@ Bitmain:

With the broken promises of updated firmware for S2 users & all the problems with the S4, PSU, firmware, etc, etc - I would like to see some proof that these will actually work as advertised before deciding to buy some or not.

1) Can you post a screen of one actually mining showing hash/error rate?

2) Will these work with all pools, including p2pool, or just a select few as with the S4?

3) Has the firmware been thoroughly tested this time?

4) What version of cgminer is bundled with it?

Thanks.

The question you want to ask is whether its the same controller as the S3, or the kind in the S4. I would imagine it uses the S3 controller, in which case it would act just like an S3 but show twice as many chips/hashes

Thanks, but I don't want to buy something based on what a member "imagines" the answers are, it's a lot of money, so I'd like to know the facts about what I'm paying for. It seems strange that Bitmain don't just answer the questions being asked - it would surely help members decide weather to buy them or not.
