6. I see "x" in the ASIC Status
For the ASIC status wise, "x" doesn't necessary means the chip is faulty or failing. If the hashing power seems to be affected, please check your PSU and wiring and reboot and check the status a few times. It should go back to an average 168-180 gh/s range per AntMiner.
when you are getting "x" on the ASIC chip status, please turn off the antminer and double check your PSU cables are connected well and restart. Check the status in about 5 minutes and every 30 minutes for a few hours and see if the "x" are showing up constantly at the same chip or randomly changes or completely disappear.

After shutting down and changing the pci-e connectors from PSU, I am now getting close to 180 GH/s. But still see some Xs. Previously, one chain had all 0's and the other showed lots of Xs. Now I see this:
xxxooooo oooooooo oooooooo oooooooo
oooooooo oooooooo oooooooo ooooxooo
is this a PSU problem ?
it could be a PSU problem bro. what kind of PSU are you using ? when you see an "x" that means a cheap failed to initialize. so it's either the PSU or the chip is just funky. cosult w/Sushi or Bitmain
