FOR THE RECORD:
VOLTAGE CAN BE INCREASED ON THIS MODEL BY 2mv Increments!
Clock changes are offsets, so find what your desired GH, divide by stock, minus 1, then multiply by 550(base clock).
Example: 300GH
300GH/200GH = 1.5
1.5-1 = .5
.5*550 = 275MHZ offset

@@djmanos8725 factory reset the miner to go straight back to factory. That can be done in the web gui or on the back of the machine. The 1% fee is a dev fee, he’s working on all kinds of addons and changes, be excited!
This is for ks0pro? Because In github he say except ks0pro,

Good explanation of the OC method thank you
Glad you liked it
It works for me… and it’s free! Thank you show much!! I will update the psu and the fun to boost 300-350!!
Make sure you have the other cooling mods as well
Thanks very much, just upgraded one of my units, will do my No 2 tomorrow. happy to pay the dev fee, the other option up front fee was waaay to expensive for what you get.
Plus they seem to set the machine to kill as well. This gives you much more control
Thanks 4 the info, so far my first day testing it on 2 ks0 pro, my safe OC values are 250 Mhz (45 % increase from 550 Mhz base clock) and 28 mV, between 280 and 300 GH/s, no plates, fan at 100 %, 120 mm blowing towards the unit and a big fan blowing from the ethernet plate to the other side. Will 3d print a case soon but so far tems are between 47 and 51 on the chip, 52 on the exhaust and 29 on the intake. Board temps between 70 and 80. 230 v PSU. No readings yet on wattage.
Will try soon!
Please do!
thanks for this! I just got my first KS0 pro and quickly realized I probably won't ROI till 2026 as is... I am a total n00b so overclocking seems a little out of my wheelhouse, but I think I can probably do it after watching this :)
Feel free to reachout in the kaspa discord they’ll help you out!
Thanks
Really good information, very handy for ppl wanting to OC the KS0 Pro themselves. I use the paid version myself, as I can't be assed to FAFO😂
The upfront fee version is FA without actually telling you to what degree... in fact, it's almost certainly running more voltage than you actually need.
@ryandugan I'm running the 300GH OC, my voltages are Min 435mV Max 449mV
@@N1NJAKIDD yeah, i'm talking about the setting. if you want to provide a preconfigured OC that will work on everyones machines, you need to configure it to the lowest common denominator. so unless you got the shit end of the silicon lottery, you're probably configured for more voltage than necessary
Immersion cooling overclocks?
are the heatsinks for the mosfets touching both the chip below it and the larger box next to it? its resting against it?
Does it matter what pool you put it in for the overclock? Can I use humpool?
I lost the audio during the part when you were talking about the ducting. Was the thermal paste you wiped off already applied, and does that need replacing with a better paste? I don't know whether you took that part off to explain adding heatsinks to that area or if it was to show where the paste is needed. You speak very quickly
replace with better paste :). I wiped my new paste off just for you guys haha
Thank you for nice work. When i try to install firmware, I m getting "md5 err" how could i solve this?
Will 7x7x4 heatsinks work or are they too small
What is the reason for changing thermal paste on the down side? If I put this ks0 pro inside the refrigerator for mining. What harm could it have?
Poor thermal paste quality/application from the factory, anywhere from 5-20C difference in temp. Putting it in the fridge is not really advisable as the limit temperature wise really is the power stage/vrm.
I have the updated pbfarmer software. I can see 3 board temps: intake, exhaust, and power stage. What is the power stage and what is a good temperature range for it? Mine is constantly in the mid to upper 70s and every once in a while it will spike to 85 and then go back to the mid to upper 70s. The other temps seem good (intake 25 and exhaust 47) and all of the chip temps are around 40
if i have a bunch of the 9mm heatsinks already but there the aluminum ones not copperwill they still work
Probably but not to the same extent
thermal paste is suitable Thermal conductivity, W/(m⋅K): 5 or do you need more than 5 ?
How are the fans powered? USB or onboard connectors?
they are currently wall powered axials
Uploaded the firmware but nothing happens. Just opens the default factory firmware anyone knows why?
i bought the 230w power supply, i tested and is working, but when i connect to the KS0 Pro nothing happens the machi dont get power. Do anyone got the same problem?
Calcium carbonate powder added to epoxy, enhances thermal conductivity.
its not needed the 4 inline fans if we god the thermal pads and paste and twins fans and head sinks?
There was a model someone drafted with 4 inline fans, but that does defeat the purpose of the original packaging. Dual axial will have a higher cfm. I would be concerned about backpressure on the regular fans
increasing the clock speed without increasing the core voltage does make the unit consumption higher or the same? and how much clock oc did you gained without overvolting?
higher clocks always means more power. higher voltage means more power squared
@@ryandugan Thanks for clarify :) wonder what is the highest to push without upgrading the psu
Have you thought about making custom water cooled heatsink?
So the trouble would be the spacing with other components in the way, custom water cooling would have a greater cost than even potentially immersion cooling
For the heat sink I saw people use taller one would they be better?
