Re: ANN: BITMAIN has Tested Its 28nm Bitcoin Mining Chip BM1382

Are there any photos or layouts of the upgrade kits for the S1/S2, is it true the S2 could be upgraded to do 2Th/s?

That's the theory right now, but nothing has been released, AFAIK, other than the drawing in the OP.

I don't think S2 upgrades are that high on their priority list tbh, will be a month or two before they bother offering upgrades for them, simply doesn't make sense to upgrade the S2s yet.

S2 will be profitable to mine in the next two months, and it will be perfect time to upgrade then.

I have to disagree. I have several, and with the difficulty climbing this fast you would be shocked to see how slow they bring in reward .. I'm telling you all right now The 500 GH's system was the wrong move for Bitmain to be focused on .. Whoever made that move should be let go ..

Perhaps the hash power is less than optimal but I am totally happy with the S1 form factor in the S3. Even better now with 2 low noise fans.
