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
