Hi all,
I am new to mining coins and just bought my very first red biftury usb asic.
I am interesting in OC my asic,but have no experience in it.
If anyone out here could help me step by step how to do it would be awesome.

Seeing as this comes up as No1 on google, but there is no answer,  I will add one  Smiley  - I am nice like that.


The red and blue bitfurys are easily overclocked by changing the resistance of R15 on the board.

A tried and trusted method to alter the resistance of R15 is by bridging the 2 pads of the resistor with a pencil line. No need to unsolder anything.

Draw a line in pencil over the top of R15 to bridge the 2 silver pads. The theory of this is that the graphite in the pencil mark has a resistance and you are effectively adding a resistance in parallel to R15 using the graphite.

The trick is not to go overboard, try one pencil line, then two. If you over do it and the thing is not stable or fails to boot, use a pencil eraser to remove the pencil line and start again by adding one thin line at a time.

OK, so overclocking will generate more heat, so add a fan or place the fury near a fan to aid cooling.
