340GH on my Iceriver KS0 Pro Kaspa ASIC! (Heavily Modified Vs. Mostly Stock part 1)

[@GreaterGoodMining]

I was pumped to get 340 Gh/s out of my GREEN MACHINE KS0 Pro! Have you tried these mods yet???

[@selcukkarakaya9365]

seems to be a good job bro! Thanks alot for the kind efforts What s the best settings for a cool mining KS0Pro at 340gh?!?

[@GreaterGoodMining]

@@selcukkarakaya9365 Thank you! Toward the end of my video I show all my settings 390 clock offset and 46 voltage offset but you must adjust your clocks on your own! Your KS0 Pro might overclock differently than mine!

[@moldomosbah7081]

just to confirm did you upgrade u PSU ?

[@selcukkarakaya9365]

@@moldomosbah7081 Yes i do use 240watts Fujitsu Psu for my all ks0pros.

[@selcukkarakaya9365]

@@GreaterGoodMining Okay got it. Thanks one more time bro. I do use 3000rpm fans to cool them down beside heat sinks and 1.5mm pads. But still not operating under 60 degrees😞

[@tylerp7336]

Awesomeness on the high hash rate. Well done GGM. Nice to see you showing us the interface side of things also. I learned a lot. Thanks for the vid BP!

[@GreaterGoodMining]

Thanks for watching! Hope it helped :]

[@TaevasK]

I really like how you figured out how to mount those internal fans externally and also keep the protective grill! I'm gonna do the same for mine. I've got one KS0 Pro up to 320 Gh/s, but I'm not even pushing it. I use a variable power supply and lower the voltage from 19 to 16 to get cooler temps, but that increases the input current. Those barrel connectors are only good up to 10 Amps, so I keep them at 9 amps max. I think I'm going to mod the power connector so I don't have to worry about the power plug getting too hot. I'll remove the power connector and solder the power cable right to the circuit board. Love your content.

[@GreaterGoodMining]

Thank you I appreciate that! Yeah those barrel plugs get really hot. Originally I was going to push air in from the ethernet side to hit the powerstages and copper heat sinks first. But I decided to blow air in from the barrel plug side to cool that down as much as possible. It worked out good so far!

[@pdotdollarsign]

hell yea! Good man! gotta move them lil stock fans to the outside and increase that air flow

[@GreaterGoodMining]

100% it's a free mod! I'm surprised that most people aren't doing this :-0

[@joseongjr9551]

I just try couple of minutes just to see the actual OC of FPB Farmer but I need to buy all of heatsink, thermal pad, Fan Case and fan too so it's work on KSo Pro(Black Case)

[@GreaterGoodMining]

You can still overclock the KS0 Pro with minimal mods but you can't push it as hard

[@wolverine1981pl]

10:27 what setting did you used to achive that hashrate? whats the power consumption

[@GreaterGoodMining]

That's just a stock KS0 Pro at 90 watts

[@Pepaw-Bill]

Why did you go with Farmers OC vs Tswift’s OC’s. Does Farmers OC not charge a fee? Or is it that you can get more hash rate ? I do love Farmers gui layout and the temps charts, much better that the ice river.

[@GreaterGoodMining]

PBfarmer has a 1% fee but 50% of the fee goes to the Kaspa Dev team and eventually 100% of the fee will go back to the Kaspa Dev fee. I want to be able to adjust my own overclocks, and I love the detail and amount of data in PB farmers Web GUI

[@ryandugan]

The difference is equivalent to comparing a car with no controls and the throttle stuck to 100% open, vs one that actually has a gas pedal, dashboard, etc. The former may get you where you want to go, but it's an inefficient, uncomfortable ride, with questionable longevity.

[@fullyelectric]

GGM Brother that is awesomeness 👍 rock on brother!!

[@GreaterGoodMining]

Thanks brotha! It was fun to FAFO with the green KS0 Pro! Next I'll FAFO with a mostly Stock one and see how hard I can push the power stages with no heat sinks :]

@GreaterGoodMining i have a question. im looking for the files in the /var/update folder of a KS0.. (the OG). lets say someone deleted some files in there and the machine is not starting anymore.. thinking it might start to work again if i put them back. I can still reach the filesystem, but hard reset no worky anymore and no KS0 og in my neighbourhood i could get them from. And here is me hoping a random Kaspa yt-ber might be able to help with those. Im grasping at straws i know but iceriver isnt responding as i would have liked :p.

