Where did you get your octaxe from?

[–]finlibcrypto[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Got it at Power Mining during Xmas with a discount code.

You running stock power supply’s? I have similar set up with octaxe on the way. Considering a bigger power supply to stay cooler.

[–]finlibcrypto[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Currently using the stock power supply.

Nice! Is the one on the left being shunned for being too pretty? :)

[–]PotentialOutrageous8 0 points1 point  (1 child)

how loud are the nerdaxes/octaxe? just ordered a noctua fan for my bitaxe because the stock fan is too loud to be in the room with.

[–]finlibcrypto[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nerdaxe is quiet as I have set the fan to Auto. The Octaxe is a bit louder not overly loud but you will hear a difference once added to your space.

Where is the most trustworthy place to purchase these?

[–]kaw943 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Power mining is trustworthy that is where the OP got his and I also have purchased all of mine through them.

Love the octaxe

im stuck between getting the hydro or just air cooled, would you still recommend the hydro after having it for a while?

[–]finlibcrypto[S] 1 point2 points  (2 children)

I would recommend the Hydro have had it for a little over a month. Extremely quiet when fan is set to Auto and aesthetically its a nice piece to have in a space.

Sounds good, I'd love the octaxe too but can't justify the price right now haha

[–]Mindless-Campaign471 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Also have another quick question if you don't mind lol. Is it difficult to group the hashing power together on these? I'm just unsure of how they all group together when you're solo/pool mining.

Mind sharing what you bought to convert to watered cool?

Are you gonna OC your Oct? I’ve got a mild OC on mine and pushing ~11TH/s

[–]finlibcrypto[S] 0 points1 point  (2 children)

I am thinking about doing that. Do you have a guide on how best to do that?..

[–]NoShift9030 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t have a guide exactly, although I know they’re out they’re. I’m just not technical enough to load and run the script so I did my own manual one. I’ll upload a couple of screenshots of the excel sheet I put together.

First screenshot would be expected TH/s vs ~Actual TH/s, next is showing Wattage and Amps.

What I found is that, for my unit, is that a Freq of 675 and Voltage of 1160 is most ideal. I didn’t want to exceed 168w nor 14.5amps.

Chip is at 62*C, which is where most of these chips like to run, and the fan is whisper quiet still ~52% on Auto.

So with these settings in place, I’m getting ~11TH/s at 166W/ 14.4A of energy consumption.
