THE ICERIVER KS0 ULTRA.

My buddy just got his 8 ks0 ultras. I suggest adding a floor fan or something to move a little air over them. the things COOK, like will injure you type of hot.

[@engminer-kas]

I think it is great. Picked one up in the June batch and another for the July (with the lower price and coupon code). I started getting into Kaspa back in April and scrambled to grab a used overclocked KS0 in late April for $400 and was essentially able to jump models and come in at $300-400 a unit. It's rough that the network hashrate keeps going up and will likely double / triple in the next couple months but I guess thats all part of the game. The one thing that I have been very happy about is how amazing this network is. Really hoping that Kaspa gets the adoption it deserves and the world gets to take advantage of it. Thanks for creating all the great content! I never would have gotten into mining without resources like you on you tube.

[@johngermain5146]

USA - The KS0 Ultra ... Good purchase, can peak hash above 400 Gh/s but typically runs at 375 Gh/s @ 107 watts. The Software cannot find the network parameters unless you use a STATIC ip address. Just one 120mm fan is enough to bring temperatures down to a normal range, cool enough to handle... otherwise, love it at the reduced price. Amazon carries it as well.

[@Asmgamer]

Bought two. Hoping i won't regret it. Seen a lot of negative feedback on the ultras so far like low hashrate, connectivity issues and the like. Mine are only running at 320 GH/s after 12 hours. My OG V1 KS0s are all at 200 GH with pbfarmers and no issue

[@RainBitcoins]

If your at 320gh/s is because your running them too cool. Let them get warmer/hotter and the hash rate goes up....Its crazy actually.

[@Asmgamer]

@@RainBitcoins well aware. Seems like these literally have to be too hot to touch to get them hashing. Can't be good for longevity of these units.

@@RainBitcoinsI was actually gonna say I bought one to waiting but it’s possible to ubderlcok for lower temps?

[@ronflipsen978]

Bought two, playing with new firmware from nswift (500+ghs), air mods and running fine. Combined with solar panels it's a excellent mining hobby

[@FreddDogg]

I'm just getting into crypto and I'm not to sure about all of the different miners however I do like the look of the KS0 Ultra, I'm trying to decide right now weather it would be a good buy with how cheap (i think) it is and with the hopes KAS will go up. A nice little test run would be really appreciated, GL to everyone else as well.

[@radcpuman]

My KS0 Ultra came in yesterday and with the coupon I'm going to buy one more since it will be half the price. At current prices it may not pay for itself but hopefully it will go up and I can ROI.

[@AnonymousMiner2]

When did you order?

[@FF_FREAK]

Hello I'm Thinking of Purchasing Ice River KS5L Hosting Plan on Their Official Website, Should I Go With It Please Explain Briefly or Make a Video on It.

[@jdbrews284]

Had some issues, 2 miners is showing 360 gh/s atm. I actually bought another when the price dropped. Waiting on that one. Thanks for your help

[@TheDejectedangel]

So guys, help me understand something, I am somewhat new at this. In the video (point 7:50) it's mentioned that you can purchase 2200 Kaspr for the price of this unit. Also mentioned, this unit makes on 10 Kaspr per day. My question is how does this make any sense? I get if you really like mining or you like to use these as space heaters, but from a best use of dollars, I don't get it. Tell me what I am missing on this? Thanks

[@sweetdjf]

You are not missing anything, the average person buying these doesn't know how to math. You will never yield 2200 kaspa with this unless the price of kaspa drops 90% and everyone shuts theirs down. The argument that kaspa goes to $1 means nothing because buying the coin for $280 worth now would get you the $2200 later. Just because it's 10 today doesn't mean you will be getting 10 200 days from now, it's likely going to be below 1 a day. I have an original ks0 from nearly a year ago august and at the time kaspa was .04 and I paid like $900. I could have bought 22,500 kaspa instead but have only mine about 10,000 and soon it will cost more to run than I earn making 3 kaspa a day. If I had bought 22500 I would have $3850 worth today, instead have mined $1700 worth. So yes I made my dollar value back but at less than 50% of what I could have if I bought kaspa instead. So it's opportunity cost you are losing potential gains by buying miners vs coin. Only time it works out better if you go years without a price change that would curb demand and or no more models manufactured and sold

[@imaginariumpictures]

I ordered one, the BTC fees skyrocketed and delayed confirmation... then they lowered the price. Still waiting for it to arrive.

[@donnyvermillion9207]

I bought four of these Ultras to build a little portable heater for my daughter’s room! Haven’t built it yet, so winning some Kaspa before mining it would be neat!

[@vikingzeppelin]

I just bought one of these ultras. coming in the July shipment. It's my first introduction to ASIC mining. can't wait.

