Re: ANTMINER S3 Discussion and Support Thread.

Ok who is pre ordering the S3+'s today? Besides me.

I'm in for 2. I'm betting Bitmain surprises with early shipping.

Just got two, smell great, beautiful items, but I cant get them to work. I suspect a config issue, but usually its 5mins. Oh well my faith remains in this Company, though I still love the S2 most.

And this is how you convert an old bathroom into a 2.6 Th/s antminer S3 farm.

https://eesx0q.bn1.livefilestore.com/y2m8cId5TQ9xfY-agtYrGO-LA23xL36vET3oUeb2T0Go9S9iDsYscHNmthd_MYl4Q6id9gCFoV6sCWRbgdFGWl4yZaVWrF0UOo551Jz_V0Mc82rh852b_5TL-eU9fqQDQcP/ToiletMiner%20-%20Small.jpg?psid=1

All six miners and Corsair 750W PSUs exhaust out the back window. Fresh air is drawn through a cracked window on the opposite side of the bathroom. Each miner is stable at 218.75 stock frequency and averages 440 Gh/s per miner. 39C-40C average temps on each. I opted for one PSU per miner as I may decide to OC and got a good deal on them.

May never ROI at my electricity rates but I'm more of a hobbyist anyway...and this was a fun project.

YOU NEED 6 MORE.. NICE JOB

Thanks! I broke down and ordered twelve more of the S3+ models that went on sale as part of Batch 8. Suffice it to say they won't fit into this bathroom though...I'll be putting them into a custom built room in a property I own that I previously used to host twelve of the S1s. That should give me at least 8 Th/s by the end of September.
