Righto, thanks. I doubt anyone goes out of their way to trust my opinions, but I really like Bitmain gear (for disclosure, I own about 15 undervolted S1, run an S2 Kit and an S3) and I can't recommend the S5 until I trust a few things have been taken care of. It'd be really nice to have gotten ahold of one of those evaluation units, but then a thousand other people could say the same thing.
the big fear is will behave like Asic Miner"s tube or prisma. I owned both of them and both had current/heat runaway problems. very hard to keep stable. Once I get the test module I can A) undervolt it with 1 psu. B) over volt it with another psu. C) volt it perfectly with a high quality psu. D) sent 11 volts to one board and 13 volts to the other board. using 2 different psu's E)Set a low freq F) set a high freq G) add the higher quality silverstone fan for cooling The s-1 and s-3's I have had were all good or very good. 1 dead ethernet and all else good out of 30-35 units. I have read problems on the s-2 the s-4 the c-1 but I never had one of them to testI own quite a bit of Bitmain gear, and I can say with confidence they will not make gear as bad as Asic Miner makes..

The only issue I've ever had with the S2 was when I accidentally tore up one of the fans at the tail-end of a 16-hour shift getting stuff ready so I could leave for a week over Thanksgiving. I didn't have time to fix it and it shut off for overheating on the one end. Once I put a fresh fan in it, it lit right back up. The thing's been running spot-on with almost zero crash/downtime since... July? Might have been June I fetched it.
I have no complaints about the Tube, as far as hardware reliability (though of the 30-odd in my care for hosting, I started with 5 DOA boards and two of them did smoke VRM controllers, which was an easy fix) - the crap about them is the BE controllers. Of course the 11 Prismas in my care for hosting also haven't had any hardware problems yet, but that may be a statistical aberration? The Prismas sucked balls on BE controllers, but for the most part behave on USB adapters.
In any case, philipma, I look forward to reading your test results. I also look forward to the engineers getting back with some answers. I'm apparently a businessman these days, but I'm actually an engineer and one conversation with good numbers means a lot more than any amount of hard-sell.

Against my better judgement, I pulled the trigger on two B1 S5's and have received shipping confirmation.
Here's genuinely hoping this launch is smoother than the S3 launch.
Cheers, Bitmain.

I used beer as my excuse last S3 purchase. Haven't consumed enough to cloud my judgment enough to get back into mining. LOL. Good luck with yours, Xian. I hope they work out well.

Please keep in mind people, this is Bitmain's product discussion thread. While excessive harassing of members isn't acceptable under any circumstance, it is especially not acceptable in someone else's thread. I'm sure Dogie doesn't mind talking to reasonable people about whatever issues people are having with him, but please do not do it here. Don't clutter the thread making information harder to access for those that want it.
SaltySpitoon, Firstly, thank you for your input. However, if I am to be accused of something I have not done on a Bitmain thread, by someone who is paid by Bitmain - I believe I am, at the very least, entitled to an apology. Is that so unreasonable? I think not. I'm sure that you have read the circumstances of my request in this thread - if it were to happen to yourself, would you not want an apology? As genuine & appreciated as BitmainWarranty's & Yoshi's apology was, it's not the same, and until dogie realises the errors of his ways, the situation will continue & indeed probably get worse - weather it is with me or any of the other forum members he's seen fit to abuse or insult on Bitmain threads. It has gone too far already - & needs to be nipped at the bud. Sorry, but my request still stands. Exactly! When the defenders of the dastardly run their mouths, they are indeed condoning his abhorrent behaviour. Notice how they are happy to change & avoid the subject when its proven beyond a doubt that he/they are in the wrong. Shilling at its finest - and lamest.

I did order one S5 from batch 2 to try and will be interested in your testing. I also would like to know what PSU you use to undervolt the miner.

Once I get the test module I can A) undervolt it with 1 psu. B) over volt it with another psu. C) volt it perfectly with a high quality psu. D) sent 11 volts to one board and 13 volts to the other board. using 2 different psu's E)Set a low freq F) set a high freq G) add the higher quality silverstone fan for cooling The s-1 and s-3's I have had were all good or very good. 1 dead ethernet and all else good out of 30-35 units. I have read problems on the s-2 the s-4 the c-1 but I never had one of them to testThank you Sidehack and Philipma1957 as I respect both of your opinions. I did order one S5 from batch 2 to try and will be interested in your testing. I also would like to know what PSU you use to undervolt the miner. +1 These psu's are not for pc's but if I drop volts to 10 and wire correctly they may allow for underclock. the s-5 would be a true beast if it takes 10 volts drops to 900gh, but the watts drop to 400. thus making it a .44 watt per gh miner that is truly quiet. I think sidehack could tell you if a hp2000 watt server psu can adjust lower in volts http://www.ebay.com/itm/MFJ-4245MV-45-Amp-Switching-Power-Supply-w-3-Yr-RW-Antennastore-Warranty-/151492006605?pt=US_Radio_Comm_Device_Power_Supplies&hash=item2345a092cdhere is another psu with volt adjustment wrong > http://www.meanwell.com/search/SD-1000/SD-1000-spec.pdf <wrong 11 to 15 volts and if set at 11 would sag to 10.0-10.5 on the load of the s-5 this one should work > http://www.ebay.com/itm/Professional-Mean-Well-SE-600-12-PSU-AC-DC-Switching-Power-supply-12V-50A-600W-/151411792018?pt=US_Radio_Comm_Device_Power_Supplies&hash=item2340d89892http://www.meanwell.com/search/SE-600/SE-600-spec.pdf specs say 10 to 13.5 volts if you set to 10 it will sag to 9 and change

Note that the meanwell one is DC-DC which I don't think you want.

Just over a year ago, Bitmain released its ground-breaking Antminer S1 to the market. Miners no longer had to sacrifice space, noise levels and hashing power in order to mine. The S1 became the staple of the home miner, before being upgraded to the Antminer S3 7 months later.
Today, Bitmain is proud to announce its 3rd generation chip in conjunction with its 9th product: the Antminer S5. It is 450 USD 418 USD per unit (excluding shipping) and will ship starting on December 27th.
Coupons for S4's can they be converted to S5's? Sorry if this was asked and answered already.
