$BTC Tech Nerd Army !
A very successful night of stability testing the NerdQaxe+ bitcoin miner. Up from a stock 2.5Th to 4.5Th. As seen on the pool log attached.
Unfortunately Its not always good news in the BTC R&D cave I'm afraid. This mornings job was to address a temperature concern, 1 asic (no1) was 15c above the rest.
Im afraid in the process of today's FAFO to get a better thermal mount of the PCB with asic chips.. it resulted in a poor mounting between the asics using indium heat springs and the heatsink.
The Result was 2 ASIC fried!
I saw a 200C reading on one...
I was expecting some shit like this to happen with what I am trying to develop for the overclocking Bitcoin mining community. Unlocking firmware comes with great risks when your task is to remove limits and un leash the hardware's true potential.
The next firmware release and Overclocking Dev work will be parked for the time being as this was my only NerdQaxe miner.
