Why so serious?

What do you guys reckon is a best temperature for those miners to run on? I have noticed that when it becomes too cold it starts hashing lower. Its very strange, but it seem to me the best performance is when the chips are about 100C. Is that still safe temperature to run on?

Any miner I've had that I've been able to see the temp on has run best when the BOARD temp is 50c so whatever the chips are in relation to that. Usually about 20-30c more than the board.

So my batch 21 13.5 s9 purchased from Bitmain Colorado 5 Nov was actually getting pretty decent numbers, took a look at it one morning and pow, one board not hashing…power down/up multiple times etc etc .. no change, contacted Colorado, sent them the appropriate screen shots, they offered an exchange of the entire unit, bundled it up and shipped it off yesterday. I don’t recall reading anyone else exchanging an entire unit, could this be the beginnings of EXCELLENT customer service? So I sent off my batch 21 13.5th to bitmain warranty.com Friday after they offered to exchange it after a board stopped hashing and now Thursday night its merrily hashing away in my garage (granted the proximity of Kansas to Colorado is probably relevant) but it included this little stocking stuffer… Kernel Version Linux 3.14.0-xilinx-gf387dab-dirty #38 SMP PREEMPT Fri Jun 17 20:02:51 CST 2016 File System Version Fri Jul 15 21:14:01 CST 2016 There is a 13.5 sticker on it but it includes the fan speed control and adjustable freq YEEESSS Thank You BitmainWarranty.com

One of my S9-s board stopped hashing after the warranty was over, I might need to send it for repair at my own costs. As I know I need to send it in US right? And also what will be the max cost of repair/replace the board ?

I paid $150 plus $25 Shipping to Colorado a couple weeks ago....location is relevant to the shipping cost.

I asked them what should I do and waiting for reply after that I'll decide were to send the board. Thanks for helping me

So they sent you a non autotune machine. I'm good with that. I have had good luck with the autotunes. I put a replacement board in a non autotune machine but ran autotune firmware on it. The two original boards ran 600. The new board autotuned to 625. So replacement boards can be autotune or non-autotune. It appears the board makes the difference, you cannot see an autotune board unless you run autotune firmware.

..but bitmain thinks that the price is $741/btc . Why is that? I have a theory, but it is more of a speculation topic. However, it (price fixing) almost never works in the opposite direction (if btc price drops, they just stop the sales momentarily). I just wish that the price stays relatively flat for a couple of days around the sale, but it typically doesn't.

Looks like the R4 is back up for sale. Wonder if another S9 round is coming? Usually they announce these things, don't they?
