What is the hashrate and power consumption of the KS5M?

The KS5M is specified at ~ 15 TH/s ±10% and power consumption of around 3 400 W ±10%.

When was the KS5M released and how does it compare to predecessors?

The KS5M is listed as a model released May 2024 (in one spec). It is positioned as a next-gen Kaspa miner with ~15 TH/s for 3.4 kW.

What accessories or power cable information should be known?

The official FAQ from IceRiver states that many units (including KS series) do not include a power cable; buyers must purchase separately.

What distinguishes the KS5M compared with similarly-spec’d miners?

The KS5M offers one of the higher hashrates in the Kaspa kHeavyHash category (~15 TH/s) with relatively moderate power (3.4 kW) compared to earlier miners in the algorithm class. However, its efficiency (~226 J/TH) means power cost remains a major factor.

What real-world performance & reliability feedback exist?

Reviews mention the unit dissipates heat effectively and maintains stable hashrate, though noise and power draw remain significant at 75 dB and ~3.4 kW.
