On another note, I sent one of my Acorns to be RMA'ed, so I'm down to just one 215+. I asked them for some VRM heatsinks too.
I discovered something really interesting with running one Acorn.
There is definitely some inadvertent GPU boosting happening when I'm running one 215+ mining, but not boost to GPU mining, but boost to GPU gaming performance.
I recently got around to running 3DMark tests on my Threadripper/CrossFire VEGA workstation and I am shocked to discover my scores are higher when I leave the AcornMiner running mining Tribus. No BS.
:proof:
Here is my Fire Strike score on my Workstation with the 1 Acorn on M.2 not mining.
