these aren't as loud as an ASIC, but definitely not quiet. Wouldn't want in a room you plan on sitting in.

All V100 VBIOS cards start w/ the "132" serial number sequence, all CMP VBIOS cards start w/ "032"

Nice!

Sorry to hear your troubles. Was the unit still sealed? Best bet would be to reach out directly to either who sold you the item or Canaan support: www.canaan.io/supports/

@motorcityminer it was sealed but I went about the red panda way and put heat sinks on it to keep it cool. Voided the warranty. But I reached out to the site I bought it from waiting to hear a response

Hopefully they can help. Wonder if something got short circuited while adding the heatsinks?

@motorcityminer i tried looking at the board didn't visually see anything. Doesn't have that smell either. Seemed to be working until I updated it. Hopefully it's something from the update. Would have made for a good video.

glad it helped!

yes, they can!

depends on when you get them, the future outlook of coin price, etc. lots in play. original KS0s did very very well. new ones not so much. hard to say what the future holds.

Best time was back in the GPU era when single rigs earned me 10k a day, but now is still good.

@@motorcitymineryea i mined 150k just gpu and a tiny bit of e100 … didnt pull the trigger on rx0’s … went all in to my extent on al0 and al2 lite (still waiting on that of course) … might grab one rx0 eventually… but yea missed that first batch boat so not super eager … might swap a little btc for rxd

nice, yeah most my RXD bag is from GPUs and FPGAs. I am too far in the hole on ALPH asics so called that a loss and passed on the AL2 Lite as it would never turn around my fortunes. Hopefully you have better luck on the ALPH front.

Yep, I was saying the RX0 was the lowest priced "0" unit at release.

Interesting idea using the nuts to melt the solder. Would probably result in a cleaner joint too. Will have to try that next time. Might need a hotter gun though.

Thanks!

100%, or at least screw in. seems silly to solder on the top side something that is under constant tensile stress from the springs

Thanks, unsightly but works lol

Nice, I will have to hit TVM up for some too. Gonna cost me a small fortune though, need like 150 of them lol

@@motorcityminer yeah TVM rocks .. but yeah try to work out a deal from him, i know it cost more than buying both adapters if you don’t already have the cables, however just having a clean direct from the PSU PCB directly to the GPU with no adapters, and the ability to fit cleanly without putting the fans on the outside is a plus too.. buy yeah you already got everything working perfectly so if you really going to do it you can do it slowly.

yeah, will definitely be over time. but want the 16G wire TVM uses so I can really push these cards on Kawpow as well. For pretty much all other algos, the 18G wires I got are fine but these cards are Kawpow beasts.

@@motorcityminer ahh thats right very good point!! Plus most of the wire burns i see are mostly always when you go from one adapter to the next lol

Lol TVM must have just seen our discussion. He just posted about sets of these on Twitter.

Agreed! my thoughts exactly. might even be opportunity to resell for higher in the bull, nfa.

I would hit up the @TheVeteranMiner (theveteranminer.com). He uses 16 awg cables which are optimal for high powered cards like these, especially if you are thinking of running kawpow @ 200w+ on these.

​@@motorcityminerThank you.

saw those other listings, not really sure what they mean by flashed to 16GB? all the 100-210s are 16gb models

@@motorcityminer yea i asked that is basically just the one u have but they have the cmp 100 bios

@@motorcityminer yea i like your channel cuz i live in windsor ont right near u

yep, I have both vBIOS versions. V100 and CMP. Both are capable of about the same performance but CMPs require considerably more and different overclocking. V100s are a little more plug and play to get max performance.

Nice, I used to live in Windsor a long time ago.

np, curious how it will work out for the 170s

Yeah these cards are pretty old and were run hard so not to surprised on the paste situation. Will def have to replace for higher wattage algos. And nice mod to add active cooling so it works in open air rig!

Glad it helped! I should have brought more attention to this sooner. Me and Ovalbore figured this out back in February.

makes sense. thinking they miss translated since it seems fixated on modular vs, non-modular rather than ATX vs. non-ATX

agreed! gotta love horridly translated instructions lol

That makes sense, that way less load on each pcie cable if 18awg or higher. Guess they messed up verbiage on the instructions since they only talk non vs. modular supply.

