Re: GridSeed 5-chip USB miner voltage mod

If I perform the mod, then I want to go back to mining at 600-850mhz again for some reason, that still works? (but still using 2W more?)

Of course, the power consumption is directly related to core voltage, so frequency does not matter much in that regard.

If you want to hard mod the voltage to 1.25v, and use different miner software:




I just completed the mod on 1 of my gridseeds. It's hashing away at --freq=950. I'm using an overclocked enabled cpuminer on the modded one (Bottom left), while the others are on the regular gridseed enabled one. Does this look right?



The bottom left one is the modded one, while the others are hashing away at --freq=850 (I've been mining for about 5mins now). I keep getting those 0: <<< LTC552000003d93cfcc12345678. Is that ok? I've been using cpuminer for a month now and it seems fine. Just wanted to combine my question in 1 post Smiley
Excellent!
Looks good to me! Wink
Have you tried 1000+MHz yet?
Got any pics of your handy work?
Can you restart that one miner that's clocked at 950 and screen capture where it shows it is in fact clocked at 950MHz? This will lend credence to your claim that you are actually clocking at 950 with zero red nonce's.
Much appreciated!
