Hi,
I recently bought two CX750 PSUs.. I will be overclocking both of my Antminer S3s with them (if they're overclockable).
I'm going to buy these Antennas: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00DP64JRG/ref=ox_sc_act_title_1?ie=UTF8&psc=1&smid=A2QRL5FSRPK4LM
And hopefully that will work.

I'm wondering if there is ANYTHING at all I should order on amazon for my setup?
I will only have one chance to order and pick everything up since I'm from out of the country.

Thanks!

Dont quote me on it, as I only own an S1, but the S3 doesnt have WiFi? Only Ethernet.

Also the powersupplies should be fine.

If my advice has helped you out, feel free to throw some Satoshi's my way!

Well I guess the ethernet adaptor has a little slot for wifi on the board.

Ok just looked up some internal shots, yeah I see the WiFi card on there same as the S1, so I guess those will work fine! Have heard some people say that WiFi isnt good to use for mining at high hashrates, but I fail to see the logic in it. Works just fine on my S1 without any slowdown.

If my advice has helped you out, feel free to throw some Satoshi's my way!

Is anyone really earning Bitcoin? How successful are you guys with these ant miners S3s? Are you getting $200 per mouth like the mining calculator states. I would like to invest in a ant miner S3. Do you guy recommend it? Any advice?

Right now the S3 is a very good deal considering it's price/performance and performance/power ratio. If you want to get into the mining game, the S3 is probably the best choice. Right now you'd probably earn a nice amount of BTC before your miner becomes obsolete, but your mileage may very.
