I managed to underclock my autotune 13TH S9 by first upgrading the firmware to the 550MHz fixed frequency firmware. Thereafter ssh into the miner. edit /config/bmminer.conf and change Also one can change the directions of both the fans and the miner should reduce fan speed. Do not change the directions before underclocking though, as the miner will overheat. I tried that on mine and both would go back to auto tuning the frequencies. Did you successfully install the fixed frequency firmware first? One way to check is if your Miner Configuration page allows selection of "Search Frequency From" 550MHz. Is that fixed frequency firmware new? As in within the last 2 months? I tried to make that change on the factory firmware (something from March 2017) and the august firmware. |

So, it cannot be done, even now?
Downclock it abit would be nice
Not as far as I know. I got tired of the noise and sold the damn things. I see. Another option would be to try soundproof the room but it cost quite abit. Yeah, for me that was going to be too much trouble to make it worth while. |

Riddle me this batman  Why/how would moving an S9 from one pool to another make the stupid fans run faster? Is it possible that the miner works harder on a non Antpool connection? I dont want to say these things are whisper quiet now but the sound difference is very noticeable between when I'm connected to Antpool and when I'm not. As in, Antpool is quieter.  |

this keeps getting funnier and funnier.
Now one of the front fans on one of the miners is making a "squeaking" noise.
Cant win here...

Why you did a firmware update to a bitmain device?
From many posts that I am reading daily people saying that their antminer went to a worse working conditions after the update.
In some others also the device bricked...
Hope to find a solution very soon
The claim that bitmain firmware updates kill machines is an old wives tale. People flash the wrong firmware then blame bitmain for it. I have literally flashed over 10000 bitmain devices and never bricked a single controller. This. If done right the flash process will go fine. |

Because I moved them to Nicehash to mine. They wouldn't connect and mine before I flashed them but they did after the flash. Based on my 24 hours of mining there it was a good thing to do other than the increase in fan speed. |

subscribed. I like to know when there are scammers about.... If the OP is a scammer he's going on my "do not deal with list." If he's not, well. I've been had here too. Some AHole took me for $700 in LTC when it was dirt cheap. Now look at it.  |

seems I have three options. 1. Live with the damn racket. Oh well, they will be great heaters for the work area this winter. 2. Move them to a Colocation that a friend of mine has some hardware at. 3. get rid of the damn things. I'm hoping to do #2 since that will dramatically quiet things down for me.  #3 will be last ditch and only if I HAVE to do it. Thanks for the replies guys! |

There is a reason bitmain produced the R4. Their other equipment is not meant to be run at home but in a datacenter where cooling is more important than noise.
As far as putting a bigger fan, there is a reason the fan is the same size as the chassis. Putting a bigger fan on will just make things worse.
These things are not in my house, they are in a climate controlled work space. They are just loud as all hell. When I got them I thought I'd be able to underclock them so they would run cooler/quieter but I found out that I wasnt able to do so. The many S3's and S5's that I had before these were great and quiet. S9's, not so much. |

So I flashed my S9's this morning with the latest firmware from Bitmaintech. Now they are LOUDER than they used to be! Both fans running at 4200 RPM rather than one at around 2200 and the other around 3600 like they used to. UGH! Was wondering if any has tried using 120mm --> 140mm fan adapters and getting larger fans with the same or higher pressure ratings but run WAY quieter? These things are going to dive me nuts.  Thanks! |

are you running this thing headless? As in no monitor connected to it and using VNC or something to get into it?
I've got a 6 card 1060 ETH rig that initially needed a lot of hands on babysitting. It would stop mining but stay powered up but because I've got no monitor connected to it I couldnt tell what was wrong, couldnt get in via VNC either. I added a DVI headless adapter to one of the cards and its been running perfect since.
What OS are you using?

it is but its got two cooling heads and so far the ones I've found online only have one. Plus this thing isnt worth the $100US or so it would cost to buy one of those.

Hey all. As the title says, looking for a fried monarch or the cooling solution from a Monarch.
What it boils down to is one of my pumps failed on a Monarch and now it wont cool the board. I need the cooling apparatus. LMK what you have, shipped to Dallas Texas.
thanks in advance.
