DO NOT BUY THESE ASICS!!! I keep telling you people!

Right now, at 13.4 billion difficulty, a 500 Ghash miner will get you 0.01868 BTC per day! That's it!

And when the difficulty adjusts to 17.1 BILLION in 3 days, it will make 0.01471 BTC per day!

As of now it'll be 16.6 in 2.5 days.

We don't even know the price of the S3 yet. Bitmain was able to sell the S2 for around $250 shipped and still make a profit, and I would expect that their cost to product the S3 would be similar to what it cost them to produce the S1.

I'm sure Bitmain could get very aggressive with pricing if they wanted to, although the first batch will probably be overpriced. People tend to overpay for shiny new hardware.

Also, as we saw with the S2, it's also more of a gamble to buy the first batch of anything. It may take Bitmain a batch or two before they get all the kinks worked out.

S2 shipped for $250 WHERE? If so Ill take 2 right now.

Any PSU experts looking here?
Id like to take that DELL PSU setup and run some of these possibly.

It only has one PCIE plug though and one more unknown plug that breaks out to SATA power.

Can you get adapters to go from the 24pin, I THINK, to fan out to multiple PCIE plugs?

Thanks

He meant S1... clearly.
