About this miner
The Bitmain Antminer S3 is an ASIC miner by Bitmain for the SHA-256 algorithm, rated at 478 GH/s on 366 W. It came out in July 2014. At 765.7 J/TH it uses 2835% more power per hash than the median SHA-256 miner we track (26.1 J/TH). At $0.036/kWh its power costs more than it earns mining BTC (−$0.30 a day), so it only pays with cheaper electricity. No store lists it on MinerPrices at the moment. At 60 dB it suits a garage or basement with good ventilation.
