I wonder if maybe it could just be defective and since you overvolt it, you would assume that was the reason. But we will never know... lol
Of course We both know I could have simply lied about it.
I could have said I heard a popping sound and smelled magic smoke I do not know how or why it happened.
I used the ibm 2980 server psu and sent only 12.2 volts from the psu that read 12.0 volts at the gui.
It must be a defective cap. Send me a board.
While that would most likely have worked I don't roll like that. In the long run I rather know I did the right thing.
This should be noted by all that don't let the gui go over 12.2 volts
This avalon6 was one of the two I grabbed from kilo17 on Nov 23 or 24. It ran on the middled volt setting of the dual 2000/4000 psu more often then the high volt setting.
Ie
12.5/12.1 3650gh more often then not.
12.75/12.5 3950gh some of the time and this was when it popped.
I wish I had read the paperwork better as I thought that the 12.75/12.5 setting was good.
Funny thing YAN told me that the gear is like a Honda car so cruise it don't race it.
any one that knows me would laugh since I said this time and time again about the Sp-20 only I said it is like a kia forte!
