GRIDSEED 320-420 KH/S ASIC poor hash rates

[Sukophantes]

So I purchased 3 Gridseed miners through zoomhash. I also got the preconfigured raspberry pi. The setup was easy and the gridseed began doing it's job. The problem I have is the KH rates are not what I expected. I understand there will be fluctuation, but i'm seeing on average a 400 KH/s rate for the 3 when I was expecting a 800-900 KH/s average. Is there anything I can do without harming the hardware to get these miners up to at least a 300 KH/s per miner?

I'm new to crypto currency and this forum. If i've posted this in the wrong area, please direct me to the right discussion.

From what I read, that is the around correct hashing power that they should each be running at. You're doing just fine.

What made you have this expectation? I have a hunch the source of the problem is your expectation, and this may or may not be related to (typically dishonest) product marketing.

Next time just buy Bitcoins, at 430, BTC's fiat exchange rate has almost assuredly reached a nadir.

It must be my expectations that are the problem if this is normal. I know fluctuation is normal. I just seen the advertised KH/s at 320-420, so I'd expect the average to be around 300 KH/s. I purchased a USB dual miner some time ago and it advertised 70KH/s and the average i got out of it was 65KH/s. Thanks for the info all.

Erm... I get 340 kh/s per sec on my single gridseed. How can it be possible for 3 seeds to go 400kh/s?

Sukophantes,

I don't think your Raspberry is configured correctly. You are right. For 3 Gridseed's you should get around 1100 to 1300kh/s. You may want to read a little about configuring the Pi here on the forums.
