Update 20.9

Seems that 412.50 MHz is too much, 2 chips went offline and 406.25 MHz seems stable... All the hassle for just ~3GH/s... well you win some you lose some...

e: HW error rate seems to be around 0.25% ... Not bad at all...

Thanks, I tried to push the miner to 425MHz but 2 chips failed immidiately, or reported that they do not work. So I setteled with your settings 406MHz and so far it seems stable with temps @ 24C and 25C, ambient 17C / hw= 0.22% ...

Would really like to know what is 410Mhz and 415Mhz...

#406
#option 'freq_value'    '6002' #406M
#option 'chip_freq'     '406.25'
#option 'timeout'       '35'

Hi everybody (my 1st post)

I have an Antminer S1 and I tried to find the right frequency settings for over 400MHz clocking. I have a seriously modded Antminer pushing at ~205GH/s with an HW error rate of 0.025%.

I know the 400 setting is

option 'freq_value'   '4f81'        #400M
option 'chip_freq'     '400'
option 'timeout'       '35'

but I am looking to overclock to eg. 410MHz --> 425MHz --> 450MHz

Could someone tell what the freq_values for these settings would be.

Much appriciated

hi, I have several S1's and if needed, can always get them to reset to 192.168.1.99... I just recently took one outside and blew it with air to get some cat hair out of it and when I went to hook it up, it would not mine, so I tried to do the reset button every which way and it won't reset... for some reason the orange light won't come on the  network plug... I have tried multiple network cables, ports, psu's and no matter what can't get the thing to reset... I am at my wits end and don't know what to do... it just won't reset and turn the orange light on - its like it needs to be shocked or reset, but the reset button and holding it down and restarting isn't doing the trick, any suggestions?

Here you go:

Sorry if this was already asked, I just couldn't find it anywhere.  But here's my question:  Are you able to clock the Antminer S1 at a frequency that isn't something like  350, 375, 400, etc.  Something in-between those numbers.  I recently received an Antminer S1 and had it clocked to 375 because my PSU doesn't have enough watts on the 12 volt rail to go to 400.  I want to get the most out of my miner before it becomes non-profitable though, so can I clock it to something like 380 or 390?  I think I remember someone doing 389.9 because it ran better than 400, not too sure.  Thanks and sorry if this is a stupid question, I'm new to Antminers a bit.

I don't think just cooling down the DC-DC controller will bailout the Antminer S3 problem.
It may increase the hashrate a little bit more or help to hash it with more stability.
I'm designing a setup to cool the DC-DC controller extremely down with heatsink and water cooling pipe setup.
No high expectations but checking whether it can hold at 504Ghs or 478Ghs or atleast stable at 441Ghs.
Will try it at S1 before moving to S3. Now I'm searching for some small copper pipes, do anyone know a source to get it?

Downclock you Ant and restart your miner after shutting off for 10 minutes.
I mean do a power cycle. Then check whether the fan speeds now.
Now set your Ant S1 at stock clock and check fan speed after a restart.
If fan responds properly, clock to previous frequency and check the fans now.

Hello tell me the reason for my fan speed does not reset.  Thats when cold then immediately grows And does not reset when the temperature is 35 or 45 shows in 3720 within 3480  Thank you  if daste answer.

possibly, Bitmain tend to under spec those parts to save money. I considered sourcing some higher rated ones to overclock the s1 further, it's getting to the limit of my electronics knowledge though.
Put it this way, it couldn't hurt them lol

Any thought if that would help the DC-DC issue the early S3's have? cool em down and maybe you can pull a bit more juice from them?

it should help with keeping them cooler and running with less errors. go ahead and do it. I've got them on all of mine and it runs 406mhz all day long.

I have some small heatsinks that would fit the DCDC, do you think it would make a small difference in efficiency and DCDC stability?

What would be the most optimal settings for the S2 with a 1200W Psu and excellent ambient cooling?

~ Luc

It is a special little unit that's for sure. In return I've looked after it with nice big second fan and heatsinks all round.

That's great. You got a special S1.
My S1 will give 0.7% HWE much before that.
At stock clock itself my temperatures are at 40-45.

406mhz at 41 degrees. Hw 0.7% for a few days now

As per datasheet 400M is very much possible. But the issue is with HWE%, it will be huge.
Also the huge power consumption will not make it run profitably.
Further, the DC-DC voltage converters will not be able to handle that much and will overheat and fail.
No where heard anyone did it successfully for a prolonged period. If you are trying it don't forget to update the result.

I had some trouble with an S2 recently. Fixed it with an off the shelf Beaglebone Black.
