Now that these new batches are shipping, finally consider getting one of these.

If I sacrifice speed and downclock what is the hottest ambient temp you can run an S9? My garage has a couple S7s  @ 550mhz that stay about 60C with 100F outside temp.  Summer is about over so I don't expect to have to fight temps much longer.

Gotta love Bitmain being in full control over new gear (NOT!).  I called it, they will drop prices like a rock as they get more units built and screw early investors.  

I logged into my bitmain account for the first time in forever and made the mistake of seeing my old orders:  Batch 2/4 S7s for 5.8BTC & 4.4BTC respectively.  Hah!  

The S9 is only 2.5BTC now but if I wait a couple months it makes me think 1.5BTC is plausible!
