Coinwarz bro..

But anyone can do the math for themselves. It's fun when you start factoring in PSU efficiency, line resistance, cooling, controllers... "Hmmm.. Do you think this 16 gauge wire will melt?"..

Fun times. Some days I wish I was in an actual gold mine rather than worrying about burning my house down.

right now my two are literally mining in a bank under lock and key on a metal plate.  

my friends office is on the second floor of a local bank. I put them in one corner of his Air conditioned  office   on a piece of sheet metal.

I placed an all metal table over the top of them.

The next order will be a problem of where to mine them.  I do have an idea I will do a thread on it .

It was on by default on the S1. You can turn it on if you want. It will give you a more optimal balance between the servers but it will divide work.

Where is this setting? I want to make sure my S1s and S2s have it turned off

Same, same.  I am kind of hoping that most recent customs thing is actually not in China though.  There was an export scan in Shenzhen last night, and after that I had a new delivery estimate for the 23rd.  But now I also no-longer have a delivery estimate and the last update is "The package is awaiting clearing agency review. Your package was released by the clearing agency."  So hopefully it is at least out of China.

I cant understand why people are purchasing s3's, the return at the current difficulty is 8usd aday, about 50 week and you spend 468.5 usd??

How are you going to make your money back, not forgetting running costs...

I have two S3's, received last Friday. One of them hashes at 440GHs at stock speed (218.5), so I'm fine with it; however, the other hashes at 400 GHs at stock. I've been trying different things like putting it on a different psu's like ATX, Dell/HP server, but nothing helped. I'm taking notes on different clock speeds on this one:

Frequency     GHS(avg)      Temps       HW            Watt (Kill-A-Watt)     ASIC Status
----------     ----------     -------     --------     ------------------     ----------------------
250              487.26          41, 41        2             428                         Chain#2, 1 "x" on the far right
237.5           423.55          39, 37       38             367                         All OK
225              422.69          39,36         7             364                         Chain#2, 1 "x" at 2nd position & 1 "-" at 8th position from left
218.75          403.58          40, 38        0             355                         All Ok

After editing the asic-freq file, a reboot command was issued. All readings were take at 30 minute mark. PSU is a Dell Server Power Supply 750W. All 4 PCI-E cables are plugged in, even at stock frequency.

Yes, it took me over 2 hours to finish writing this post.  

I'm setting the frequency at 250, seems to be the sweet spot for this S3.

At what frequency would you run this at? Why?

If it works so well at 250, why the heck not? I would. Sometimes rebooting a miner from the webgui (NOT by powering it off, then ON) helps with "x".
I wasn't that systematic as most of my machines are best at stock freq and the one that could be overclocked is starting to produce 0.6%HW error on 237.5 and I dare not to OC it to 250mhz.
