About the Bitmain Antminer S5 (1.155TH/s)

Learn more about this ASIC miner, including its specifications, performance, energy consumption, and profitability.

The Bitmain Antminer S5 is an ASIC built for SHA-256 work, producing 1.155 TH/s while drawing about 590 W-simple numbers that tell a clear story: effective once, modest now. It uses Bitmain’s BM1384 chips on a 28 nm process, yielding roughly 0.51 J/GH, and sits in an open-frame chassis that aids airflow and heat dissipation. Compact and portable, it measures roughly 275 x 155 x 136 mm and tips the scales at about 3.5 kg, which makes it easy to deploy on a bench or in a small rig, yet its fan noise-around 65 dB, comparable to a household vacuum-means you’ll want it out of quiet living spaces or paired with sound mitigation. Launched in 2014, it was competitive then but has since been outpaced by more efficient, higher-hash models; today it’s rarely profitable at scale, yet it remains valuable for learning, experimenting with custom firmware, testing pool configurations, or running low-stakes hobby operations. Operational realities matter: mining returns hinge on electricity cost, pool fees, network difficulty, and coin prices, and thermal design, ventilation, and stable power will strongly influence longevity and uptime. For hands-on tinkerers, optimizations such as careful undervolting, alternative firmware, and rack or enclosure cooling can squeeze extra life from the unit; for those focused on practical deployment, consider noise control, heat recovery, and realistic profitability modeling over daily, monthly, and yearly horizons before committing hardware or time.

Learn more about the Bitmain Antminer S5 (1.155TH/s)

The Antminer S5 reads like a small, resolute machine with an inner geography-an exposed open frame that lets wind and dust pass through like weather across a basalt plain, its BM1384 chips-cast in a 28 nm process-lined like neurons across hashing boards, beating out 1.155 TH/s as if it were a steady pulse, while drawing roughly 590 watts and yielding about 0.51 J/GH, measurements that anchor its physiology to practical limits; its compact body, 275 × 155 × 136 mm and about 3.5 kg in mass, carries fans that sing at roughly 65 dB, a vacuum-cleaner hymn that makes a curious neighbor to domestic calm and argues for enclosures, sound baffles or remote installation, and the obvious compromises of an open design-easy access for maintenance and firmware experiments but vulnerability to particulate and ambient conditions. Designed for SHA-256 work and natively tapping into power via a 12V PCIe connection compatible with standard ATX supplies, the S5 was a competitive actor in the network when it debuted in 2014, yet time has reshaped the landscape: more efficient ASICs now dominate large-scale operations, turning the S5 into a pedagogical artifact and a workshop companion for those who tinker-perfect for custom firmware, undervolting trials, pool configuration tests, and learning the interplay of thermal design, ventilation and stable power that determines uptime and longevity. If you intend to repurpose it, practical notes matter: experiment with conservative undervolting and alternative firmware to eke out life and reduce heat, consider rack mounting or tailored enclosures to manage airflow and noise, and where possible capture waste heat; operational returns hinge less on romantic notions of hashes than on cold variables-electricity expense per kilowatt-hour, pool fees, shifting network difficulty and coin valuations-so realistic modeling over daily, monthly and yearly horizons, alongside attention to cooling, dust control and power stability, will dictate whether the S5 is an educational relic, a low-stakes miner, or a clever component in a larger experimental rig.
