i heard they locked overclock ( sad/
Make sense to lock it. Buy 3xZ9mini = 2450$ and normal Z9 = 3184. So mini's would be cheaper and faster then the Z9. The 'lock' is FUD. Someone already reported in the main thread that they were able to over-clock it. I have August delivery coming today, are you saying we can overclock them the same as batch 1?.. just go into advanced settings?...is it FUD that they have changed/locked?.. I have seen someone on youtube saying that the advanced settings tab is removed and something about balanced is there now... Thank you I don't have mine yet, but this was reported in the main Z9 mini thread. The video below this guy is talking about a patch in miner firmware...but its unclear how to do it... I just downloaded from Bitmain the may firmware for the Z9 mini ....maybe that will have the advanced settings frequency tab I have one coming today too... proof is in the pudding i guess.. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z6b00mUSr9YOK ITS TROLL INFO.... I just plugged me Z9 mini in and its the same as my batch 1 miner ... advanced settings and 750 the thing |

Hawkfish007 that is a nice setup!
What do you think about running my fan @50% constantly to keep the temperature under 60 degrees? I see that everyone else seems to let them run much higher closer to 70.
My Antminer A3 always ran hot, and wouldn't run overclocked at all. It's temps were always above 73 degrees. Where my L3s ran much cooler.
What is a comfortable temperature when running overclocked?
Have any of you guys heard about the new August batch of Z9 mini, the overclocking feature being removed?.. I have a batch 1 Z9 mini on 750 freq... but how do i get my August batch to 750?.. Thanks |

Ambient is between 20 and 30°C depending on daytime. No Aircondition.
Are all the fixed frequency models running hotter?
From my findings, and i work full time with these machines.. i found that the FF firmware, the fans seem to run a little slower, roughly say on autoFreq at 78+ the fans run at 5800/6000 where on the FF650 the fans seem to run at approx 4600rpm.. hence quieter, but that bit hotter..so the autoFreq i feel is for a cooler ambient temperature, i am in a location where my ambiant is the same as yours, i am on autofreq now, but when the season changes il load up FF650 and bring the freq up to sat 725/750.. get that bit more hash power but keeping the units cool at the same time, but in this heat that we have currently in the uk i am staying on autofreq. hope that helps. J  |

Ok, but I dont understand: Why should the miner be 105°C hot with stock 650 MHz on fixes frequency firmware and on autotune on 650 MHz only 85°C?
if you listen to how the miner revs up, the fans run much slower on the FF650 firmware, but on stock 650FF 105 temp seems very high to me.. if you were operating at 15TH then i would say 105 is expected, but that is high for stock setings, whats your ambient room starting temp?.. do you have a cool air flow into the miners? |
|
|
|
Ok, but what temperatures are reported? Mine went over 100° with the newer batches and i was a bit scared. Or are the readings wrong?
If them temps are showing over 100 they are correct.. if they are showing 80/82 ish they are incorrect. |
|
|
|
Can anyone confirm, that there are autotune miners from the newer batches, that are not able to work with the fixed frequency firmware? As I said, they report high temperatures, even at stock frequencies.
Or is there a way to overclock them? I did not find anything.
yes they will work on fixed freq.. i have many of them but i do prefer auto tune unless you live in a cold place |

I only reversed the airflow
My temps at 750mhz:
Before: 67-71° at 80%
Now: 54-59 at 70%
Lol, what a troll. There is no fucking way to decrease the temp as you claimed just by reverting the intake fan. The air flow will be so restricted, I wouldn't be surprise if the Z9 mini reaches the cut off temp. Agreed that would stop any air from entering the unit.. lol (Anti Cooling measure) |

Hi everyone, I hope someone can help me. I have several antminers s9, they have been working fine, but about two weeks ago, when I check my account in ANTPOOL 3 of the miners were hashing 1TH/s to 3TH/s. When I check my miners backstage all was ok, the hashrate (both RT and avg) was 13TH/s. I tried to reboot and factory reset the miners, update the firmware, I changed the miners to another ANTPOOL account, and opened a ticket with ANTPOOL support (which didn't help at all). I tried to change the miners to F2pool, where 1 of them briefly mined about 13TH/s for about a day, and then all of them were back to mining 1TH/s to 3TH/s. I have other miners in the same place, and only these 3 are giving me trouble. Here are some screenshots of my miner status page and whats it was reporting on antpool at the same time. https://imgur.com/a/EMF0FLPDoes anybody have any idea of what it could be?  Just go onto BTC.COM its quite bomb proof.. see some proper stats.. from what i see you are getting a high DiffA % people say its nothing.. which it is not.. but i still like to see my S9'S at max 5% its from network instability |

