Title: Bitmain tells me its fine. Yet they try to blame me for the last fire....R4
Post by: Evan on August 07, 2017, 12:30:30 AM
So i have an R4 its kept in a basement with a box fan on it, Basement is relatively low on humidity. Never the less that shouldn't matter much here. What does matter.

Chips are reporting 101 that's at 66f Ambient and running of a 1200watt 220v Server PSU. WITH A BOX FAN Blowing more air into the unit. Unit has been cleaned out by Bitmain recently.

What should I do?

Nothing. My R4B2 reports 99-103 on one of the chips for a year now.  Keeps running just fine so don't sweat it!   ;)

Agreed. It is fine.

That said, what does the intentional defamatory use of the word 'fire' in the title have to do with anything in the post itself? That is, other than showing us you are a yutz wanting to do anything to be noticed?

Prior to this Bitmain China tried to tell me that some how I was at fault for a R4 working perfectly fine for 6 months, then when applying a patch from bitmain, the power plugs, melting and charring the PSU cables.
