Bitcoin mining machine antminer S17+ is divided into 76T, 73T, 70T, 67T and 64T according to different computing power, with a power consumption ratio of about 40W/T.  How is the actual performance of Ant S17+? Next, please follow the cloud xiaobian to enjoy the third-party independent experience evaluation of ant flagship mining machine S17+ 76T with the highest computing power!  

 

1. Appearance of antminer S17+ 76T  

 

From the beginning of the S17 series bitcoin mining machine released by Bitmain in March 2019, antminer S17's outer packaging size has always maintained a unified specification, 486*388*265 industrial carton packaging, box marked with manufacturer information, antminer logo, logistics warehousing logo, mining machine specifications and bar identification code, logistics weight 11kg ▼  


The interior is sealed by the customized tian-di cover pearl foam mining machine, and there are gaps around it to facilitate the mining machine to take and place. There are mining machine certificate and multi-language instructions in the box, and there are 4 small pieces of self-adhesive gaskets. Why are there such gaskets  

  • Built-in mining machine by anti-static shielding bag enhanced protection ▼


Ant S17+ 76T and other S17 series of mining machine is not very different, the use of the front and rear double exhaust parallel double fan all-in-one machine design ▼  


Second, antminer S17+ 76T details comment  

 

Antminer S17+ 76T adopts ultra-high integration integrated machine design, mining machine changes need to be analyzed from the details, we analyze step by step through disassembly, ▼  

Control board position all kinds of connection lines are arranged in an orderly manner, all the connection lines have been sorted out, the control board and the power plate between the use of the traditional line connection ▼  


  • The interface and function keys on the control panel are similar to those before 



After removing the shell, it can be seen that the connection between the power supply and the power plate uses two bronze plates to connect the three power plates together. The bronze plate connected to the power supply is in a cross direction, and the bronze plate is marked with positive and negative poles ▼  


Antminer APW9+ power supply dual PFC and PWM output can prolong component life and enhance reliability, using three fans to provide active heat dissipation for the power supply ▼  

antminer APW9+ power junction i. COMPACT, solid material, double input reduces the power consumption and safety risk of input cable socket heating  


Fan details  

 

Next, explore the ant S17+ 76T heat dissipation guarantee, the whole machine uses two and two and a total of 4 fans to provide heat dissipation, and the shell of the fixed use of buckle and screw form ▼  




Calculate the details of the force plate  

 

After disassembling the fan, you can see the force plate, ant S17+ 76T machine built-in 3 pieces of force plate, 3 pieces of force plate through the clamping slot installed in the chassis ▼  



Each plate is loaded with 65 7nm chips, and the three plates are 195 chips in total  


Both sides of the calculation force plate are covered with stainless steel heat sink of different length, the heat sink on the air inlet side is short and scattered, the more to the wind side length and density is greater, perhaps this is ant S17+ 76T depth customized optimization of heat dissipation design, of course, more depth is reflected in the software control, this aspect is not seen  


(Calculate the front of the force plate)


The shell details  

 

Antminer S17 + 76 t case no longer USES the one-piece casting structure, but is divided into two parts, both sides forming, through card slot connection again as a body, this structure makes the mill when placed flat because in the middle of the protrusions caused a little slope mining opportunities, this may also explain why the packaging will be attached to the inside 4 small piece of adhesive the cause of the gasket, the case for the aluminum alloy material,  It is not common for the inner wall to show the color of the rainbow. There is no research on the specific material used  

3.Installation and debugging of antminer S17+ 76T  

 

Hardware installation  

 

Ant S17+ 76T mining machine does not have a standard power line when it leaves the factory, the mine and miners' partners need to prepare two power lines in advance, it is recommended to use the national standard 1 square 10A power line, only after the two power lines are connected, the mining machine will start, it is not recommended that family miners use the same 10A socket with mining machine.  

 

Connect ant S17+ 76T with network cables and plug in two power cables. After the mining machine is started, enter the router to find the IP address of the mining machine.  Or use the ant mine machine tool https://www.antpool.com/download/tools/APMinerTool_V1.0.10.zip combined with IP to find the report button.  

 

The software configuration  

 

After finding the IP address of the mining machine, enter the IP address into the browser address and enter the user name and password (the default user name and password of the mining machine are both root) to enter the mining machine control page ▼  



Click "Miner Configuration" to enter the mining pool modification page, ant mining machine factory default mine pool address is empty, you need to modify the main mine pool address and Miner name, according to the need to modify the standby mine pool address and Miner name, click "Save&Apply" to save the Settings, mining machine can automatically start mining ▼  


Antminer S17+ 76T mining machine startup power consumption of about 40W, noise 73 dB ▼  

After antminer S17+ 76T has been running for more than 24 hours, you can see that the control page shows the calculation power of 78.5T ▼  

The antminer S17+ 76T air outlet temperature is 50.9 degrees Celsius, and the power supply air outlet temperature is 38.7 degrees Celsius  




Power supply bus (GB 2.5 square) temperature 27.6 degrees, single mining machine power line (GB 0.75 square) temperature 28 degrees ▼  


Antminer S17+ 76T power consumption is 3100W, noise value at close range is about 79 decibels ▼
