Quick question, currently running the older version of kano's cgminer, launching with a batch file with these settings --gekko-compacf-freq 575 --gekko-mine2 --gekko-start-freq 300 --gekko-tune-up 60 --suggest-diff 442 --gekko-compacf-detect --
I'm running the Compaq F's right now, just curious if I pick up some of these new A1's and run the new cgminer, can I just add to this same batch file any necessary settings? If so, what would be the mandatory settings?

Any suggestions for correcting a lazy stick?
I'm running two Gekko hubs, three sticks per hub, powered by a 1200W HP power supply with six pin connections, so power shouldn't be an issue. Cooling provided by two 120mm fans on each, one blowing horizontally onto the sinks, one blowing down from above onto the sinks.
All my stick are running steady at 510mHz - 520mHz, but I've got one stick that chronically lags behind. I've tried bumping up the vcore to as much as 1.58v, but I've not been able to normalize it to the others. All the other sticks are sitting around 1.5v on the vcore.
Any suggestions?

Quick question, I'm running two Gekko hubs, three compaq f on each hub, however it is only recognizing four of the six as USB devices. Any suggestions on how to correct this?
Is your PSU enough for the six Compac F ?
Yeah, I was being a idiot. Didn't realize Port D on the Gekko hubs doesn't have USB connectivity.
Question: I'm sure this is as basic as it sounds, but in general how many sticks can I power off a standard home outlet? 20A Circuit. I'm assuming if each is drawing around 3A then maybe I can run 6? Just didn't know if its truly as simple as that.
^^ The real question is how much current can the hub provide per-port. At those speeds each one is pulling at least 2.8a and possibly just over 3.1a.
If the Eyeboot holds to usb charging specs each port will be limited to a maximum of 3.1a. Yes the entire Eyeboot hub can provide 10a but that has to be distributed across many ports.
The original Gekkp hub had 3-banks of 2 ports with each bank fed by a 6a regulator - if just powering 1 in each bank it will happily supply that full 6a to it. The connectors may melt but that's what you get. The new hubs use a single 25a regulator feeding each port through 3.5a resetable PTC e-fuses. Yes that means each port is limited to under 3.5a but that more than enough for reasonable OC with minimal danger of melting the port connectors

Thanks for this. Made me realize, I was running both sticks side by side on the Eyeboot. One was consistently underpowered and cutting out, staggering them in the hub solved this issue. Now running both at 550Mhz flawlessly. I'm thinking three at this speed might be possible.

A quick question on power supplies and hubs:
I'm currently running two Compac F on a Eyeboot 10-port 120-watt, 10A hub. Both sticks are overclocked at 540mHz, Vcore running around 1.51v. Hashrates average 350Ghs on one stick and 315Ghs. Trying to push much past this and I seem to run into power issues. I'm trying to see if anyone else has run the Eyeboot hub, and if I will be able to push any more sticks through this hub? Maybe dialing back the overclocking?
With that being said I see the Gekko hub being advertised as such to be able to run a full set of sticks even when overclocked. Is this true? Is there a setup out there currently that can currently run 8 sticks on a single hub?

Voltage range is approximately 1.4 to 1.6; stock setting is 1.48
As a side note to this, does when always need to increase voltage when increasing clock speed?

Hi all,
Just curious if anyone knows the following:
1. Does adjusting the vcore pot on the bottom right of the device directly impact the voltage when measured at the chip itself (behind the heatsink)?
2. When measuring voltage, what is the max that can be achieved? I've measured at the back of the chip (behind the heatsink) and I'm running around 1.5v on average.
Thanks for any insight!