Yes you definitely can! Probably need to do an updated video, but was waiting on my new KS0 Pro to come in
@@LukewarmMiner ok look like Amazon don't got them in stock and Walmart don't sell them so got find where I can get them. Waiting on my pro come in
Does the pool still need to be to pbfarmer? If not what happens to the OC?
No thats just a default, thats his address. Put in whatever address you want
@@LukewarmMiner thank you. No more dev fee?
Install went just fine. Put in all my Data, but since then no payouts. I can still see my stats herominer and everything.
Well, have to wait to hit some kas
Chiplets lol... But I do thank you for the awesome video... I have some kso ultras on the way. Hopefully some overclocks will soon be available.
Got one on order rn, you know the full teardown and review coming out
@@LukewarmMiner sweet... Looking forward to it... I just checked out your Etsy store... Shame you dont ship to Canada. I wonder why?
@@RainBitcoins should be able to, strange ill fix it and follow up
International shipping fixed @RainBitcoins
... Thanks friend, where are you shipping from? Just trying to figure out why Etsy is charging 40 bucks for shipping to my city.. I guess that's why you never had international shipping on. I wonder if the KSO ultra shell will be the same size as the pro's? It other words you think your shrouds will fit perfect?
What is the thermal pace you use?
Artic Silver MX6
I have a Ks0 pro just wondering if anyone knows the thickness of the pads on this unit and if they should be replaced or just the thermal paste? I have a fairly new unit but still want to ensure that the cooling is the best it can be.
Honestly look like 1.5mm pads, i would just buy a kit of 12.8k pads
@@LukewarmMiner sounds great thank you
hi bros. my ks0 pros clock offset is 275mhz and voltage offset is 34mv at 168Watts with the hassh rate 300Gh :-( Would someone plz let me know how i can lower the watts and top up 320 or 340gH? Thanks...
Any recommendation for stock PSU settings? I am currently on 108MHz and 2mV. Seems to be stable, but am afraid to go higher :)
Keep your mV low, have a power meter. Probably around 120W rn
How much hashrate are you getting?
@@gaming_dono_ now I am on 130MHz and 2mV. I am getting 225-230GH on pool.
@@gaming_dono_ 340gh rn
@@LukewarmMiner with upgraded psu right?
so if i try 365gh do i have to up 2mV per time to until it stable?
i don't know how much voltage i need for the 365gh cause the hashrate was down to 0 when i change to 42 mV ,but at 40 mV im only get 250gh :(
should be at least hitting 300 at that power
The is out now a free OC Version für KS0Pro.

1% fee directed to the official Kaspa Development Fund
I can’t download it
Hello. I just got a shroud. Does it perform better on a particular side or no? Thanks
So in a later video i will be releasing it does! Ethernet side cools vrm better, dual shroud is the best option, though you have deminishing returns
@@LukewarmMiner Awesome, thanks so much for the info and quick response!
@@LukewarmMiner Might I add onto this, I saw a software out there, I'm currently running 300-315gh/s, stays cool (60c), though unstable without adding mv. how would one tell VRM temp? also, I'm at 160w currently and don't wanna go any further.
@@dylananderson7819 pbfarmers current firmware shows this info
@@LukewarmMiner i do have that one, possibly an older version? I do not have dark mode but saw that was a thing. would you mind sharing the link for this to make sure I'm updated?
hello, KS0 normal can be overclocked from 100 G to 180G.
Normaly if im not wrong, KS 0 PRO, 200 to 380G with the same calcul.
Have to you tryed it ?
Most get unstable at that power, but i have not tried pushing one that far
@@LukewarmMiner What do you think would be the overclock parameter to achieve this speed?
I would start by putting 30mV into the machine and setting the clock for 495mhz. Increase power until its stable. Honestly, probably going to cook the board or the psu at that point@@powercroix7123
I understand almost everything but this:
300GH/200GH = 1.5
1.5-1 = .5
.5*550 = 275MHZ offset
So once i made 275mhz offset, what do i do with the voltage? do i change it? or do i leave it as it is?
Voltage is dependent on the asic silicon lotto. Try 32mV
Have you found what settings work best for you as far as clock offset and voltsge offset?
@@bigmemebarney6203 not yet, I am waiting for the items that I need before attempting the overclock
hey brother, will this work on the kso?
Yes it will!
Should I overclock my ks0pro commemorative or sell it?
Depends on your goals, I enjoy owning and tinkering with hardware so I’m a bit biased there. Even leaving it stock you can usually safely bump it to 240GH on the stock psu and all.
@@LukewarmMiner I’ve only watched parts of the video so far, maybe I will overclock and keep stock for now. Do you explain what temps to watch out for? Thanks!
@@BurgettIndustries biggest issue part is the vrm/power stage temp. They have a shutoff at 125C I would keep at or below 100C
Can you give me the link to Kasp discord you mentioned
Will a 20v psu work?
20v is the correct one to use
I don´t understand this oc, set 300mhz, 32mV, get 130gH. How long is the programmer of the software mining with my ks0 pro? I´m not talking of the 1%. If you pay for the electricity, it´s better go back to the factory set, safes money and much time.
