've got to set up the rest.  Downloaded CGMiner 4.6.1 so tomorrow I'll start setting up the rest, but being absolutely new I hope it doesn't take long to get it up and running.

Oh nice, now where is your office? maybe i can help you to expand a little more

[IITravel01]

My business partner and I's company is near LAX.  Looking to buy another 2 or 3 AntMiner S3+s as soon as BitMain makes them available again.  Already have another case set to go as seen in my earlier pics, will go right next to this one pictured in the open space on the right.

Which company, i'm near you guys. I'm experienced in mining and can provide mining gears with ease.

[IITravel01]

Where are you located? I don't really need any hardware, I'm pretty efficient at building computers as I've been doing it since the early 90's with my first 386.  What else do you offer and what's your company name?
