43THs RT s9??? WTF...

[wmabern]

When I first plugged in my first S9, after about 10 mins, the speed on one board shot sky high. Don't remember the number but the temp shot sky high too.
I quickly did a reboot and it has not happened since. This was not long after the S9 first came out. It's a 600mhz model.
Weird.

I made a post on this thread about it with a screen shot when it happened. Too lazy to look for it now.

I have had similat issues with Avalon 6.The hash rate was  300 TH for a card.

However,it woked without problem.

I also had aN S4 Bitmain miner ,and several S5 with similar problems plus thermo sensor problems.Just install a program like multiminer and enjoy yourself.

Look at that speed, i'm gonna be rich!

Probably a hardware issue, Bitmain's quality has been going downhill ever since the S3, so I'm not too surprised by this. If we're lucky, it'll be fixed in the next firmware update by bitmain; I don't trust them enough to flash my hardware, but if it works, it works.

Just sent the board out tonight to Bitmain Warranty in Denver.
Including the insurance for $450USD total is $20.10 using USPS Flat-rate medium shipping box.

Beats the hell outa sending it to Hong Kong. A s7 board I sent there on Feb 16 was something like $95 but the board was DOA so for warranty repair/replace, had to be done. btw: got the replacement s7 board 1 week later, runs perfect.

Anywho, Bitmain Warranty quoted the repair for s9 boards with similar issues as typically $85-130

Update: Bitmain Warranty got the loony s9b1 hash board and the repaired/replacement board will be sent back tomorrow. On target for price at $130 inc the return shipping.
Kudos folks!
