Enhancement Request: Auto-scaling clocks (AntMiner) #465

Open ghost opened 10 years ago

ghost commented 10 years ago

It would be really nice to squeeze every ounce of performance if bfgminer:-

My scenario: I run 4 * Antminer U1 + 5 Antminer U2+ devices in a single rig; despite adding heatsinks etc the U1's flake out if I push the clock above x0981 , whereas the U2+'s have plenty of headroom left. It would be great if I could push the clock up on each device until it starts throwing out errors >(5?)% and then be able to back the clock down at that point.

You can already change the clock via RPC for devices that support it.

Updated the request to be just bfgminer auto-scaling frequencies; Luke's comment was a reply to the original text asking for a way to change clocks through the RPC API interface,

@nwoolls How's for converting frequency numbers to hex coming?
