I've been playing with it as you described for more than 2 weeks now. Sad

I started with the same angle the others are in (17-18 min and 25 min). Then I've found this post (see below). The picture shows the factory Vcore. The NewPac is the same in this regard as the F, I suppose, therfore I was playing in this area to hit the sweet spot without success until now. I have a feeling as the miner would need a memory reset or so and then the problem would be solved.

I can't load the image right now, but please try dialing all the way back from what you set it to (apparently around 20-25 min) back to like 5 min and try to go from there.
These miners have no memory, so there's nothing to reset. They are extremely simple devices, consisting of essentially:

Crystal

ASIC
FTDI chip
Counter chip
Buck converter circuit (some passive components and a buck controller IC)

So nothing that really has a 'state' except of the set screw that is taken as an input from the buck controller IC and regulates the step-down buck converter circuit accordingly.

I've tought about the heat too, but if it was an issue why are the others performing well?! ...even at 500 MHz? I'm afraid if I set a higher MHz at this stick and turns out to be the heat the real problem, I'm melting down the whole stick in a blink of an eye...

Higher MHz doesn't really make it draw more power; your vcore screw is what really mostly makes the difference. Please try dialing all the way back and retry from there.

Anyway, I won't give up. I'm still trying to find the right position, but it's getting to be really annoying to waste so much time on this.

I thought so too; had a very bitchy stick (it needed just the right start frequency and vcore), but then I remembered the first page of this thread:

It is also made for overclocking. Hot-rod overclocking.

It's supposed to be like this.. Wink

You're right... Cheesy

I try other, maybe lower start frequencies and the dialing up method as well. Go-go-go!!! Cool
