How much are the S5 hashing boards and how do you go about ordering?
You could ask Bitmain about boards,and we think it is cheaper that you assemble a water-cooled S5 rather than air-cooled S5.

back in the thread it said you need 6 fans instead of 3 with the small radiator You need two of the radiator kits, or one of the large kit. But, the case doesn't seem to list the needed extra length cables yet. That's right, the kit will need 3 extra fans per radiator. Also, there was mention about screws and springs also. I wonder if you buy the boards, maybe the cables, screws and springs are included from Bitmaiin? Exactly,all you mentioned need you purchase from Bitmain,and we will also provide some other type screws for modify requirement.

I costed shipping for two units without rads, and it came out to $437US with paypal. No bitcoin? wayyy to expensive.
Shipping cost is unavoidable,and value of bitcoin is changing all the time,sorry about that.

Screws arrived,purchase could be accepted http://shop.syscooling.com/goods.php?id=51Remember,when you purchase hash board from Bitmain,you also need buy 2 controllers,screws,springs,cables(8cm*2,16cm*6).If you want or need to extend cables yourself,please tell us anyway,we could provide you cables and heat shrink tubing that you need for welding. Our modified kit includes:case,4 waterblocks,2 fans,2 fan covers,screws,heat conducting paste,2 distributors,cables and heat shrink tubing(if needed).

Oops, forgot it only comes with a front fan, was mixing it up with the S3 in front of me. So, will the water blocks fit with the screws that hold them in place on the S5?
Air-cooled S5 doesn't have screw holes to hold waterblocks. You can take bottom of S3 and drill into 8 extra holes. Bottom is not necessary for working the S3 Also, you have to drill 4 more holes

So I am confused. Is Bitmain on board with this or do we have to lobby them to sell us what we need?

Good question, guess when we see on their site that you can order the boards by themselves with the accessories, we'll know for sure.

As Dogie said,it is unofficial on Bitmain now,but we could provide water-cooled S5 sale,price is $18 more expensive than official price of air-cooled S5.In addition,because we purchase boards from Bitmain,amounts couldn't be too small,if you want to purchase water-cooled S5,amouts of each order is 3 at least.You could send email to watercooling@ysun.net for purchasing,and preparing time of arranging shipment is about 1 week.

But to fill out the case you show in the OP you would need the equivelent of 4x S5's correct?

I don't get it. What if someone orders 5 then? You'll get 2 partially filled cases? One with 2 and one with 3 S5's in it? Or one filled with 4 and then one mostly empty with just 1 S5 in it?

As you can see,1 water-cooled S5 have 4 waterblocks,so it is equivalent to 4 air-cooled S5's.

Ok,I don't introduce it clearly,forgive me .I said 3 S5,it is water-cooled S5,equivalent to 12 air-cooled S5.The price is $1307 each water-cooled S5.I know that is unconvenient,I will post a group-buying thread to count how many people want to purchase.If required amounts of water-cooled S5 is more than 50,the price might be a little lower.

Air-cooled S5 doesn't have screw holes to hold waterblocks. You can take bottom of S3 and drill into 8 extra holes. Bottom is not necessary for working the S3 Also, you have to drill 4 more holes Thanks for posting this, it answers what I had in mind and want to do. Tupsu, you stated that water blocks need to be attached to the bottom plate that you drilled 4 holes in, but is this really necessary? Isn't the 4 screws on the front frame (behind where the fan is attached) enough to support it? The back would be supported by the tube connecting the two water blocks together.

I have built water blocks in C1 housing . There are four mounting holes on the bottom for water blocks and four mounting holes in front and rear. Screws are very short, so I used all the screw holes. Because Syscooling has not yet been posted my S5 Modified Kit , I made today another C1 double housing for my ordered 3 x S5. S3 housing construction with 2 water blocks is one possibility, but I prefer the C1 case and even better S5 Modified Kit from Syscooling.
