Yawn. Miners this efficient were available over 8 months ago.
I don't understand why Bitmain would waste time and money updating the S4. What a waste.
Exactly. Why . Why. Why! Because their new stuff won't be available till mid/end summer. Bitmain milk it for all you can. The specs just aren't there. Should have been sold has kit. Notice I didn't say uprade kit.
Once again we don't need more miners or even better miners. We need higher btc prices.
That one is far beyond OUR control.
yeah btc price is not easy and as for what to buy 1071 for this new gear vs 1118 for 3 s-5's
you get 2600gh for the s4+ and a free psu giving about 1500 watts
you get 3450gh for the s5 and you need about 2000 watts worth of psu you supply.
prices are close if you do not own a psu. the s4+ could be better for you.
Good point... I forgot to take into account the external PSU costs with the S5. That does slightly even out cost comparison.