You should see the results immediately. Assuming the firmware is loaded, start with something much lower (100 mhz) and work your way up. Is the unit can't handle the settings, it won't overclock at all.
Im curious about using ptm or liquid metal lol
Would not use liquid metal the housing is aluminum
What is the software update 300 or 320?
software update is justing installing the OC utility. if you wanted to do 300GH, you would do 225Mhz on the clock (50%*550). You may or may not need more voltage, it goes up in 2mv increments
What do you have yours at for 320gh 225mhz and the mv?
Can you share the 300g recommended clock value and voltage value?
and
Do I have to work on the heat sink on the power supply?
So like any other overclocking, each system is unique when it comes to voltage offset. You would to add 225clock offset (550*1.5) to get to 300. Then if its unstable, keep ramping in power (2mv at a time) until clocks stablize. It should be equal (percentage clock speed vs gained)
Wow looks cool. 50% more hash is 300GH on 152W?
correct! and lower now, im at 140w at 310ghs
Now 135w 300gh/s
Does it work with ks0 normal ?
Does it work with ks0 normal ?
@@diogopinheiro6046 there is a separate firmware for that
Overclocking ks0 pro?
Yep!
Sound volume is very low.
Yeah, something happened with davinci, initially it blew out the background music way above talking volume, then i got it to normalize but 2 parts the voice is low. My apologies
If there is a 1% dev fee then exactly how is it free if it is not free?
At the time of release, tswift was still charging $20-40 for the overclock if memory serves me well. Pressure from PBfarmer releasing his firmware without mac address lock or paid service pushed them to remove any cost.
Didn’t see that way…
It takes a bit for the hashrate to show on web UI
It’s not work on my ks0 first batch… just control the fan, anything else it’s not control. 0 hash
Odd, I would reach out to “PBFarmer” on discord and see what’s going on. He’s the dev on the firmware im sure he fan figure out whats going on 😊
its great then everyone does it takes about a week then all that extra difficulty gets bashed on then your profits are back or sub what they were lolol .
But you got to use more power then! All of us :D

a helium miner, costs 100usd used, and on a decent setup makes around 2 usd a day, 5w consumption, and people struggle so much with these that in 2 months are paper weights due to network diff not to speak about how much these cost. People make dumb choices in crypto..
I doubt you are making $2/day. You are right, people should diversify, but remember to have a “decent” setup you need to: buy an 5-8dbi antenna($40), with lmr400 cable ($40) mounted to your roof($20) in a area with the right density of hotspots. I am rank 20k on hotspots gobally, so top 5 percent. I am earning .85/day. If you’re counting crankk, thats another 200-300 in licenses to make $2/day. Starting to look like the price of a ks0 pro for a used device.
And thats with RECENT PRICE APPRECIATION, from $1.78 to 7.80ish. The last year or so we were in the .08-.20/day when i was ranked 13k.
So really don’t know why you call it a ‘dumb choice’ when if you pay attention to heliuum foundation the biggest push is mobile, not iot. IoT will end up dying unless they find contracts.
Go look in my post history, i had a video up on the Panther X2
i have 2 hotspots at home, one making 1000 iot, other around 750. Simple setups, with 5m rg8 cable, one is a sensecap the other is a cotx. Anyway we are still far from the 50usd hnt price. And at the end of the day is a 100dollar raspberry pi. Not a 750 usd machine that gets useless as dfficulty rises
Enjoy it until they vote you out…
by summer the ks0 pro's wont make profit. you will make more selling the miner to anyone still dumb enough to buy 1. You will be luck to pay for the upgraded parts needed. The Bitmain k3 is destroying these. Hashrate through the roof
Wow, so Kaspa price will never go up enough to make ROI or more? Wish I could read the future like you.
@@IIKings211 if you think its going to go up that much your far better off just buying Kas now @ $0.10 than running a ks0pro. By May these will be landfill. The rewards get cut each month reducing the amount of Kas you will mine and the hashrate is constatly increasing also reducing your mining reward.
@@IIKings211 lol
Not true. Not everyone is a poor fuck and has to sell daily. If you hold, kaspa will 5X in price this year. You'll have your ROI and quite a nice profit.
@@IIKings211 should have bought kas instead of the miner if you didnt get in early.
your video ended showing 200ghz and yet your title is saying ' 50% more hashrate' + 1% fee isn't free. misleading title
I can post my numbers if you would like me to here, I'm also active in the Kaspa Discord. Currently sitting at 320GH at 32mV Offset. 1% Dev fee going towards the Kaspa Development fund is better than paying 300 Kaspa for the same but as a canned tune with more voltage?
@@LukewarmMiner it is not free, maybe do a calc on 1% for 6 years. where the fee goes is irrelevant.
If you look only at the upfront cost, it is free. As in, compared to the TSwift jazz.
@redlion6505 wether you pay 300 Kaspa upfront or 300 Kaspa over a period of say 3 years at a 1% fee = not free. free is free, as in you pay nothing.
@@LukewarmMiner Thank you for time and the information. Don't waste your time with comments like this. Just keep doing your thing. Thank you. This is a better deal. I definitely don't want to be giving out my Mac address to anyone.😀
