Is this machine still using that shitty controller with Mips 24Kc or what it's called that had 100% CPU load 24/7 when you mined? Like the S3 did.
S2 had a different controller, although the system load was high too, at least the web UI was a lot more responsive. Hopefully S4 will be based on that. Let's hope they do it properly and release driver source from the start, so we can use our own controller boards if we want to. |

They are probably integrating their services with hashnest better, or updating their website layout entirely. Also, I would not be surprised if the S4 was released at $1300+ USD to which I suggest no one buys.

Regardless, they can still leave the old site online while changes are made. |

Yeah, not going to be purchasing. 90+ days for ROI if you aren't paying for electricity. And this is given the difficulty doesn't jump (which won't happen). |

Sorry Bitmain, $1450 is too much. Maybe next time.

Hate to say this because I like Bitmain and dislike ASICMiner, but the Prisma is a much better deal unless the S4 is way more efficient.

Hahah. What a joke.
S3 miner was 0.58. 6 of those (2.8 Th/s) comes in at the same price for way more hashes. DO NOT BUY PEOPLE. Also, it will probably be filled with bugs like the S2 (loose blades, broken blades, etc)

In the past I used to only use them but now Bitmain is really failing. Just buying 4 of the S3s is over 1 BTC cheaper (and that is at the inflated S3 price). I guess they are charging 1 BTC for a PSU, this is really a fail. I am glad I have moved on to different manufactures...

We do not agree some business practice in the community, which is intended to distribute the risk and benefit asymmetrically. We are here to change it. No preorders have been accepted, and forever we will not accept pre-order before we feel logically 100% percent sure that we can deliver on time. There will be no unexpected waiting and failed/delayed taping-out or any other kind of delaying risks for our customers. The most risky phase of the AntMiner development has gone, but the first batch production and testing is still full of challenge. We will sell only in stock miners for the first Batch, expected within a week or two. No need to do complex ROI calculations. This S4@$1450  is just a huge no No Never buy miner. No way it will breakeven. Sorry, BitMainTech come down to the floor and see the reality and put a realistic price in BTC terms.  |
