1. How fast does the ASIC react to power mode changes (up and down)?

The response time for frequency up and down usually takes half an hour and requires waiting for the hashrate to stabilize.

2. What is the increase in power ratio for the hydro-cooling miners and immersion cooling miners when overclocking to 10% of hashrate?

The power ratio increases by about 3.33%.

3. Can the M63S series hydro-cooling miner overclock? If so, what is the data after overclocking?

M63S supports overclocking through our official software, WhatsMinerTool. You can download it and its operation guide is on our official website. You can also use API to overclock. Related documents can be downloaded on our official website too.

After overclocking, its hashrate can reach 440-480 T.

4. I am currently trying to increase the hashrate to the highest rate and disregarding power usage. How do I go about doing this?

You could switch the performance mode to high performance mode to get the higher hashrate in WhatsMinerTool.

API can also achieve the same function.
5. For M63, M64, and M65 series hydro-cooling miners, What is the maximum power they can achieve after overclocking?

Regarding the maximum overclocking values for M63, M64, and M65 models, here are the specific data.

M64 series: After overclocking, the maximum power ranges from 4,700 to 5,000 W (±10%).

M63 and M65 series: After overclocking, the maximum power ranges from 9,600 to 9,900 W (±10%).

6. Regarding the hydro-cooling miner, will there be any delay after switching the performance mode?

After switching the performance mode, the hydro-cooling miner will restart, which can be considered a delay to some extent. If you do not want to restart the miner and need to overclock the miner, you can choose Power Adjustment in Remote Control.

7. Do you recommend using miners at higher frequencies, or do you consider this too risky for miner's lifespan?

Regarding overclocking support, our miners fully support long-term overclocking. You can rest assured that overclocking will not have any negative impact on the miner's lifespan. Feel free to use the miners with confidence under overclocked conditions.

8. What is the maximum inlet temperature for M65 Series in Overclocking Mode?

The maximum inlet temperature for M65 Series in overlocking mode is 50°C.

9. What is the maximum inlet temperature for M65 Series in Normal Mode?

The maximum inlet temperature for M65 Series in normal mode is 60°C.

10. What is the maximum inlet temperature for M64 Series in Overclocking Mode?

The maximum inlet temperature for M64 Series in overlocking mode is 55°C.

11. What is the maximum inlet temperature for M64 Series in Normal Mode?

The maximum inlet temperature for M64 Series in normal mode is 70°C.

12. What is the maximum inlet temperature for M63 Series in Overclocking Mode?

The maximum inlet temperature for M63 Series in overlocking mode is 45°C.

13. What is the maximum inlet temperature for M63 Series in Normal Mode?

The maximum inlet temperature for M63 Series in normal mode is 55°C.

14. Can I obtain an overclocking firmware for M20S air cooling miner?

Overclocking is not supported for M20S air cooling miners.

15. If the power of the miner is adjusted lower (operates at low frequency), do we need to adjust the flow rate, temperature difference, or other parameters in the peripheral system?

When the miner runs at a reduced frequency, its power ratio decreases and the overall heat dissipation demand decreases. Generally, we do not need to adjust its peripheral system and do not deliberately adjust the flow rate or temperature, because the heat dissipation capacity is already sufficient. At this time, a well-designed system has a temperature sensor that detects that the system temperature has been lowered, its radiator fan will first reduce its speed and there is no need to adjust its flow rate or temperature.
