ZEUSMINER BLIZZARD miners

[josephchrzempiec]

Hello i was wondering if anyone knows what chips the ZEUSMINER BLIZZARD is using? Sense there is only 6 chips on it. 2 of them are dead and I'm trying to replace them. Sad thing is someone looks like either grind the chips silkscreen off or they are Blank. Is there anyway to find them or tell at least what they are?

This article on CCN.com (click for link) says the miner uses 55nm ZeusMiner chips but doesn't give any further information on the specs of the chips other than that, though I did do a search for the 55nm ZeusMiner chips and it seems to be the same ones that are in the other larger ZeusMiner units like the X3 and the Falcon as well.

This post from Cryptomining-blog (click for link) shows the name of the chip as 'ZEUS101' and a few numbers afterwards. Seems to be the only picture of a disassembled Blizzard I can find at the moment.

Hello Leowonderful thank you. I saw the same thing and i couldn't find where to buy these at?  Seems to be that they own have and keep secret about.

ZeusMiner went bankrupt a few years ago AFAIK and most of their miners don't seem to be on the used market much anymore, much less individual working chips. I did manage to find fully working units on eBay but I assume you're just trying to find chips to repair the unit. Also seems like nobody's trying to sell any ZeusMiner units on here recently too.

That is where i bought mine from it was actually new still sealed in box. But I'm now looking at a broken one that kinda works but half the chips are dead and i can take the other 3 on there and fix mine.

Are you looking to run these or is it just for a hobby of some sort.  I haven't seen Zeus products in awhile.  You aren't looking to run them functionally to mine are you?

Hello theses are just for hobby because they don't mine much. I have 2 of the L3++ miners i use and 2 GPU miners.

I figured as much was just wondering.  Always fun tinkering with old equipment, if it breaks beyond repair nothing lost   good luck with your search

Well i have a few of these boards. this is the only one that die on me. I'm trying to repair it. I would like to put it into use. Right now just tinkering with it trying to learn all i can. and see if i can repair it. As soon as i get this dead board in and transplant it from the other board to this one I would like to put it into use.  But for now just playing with it learning.
