of 4 units:

a) 231.25MHZ = 452Gh
b) 218.75MHz = 429GH (one chip is shown as -  though, so presumably im losing about 12GH)
c) 250MHz = 502.5GH
d) 218.75MHz = 428GH (one chip is shown as -  though, so presumably im losing about 12GH)

ive tried rebooting the two systems with the dudding chips but to no avail. has anyone had and resolved this issue? (with the S1 a reboot always seemed to solve it)

overall im not terribly impressed with the quality of the components bitmain used. hopefully its a batch-specific problem though and wont occur again.

I had a unit that would X chips at any clock about 218.75. Had to take it apart and reapply thermal paste. No X chips after that. Been running for 2 days on stock clock with no issues.

When you guys are re-applying thermal paste after cleaning with alchohol are you applying a thin layer with a piece of plastic/razor so the entire chip is covered or do you just put like a 1/2 pea sized drop in the center of each chip and let the heatsink smoosh it around?
