It didnt take Elenelen long to ramp right up to 500mhz with simple vrm heatsinks. Imagine what we could do if that cooling tower, thermal blanket, and that stupid bar were all gone, and replaced with an H2O cooler. the vrms, and any heatsink you put on them would then have excellent exposure to airflow.
If someone can mount an Corsair H80 on the chip and mount a push/pull fan configuration right on the side of the box you can literally bring the size of that box down to a small shoe box size. I've been using that Corsair H80 on my overclocked Intel 3930K processor for a while now and works great. It is a completely sealed system and keeps the processor cool at all times. If there is a will, there would be a way. The ASIC chips are larger in size, so making it work would take a good DIY'er.

being the actual chip package is the same size, I'd imagine so....
there were others... can't seem to find
* The Jupiters came just as "maxed out". A true "hardware junkie" can get pretty far. If you increase your hashrate by say 20%,
for say... arguably 500 dollars(less than one twentieth of the neppy price)... you just increased your ROI by a substantial amount.
"Trance2" got 1000mhz, 758 Gh/s @ 50C out of October jupiters with watercooling and a bin file alteration. If you got that from Neppie....
in comparison, most unaltered Oct Jupiters get about 550-560Gh/s...
He increased his ROI by arouund 50% with about 500 bucks.
Sound better now?
Get crackin' Padrino....
I made a small bin file for those not sure how to apply oc setting via cgminer.sh.
The bin file is loaded via the upgrade tab in miner administration just like you would upload a firmware. On reboot the modification will be gone again and bin file will have to be uploaded again in order to apply oc setting.
The bin file contains a folder with two files:
runme.sh
cgminer.sh
runme.sh will copy a modified version of cgminer.sh set for 900MHz to /etc/init.d/ overwriting the original cgminer.sh
After uploading the bin file, you need to go to the mining tab in administration and pick Restart Miner in order to apply setting.
Content of bin file can be examined and modified using e.g. 7zip
Other oc settings are listed in the modified cgminer.sh like:
# are disabled settings
Active setting is 231 which corresponds to 900MHz:
Lowest disabled setting is 201 which corresponds to 825MHz:
Highest disabled setting is 251 which corresponds to 950MHz:
If you wish to go beyond these ranges, then look up the list of settings posted in various threads here.
Applying any other setting than the active 231 setting require that you modify the cgminer.sh in the bin file.
I take no responsibility for any damage due to oc if such should occur. The 231 setting is quite safe if you have proper cooling, but you will probably need to adjust die voltages to match the higher asic frequency.
Any changes made to voltages in Advanced Settings, will reset frequency to stock default setting and you will have to pick Restart Miner in the Mining tab in order to reapply oc settings.

no actually if you got two advanced settings you can go past 1000mhz i am currently @ 940ghs with 1050 power supply.
hehe, 950 gh/s on a jupiter.Following old tricks... same thing could be done with Neppie
