GekkoScience support FAQ
Common questions about manuals, registration, and support for this brand.
-
Do GekkoScience USB miners need active cooling?
Yes, it is strongly advised to cool them with a fan, especially when running over 100MHz or overclocking. The higher the frequency you use, the greater the amount of cooling required.
-
What software is used to run GekkoScience miners?
GekkoScience miners typically run on a modified version of CGMiner. Detailed setup guides and drivers (like Zadig WinUSB) are available for Windows, Linux, and Debian/Raspberry Pi environments.
-
Can I use a standard USB port for my GekkoScience miner?
No, a standard USB port does not provide enough power. You will need a powered USB hub capable of supplying at least 1.0 to 2.0+ amps (10-15 watts) per port depending on the specific miner model and frequency.
-
Does overclocking my GekkoScience miner void the warranty?
Yes, manually adjusting the core voltage for overclocking is for advanced users only and will likely void the manufacturer warranty.
