Hi everyone,
I would like to make a review about the
Custom ROM from Eliovp for a Panda Miner (http://pandaminer.com).
I'm not going to say that its a must to buy a panda miner but I can really recommand it for that money and easy setup

For myself I'm running already a little panda miner farm (5 pandas, 2 already running, 3 on progress) and planning to expand up to 10-15 miners!
So if you have already a few pandas or you are planing to purchase some go ahead and read this review
IMPORTANT: The rom is not free and it only makes sense to buy if you are the owner of a few panda miners! For the price you have to contact Eliovp. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=pm;sa=send;u=236770Setup:Hardware: Panda Miner with 8 GPU's
http://pandaminer.com/default/product_detail?id=2OS: Windows 10 x64 LTSB 2016 English.
This review is based on two custom roms from Eliovp. But lets start with the out of the Box rom:
Build out of the Box (shipped Panda Miner with no modification on the rom):Stock Rom hashrate and power:With the stock rom I get the following hash rate for
Monero![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fi.imgur.com%2F9lTx0jG.jpg&t=665&c=yiUmDZiY5ugZiw)
The power consume during the mining with the stock rom:
Custom rom from Eliovp moderate version:This Custom rom from Eliovp is a great deal between power consume and hashrate
This doesn't touch the core and memory clock.
With the noderate version rom I get the following hash rate for
Monero![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fi.imgur.com%2FElEwLKx.jpg&t=665&c=wL7BBwc3jVVXBw)
The power consume during the mining with the moderate version rom:
Custom rom from Eliovp full speed version:This Custom rom from Eliovp brings still a better hashrate than the moderate one but for that it consumes a few extra watts.
This has a higher core clock and memory clock. Still no problem with temperate at all!
With the full speed rom I get the following hash rate for
Monero![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fi.imgur.com%2F1Bn9fWb.png&t=665&c=0XLGEe2nrY1Unw)
The power consume during the mining with the full speed rom:
Overall:Really great ROM from Eliovp once again which is worth every penny

All Custom roms from Eliovp are stable as a rock on my Panda Miner Windows machine (it will be the same on default image where the panda miner comes with!).
Quick overview:- Panda out of the BOX: Monero ~5880h/s ~945W
- Panda moderate rom: Monero ~6550h/s ~947W +12%
- Panda full speed rom: Monero ~6850h/s ~992W +17%
Once again, this rom is not free and I think its clear why
So if you are intrested in getting the custom rom from Eliovp just send him a PM:https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=pm;sa=send;u=236770thanks for reading and any feedback is appreciated:)
best regards

UPDATE 1:
ETH Hashrate with full speed rom:~246mh/s consumes 1190w
