I am currently running a 30GH/s little single @ pretty much 30 gh/s solid @ 21.5C. What can I do in form of tweaking, OC, Firmware update etc. to maximize the output? And what are 'safe temps'?

Possible small bounty of say BTC0.1-0.3 to most effective advice for increasing safe running hash rate. I would prefer not to open up, solder or generally mess with the unit.

I too am interested since mine just came in today. Anyone have suggestions for quieter, but still efficient fans? This thing is louder than a 5970...

I am mostly looking for straight 'pushing the Hash-rate' ways since @ a steady 22C I am sure the chips are underutilized as of current.

Did you take the case off? What is your ambient temp? Mine is hashing 30.5Gh/s @ 69C. I don't mind white noise but this thing is really hit the limit, I might have to put it outside my bedroom. Hopefully the roommates don't complain too much if I use the proceeds for beer...

There's 2 temps in BFGMiner,the first (I'm assuming) is ambient temp.The second is the chip temp.

My 30GH'er runs 69C also,so I don't think your reading the correct temp TheSwede75.

I'm intrested in OC'in as well,only if I can get my temps down first,I'll be watching  Wink

Honestly I am so damn lazy that I am just mining through Easyminer (private pool of course) with BFG. Temp was just easyminer output.

Easyminer is only showing ambient temps Huh  Well thats not good!! Try BFGMiner by itself & let us know what your REAL temp is  Cheesy

The first week my unit refused to go higher then 25GH, tried everything cgminer, bfgminer, easyminer.
Now I'm using minepeon (raspberry pi + cgminer) and it's up to 27GH @ 53C

Easyminer blows. Doesn't even show correct hash rate in graph, only in BFGminer logs.

BFGMiner was really easy to get going,as I have BEs running too,just follow these instructions  Grin

Awesome, thx. I'm not technically stupid, just don't have time to do all the research Smiley
Much obliged.

I reckon any overclocking would mean playing with firmware... Try firing up a serial console to the device and try the ZCX command to get full stats from them. Maybe have a few people start pasting here so we can compare Tongue

Probably should put something here.... Maybe an LTC address?

Hi to all.

I am looking for this kind of information (how to oc ls) too.

BTW maybe anyone can tell how long with standart shipping order from BFL comes to Europe? I have been noticed that at 17. august it has been shipped, here is the tracking number:

https://tools.usps.com/go/TrackConfirmAction.action?tLabels=CJ422490240US

but it seems not to go further, sometimes that happens when its already outside of USA, any have experience with Little singe orders to Europe? Thanks

How much CFM do they move? I have a bunch of extra 120mm fans but want to make sure they wont make it hotter than it already is, but I really cant stant the whine of the stock fans.
