My rant. But I think as long as the frequency is lowered, not raised, then it should not void any warranty. They made them completely inoperable at their default frequency. I would open a repair ticket with them first though. Typical Bitmain.
I have 4 tickets open and they haven't responded to a single one.
Lol
So should I assume that chain #2 is done for since it doesn't even show the X's and O's?
I've also noticed that the third pool doesn't register any pool? I've tried mining pool hub and nice hash and both come up as dead?
4 Tickets and no response? Yikes. On mine they take 24-48 hours. I'm not in anyway remotely an authority or experienced enough on these diagnostics, but if chain 2 is not showing X or O, I would "guess" controller board?
So many issues with the D3's and I feel (have a hunch maybe?) that there are big-time firmware issues globally.
I'm curious to hear if others are experiencing, would love hear the issues and what they've done in diagnosing and troubleshooting this.
After 2 days running on a D3 with issues, Chain 1 just went entirely X'd. Before 4 days all chains X'd. And prior to that Chain 2 showed 3 ASICs X'd. This is puzzling and driving me bonkers. I feel like I need to diagnose each board for 2-4 days now each to see. Is that practical? What is strange to me are the temps and the fan (Chain 1 and 2 running solo/individually, the fan goes to 6k, 3 only at 4k). Temp on chain 3 solo gets gets to 77c (Scary) and yet when all run at once the fan is at 4k (Temps run: C1: 69c, C2: 63c, and C3: 70-71c). Chain 3 solo show HW errors but all three running show absolutely 0 HW errors. It's very odd.
I'm lost. I'm thinking firmware? And maybe Bitmain is swamped with these issues. We, or at least the large majority of the mining community, have financed them to a monopoly and likely funded their new Sophon AI brand. I think we all just need to persist on reporting these issues, and keep opening tickets. They need to back their products.
