- Iceriver KS0 Pro Kaspa ASIC overclocks! How to optimize and testing results! Today I overclocked my Iceriver KS0 Pro! It took a few attempts to get it right, but it's easy if you watch this video THE WHOLE WAY THROUGH!
Here are the exact products I use to overclock my KS0 Pro's to the max!! I have updated these links and they are now amazon affiliate links. I get a small commission if you use them at no extra cost to you and it helps support the channel! Thank you for watching!
240 watt Power Supply is a must for aggressive overclocks!!

DUAL AC Infinity AXIAL S1238D, 120mm Muffin Fans with Speed Controller. This is the exact setup I use in this video.

Single AC Infinity AXIAL S1238, 120mm Muffin Fan with Speed Controller. This is an option if you don't plan to aggressively overclock. You could mount this fan to the shroud kit or the top of the KS0 Pro!

Thermal Glue: www.amazon.com...
ARCTIC MX-6 Thermal Paste: www.amazon.com...
Copper Heatsinks Alphacool: www.amazon.com...
THE COPPER HEATSINKS ABOVE HAVE BEEN SOLD OUT FOR A WHILE!! HERE IS AN ALTERNATIVE THAT SHOULD WORK IN A PINCH. I WILL BE TESTING THESE IN THE NEAR FUTURE. These come with tape, which I have been told works but I still prefer a more permanent solution like the thermal glue I have listed above MECCANIXITY Copper Heatsink 6x6x5mm amzn.to/4aAtKuY

Nothing I say is EVER financial advice or electrical advice. This is for entertainment only!
So upgrading PSU about $50, Firmware upgrade about $70 worth of Kaspa....so from an economic perspective you are $120 more in the red. Then time to mod, remove panels as well as adding extra fan $20. So pretty much you are looking at roughly a $150 investment to increase hash rate by 26 to 30%. That is assuming single fan, looks like to get to 283 hashes you added two extra fans. I bought a KSO pro from Ice River form just under $500 a few weeks ago. Purchased 4 others for roughly $600 around the same time but those came in already and have been mining already. Still waiting for the Ice River shipment to come in. I think the issue comes down to ROI. I am questioning if it would be just more economical to purchase another KSO pro for $500, not need to add any fans, remove panels, flash firmware and not run the hardware beyond its factory settings which could shorten its life span. Have not even looked at efficiency of watts to hash yet.
All good points. 30 watts for an extra 85 gigahash doesn't seem too bad. I already had the fans and power supply sitting around. So it really depends on your situation. If you have to buy all of the stuff brand new, then maybe it makes more sense to just get another KS0 Pro. Edited to clarify: I had the 180 watt power supply already. The 240 watt PSU is only necessary for potential future overclocks to 360gh
I think a lot of ROI will also be greatly effected by Kaspa price. If the price starts to climb it will offset the additional machines coming online as keep the ROI for the KSO pro reasonable. Right now I am uncertain if the KSO pro will actually break even this year. As for the firmware upgrade, yet always good to tweak a bit more juice out of a rig....if I was able to buy the firmware and upgrade all 5 of my KS0's then it would be definitely worth it. I might sit back and see if someone develops a firmware upgrade that is less expensive or even free. I get the capitalism to make money....but the businessman side of me says uhh pump brakes see what Kaspa does over the next few weeks!

These overclocking results are pretty impressive so far wouldn't you say!? I can't wait to try the next level up once it become available!
Thanks so much for these videos and no BS process.
Ordered my KS0 PRO just waiting for delivery.
Then I can add Heat sinks to Mosfets new Thermal pads and paste then Fans and New Printed sides.
AU viewer and subscriber
Thanks for watching! I'll be working on doing the same mods as soon as I get home from a road trip :]
a lot would not tell folks that the orginal 180 break works with no issues on the kso pro overclock i thought that was the case but only you confirmed it! thank you
No problem! Yeah I don't want people to have to buy extra parts if they don't need them, because that extends ROI time out!
Great video. Yes. Side panels need to come off w external AC fan blowing. I’m seeing 300GH to 330GH on my end. Have 230 PSU and external AC fan cooling it. Can’t complain!
But boy. Taking some screws off panels. Pain in ass!!
Man that's awesome you're getting 300 to 330gh! I'll probably be ordering another Axial 1238 to keep it cool 😎 I'm getting about 290gh but I'm wondering if I can eek some more hashrate out of it if I can get the temps down more
Why is there no free overclocks like there was for the KSO? I not going to disassemble just to over clock and would rather not pay for overclock either.
The Ks3 and the KS0 Pro took a lot of effort to get overclocks completed by the dev team. If you mine crypto, chances are you're paying a dev a fee
Is it 600 KAS Per Machine? I have 3 KS0 Pro's. Would he just give me one firmware and I can use it for all three machines?
Yes it's 600 Kaspa per machine. The overclock is custom made for each machine and linked to its mac address
how much more kaspa are you getting ?
About 45% more Kaspa per day compared to a stock KS0 Pro
thats pretty decent thank you @@GreaterGoodMining
@@sunnykgaming2541 no prob! Thanks for watching!
Great video!
With the OC how much you pulling a day? Are you solo mining? If not can you recommend a pool you use
Thanks for the awesome content
Thanks for watching! I recommend K1pool. Lowest fees, best yield. I did a floor up video to show how much I'm mining with the overclocks if you want to watch it ruclips.net/video/gaZ1Wbo1csg/видео.htmlsi=bvpzgI2wJWwxUA1y
Will a 20v psu work?
GGM awesome 👏 content brother, for some reason I thought you had the 360Gh firmware? Guest it was RPM? I wonder if you can swap the top of the KS0 Pro with the KS0 that has more vent holes.
BTW I am so very happy you did a 30min test anything less is not as useful, the longer the better plus you get to see the 30min avg. within the dashboard very smart and thank you!
I was thinking about swapping the shells around like you said that's a good idea. I havnt tried the 360gh yet. Seems like my KS0 Pro didn't like the 280 oc so I wonder how it would handle more aggressive overclocks
Yeah I agree the 5 minute isn't really helpful to see what is actually happening. Like you said the longer the better! Giggity! Lol
how much do u earn for a day after OC? i still waiting for 180w adapter arrive
About 35 Kaspa per day at the moment
Great video. Spent all day tinkering with my overclock. 😢 thank you for the fan links
Oh shoot, I think I forgot to include the fan links actually... I'll fix it! Thanks for watching!
Thank 🎉you
Im about to sell my KS0 ....
Sell your KS0? Or sell your KS0 Pro? Are you swapping it out with something else?
Awesome vid bruddah 💯
Thanks for watching! :]
Another awesome video 🍻🤘🏻
Thanks for watching Dumpsterfire! 😃
Hello, can you recommend under 100$?
It depends on your situation. I plan to HODL so i want as much hashrate as I can get right now. The network hashrate has more than doubled in about a month. That is what concerns me the most. Rewards have been cut in half
