I'd guess it was frodocooper being overzealous again. That guy's been problematic since he started as a mod.

Additionally, weird your pod is dropping out. They're all tested for 12 chips and run at 550MHz at V5 or lower for 24 hours before getting sent out. Each one is tested in various ways both before and after that burn-in, meaning it gets plugged in and run for various durations at least four times.

If it refuses to operate right despite a good controller, good power and all that, talk to the seller about warranty replacement. The seller probably can give you startup and testing advice also.

Yea it runs great for 12 chips well it says (12+) for around 30 mins then it just starts dropping every few mins till it says 6 chips and 200 mhz then it goes to 0 chips.

I will talk with minefarmbuy (who I purchased it thru) I just wanted to hear from you first.

I have tried swapping the usb cords - I wish I had a second way to power it to see if its the power brick. I gotta look around I may have a pc psu somewhere that I can try. I dont want the issue to be the unit.

edit: hmm i wonder if the brick for my Apollo will work on the R606 - time to find out

2nd edit: the Apollo psu does work for the R606 - so its up and running at 550 mhz (setting 5) started at 11:19 lets see if it can make it past 30 mins.

3rd edit: lasted 55 mins before going to zero chips
