How to Fine-tuning Your Devices to Match the Best Performence

How to Fine-tuning Your Devices to Match the Best Performence

With the rapid growth of the market, more and more people are diving into solo home mining. However, this surge raises a question: "How can I fine-tune my setup to keep my devices running at peak performance?" If this has been driving you up the wall, this blog might just save your sanity.

For a geeky tech product, beginners often get confused about terms like "frequency" and "core voltage"

For short answer, the "frequency" refers to a chip's processing speed - higher frequency theoretically enables faster computations. "Core voltage" is the electrical power delivered to the chip - higher frequencies typically require increased voltage. Think of it like an athlete: Just as a weightlifter needs adequate nutrition to maintain performance, a chip requires proper voltage to sustain higher frequencies.

However, we can't blindly increase frequency and core voltage to gain higher computing power, as this is constrained by another critical factor: heat generation. Higher frequency and voltage inevitably produce more heat, which is most visibly reflected in the elevated power readings shown in the image below:

Excessive temperatures can lead to system instability and potential hardware damage. Therefore, device optimization is essentially about finding the right balance between frequency, core voltage, and power consumption - a complex tripartite relationship.

Someone might ask: "Is there a golden ratio configuration?" The answer is "NO!"—even devices of the same model may vary between production batches. That's why in our v 2.7.1 major update, we've added a feature specifically for beginners: three preset operation modes (shown below)—ECO, Normal, and Performance. Users simply need to select their preferred mode.

Depending on each device's unique characteristics, fine-tuning may sometimes be necessary. Taking the Zyber8S as an example(Applies to Supra Hex as well):

When Performance Mode is selected:
  • Frequency: 600MHz
  • Core Voltage: 1250mV
Based on our actual testing, this configuration typically results in:
  • Power Consumption: 120-130W
  • Temperature: 50-58°C

Adjustment Scenarios:

1.If power exceeds 150W:
  • Click "Enable Overclock Mode" to activate manual settings.
  • Manually reduce core voltage to 1200-1220mV and save.
2. If performance is low (~5.6TH/s) despite normal readings:
  • Slightly increase core voltage to 1270mV.
  • This may raise power consumption, but remains safe as long as temperature stays below 80°C.

Once fine-tuned, these settings rarely require further adjustments.
