Hi guys,
I recently received a compac f stick from bitcoinmerch (after ordering it back in early November).
Unfortunately i haven't been able to get it to run nearly as well as the other 2 sticks I have that i got from asicpuppy in nov-dec. These are able to hash 350Gh/s+ @ 575ghz
After having made the purchase online Bitcoinmerch said that they were out of stock so I just had to wait.
Eventually they got new sticks at the end of january and what i recently received was apparently one of those
With some guidance from Kano I've tried:
- adjusting the start and target frequencies with cgminer
- adjusting the pot screw
- trying different ports on the Gekkoscience hub that i have.
(both with the stick solo and with the other 2 sticks)
I've got fans all over them too.
Any other suggestions?
The stick isn't able to maintain 400ghz and resets so I'm guessing it's probably just a dud.
What caught my attention was the serial number.
It's a lower number than the sticks i got from asicpuppy.
Is it possible that bitcoinmerch sent me an old stick they had floating around rather than a new one form the batch i'd waited months for?
Bitcoinmerch stick serials:
number on metal usb part: 20462
serial in cgminer: 10050154
Asicpuppy stick serials:
number on metal usb part: 20485
serial in cgminer: 10050448, 10050449
haha and chilean customs hit me with $70USD tax, wankers.
