What's the most common issue you encounter when using Antminer? Huh
One of the most common failures of ASICs is overheating of chips and their failure. Usually, the further the chip is from the front fan for blowing, the higher the temperature. And ASIC power supplies do not like voltage drops in the power grid.
Temperatures can be a real headache. They vary widely from place to place, sometimes hot, sometimes cold. But is too cold always better than too hot? High temperatures can be solved with a heat sink, but what about low temperatures?
Do you cool the equipment with nitrogen? Smiley
On the working equipment you will not have negative temperatures with air cooling. If the chip is dead, it will no longer heat up.
No, we don't use nitrogen to cool the system. We use water cooling plates. Not sure which works better.
