Sexy... just plain sexy!
think I figured out reason why this one chili runs so hot... I didnt realize in bfgminer you can look at more device specific measurements but doing "manage devices" and just scrolling through them.
Shows more voltages & another temp measurement.
So, the chili that runs hot, runs at a higher voltage than any of my other chilis... must just be very low quality chips on that one =P

Hashrate in cgminer is well maintained for a long time, but hashrate in pool (btcguild) is keep decreasing and stabilized after <10% drop. Is this related to ZNX command? I saw that this happens also in jalapeno. Chili might be same. How can I overcome the problem? https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.2336171
My BTCGuild stats show my Chili hashrate 8 - 10% below what CGminer reports as well.
Does anyone see this with any of the other pools?
I recommend that you click the reset button in the btcguild dashboard. Reset recovers hashrate and shares in my case, which is very weird.

What I loved about these boards from MrTeal/ChipGeek is that they gave me back the fun of building things. like in the GPU days.
A ready to go ASIC box is fine, but is also boring.
A double Chili please...
HI, I have a chili where the main power light comes on but no LED's start. It was hashing away at half speed for a while but now nothing. Ideas?? Thanks!
Did the LEDs used to light up? Can you give a bit more information about the application, like what cooling you were using? Normally if it's hashing slower than 30 it's a sign of poor contact with the heatsink; that shouldn't normally cause a hard fault as it will throttle if it gets too hot.Did you buy the unit used?
Hi MrTeal, I am using a Noctua NH-U9B heatsink/fan with arctic silver paste. When it was working yesterday at 1/2 speed it averaged 48c ... I did buy (2) of these on ebay a few weeks ago. One runs fine around 33ghz at 65c, the other has always ran slow and since the beginning it has always taken a while for the LED's to start up. Instead of the LED's flashing super fast when boot up like the good one this one the LED's stay on about 2 or 3 seconds throughout the whole bootup routine like when 5,6,7,8 first come on they stay on for 3 seconds, then at the end of the check when 7&8 are doing there thing they do the 2 second per light as well. Thanks for your input!
If I could get this to turn on 1 more time at 15ghz I would be happy and never unplug again.
For those that might have cooling issues another data point: I have 1 unit that runs at 65 and then it reports 120 and the miner software turns it off... and then right back on and its back at 65. This causes the unit to slowly step back up to its running speed of 36ish GH/S. I'll tinker around with the heatsinks and see if that fixes it up. I didn't think the temp could fluctuate that much and that quickly.
Yeah, one of my chili's is stlil acting up. I reseated the HSF and the original mount looked fine, the AS5 was evenly spread out on all chips. Its weird tho, when all of the chilis are warmer, this one runs cooler. Like this one will register between 62-63 when others are around 55-65C ... but when others drop to 45-55C (due to decreasing ambient temps) this one shoots up to 68-70C and its hashrate slightly increases.... I wonder if its being clocked up but still hitting some type of limit and being throttled .. vs when its running cooler - it runs even slower. Or Im wondering if one of the temp sensors is just fucked. I dont know.
I have one running at 55C and running at 39+ GH .. =)...that one is extremely happy...most of the others average between 36-38GH and this hot one sits right around 35-36GH
Well I have the same airflow setup running across all the VRM's on my chili's and they VRM's are pretty damn cool to the touch compared to no airflow ... the VRMs feel the same between all my chili's ... including the hot one.

Maybe we need a Chili Hospital Thread

Quick update on the progress of batch 3. Everything is at the assembly house, so it is officially underway now.
Thanks to everyone who has participated, and I'll be posting up information on buying completed miners here right away.
Thanks

@ MrTeal,
Is it too late to get into the assembly line for customer provided chips? I have some coming this week and would love to have a few more chilis.

Any news about batch 3? Are you still planning on auctioning off some populated boards?
Yeah, I need to get on that. I should be posting it up tonight or tomorrow.I haven't missed anything have I? Are there going to be some populated boards for sale through this thread?