[@GreaterGoodMining]

I havnt messed with any of the original files but I know lots of people in my Discord mess around like that. PBfarmer might be able to help. Join the Kaspa Discord and ask in the mining hardware section. Guarantee someone will be able to help you in there

[@0x3Jimmy]

@GreaterGoodMining Has anyone tried removing the paint between the thermal paste and asic for a better heat transfer? Just wondering if the black or green paint won't allow a good transfer

[@GreaterGoodMining]

I was thinking the same thing and someone else asked me that recently too. I might try it in a future video and see what happens

[@andrewfurfaro5326]

any reason why after i did the firmware and it reboots it says "machine is offline"?

[@GreaterGoodMining]

Check to see if your IP Address switched. It happened to me after I uploaded the firmware too

[@andrewfurfaro5326]

@@GreaterGoodMining i put tswift back on. Too tired to mess around tonight. I'll try again tomorrow

[@WindowsWizardry]

Please do same overclock for ks1 we are interested to see the result coz we did used old overclock

[@GreaterGoodMining]

My OG KS1 is a weird 1st batch custom one-off that so far won't even let me upload stock firmware from Iceriver. It's a factory freak. And my other KS1's I combined into a KS2. The best thing to do is attempt to overclock yourself because your KS1 will be different from anyone elses in how much it can be pushed. It depends on a lot of factors like ambient temps, have you repasted, if you have a cooling shroud and upgraded fans etc. etc. Try the firmware and tweak and learn is the best way to go!

[@tombuseck]

I got 355gh/s using the tswift firmware 😎

[@GreaterGoodMining]

Nice! I might try to push this further and mess with things more. For now I'm happy :]

[@tombuseck]

@@GreaterGoodMining I’m also using two L3 antminer fans in a push pull config so my temps are around 24in 45out

[@GreaterGoodMining]

@@tombuseck that's sweet! I might do something similar since I have 2 shroud kits to mess with and plenty of powerful fans etc

[@mozzarella84]

What is the difference in dev fee for PB wnd Tswift

[@GreaterGoodMining]

PBfarmers is 1% but half of the fee goes to the Kaspa Dev team, and eventually all of it will go to the Kaspa Dev team. Tswifts is 0.5%

[@kasual7626]

Anyway to get the firmware with out over clocking but still giving me the extra graphs and dark mode?

[@GreaterGoodMining]

When you upload the firmware no overclocking is applied until you make the changes yourself. But you will be paying a 1% Dev fee to use it

[@Baerchenization]

I do not think this is a good idea. I have 12 OCed machines running for months, but the first one now started to stop hashing. Obviously it is getting slow-cooked... it still runs at stock now. But if you have experience with OCing, which I had done extensively with CPUs in the past, you will know that CPUs may age rather quickly. So you will be out of luck with your warranty if you cook that thing (actually you are already out of warranty once you start OCing), I would not push these so high. You might regret it in a few weeks.

[@GreaterGoodMining]

I appreciate your input and agree with you. When you overclock these, especially to this level, you are risking the machine getting toasted or at least causing more wear and tear etc. I am OK with pushing these hard for fun. I just like to see how much I can get out of them :]

[@Baerchenization]

@@GreaterGoodMining I would, but it already took ca 6 weeks for delivery and my retailer says if one breaks, I have to send it to the US myself, so I would not see it for a few months, in which case you may lose 20-30% or more of your annual yield - not so bad if you have 12 machines and one breaks, pretty bad if you only have one or two... also, I can see that maybe only 3 of my 12 machines could get that high, as most do not even reach 280. So people have to be OK to make the investment in the power and fans, shroud-printing, putting all the time in to it, but only have a 1 in 4 chance that it will actually work. So definitely not recommended for people with only 1 or few units.

[@Pagipopo47]

What OC stats do you recommend?

[@GreaterGoodMining]

@@Pagipopo47 I recommend tweaking your own KS0 Pro like I said in the video because your KS0 Pro could be very different from mine. I show my clocks and voltages towards the end, but those settings are very aggressive
