Title: HELP - Overclocking Bitmain AntMiner S3+ (Batch 10) ???
Post by: bilabonic on December 14, 2014, 11:26:08 AM
Hi All

I have a few Dragon 1Th miners and have just purchased a Bitmain AntMiner S3+ (Batch 10) with these detail -

'The S3+, is a revised version of S3 running stably at 453GH/s (frequency=225 MHz), while consumes 355 Watt power at the wall. Most miners will be able to run up to 500GH/s but not guaranteed. Over-clocking can be achieved directly from a drop-down list in the user interface.'

Would you guys recommend overclocking it ? Is there a guide here on how to do it ??

At the moment i only have a Corsair 750w PSU (left over from GPU mining !!!)

Anyone advise ?

Thanks

You can easily overclock it via the "advanced" tab under "miner configuration" in the web interface. 750W PSU will suffice as long as you use all 4 PCIe connectors.
Expect a power draw up to ~500W - you need to do the math if that's okay with the price you're paying.

Here's an overclocking thread with good information on the S3 chips.
