You may.

I have 2 brand new units. I have no indications that the blades are defective in any way.  

The unit hashes for a few hours and then slows down. My ASIC indicators all show 0. (this is good) These new S3+'s are right next to S3's that have never given me a bit of trouble and I am asking for the S3 revision controller so i can have some stability.

Should I have asked for four new blades?   why?  Based on what?  because they slow down after a few hours?  My S3's NEVER slow down.  EVER.

I am not a testing and repair facility.  Should I start disassembling my S3's to use as testing components?

I use EVGA 1300 Gold and EVGA 850 Gold.  My existing S3's work like a champ and I love them.  

I am open to ideas but this is really getting old.

okay, so I should take my s3 controller and install on my s3+ to test?  I think they should send me old revision controllers for me to test with.. Why is it all on me?

thanks!

Turns out I just needed the correct version of firmware.  23dec14
