Title: KncMiner Saturn underperforming Post by: tex4ever on January 01, 2014, 10:57:18 AM Hi guys, I got an Saturn (October Batch) and it is underperforming -> running at 240 Ghs, but it should have 275 GHs.
It is running with the firmware 0.99.1-tune I did: - downgraded the firmware to 0.98.1 - hard reset - enablecores.bin Nothing helped. Do you know what I can do else? Thank you guys!

Title: Re: KncMiner Saturn underperforming Post by: giletto on January 01, 2014, 11:02:44 AM All ASIC Miner are specified with optimum Gh/s +/- 10%. In your case if the optimum amount is 270-275Gh/s, you calculate -10% and you are still within the specification.

Well to be honest if I buy something and I have varranty that it WILL work within specific speed, and it does NOT, then at least I would like an explanation why, or other kind of assistance :) Title: Re: KncMiner Saturn underperforming Post by: zoran on January 01, 2014, 06:48:31 PM Hi guys, I got an Saturn (October Batch) and it is underperforming -> .... Nothing helped. Do you know what I can do else? Thank you guys! October loves when it is hot. What is your temperatures? Go up to 75-80 C when check again. ;) PS bertmod helps a lot with diagnostics and without any harm. Title: Re: KncMiner Saturn underperforming Post by: giletto on January 01, 2014, 07:22:55 PM All KNC love it hot, even my jupiter. If the temp going under 50 degree i lose at least 10GH/s, if over 60 run smooth and perfect with 680Gh/s instead of 650!
Title: Re: KncMiner Saturn underperforming Post by: tex4ever on January 01, 2014, 10:01:38 PM Hi thanks to your replies. Well about the heat: My ASICS has 45 degrees. How can I make them more hot? Disable the fans?
Title: Re: KncMiner Saturn underperforming Post by: giletto on January 02, 2014, 04:04:31 AM NO! Of course not...but how is your environment, where the miner stay and work? Where do you live?
Title: Re: KncMiner Saturn underperforming Post by: tex4ever on January 02, 2014, 01:38:23 PM Well the miner is at home. Room temperature is about 20 degrees.
Title: Re: KncMiner Saturn underperforming Post by: giletto on January 02, 2014, 01:52:33 PM You work with open miner, or did you close the case (not sure that your knc has a case for close as mine)
If i open or close my case the temperature difference between 5-10 degree. Title: Re: KncMiner Saturn underperforming Post by: Saproach on January 02, 2014, 01:52:58 PM The latest firmware allows you to tweak the voltage per die per asic. Hit their support forum and read about it. Many October owners are struggling with this.
