Never heard about either of those. Better to avoid unless someone has good experience with them.

Why you do not use one of available and trusted firmwares from this forum?

Probably not, I have never heart of them, aside from thierry4wd (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=1656984) "hacked" versions of some of the original bitmain firmware or Vnish (Asic.to (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5208500.0) / Awoesmeminer (https://www.awesomeminer.com/antminerfirmware) there isn't another firmware that's widely known around the mining community in this forum at least.

In addition, why on earth do you want to overclock your T17/S17 gears? a while ago I replied to your thread complaining about losing a hashboard on your T17+, all of these 17 series gears have terrible solder/adhesive and overclocking them will only speed up the process of toasting those hashboards, if anything you should be looking for underclocking rather than overclocking, but hey, your gears - your call.

Well mikey, people usually say "overclocking" when they mean both OC and DC (or UC - whatever you want to call it) but yeah, it is true that overclocking 17th generation of Bitmain miners is not a smart thing.
