Title: ASIC Blade V2 High Rate, New T-grease, Crashes
Post by: minedcoins on March 11, 2014, 03:36:48 AM
I purchased a used Blade V2 (no fuse) off Amazon. At first the machine would run on BTCguild for a while but would quit running and display all 'x' after 'chip' in the config screen.

After changing the thermal grease to Antec diamond-based and removing the thermal pad, the miner ran to about 17Gh/s and would report about 11-12gh/s on a pool before crashing.

Config details before crash:
Total MHS: 16521
Recieved: 0000001696
Accepted: 0000002662
Per Minute: 232.48
Efficiency: 156.95%
Up Time: 0d,00h,11m,27s
Chip: 000000000000000000000000000


*note* it does operate well for the first few minutes and I do have a fan blowing on it. Also, machine is connected to my computer's Ethernet port which supplies the internet connection.
