Real-world setup
My home mining corner
I’m running two NerdQaxe++ Remastered Full Copper units plus a Bitaxe Hex and a Bitaxe Gamma 601, all on a desk in my home office. Room temp is about 71°F (heat in the winter, AC at 70°F in the summer).
Noise and heat matter a lot to me — I like a quiet house, and I don’t want my office to feel like a tiny datacenter. That’s a big reason I went with the full copper remaster instead of the flimsy bare-board open-PCB styles you see floating around.
How I’m running the NerdQaxe++
For this write-up, I'll detail how my original unit is configured:
Hashrate, efficiency & stability
What I actually see day-to-day
With those settings, I’m getting right around ~6.2 TH/s sustained over time on this NerdQaxe++ Remastered Copper unit.
The short-term readings bounce higher (you’ll see the LCD showing 6.4–6.8 TH/s at times), but when you zoom out and look at the local 10-minute and 1-hour averages, it settles in the low 6 TH/s range with a very flat, stable graph.
Thermals, fan, and comfort
At these settings, my local dashboard usually shows roughly:
In plain English: it runs cool and quiet. I can’t really hear it unless I’m standing right next to the rig. I’ve got four miners on the desk and the NerdQaxe++ Copper units are not the noisy ones.
Maintenance / dust / real life
Real house, real dust, real life: I’ve got a bulldog that sheds and a tween kid that does what tween kids do. Every few months I shut the miners down, carry them outside, let them cool for 10–15 minutes, and hit them with quick blasts of compressed air. Five minutes later they’re back online. It’s been smooth so far.
Why I picked the full copper remaster
The look (yes, it matters)
I’m not going to pretend the aesthetics didn’t matter. The red PCB, orange fan, and deep burgundy shroud on top of the exposed copper just looks badass on a desk.
I don’t have a ton of people walking through my office, but when someone does, the first thing they notice are the copper NerdQaxe++ units. They're a legitimate conversation starter.
Build quality & TinyChipHub support
From the moment you pick it up, it’s obvious this thing is built from better materials. It feels heavier, more solid, and clearly engineered around that copper for heat dissipation.
On the support side, TinyChipHub has been great to deal with. I’ve had responses within 24 hours on anything I’ve emailed about, and even with overseas shipping, every unit I’ve ordered so far has landed within 7 days door-to-door.
