Re: ANTMINER S5: 1155GH(+OverClock Potential), In Stock $0.319/GH & 0.51W/GH
new miner, my chains are 11 degrees apart in temp.
any solution to this? my other s5 is only 3-4 degrees apart.

think this might be my power supply cutting power. the other one just did the same thing after I moved cables around. gonna lower the frequency settings see if it helps stabilize it. my outlet is telling me i was using 1207 watts with both at the stock 350m. good thing i have a 1600w psu on the way
What brand/model is your new PSU? It's not so much the watts in some cases but the quality of the PSU.
Sadly cheap PSU's can cause problems.
It is an evga supernova 1300. I have an evga supernova 1600w titanium rated psu arriving today. i have the miner that drops in hashrate underclocked to 325 and it appears to stabilize. at 350m one of the blades intermitently lowers in temp to about 30c and my total Hashrate goes down to 500-700gh. im not getting any errors though. so my thought is that it may not be getting enough power, whoch would explain the temp/hashrate decrease. Im not an electrical engineer so im just guessing...I put in a ticket with bitmain and they want me to take the damn thing apart. and redo the thermal paste.
It's not a bad idea if you know which blade is hotter I woould start with that one. You might just fix it in only one breakdown.
Best news is you have their consent to do it so does not void your warranty. And I'm sure they will help you out. If this does not fix it they will give another good suggestion.
Sucks to go through troubleshooting, but they are a good team to work with. If in China or US you can easily call them and talk to them about the problem.
