My latest setup after I found a 2nd hand heatsink. Managed to bring it down by 2°C and make it lesser HW error.
Using the cable tie trend, managed to put them together

Flash those suckers to 8GH/s and then tell us what the temps are!  Cool Cool
Still trying to get that Atmel AVR Dragon. It's not quite accessible here in singapore...

looks like a £1 notebook cooler underneath those bad boys Wink i assume its blowing down?
Good eyesight Grin but it's suppose to blow upwards instead. Didn't switch that on because RPi doesn't have enough power once I plug that in...

Looking for these? A vertical wind heat sink

Cheesy

For those who asked whether the fans within Jalapenos are blowing upwards or downwards, it's upwards in the original package. I have removed the casting and flipped the fan to blow downwards.

I agreed that BFL might have tested both way and decided that blowing upwards is the best way but this is with the constraints of the casting. So without the casting, i think it's better to blow downwards.

...

wont it end up fighting the fans blowing air down? or are you trying to get it to blow the cooler air from underneath upwards?

i have one blowing over my USB ASICs atm Wink

It wasn't intended to be turned on. I wanna rise it slightly up due to the fan within the Jala will be blowing directly on the base of my TV console. It was meant for better air circulation.
Next project is to buy a wine chiller and put them inside after i ROI from these chillies and flash to 8GH/s Cheesy

Nice, I'm thinking to get some of those USB ASIC also. It's much MUCH quieter than these noisy chillies.

Next step is to flash those jallies to 7GH/s
Are there any tutorials on doing that?
I've been searching but haven't found any...

also https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=236875.msg2504867#msg2504867

Would be a good idea to read these threads, there is useful info in there.
Yea, follow these guides will do the job. Thanks philips for pointing them out.
My suggestion is to read them, read them again, then read them again. any missing/wrong step, will make ur jallies to useless paperweight

Just to share what I have done to my 5GH Jallies.
1) remove the side casing (not the top one with the logo) - because air are trapped inside
2) flip the fan to blow on the heatsink instead - because IMO, it's better to blow on the heat sink rather away
3) invert the whole jallies e.g. putting it upside down - because the bottom is also heated up when it's running, so I kept the bottom surface on top for better cooling

Next step is to flash those jallies to 7GH/s

Hi all,
I just received my jalapenos and they came with 1.2.9. I tried reflashing the firmware but it appears that it is not working. Any idea what I have missed? I merely change the source from singles setting to jalapeno by commenting line 26 and uncommenting line 24...

I'm sorry that I'm not updating GB table but it is really crazy now...

Batch 1 users that still didn't pay for boards please have in mind that you need to do that till end of the week.

If anyone from batch 2 or 3 would like to help me get batter prices on parts can also pay now and will order parts to be ready for your chips...
I noticed there's a drop in bitpay rates since I paid. Do let me know the difference so I can make up with the difference. Thanks!

Also, I'm not buying any other chips anymore.

So, no one has yet to compile an exact list of the parts one would need to accomplish this mod.

Would it be possible for those that have accomplished this to post the parts, part numbers, and vendor they procured it from.  Please provide proper links.  I would like to start ordering these for my eruptors.  I also hope to have my Heatsink mod uploaded this evening.

I know that I am a NEWB but I have been through these 27 pages and all anyone ever dies is state 16mhz with no specifics other than physical size 3.3volts.  I would like to understand more  is a higher frequency stability better will that matter?  Should I go for a higher Operating temp? should I care about Load Capacitance?

If nothing matters other than 16mhz 5X3.2 SMD and 3.3 v I will order the one that can get here fastest.

As for the other part the resistor.  will any generic do or do I need parts that have better specs.

Please accept my thanks in advance of answering as well as calm resolve in advance of being flamed for stupidity Smiley
Seen this?

Overall, now, it is not worthwhile to overclock them. It's cheaper to get one additional BE instead

Maybe we can start this as another topic for modding the USB hub. lol
Meanwhile back to topic, can I get 2 hubs without adapters? The price is the same?

Yea, U have to replace the oscillators and also the resistors.

Not really favour over overclocking BE as the power usage will increase by 150% to 200% and additional cooling is needed...

Re: can I use Ebay USB hub w/ 40a power supply?
by

on 09/10/2013, 01:45:43 UTC
This really depends on how much Amp the hub is drawing. My hubs runs 8 BEs, (4OC + 4 stock) perfectly for days. It's a PSU of 5V 60A. It appears that it can't draw more than 10Amp for that hub and if you do, it will melt the power plug...

32 BEs loaded in 4 10 USB port hubs. 14 stock BE, the rest are overclocked to 448MH/s

As promised.



3 hubs on top of my power supply and one at the bottom.
The power supply is 5V 60A supply. I tested a full load of 10 OCBE @ 448MH/s in one hub. The hub power connector melted in 5 mins... Lucky I managed to save the hub but not the DIY connector...
