Title: S1 Miners, Chip heat and sufficent heat displacement.
Post by: spazzdla on July 17, 2014, 01:13:25 PM
So.. I have 4 S1 ant miners.. Ne ways long story short The one in my room the chips are at 55c.. the ones in the TV room were at 68-70c :S :S :O uh oh.. I should check more often.. ne ways the shelf they are on was pressed right against the wall..(BBBAD IDEA) I moved the shelf out from the wall 12" and check the temp an hour later.. all droped to 55c.  F YA no more over heating worries.

That is my story.. give your miners lots of room to displace the heat.

You should mention plenty of cooling and airflow. If it's necessary, get some thermal paste or pads, stick them onto the chips and stick a heatsink on it. That's a bit extreme, but if needed, do it.
