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

[vortexz]

to how much can the S5 be OCd ?
I tought they first said it can't be OCd at all ?

Each ones different I am sure but have had both mine up to freq 400 but once I go above that they seem to not do as good but they seem to do the best at just under 400 freq. the screen shot I posted in the above post shows one running at 375 as I turned it down some to lower the watts its drawing due to running 2 S5's and 1 S3 on two 1000W PSU's

Anyone overclock on a CX750(not m)?

So.. I've tried to search this, but I haven't seen anything on it.

I have a new S5.  It seems to run fine.

Every once in awhile, though, maybe every day or two, I will see that it is running at half efficiency.. in the 500-600 GH/s rate.

I go into to miner configuration and hit save and apply without changing the settings.. and it goes back to 1150-1200 GH/s.

Sometimes it stays for a day or so.. sometimes it stays for an hour.

Is this a faulty power supply or a firmware glitch..?

Anyone else seeing this happen?

Looks cool.  I'm running all macs, however.   I don't suppose there's a mac or browser plug in version?

I've never had this problem with my s1's.   Is it a CGminer issue?   Hardware issue that would require the frequent reboots?

Past 8 days I have been hashing with my two S5 systems.
They would almost daily, at stock settings, would fail to around 600GH per system.
Temperature is 38c on the readings, 350 frequency, 850 watt Gold EVGA power supply with 4 unique rails.
At first I thought it was the firmware that needed to be updated, but after updating the firmware yesterday it seems to at least increase the chance, as now one is entirely offline and the other is hashing at 600GH.
Multiple power cycles and one of them isn't staying online for more than 1 or 2 hours, though both were hashing at 1160GH for a couple hours after a reboot. 
I never recorded temperatures above 40C (It's very cold here in a large unheated building).

What should I do?  Do they need to be RMA'ed? Are others having this issue?  Is there a script I can run that will auto restart or power cycle them when hash rate is this low or not responding at all?
I'm ready to buy 10-20 S5's instead of a Farm of SP20, but so far the S5 is not reliable enough for a personal farm, even with just 2 compared to my SP20 farm.
Let me know what to do.

I'm seeing the same thing on my 1 S5.  Frustrating.  Sometimes a save and apply click in the configuration page works for a full day or two.  Sometimes only a half hour.

Hoping there's a firmware fix coming to fix this.

In the mean time is there any provision for a periodic reboot built in?

Yes, its a known issue and will get fixed soon^TM. Current solutions are timers on the PSU to hard reboot [harsh], or software monitor's like M's to issue soft reboots on hashrate drop. Soft reboots won't always fix it depending on which exact issue you get though.

Its not guaranteed but there may be a small amount of headroom. You won't get the headroom like on previous generations as there is no voltage control.

If your unit is overclockable, a CX750 will do it fine.

Got my batch 4 miner yesterday and am surprised at the 0 H/W ?

Looks like an error, my unit with a week uptime also has 0. I'll report it now.

Edit: actually I'll get back to you.

mine has insanely low error rates at 362.5MHz. something like 0.0088% if the webUI is true

One of my units has been running three days now @ 375MHz with 0% errors ! Temperature seems to be key to that. Board temps are solidly below 60C, near ~56C.

EDIT: Full disclosure: Modded units with extra pull fan added, but honestly question whether or not it's making any performance difference at all as the stock fans push an amazing volume of air. Room ambient temp is ~25C.

I think DiffS isn't used, and instead there is a HW row below the pools showing hardware errors.

What is the average shipping/delivery time for these units?

Shipping from stock apparently. Ordered a few over the weekend, arriving today to the US (Fedex).

Yea, you should know Dogie or think you know lol. This guy gets free miners and gets paid by BITMAIN TO SPAM BS all day long!!!

Then when you ask him a REAL Technical easy question He Reply's with a nasty response when you pm him because he don't know!!!

Duh Dogie.

There I did not PM it this time.

[jelin1984]

s5 is the best miner

[dog1965]

s5 is the best miner

Agreed now For an S6 which should be a upgrade kit for S5 with two more hashing boards.

?? I've answered 7 of your PMs in full (each with multiple questions), apart from the very last question of the last message because I don't know the answer.

You may open a scam accusation or meta thread if you really think me answering your questions so atrocious. If you have a question to post about the S5 you're more than free to do so here as this is the S5 thread.  Keep it on topic and civil please.