Thanks! Should have more on specific algos for these cards in the future.

you should be able to change the memory on either BIOS for these cards. you may have to do within the command line of the miner rather than within HiveOS overclocking though.

@@motorcityminer Try, you won’t be able to change it

@@usiffputz6753 you have to use memory offset. Memory locks don't work.

same, wish I had talked w/ him more. We had only started talking maybe 6 months prior :(

Nice!

I'm running LC 1140 LM 810 and +300 mem offset 36.7kh@111-133 watts. Power fluctuates a fair amount

right now, XelisV2 ~ 34.6 KH @ 95-115w using --lock-cclock 985 --mclock 150 --pl 120. as @ruskyscryptocave said though, power will fluctuate consistently, but most my cards are averaging 108w

@@motorcityminer thanks! much appreciated

@@motorcityminer so you're not using lock-mclock?

correct, the 100-210s are not fans of locked memory clocks it seems

let me know how that goes, but should help at least if you are running in the "mini" pcsp octominers, i haven't tried on any other case yet

@@motorcityminer Your method is better. Both core temps is between 3 and 8 degrees lower, depending on a gpu. Your method also requires only 4 fans whereas I had 7. Also, for my 2nd rig, I put in two 140mm fans (with 120 to 140 adapter) - only 3 fit, so I decided to do 2 140mm in the middle and 2 120mm on the outer edges, this seems to improve both core/mem marginally by 2 to 3 degrees. The coolest 100-210 between two rigs on xelis is 51c/58m (140mm rig), the worst is 52c/64m (120mm rig). Cheers!

nice, glad to know it helped you as well. And interesting idea on used 120 to 140mm adapters to get even more air volume moved.

I replaced the PCIE cables with 16awg and used PCIE splitters 1 one of the pcsb octo x12's. Just got 12 more and going to explore options. Not sure I would mine kapow on these

@@dubbs-1 Gotcha, yeah, I did the same - changed all of those 18awg for 16awg. Theoretically should be ok if not using for kawpow.

same, running 16awg dual 6+2 pin cables atm which should be fine for everything except max kawpow clocks. working on solution for that.

right now, XelisV2 ~ 34.6 KH @110w using --lock-cclock 985 --mclock 150 --pl 120

Thanks! appreciate the support!

Nice! I have 16 gauge dual 6+2 pin cables for each card atm. The only algo I have found that really would warrant even better cables is running kawpow max out on these. Hoping to get into more algo specific content on these in the future.

@@motorcityminer confirmed reverse fans cool these far better. Went from needing 80-90% fans down to 65% and cards are running about 5-10 C lower. Thank you

glad to help!

@motorcityminer I have a mini 12 from PCSP on the way, I believe it only has one 6+2 cable per card. Would I need to replace the wiring to accommodate for two 6+2 per card?

Nice, and yeah, these things are Kawpow monsters. The reverse airflow definitely helps get more headroom on high wattage algos like kawpow. Can easily get 62+ MH @ around 250w

Same, but I have also found w/ the proper tuning, the CMP vBIOS versions can hit the same performance on most algos. There are a few exceptions where I wasn't able to achieve the same efficiency but so far I have been able to hit the same max hashrates on both vBIOS for every algo. More content to come.

I found a guy that can flash them. Requires soldering. I need a copy of that bios 88.00.51.00.04

Thanks for the support!

Yeah, the little machines are all kinda bricks at this point. Unless you get great deal on the first batch of big machine. Really becoming a coin just for the big farms.

sorry to hear that man. I haven't heard too many stories like your but hope they get you a resolution. Did you buy through 3rd party out of curiosity?

Sorry man. That is some rotten luck.

Thanks!

I’d be interested. Price?

May the odds be in our favor! DCA is giving me some hope, not much though lol

Nice, good to know!

​@motorcityminer what about nicehash? Haven't gotten my AL0s yet but might just mine and get paid out in BTC. Thoughts?

Not sure, nfa but I am more bullish on ALPH than BTC so prefer ALPH payouts

I hope so too!

Yeah, really hoping for a shipment delay on Bitmain's part. IceRiver batches tend to be rather small so shouldn't affect earnings to much, especially since they don't have a full size ASIC yet.

No problem!
