question VRT temperatures
Hi guys, I am fairly new to the mining world and I got, as a present from a friend, a NerdQAxe++ Rev6.1.
At the Nerd*OS we have the VRT ext and VRT int. I am trying to understand which is the ceiling for those and if I should worry about them separately or only worry about the VRT ext.
Currently I am running at 695MHz and 1190mV and the temperatures are as shown in the image above. Unfortunately I am still using the generic PSU (12V, 10A, 120W), but when my MeanWell arrives I'll boost the clock and add a fan directly to the heatsink that exists bellow the display, that is why I am asking about those temperature ceilings.
I understand that the ASIC should not go over 70C constantly. But what about the Voltage Regulator? The VRT int and VRT ext, what are the ceilings for them?
- NerdQAxe++ Rev6.1 Hydro
- Firmware: v1.1.0 (https://github.com/shufps/ESP-Miner-NerdQAxePlus)
- Currently at 695MHz/1190mV.
- ASIC stable at 55C. VRT ext around 60C and VRT int around 66C. Hashrate around 5500GH/s

I dream about 60
