Hi,

Is anyone able to help me out?  I purchased 2 of the S3's and bought the Enermax Triatholor ECO 550W 80 Plus Bronze PSU (one for each S3).  It says the DC output is +12V 42A 504W.  I hooked one PCI-e connector to one side of the machine and hooked up another PCI-e to the opposite side using only two of the four connections.  The machine never reaches over 330 - 340 GH/s.  Do I need to overclock this machine to reach the 478 GH/s, or do I need to buy a bigger PSU, or both?  If I need a bigger PSU which is recommended?



please post your miner status page



Here are my miner stats
Looks like you have a S1 or S2 board with 32 ASICS - or the wrong firmware?
Probably time to find that Philips head screwdriver and take the cover off for some visual inspection.
You could download the latest firmware from Bitmain and reload the firmware.

Good luck
