i had all cube with 16 awg cable

but one cube
is f.... cable hot

and i do not think that is safe Grin Grin Grin Grin Grin Grin Grin Grin Grin Grin Grin Grin Grin Grin Shocked Shocked Shocked Shocked Shocked Shocked

You can check each of the 6 PCIe wires for hot.
If you find one that is NOT hot when all others are it is the problem.
If you find one that is NOT hot when all others are it is the problem.
If you find one that is NOT hot when all others are it is the problem.

You need all 6 PCIe wires working for 'safe' operation.
They should all be same temperature.

Best to change the PCIe cable if you have ONE cool wire in a hot cable.
You could also inspect the cable and look for wires that are not pushed all the way into the plastic connector housing.
If it is a modular PSU look at PSU end also.
Be sure connectors are installed all the way.
PUSH on wires when connecting, PULL on plastic housing when disconnecting.

Most melted PCIe cables I have ever seen were caused by a failure in one of the 6 wires.
If you ever find only 2 melted it is because they did not survive doing work for bad wire.
They tried but failed.

You might just have a ASIC that uses more power.

i had try -0.0513
but one cable at asic cube
is hotter than stock version
why?

speed 3.56 th

If your speed is 3.56 just let it run!!!


or
Look on Advanced page for WHY.
If numbers for current(A or I) and power(Watt) go up,
adjust in other direction and retest.

You can also adjust and use temperature as decision variable.
(if that is what interests you)

All ASIC are different.
Some are power hungry.

You may also have PCIe cable that is different.
Did you try different PCIe cable?

More details please

I adjust voltage in BOTH directions and compare results.
I seek lowest current.
I don't care what the voltage is if the ASIC works.
Lowest current for me is lower voltage.
Lower current is often also lower temperature on ASIC and VRM.
Some die are different.

Yours ASICs could be different.

YMMV
Smiley

EDIT
lower voltage is more NEGATIVE number (notice the sign in front of the numbers)
Try -0.0439 and see if your ASIC is happy! Smiley

Well excuse me for not reading every post in this thread before I ask a question. Anybody with half a brain could figure out that if I had seen Tulip's comment I wouldn't have asked the question.

You don't need to read every post in the thread, but reading the most recent on a specific topic certainly help if you're going to have a discussion.

You Neptune owners are a touchy bad tempered lot. Can't imagine why. Better luck next time fellas ~L)L~
I never ordered one of these piles of junk.  My only pre-order ever was for an Avalon at the very beginning of this whole ASIC game.

So, in conclusion, if it is a LM75 then yes it is measuring the board temperature in its locale, not the on die ASIC temperature via a temperature diode on the ASIC.

Correct.

It amazes me to see some of you guys still have faith in KfC.

It's over 3 weeks since they tried to sweep under the carpet they ran out of chips. Plenty Batch 1 customers are still waiting. Not a single update for customers to let them know anything about this situation in over three weeks.

They fed everyone lies claiming they would continue shipping and the fact they had no chips was not a problem  Grin

Anyone waiting for Batch 2 who thinks they will get a bonus for the wait really needs to think again Cheesy You don't know how kfc operate if you think that.

It also seems they are taking 2+ weeks to RMA anything. No doubt, taking their time and looking for ways to blame the customer and not their hardware.

If they were some crappy ebay seller selling hairbrushes with led lights in the handle or some other cheap mass produced crap, it's the kind of customer service you'd expect.

But it's an appalling way to treat customers who paid $10,000 each (or more) for knc's hardware.

At the rate that Knc is going not shipping the batch 2 Neptune's yet it looks like they will owe me 3 or 4 Neptune's! Smiley

This is shocking!  Do they think that because they shipped at least one Neptune by Q1/Q2 that they have met their timeline obligation?  That is totally absurd.  'Ontime and overspec' is their claim with this performance?  What if they take another 12 months to deliver the remaining Neptunes?  They still claim to meet their timeline?  I've got a feeling customers aren't going to stand by forever.  Probably time for serious action.

Nah, I suspect they will have to either provide 6 or 12 Neptune's to batch 2 and something similar to Batch 3 (1&2) owners.

Dream become broken often

wow tolip you really think outta the box when it comes to designing wc'in don't ya? Do you often have nightmares of leaks? or what it would look like if your whole setup failed all at once? boy i'm pretty sure there would be fireworks everywhere Smiley not hoping that happens to ya Wink and i'm sure your extra extra careful...wc'in to expensive for me to play with...but it sounds like your one busy busy man tinkering around with all those jups n neps...i bet i'd be in nerd heaven if i had your workshop area to play with...probably wouldn't know what to do with myself hehe

My 'workshop' is just a wire rack in my kitchen.
I live in a small 2 room shoe.

My main design goal for first stage with the Nep cooling was remote heat exchange.
Another main factor was low downtime.
I built the loop and modded a cube at a time while the other 4 hashed away.

It is very much a temporary prototyping environment.
The Hoopiter had a similar long transition into a neat case.
If they runnin no hurry. Smiley

No nightmares. the Nep system is just over 3L of H2O.

YMMV
Smiley

oh for some reason i just pictured a big room with wc'in tubes all over the place...my bad Smiley

Thanks tolip.

And maybe you could give your opinion on the statement "Core temperature sensing is performed by circuits on the die"

The LM75 measures it own case temperature.
There _IS_ a die in there though.

The original statement may have originated by someone who was wordlexic.
Die(s)/PCB/cube whatever.

I don't rely on that temp for much of anything.
I ALWAYS use the hottest temp I can find for cooling decisions.

As I type...
67C on bottom of PCB directly below ASIC
61C reported by LM75

I IR gunned the PCB temp.
I could probbably find hotter but bottom of PCB's is inside my pentagon with trapped V8 bottle.
It's tight in there and the bottle is not a cooperative captive.
