Hello guys,

                My T17 42T is running with 88'C "Chip temp", running time is 30 mins. I want to know chip temperature is ok or not.
Do i need to cooler the miner?

hi, i suggest to you cooler this, 90c is the redline ! over 90c, the chance of down is high

While 88c is within the normal range specified by the manufacturer, you should take this info and toss it out because the manufacturer doesn't tell you that these T17 gears use a very low-quality solder which will break a lot sooner than you think, and thus, you want to try to run them as cool as possible to "hopefully" get them to hash longer.

Or use a firmware that lets you slow it down...

This family of miners is infamous for its poor soldering quality.