I found out that the two S9 14TH that were ordered on 24th of march are able to run at 85° @ 16,1 TH.
The four S9 that were ordered on 5th of april are not working properly with the fixed frequecy firmware.
Can anybody confirm?
The two overcloced seem fine. Why do you suspect that the readings are wrong?
Because if you go into the kernel log it says only detect temp upto 82.. that means it could be at 110 and its only detecting up to 82 |

Umm, guys?
I just started to try to overclock my S9s from different batches.
On one 14TH model from march or so I applied the fixed frequency firmware and ramped the frequency now up to 750 MHz so far. No significant HW errors, hashrate is over 16.2 TH at 85°C chip temperature.
Are the chips really capable to do so much more?
Interesting: Tried a second S9 from the same batch. On the fixed frequency firmware temps go up to 105° C on default 650 MHz. Flashing back the autotune
Edit: 3 of 4 S9 14TH get over 100° after flashing fixed freq. firmware. Any idea why? One even showed 132°. I dont know if that is correct at all.
I did not wait and stopped the miner by deleting the pools and flashed the autotune FW again.
I dont know about your temp readings but i overclocked all of my S9's and ran the for a week clocked at 15 Th, what i do know is that the temp readings of 82 that i had were 100% false, they must have been closer to 100 or more.. so i thought i want to keep them running for longevity so i put them back also to Autotune.. i am in the UK and when the ambient temp drops like winter time then il re flash them and clock them up hope that helps |

Nicehash now appears to be compatible with the Z9 Mini as well. I've been mining for an hour at 100% efficiency, will update if this changes.
Do they reward you in BTC? Cheers |

I have been mining for some time now on Algo SHA-256, Is there anything available to this aAlgo that is alike to the port on Mining Pool Hub where the pool auto switch you to the highest paying coin at the time without manually entering a new URL.. I have found Auto Switching on Mining Pool Hub for my Z9 Equihash Algo where it switches between ZEC, ZCL, ZEN coins.. Wouldn't it be good if there is such thing what can Auto switch between BTC, DGB-SHA(DGB), Peercoin(PPC),Deutsche eMark(DEM) ?

no block for almost 14 hours!
its terrible... i switched to BTC.COM last week at least the payments are regular.. but got quite a few HW errors there.. any good pool recommendations heading to 16h! is this normal? first time on slush! is it me or the slushpool drop to 3% of the world hashrate? https://www.blockchain.com/pools?timespan=24hoursIts proper bad! I have switched, Slush were upsetting me for some time with this irregular payment system that is near to impossible to keep track of.. better to have a payment at 12 midnight for your work and its done. not this rubbish.. miners working for days without a payment. |

Any ideas what the new algorithm will be when BTG hard forks>?
- Bitcoin-Gold will hardfork at block height 536200, which will occur around 3~4 July. Please mine with Bitcoin-Gold specific algorithm (144,5 and BgoldPoW personalization option) after the hardfork.
Current Z9 Algo> stratum+tcp://europe.equihash-hub.miningpoolhub.com:20595
Cheers
It's called "Equihash-BTG <144,5>" afaik. https://coinguides.org/bitcoin-gold-network-upgrade-equihash-btg/Thank you for your reply but i still dont understand..will the URL change completely?..If so can you add it to the thread please...and will my existing Bitfinex wallet be still usable? Thanks It is forking specifically to make ASIC miners like the Z9 not work to mine it. So as soon as it forks you will not be able to mine with anything but a GPU again (assuming people have made the necessary changes to the GPU mining software - I don't follow this coin so I have no idea). Ok.. I get it now.. Thank you.. Has anyone tried ZEN on MPH? with the Z9... |
