I was able to fix the S7 that had burned up power connections...
So +5ths to the chain...
Its totally gong to be the straw that breaks the block... i can feel it.
Did you just desolder the old pcie connectors and put new on?
Yes, after suggestion from someone here...
Working great !
I had used a crappy power supply on my first ever S7, and paid for it... melted the cable sheathing and made a mess of the power connectors. Only antminer power supplies from now on...

are the hash boards working? you can replace the power pins and plastic connector. Takes a bit of work, but can be done. There was a video on youtube that showed how to do it for an S9.
I found it, its in russian though... Pictures are worth more than words anyways
Now i'm having a hell of a time finding that 90 degree GPU power connector... Only can find one place out of the USA... looking for a more local seller.
As twitchy as antminers are about moisture I think water cooling or putting them anywhere near floor level is probably a bad thing. Now copper plates and copper heat tubes going to a tank for a hashfull hot water heater might do the trick. The problem is copper is fairy expensive now a days.
I am trying.. got up to about 70TH/s just yesterday.
DID YOU KNOW - That 4 S9 antminers heat up a 25x25 foot garage from 5 deg to 21 in about 6 hours? I have 4 in there, and one in my house. I think i will move a couple more in the house. I should note that it was -25 deg C outside as well. Still devising a plan to deal with the heat from them in the summer!
At the time of writing this, there is 99 hours on the wall - since the last block.
99 hours on the wall, add one more.... 100 hours onthe wall.....
My 2x S9 and my one ol' S7 are heating my entire basement (finished) and certainly helping with the rest of the house, as even the floor is warm to bare feet. Its definitely a bonus here in New England right now ! It's got to be 5 degrees outside...

Many of us buy only from the mfrs direct, or from endorsed, official distributors
Would BITMAIN pre-sell one version and then ship a different one? This is what Eastshore is claiming why they have the different version to ship in the first place.
