Antminer S1 , printscreen comments!

[tzortz]

Hi all again,

I share this print-screen of one of my Antminers I have (and had) in my hands and wanted to have some comments from the experienced and not.

A brief analysis of what you see would be appreciated.

All looks fine for an over-clocked S1 Ant.  Is there anything specific you were concerned about?

Yes, any comments about the hw?

Wish I could get mine to 400 with so few HW.  Numbers are real good.

Yes! That is what I am trying to point out.

I have tested more than 40 S1s and this beautiful one is hashing like a charm. Steady speed and so low HW like less than 0.02% !

Rest of S1s I have tested vary from 0.9% to 3.1% (overclocked to 400 Mhz).

So much hardware variation in their construction!

This is normal. It's the same reason why different AMD GPUs can overclock or undervolt better than others. Every single chip is going to be slightly different, and this is no exception. You happened to get an S1 that's full of really good chips. Be happy about it!

Yes you are right. Thank you for your comments.

The thing is that is the only one I ever had to be that low HW, while the very next best, is far worse than this one, like 0.2%!
Meaning ten times worse than this beautiful 0.02%!

I have compared at least 40 pieces in my sampling range.

My 4 overclocks to 400 barely hit 195 with shit tons of HW errors.  Nothing like this unit at all.

Dont feel bad. Most of the rest I tested are like yours.

Temps seems quite low, any added cooling? What's the ambient?

Ambient is 22 C max in the midday ( 72F approximately).

I am on the full fan speed mod, so no pwm is working.  Stock fan.
I believe that we need to keep them as cool as possible to avoid any problems with the overclocked ants.

Do you agree?

Cold = Happy Ants.... Thats a nice one you got there

Whats the full fan speed mod?

Thanks for your comments.

The mod is nothing special, just pin the fan plug of red+black to the 12v of psu.
I can show you some pics of how you can do it without cutting the stock wires.

Mine overclocks like a dying pig to 400. Tons of HW errors.

I'm running it at 375 and it's nice and stable with very few errors.

You got lucky with your random draw. Enjoy it.

I have exhaust fans on the "other" side of my ants, "CUT THE BLUE WIRE" as advised, works at 100% power all the time...

Would need to warm up a little more to do this to the factory fans

Why do you have the same pool 3 times? The point of having different pools is so you stay mining 24/7 if one goes down.

I would add in other pools.

Otherwise looks good. Great temps!

I have 3 ants running, all at 400. One has 2.1% HWE, one has 1.5% and the other .78% I'm gonna try and cool mine a bit more as they are sitting around 45-48.

You are right, I was to lazy to make anew account on eligious.

But now I need to do it, Ghash has some issues lately.

I would be afraid running them that high.
