Hello, recently ordered a complete immersion cooling system from DCX https://cryptocooling.eu and waiting for delivery. my plan is to fit 8 T17+ in there and upgrade their firmware to the max, guys from DCX explained to me how to prep the ASICs for the immersion and the firmware upgrades I am thinking are mskminer.com or Asic.to as this is a first for me would like to learn from people with experience on the subject tips on prepping the machines to be immersed and of course best or better firmware upgrades for immersed T17s many thanks in advance

Cool topic, can you share some photos and a DIY story if you are finish. How much cost your setup if you are finish and your Asic Miner are Running?
Best regards Willi

Op, i would chose vnish (awesome miner) as that lets you use the monitoring software without extra cost, since you will be overclocking the miners, you need something like that.
Also, be careful with the PSU rating, some profiles on those custom firmware require a custom PSU, the solder on those gears is bad so make sure the fluid you use is of a very high quality.
Like willi i am also interested.

Cost me around 7k Euro from DCX https://dcx.eu , would love to share some pictures, thing is tried but don't know how to this here my plan is to use some beaten T17 that I have to experiment, trial and error and if everything works out ok switch to S19s

Mikey Would like to know more about vnish, was thinking to overclock using asic.to my plan is to take them all apart and wash everything really good with iso propylic alcohol before put them in the liquid

Asic.to is vnish too, see vnish has many distributions, they all are the same, the difference is what you get from using one of the different versions, asic.to has a great own support for the firmware, AwesomeMiner lets you pay the monitoring fees using those built-in firmware fees so you don't have to spend more on monitoring license. So all in all, it all depends on what would you need the most out of these "extra features", but Vnish as a whole is a lot better than mskminer IMO. as for uploading images, use something like https://imgur.com/ and post the link here.

Nice video. How many units on each pipe? Those pieces of gear push around 500 cfm each. the feed to the main pipe looks to be big enough. I am trying to figure if the main pipe is big enough. I am also looking to see if the main pipe has a pull fan on it. https://learnmetrics.com/cfm-calculator/... Flex Duct Diameter: CFM (Airflow) 4-inch 20 CFM 5-inch 50 CFM 6-inch 80 CFM 7-inch 120 CFM 8-inch 170 CFM 9-inch 230 CFM 10-inch 300 CFM 12-inch 500 CFM 14-inch 740 CFM 16-inch 1050 CFM 18-inch 1400 CFM 20-inch 1875 CFM ... I would think the big pipe can handle 4 to 6 units of gear max. more charts https://hvacdirect.com/hvac/pdf/Field_duct-sizing-chart.pdf

Very cool (pun intended). I looked into immersion cooling a few years back but the solutions that were available were in the 6 figure price range. Seeing these units at what I consider to be an affordable price point makes me happy. I'm looking forward to hearing your experience as I would consider using something like this in my garage if it were possible, which it sounds like it is. Having some GPUs in there with some ASICs would be a pretty awesome at home setup. I've been hesitant to go this route as I worry it is what I don't know that will cause me problems, so I'm looking forward to learning more from you about the entire process from ordering, to setup, to maintaining everything. Good luck!

Interesting setup with the pipes. Are the pipes only for push the heat out or do you use it for heating your house or what ever. Love that kind of topic…
Best regards from Germany Willi

At the moment pipes only move air out but of course could be used for heating house also I guess

"boards have serial numbers and will not mix and match from different cases" that i thought that was the case lol guess i have to trial and error to figure out now how to put everything together and what board goes to what miner... learning process all the way!!! Hey!!, don't even worry about that, only the stock firmware cares about that, vnish doesn't read the voltage stored in the EEPROM and thus you can mix and match boards all you want, I tend to believe all other custom firmware do the same, I just don't have a good experience with them, but I know vnish works. Obviously, since you will need to disable the fans and overclock the miner, you won't be using the stock firmware either way. Also, you have got a loose heatsink shown in this image, you have to solder it back on, I highly doubt you can get away with no-heatsink even with Immersion cooling. Thanks for keeping this topic updated.

project update, after getting fed-up trying to sort the t17+s with messed up hashboards decided to sell them all and never buy t17 or anything from the 17 series ever again, managed to score some Avalons 1166 from a farm that closed down in China only 3 months used and still under warranty so I decided to immerse them instead https://imgur.com/GiwPVjWjust received the Avalons, they run sweet with good hash rate and feels good to buy asics under warranty would appreciate any recommendations for firmware upgrades for the 1166 for immersion and air-cooled Meanwhile preparing the space where the pool goes and as soon as I have something that's worth watching will post some pictures. many thanks

Hah, I'm a newbie to ASIC mining and I thought the Bitmain S17/T17 series was a good idea. I thought the price was good for the efficiency. Then I read some threads on this forum, and I discovered what an idiot I was! Better to go with the T19 or a 2 year old Whatsminer/Avalon machine.
I was also dumb for assuming that ASICs are as reliable as GPUs. Even the most reliable ASIC models seem to have failure rates of 5%+ per year. Compare that to 2-3% on GPUs.
Thanks for sharing your real-world experience.
