How to overclock your miner to 400MHz / 205GH/s. My suggestion is to clock them at 375. 400 is a bit too harsh on the voltage regulator.
All clock speeds including 375MHz work on both revision of boards.
The miner will draw 500 - 525Watts at the wall (110V mains) after this setting
A) ssh into your miner
B) edit the following file
/etc/config/asic-freq
C) change timeout to 36, freq_value to '0780', 'chip_freq' to 400.

Hi Guys,
some data to overclocked miner S1. they are not running 500 Watts, i dont know who sayed this wrong informations. i have 23 S1 and overclocked all to "400". there are no problems, even some of them just have 430 Watts of PSU. 23 Pcs. are running in exactly 9,2KW per hour at maximung consuption (peak)!
next, how eays to overclock them.
using "putty"
ssh into your miner with ip adress
then : vi /etc/config/asic-freq
next: press "i"
next: bash the "350" config s and delete the # on "400" settings
next: press Esc
next: write "wq" followed by "enter"
next: "y" and enter
next: reboot
thats all, thats how it works to me. be aware of temperatures. if you are running near 55degrees you have to install seconf ventilation. mine are runnig between 41 (lower groudn) and 53 on 2meter high. ambiente temps are max 22 degrees. hope i could help a bit.
if you like it and it works to you, please donate to :

thanks and happy mining
