I ordered an L3+ have been using it for a month. The difficulty is going up like crazy. By the time September batch starts shipping the machines wont be generating much. Besides that I have noticed this with Bitmain products for years now. And FYI Batch 1 of this miner was sold out in minutes. Another batch will be coming up soon. It says that one machine makes over $200 per day but by the time we get it it would make less than half of that.
Have you been noticing significant decrease in output from your L3+ over the month? Quite curious if that's what will happen to D3.
A rise in difficulty means that more miners have come online, adding to the total hashing power on the blockchain. This means that your payout will be less because you are competing with other miners. Yes, the same thing will happen to the D3. At what rate will this happen to DASH vs Litecoin? That depends on a lot of things of which are out of your control.
Hi unfortunately my psu supplier couldn't delivery. I've noticed on the bitmain site they have the apw3++ and says shipped in august.. I'm trying to select it but it's not adding to cart :s .. will they only be available to order after august or some bs!?!
And has anyone purchase these generic bitmain brands on Alibaba by any chance? .. I'm actually desperate ATM Sad

Any help would be appreciated guys.

Why not pickup some HP server power supplies with breakout boards and PCIE cables like this?
http://www.parallelminer.com/product/110v120v-80-platinum-power-supply-for-s9-antminer/ Should be loads faster, shipping wise, than alibaba or bitmain and works great.
I would recommend getting something 1500 watts or greater since the D3 supposedly uses
1200 watts at the wall on a 93% PSU.

I'm more interested in ATX psu but all the EVGA supernova G2, P2, T2 1600w are completely out of stock and it comes with a pricy tag but you do get 10 years warranty and the g2's are so silent... I've found someone on alibaba that has the apw3++ and claims they can deliver it this week so fingers crossed.
