ANTMINER S5: 1155GH(+OverClock Potential), In Stock $0.319/GH & 0.51W/GH

[soy]

There's more complaints about the stock S5 fan noise than the C1 fan noise.  Not the same fan?

Not the same fan. The S5 is the same as the S4's, the C1 is the same as the S3's.

Wonder if the S5 fans have the same bolt pattern as those on the C1.  Summer coming and better cooling might be good.

Do you mean 'square' spacing? If so yes, they're both industry standard '120mm' fans.

And now the question of the day: Who manufactures the S5 fan and what model?

And now the question of the day: Who manufactures the S5 fan and what model?

the most pertinent question is why it was sourced when delta 1212SHE is apparently fine (according to quite a few folks) at half the noise or less.
This made people who mine at home/apartment frantically search for an adequate fan.
OP suggested before that it was important to source the noisiest fan, but then recs Corsair fan at 65 CFM  , which is not adequate, unless you have <10C ambient.
Honestly, i think that it was one of those random corporate acts, and I can live with that. Nobody is perfect.

dogie we need more S5s or the mythical S6. Use your influence to tell them to giterdun!

Probably  JSL
JIANG SHAN LAI ELECTRONICS CO. LTD

[chiguireitor]

So, i'm a little late to this thread, but does anyone knows if/when bitmain will publish a non-shitty miner on their page? All i see is crap and i really want to keep expanding my mini-farm with quality miners...

JSL's are usually stickered so I think its someone else. On the spec sheet I saw there either wasn't a name or it was something I didn't recognise.

Don't make me have to go buy used lastgen hardware

No plans have been made either way yet, we'll just have to be patient.

OK but I am not patient. I am impulsive. Too expensive on eBay though and Spondoolies is sold out too. First one to the start line will win the race

[toptekk]

Found this on bitmain talk lets hope this why no sells yet , some one asked below .

Is there any new batch coming soon?

Yes of course, after they sell most of S5 to HashNest. If they open S5 for sale now, they will slow down HashNest significantly. So you can buy it on HashNest and help others to open sale of S5 sooner.

I can't see  how many are left to be sold , down for maintenance.

and this was said by  ting.shao Official

Hello there, just pay attention to our official website, currently we have sold out our antS5 miners. And you can choose to purchase antS5 hashes on hashnest.
Regards.  

was said on 3.2.2015

so we wait and see. I wonder what the S6 will do, i want one .


for those S1 and S3 nuts go to ebay some one has a lot of the s1 to s3 upgrade kits on sell for 89 $ . by a lot  i mean  10 or more, i have no idea were they came from, i have one coming tomorrow . so I'll see if it's the real thing . and they just popped up on ebay,

they went up to 95 $ Free shipping..

It's been done large scale. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=346134.0
And small scale.

bobsaq3 and sidehack are spot on at stock/factory clock rates.
We prefer to allow a little more head room for OC'ing the Prisma's and hence have migrated to one DPS-1600BB per Prisma.
OC'ing a Prisma only makes financial sense if the cost per Kwh is low ($0.08/KWh or less).

Then there are the heat dissipation issues that come with filling a room/Data Center with OC'ed Prisma's.
Pursuant to that we are prototyping Open Bath Immersion (OBI) cooling using the 3M Novec Engineered Fluids in custom built polycarbonate immersion tanks.
With the ultimate goal of immersing 32 OC'ed Prisma hash boards, controlled by an RPi w/wireless, in an OBI tank powered by 5 DPS-2000's.
Power consumption should be ~10Kw per tank and dissipate ~32K BTU continuously, enough to heat the average American sized home in a Minnesota winter AND GET PAID TO DO IT.
The residual/excess heat could be used to heat a garage, heat a driveway, heat sidewalks, melt snow off of the roof, heat a pool/hot tub/fish pond, etc. . . . . . .

Our Youtube channel (PlanetCrypto) has some videos of our initial testing.

A polycarbonate immersion tank with 2x Bitmain S3+ hash boards:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fStHV_Q-x7s

We no longer power the fan in the S3+ tank as it is not required for condensation.
The heat generated from the S3+ tank supplements the in-floor heat in our little DC.
We have laid PEX in the ground outside the DC as a place to dump excess heat in upcoming expanded systems.

When we get a 32 Prisma board system up and running we'll post some vid's on the channel.

I have wanted to do it myself and have come up with a few designs for tanks, but don't have the capital to get started. Good luck.

[netcoingeek]

Now that I have fan noise to a level acceptable to the family, the heat generated is raising the temp of my upstairs hallway 4 degrees. So I'm asking...

Where do you keep your miners and could one mo er set at 331mHz pump out enough heat to raise the temp of an open floor second story 4degrees?

I had another S5 loose a blade on Sunday (2nd one that has failed in the 30 days I've had them). I tried using a different power supply and also moving the cables to the other port on the controller but it's still going all xxx's. I'm not overclocking, just running stock settings. I emailed Bitmain support but only got one response asking what kind of power supply I was using. I responded back (EVGA 750G & Corsair HX850) but heard  nothing further from them. Bitmain, can you send me an RMA number and I'll ship this back to Colorado?

Not the most complete description but I take it there is an inflow and outflow pipe pair to the tank moving the Novec to an external radiator to exhaust heat and a second inflow and outflow pair to the condenser also to an external radiator?  Ah, found it.  One gallon offered for sale @ $379.95.

This is off topic but the Novec fluid doesn't get pumped anywhere. This video should explain it better. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a6ErbZtpL88

Back on topic. Bitmain, I'm ready to purchase more S5's. With the price of BTC creeping up I think it would be worthwhile.

Hi, we are in the same boat. 1 of my s5 blade dead in a month and promised to give shipping label to ship back. But its already 3 weeks since the promised and I never heard back from them again. I send couple email but no reply at all. BITMAIN if you read this please prosess our RMA. I Have been loyal customer since antminer S1.  Thank You

I had another one fail a few weeks ago and Bitmain Support was much more responsive then. I don't mind paying the shipping to Denver, just don't want to ship it back without an RMA number or confirmation that they will send me a replacement.

See, I don't understand that.  If it's an enclosed system and the Novec evaporates off the ASICs dropping their temperature, that energy is in the Novec gas.  If it condenses within the enclosed container as it must or it's lost, that energy must be released.  The energy wouldn't leave the enclosed container and its temperature would build.  He says he might heat a driveway.  So, is taking the heat out via whatever fluid is circulating within the condenser enough to remove all the heat?
