Is anyone else's Terraminer throttling often? At first I figured it was caused by the high temps but now that I have the temps down it still throttles.

What temp does it reach before it throttles? what's the performance before/after?

I'm running on ICdiamond for about 2 weeks and I haven't had any throttling so far.

Previously the MX4 was good for 3 weeks, so I'm not sure how long the ICdiamond lasts. (the MX4 degraded into "dust" after 3 weeks).

When it disables/throttles the core(s) the temps go down obviously so it might not be evident that it's caused by the degradation of the thermal compound.

If a pump fails then it also disables the cores ( I had one pump fail on me - it produces weird noise before failure)

Having said that, I'm interested in buying problematic Terraminers. Pm me with the stats if any of you consider selling them.

 I am down to thinking that I may have a bad pump. Anyone know how to test that? Obviously something is telling the board not to start.
