anyone has a meter for his Jupiter, only ?
seems like higher electricity consumption, but I can't tell exactly as I have several other devices connected to my one

Careful with this one, guys.. monitor your temps. My machines are running hot. Each chip about 2-4 degrees higher on 0.9.8.


As long as it does not affect HW errors %, 2-4 degrees higher doesnt matter, right?
Probably correct. It may affect the lifespan of the machine, but since all the money is to be made within the next couple months, I don't suppose that really matters.. I rolled back as a precaution until further reports come in. Then I'll most likely re-upgrade.

those chips should be capable of 100°C+. so absolutely no reason to ring the alarm bell here.

Put .98 on one of my 3 modual jupiters... seems to like it. Little better WU/min at higher temps.

As long as you are under 100C I would not worry too much about an increase.

Maybe you should be concerned if it hits 80-90C -- maybe not.

In any case below 70C -- quit worrying take the extra hashes.

I will upgrade after I finish a short outing -- will give additional info tonight.

Some people have been doing testing around these chips and they actually have an "optimal" temperature that they hash at. It's not always just "the coolest" = "highest hashrate."

Some people were even creating shrouds around the units to get them to a higher temp.

As long as the HW error % doesn't go up like the guy said, the higher temps are not a reason to "roll back" to .97

.97 Firmware
ASIC slot #1 39.5 ℃
ASIC slot #2 27.0 ℃
ASIC slot #3 43.0 ℃
ASIC slot #4 37.0 ℃

.98 firmware
ASIC slot #1   41.0 ℃
ASIC slot #2   28.0 ℃
ASIC slot #3   45.5 ℃
ASIC slot #4   38.5 ℃

I'll agree with the comments above, this firmware does run hotter than .97.  With the increased hashrate I suppose that is to be expected.  

it's harmless imho, this is my jup with 0.95:

 KNC 0: 51.0C | 135.6/132.1/126.1Gh/s | A:11149 R:160+0(.46%) HW:160159/4.8%
 KNC 1: 50.5C | 134.8/130.0/126.4Gh/s | A:11284 R:126+0(.46%) HW: 82402/2.5%
 KNC 2: 47.5C | 135.3/132.0/128.0Gh/s | A:11467 R:109+0(.24%) HW: 91937/2.8%
 KNC 3: 40.0C | 142.7/139.5/137.0Gh/s | A:12301 R:132+0(.28%) HW: 33157/.96


let say the I would have used "warmer" rather than "hotter" Tongue

is bertmod & enablecores the same thing?



No - Bertmod is used in order to display more details in summary form including disabled cores and hardware error %'s.  KNC seem to have approved it for use, as it is not permanent.

Rolling back to 0.97 for now.

absolute values? before and after?

any reports on .98 firmwares? Grin

So far, my hashrate in CG miner has gone from 540 gh/s to 550

 cgminer version 3.6.6 - Started: [2013-10-29 14:29:59]
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 (5s):627.6G (avg):566.4Gh/s | A:27648  R:512  HW:594  WU:7846.7/m
 ST: 2  SS: 0  NB: 1  LW: 29933  GF: 0  RF: 0

Take this all with a grain of salt, it has been hashing for about 20 seconds - havent applied bertmod quite yet.

what was your hash rate with your prev fw?

i have 2 separate .bin files but neither 'seem' to change anything.
