 I have two Delta fans in a push pull configuration. SO MUCH QUIETER. Awesome. What fan models? Delta AFB1212SHE-PWM 2 of them in a push/pull. they work great. $20 a piece. Way quieter than stock. Anything is quiter than the stock fans. Those Delta's peak at 53dB, so I would say you are hearing about 50dB from two of those fans. I measured with a digital sound meter TWO s5's with using the Noctua's at 1 meter away was only 53dB. That's not bad for 2. Also, everyone's hearing is different. Some people hate that whining high pitch small fans make and some people it doesn't bother them. One reason I like those Noctua's. They have a low almost hum to them. Very far away from a high pitched whine noise. If it works for you and can keep the rig cool that's all that matters.

Awesome. What fan models? Delta AFB1212SHE-PWM 2 of them in a push/pull. they work great. $20 a piece. Way quieter than stock. Even a single Delta AFB1212SH works in push, which makes it a $10-11/miner mod and it is quieter than 1212SHE and way quieter than stock. I don't know if I believe that. I'd have to see it mining for 15+ minutes with that one fan to believe it. I mean if you did get that to work somehow more power to you, but one 25mm fan?

When I pulled the stock fan off, temps jumped. I just did a check.... Running at 386.75, i'm averaging 1.2T. Temps are holding at 58/60. HW 0.0001%

It runs at stock speed with just one Delta AFB1212SH PWM (thinner fan=25X120X120). Temp 61/58-reasonable. My ambient is ~30C. ~7 day running

But Bitmain....
What about the S2 upgrades?
They just laying under the shelf and waiting.....
Waiting for the final call from our R&D team which they would say "it's OK and please sell." It has been nearly a month. When do you expect that 'final call'? -OCS

I miss the old getwork protocol and the ability to monitor stats real-time via the cgminer user interface. Are there more robust versions of cgminer available I can upload and run from the shell command line?

You can use cryptoGlance to monitor all your machines on one screen, I just started using it, great little program: https://asktom.cf/index.php?topic=569924.0

You can still do that easily with the S5. Just log into the shell and attach to the running cgminer screen. Sometimes I have all of mine running on the screen at the same time. Dorky I know.

Are there definitions online at one place for what all the stats mean on the beaglebone firmware? Also, is Bitmain coming out with an updated firmware for the S5 to update cgminer, kernel and all that?
Another question. I setup three pools. When I view the miner status screen they all are alive, but it is hashing only at one pool of course. When do the other two become "dead"?
Definitions? DIFF GetWorks Priority Accepted Diff1# DiffA# DiffR# DiffS# Rejected what's the normal rate on this? Discarded what's the norm on this? Stale what's the norm on this? LSDIFF LSTIME
Maybe I'll write up something and put it online.....just confirming.
Thanks

My firmware maybe ? Oh forgot to mention, this action will void your warranty. Dunno why you want new kernel, current works well.

Use a ssh tool like Putyy log on that miners IP and type screen -r  .

notbatman and opentoe thanks for the tip. by having a look at that I noticed i was getting a load of invalid voltage errors. on investigating it seems if you alter the frequency the voltage for the chips gets wiped from the user config even though there isn't an option to do anything with the voltage.

Weeks have gone by, but the price is still the same. I thought Bitmain changed price all the time? As we all go further down the rabbit hole, you'd think there would have been a price decrease. Although, the last hardware my father received was dusty, dirty and used. Was supposed to be a new S5. Not a used one.

so i just got this fan in the mail http://www.amazon.com/Delta-TFC1212DE-PWM-120mm-Speed-Sensor/dp/B008NZSUPQ/ref=pd_cp_pc_2i put it on the back and its running full speed.. its not doing pwm. any ideas? so i thought that it was maybe overloading the fan controller, so i pulled the tac and pwm wire from the plug and plugged the fan red and black wires directly into a molex adapter.. and plugged the yellow and blue wire into the board on the s5. the s5 sees the fan, spinning at 4800 rpm.. but its not adjusting the speed. oh and i might have another problem, when i picked up my s5 this was on the floor.. it looks like it was there for awhile.  edit.. so after checking around, and plugging this fan into my motherboard with the molex adapter and pwm on the board.. it seems this fan has an inverted pwm controller.. 100% is 0 and 0% is full speed.. im not sure if this can be switched in the software of the s5.. or any other way.
