Bitmain Antminer S15

Entering the Bitcoin market isn’t easy because everyone is trying to get their piece of the pie. The blockchains themselves have become harder than ever to complete. You need more than a simple GPU mining rig. You need a powerful ASIC miner that can get the job done as quickly as possible so that you get the maximum amount of Bitcoins.

That’s where the Antminer S15 comes in. This powerful, versatile, and flexible miner is great at mining Bitcoins and gives you several options to tweak its performance and power usage. Whether you’re entering the Bitcoin market now or you’re looking to increase your market share, the S15 is going to become your new best friend.

Smallest Chips and Transistors

We are the first company to create miners with 7nm chips and the benefits are astounding. Not only are 7nm chips smaller than the rest, which allows us to pack more chips in the machine and reduce the mining rig’s size, but you also get improved speed at a reduced power usage.

There are over 1 billion transistors per chip. All those transistors improve processing power, and yet, it requires close to no wattage when compared to its speed. If you’re not using 7nm chips, then you won’t get anywhere in the Bitcoin market. You need the best technology, and Bitmain brings you nothing but the newest and best.

Exposed Die Packaging

Our Antminer S15 uses revolutionary exposed die packaging that has numerous benefits. Many other miners, and other hardware for that matter, use an over-molding of plastic to encase the chips. This is safe and keeps the chips in place, but it also generates unnecessary heat and requires more energy to cool the miner.

The S15 uses exposed die packaging, which gives the chips a little more room to breathe without sacrificing safety. You get the same processing power, if not better, but with a much lower power requirement. You won’t be forcing the heatsink and fan to work too hard, which is good for longevity and operating costs.

Two Mining Modes

Everyone has their own preference when it comes to mining Bitcoins or any other cryptocurrency. Some people always want their miner to run at peak performance to get as much currency as possible in the shortest amount of time. Others have a marathon point of view and want to use less energy to reduce operating costs and improve the miner’s longevity while maintaining great performance.

The Antminer S15 gives you the option to choose how you want the miner to run. You can either push the S15 to its limits and let it process as fast as possible, or you can slow it down while significantly reducing power usage and costs. The choice is yours. Not only that, but switching between the two is easy and only takes a few seconds.

Parallel Fan Design

Heat dissipation is important for any miner because you want your hardware to run as quickly as possible, which generates a lot of heat. Much of the energy used to run the miner is due to this heat. The hotter the internal temperature, the harder the fan and heatsink must work to keep your miner cool. Anything that reduces heat also reduces operational costs while improving longevity, which means more money and profit for you.

The Antminer S15 uses a new parallel fan structure that shortens wind speed while also reducing wind resistance. You’ll find that this miner runs cooler than any other of similar strength, which means you’ll be spending less to generate Bitcoins.

Hash Rate and Power Consumption

The Antminer S15 is capable of a maximum hash rate of 28 TH/s while only consuming 1596 W. This is a massive amount of hashing power while only requiring the bare minimum of wattage. Feel free to setup several to make a massive network of processing power, or just install one and you’ll see how much this is able to mine.

The hash rate drops in energy-saving mode, but not by that much and you’ll find that it consumes significantly less power. You’ll get a maximum hash rate of 18 TH/s at only 900 W. While less powerful than high-performance mode, you’d have a hard time finding another miner with this hash rate at such a low rate of energy consumption.

For those wondering about power efficiency, high-performance mode is around 57 J/TH while energy-saving mode is around 50 J/TH. This is dependent on them operating at 25 C.

There is an Ethernet port for easy installation and maximum speeds, and the miner is only 7kg so that it’s simple to move around.

Noise Level

Mining rigs aren’t exactly quiet, but you don’t want one that is hard on your ears. You’ll find the rig runs at around 75db, which is fairly standard for larger miners. You should have no problems being around this machine while it’s running without having to cover your ears.

Here are some of Antminer S15’s best features:

  • Tremendous hash rate of 28 TH/s and only 1596 W power consumption for optimal speed and power usage

  • Has two modes that prioritize either speed or power consumption: high-efficiency and energy-saving

  • Only weighs 7kg and uses an Ethernet port, making it easy to move around and install

  • Smallest 7nm chips for optimal performance while reducing overall size

  • Uses newest design trends to drastically reduce heat while improving performance

Mining Bitcoin requires that you use the best technology to ensure you get the largest reward at the lowest cost possible. Bitcoin has become a difficult market to enter because there is so much competition and the blockchains have become massive. You need the strongest hardware at the lowest operating costs if you want to make significant revenue.

The Antminer S15 is one of the strongest miners around that also utilizes new design trends for reduced power consumption and enhanced reliability. While entering the crypto market is a gamble no matter what you choose to mine, our miner has the speed and reliability you are looking for.
