Newbie questions...
I have 3 Apollo BTC miners up and running with no issues. Full node downloaded in 1.5 days. :-)
I have a controller and 2 standard units. I am running in turbo mode. Hash rate is ~3.1 I see all 3 in the dashboard.
Is there any way to increase the power on one of the standard units that is running with a 500W power supply? The other 2 are running the 200W PS. If they all need to be managed by the same rules, I will buy 2 more 500W power supplies if that allows me to increase the hash rate . If I do that, how do push all three to the 3.8TH/s limit? Do I need to adjust the power in "Custom Miner Mode"? If so, how high should I go?
Thank you in advance for your help/advice.
"*Our FutureBit 200W power supply is limited to ~ 3 TH/s, 3.8 TH/s is only achievable with an external > 300 watt power supply"
+1 for this question. What are recommended settings for 3.8 TH/s?
For now, I have been going as far as 85/55, resulting in approx. 3,4TH/s@0,07W/GHs (with a 0,9% error rate). Guess you have to push the freq up to 60 to get the full 3,8TH/s (provided you have a capable PSU ofc!) Each hardware has its own sweet spot, so you have to try out what works best for you.
I now running power 95% Freq 53 My total hash rate is 10.43 Th/s with 3 miners, I'll push the freq to 60 the next time I need to reboot.