[@PepeVillar-SoyYo]

Hi .. Curious things .. KsPRO with OC ( Tswift ) begins to mine after 50 validations, and even mines at 360, with fans at full speed and the extra of 6500 RPM + the over one at 3500 goes to these temperatures, at fullspeed at K1Pool .. 415 GH reflexted normally ... 56 and 43 degrees .. you Network difficulty is bigger than K1 ... right now at 22:35 Spain Hour is 339.01 P. And yes you are right mining, is too hard .. my 16 machines drive 4,95 at full speed, for just 125 Kaspa a Day ...today 26/06 .... Just as a good idea ... I'm Saling all I mine and exchange to ML, and Staking on a Pool at 98 % API or buying ALPH that now is in low price ....

[@riteshst]

I like the Ultras for their value to hash ratio. I was thinking about getting a Goldshell KA Box but now I am more inclined towards ordering 4 of these. Thanks Red Panda.

[@Grace-d7z]

I think KAS is very much in the future and KS0 Ultra is also substantial. I currently have 30 brand new machines on hand, do you want them, I can share them with you for a great price.

[@skillsone4384]

My thoughts? They coulve made it look prettier! I thought that's what the ultra part was all about.

[@benard9721]

@RedPandaMining Did you notice Fan 1 and Fan 2 stayed at 0 rpm for almost the entire video. At the very end I saw you do a refresh and Fan Speed went from Abnormal to Normal. I am having the same problem except mine won't come on at all. I contacted IceRiver and they said do not change them to manual speed that they are eventually supposed to come on but so far mine aren't and the temps are very hot.

[@RainBitcoins]

my fans finally came on after 14 minutes and 87c temp...Thats way too hot for my liking but if i cool it further it wont hash at 400gh/s

[@benard9721]

@RainBitcoins Thanks for the info! I got up to 80c with no fans in 48 mins and quit. Ok I'm going to have to push the heat to the limits and see if mine come on. This is so weird. Guess I won't be using the shroud and cooling grills 🥴

[@RainBitcoins]

@@benard9721 Ya, I'm hoping an overclock will come around that will give me the full 400gh/s or even a bit more which will allow me to cool the device properly. So either firmware update from Iceriver or an aftermarket firmware.

[@pugmad1981]

Mine turned up today and side by side comparison with the pro the Ultra has more holes drilled in the top plate. I strapped a 120mm usb fan on the top and it was pushing 412gh/s. But the machine was very warm to touch and temp out was 57c, so I placed a 120mm fan either side against the fins and got the temps down to 44c but the gh/s dropped to 318gh/s. So it seems the machine likes to run warm for the most gh/s 🤷‍♂️

[@ProfilaktiskasLT]

Great review, but can you check if the PSU plug has changed or it was like before on all models? 5.5-2.5mm

We need to see 2 things that is content worthy. 1. A disassembly to see how many more chips they added (if any). 2. factoring in the 5% deduction in the monthly payout.

I recently sold my KS0 Pros and I won’t buy an Ultra primarily due to the aggressive emissions schedule. If I did buy one though, I’d resell it after 6 months max and hope to make an overall profit. With the Bitmain machines coming online soon though, even a profit after 6 months isn’t guaranteed. This is a risky buy at best.

If you believe that the value of KAS is above 0.5, then buying machines to produce and holding tokens is still the best option, although they may only be replaced by newer models in a year or less.

@@ImKronzr I'm not going to lie. My Pros are a bit promiscuous. They get around. They spent the first 7 months of their life on NiceHash doing very well because of BTC demand. But, after their breakup with NiceHash they started bouncing around. They were all on unminable for a bit. Converting Kaspa to ETC, ETH, and BTC, but 13 of them have been moved to K1 and are pool mining kaspa directly to a @redpandamining Tangem Wallet. The 14th is the runt and under performs so I left that on unminable turning kaspa has to BTC. I've tried various places and have decided to set them and forget them for now. I'll add to them but for now, I'm not moving them anymore unless something big happens or they drop below "break even"

@@ImKronzr I'm not sure where my reply went but they spent about 7 months on NiceHash converting to BTC, then when they broke up with NH, they started their rebound with Unmineable before ending up in a pool mining. 13 of the 14 successfully moved over but the slow one stayed over at unmineable converting to BTC.

The ICERIVER KAS KS0 ULTRA seems like an extremely interesting choice for mining, especially considering its specifications and performance. It has a high hash rate and efficiency that surpass many other devices on the market. This means it can significantly increase the chances of mining profitability, which is crucial for any serious miner. Additionally, its cooling and energy efficiency are top-notch, reducing operational costs and extending the device's lifespan. The design is compact and practical, making it easy to set up and maintain. However, I must consider the cost of acquiring this device. Although the initial investment is high, the long-term benefits and return on investment can justify this expense. Overall, the ICERIVER KAS KS0 ULTRA represents a solid investment for those serious about mining and looking for a reliable and efficient device. :)
