Innosilicon releases A9 Zmaster 50ksol/s Equihash miner at 620W

[steelminer]

Does anyone order Jun promotion for 2500USD(compensation of 9999USD A9)?
I ordered it.
However they doesn't ship it.

Innosilicon seems to be a scammer.
I have never bough products from Innosilicon in future..

My $2.5K A9 is out for delivery this morning by DHL. Seems like Innosilicon shipped my unit on time as announced. When did you send your payment?

How do you get an a9 for $2500?  Does that come with free psu and free shipping?

It appears you just became aware of A9. Anyway I shelled out $10K for 1 A9 when it came out last month, this $2.5k A9 was a specially priced unit for early buyers in addition to another free S11/T2/A8 etc. Yes both A9s came with free shipping and free PSU which I didn't need.

I was aware of it's initial price of $10k and the current promotion of buy 1 get 1 free for $10k (one now and another in August) but I never saw a deal for $2500

It was a direct email promotion, innosilicon gave us 2 choices, get 1 now for $2.5k or get 1 in August for $1k. I am guessing this is to keep early buyers happy since inno offered buy 1 get 2 immediately approximately 2 weeks later.

Noticed new firmware on homepage?
Works fine, did not notice anything except it shows now correct hashrate in miner.

Hashrate on NiceHash with new firmware only 5-6 kH/s !!!!!


Edit: Flypool the same situation... only 4-9 kH/s

Try antpool, miner dashboard is showing 53.73 ksol and over 50 on poolside.

When mining other coin than BTC/BCH, where do you access to mining stats on antpool?

I would like to test the last firmware but the 6/30 version was installed by InnoSilicon on my ASIC, so I can't roll back to it if 7/6 version is bad...

If ZEC is not showing up on your Antpool App, you can add ZEC by clicking on the "+" next to existing coins. Like the picture below I posted a while back.

Ok, thanks. I have 23% of rejected shares and 31KSol.

I have switched to flypool to try it out. Both A9s are on performance mode and Z9s are overclocked to 750 MHz. About an hour and half later on poolside

Mine also is with DHL to be delivered today or tomorrow (waiting for tax payment to clear). Innosilicon never sent me a tracking number.

so each of your A9's run 10% less than advertised, and each of the bitmains run close to 60% greater than advertised.

not sure what to think about that, but at least the a9 warranty is still there (for 3 months, whatever that really means because if your miner is busted there goes your ROI anyways...)

so if they just sold a "buy 1 get 1 free" first batch for 10K, you technically paid $5K for 1.  Z9 Mini you paid about $2.5K for 1.  A9 still seems like the better deal with less power consumption, even though its not hashing as advertised.

would like an innosilicon rep to comment on reports of 10% loss in hash rate, but im sure we wont get a response

[minefarmbuy]

If you're lucky there will be firmware to fix this. They do advertise +/-6% so I'd reach out to them directly if your variance is more (in the lesser degree obviously). They don't see to be active in the forums here so it might be best. We recommend our buyers to inform us, so we may reach out to Innosilicon for you.

ROI with 45k sols should still be very nice. Enjoy, and good luck.

Are there any good reasons we're missing such that we'd pay 2% to Slushpool, when most other pools are 0.9 - 1.0% ?

We believe that our advanced worker management and device monitoring is pretty good reason and this functionality can save you more money at the end. But of course – the decision is on each miner. However we know that we are 'too expensive' for some miners and we are thinking about making changes.

A9_20180630_012251 - 复件.swu -- Need to email support to get this version. Avg 50.96 KH/s on miningpoolhub - stable at that rate for 3-4 days then I reboot...

This is a fascinating claim.

In what ways can this save money at the end?

Does Slushpool have inband device configuration or adjustment options?

I notice that with these Innosilicon A9 devices one can't even get into the UNIX/Linux shell to kill the irritating HTML-monitor logout tendency.  It would be pleasantly surprising that your pool has some way to adjust device operation inband.

Offizial Update you get here:
http://www.innosilicon.com/html/support_en/download.html

Don't have to bother them via mail, i guess.

EDIT: Ok i see first now, that i might have difference to the older version via mail.

I used now several pools, and Antpool was kinda the most disgusting one in the end result, endless slow, shitty app kinda strange, forces you everytime to fucking bitcoin and you have to change everytime to english from chinese before you can really use the site.

I have now used slushpool for 2 days, and i can tell you simply they REALLY DESERVE THOSE 2% PROZENT !!!! It is just fucking awesome fast. Even from vacation, the app is also verified by apple and serious listed on app store. The fucking Antpool app wants first some shady verification for their shady certs.

Also Antpool wants a fucking phone number and so and and it just works like shit.

And besides the shity panel and feeling overall, i get also LESS!!! I got like 0,74 ZCash in one day, i get paid every 3 Hours, not like antpool once a day.
I get usually now average everytime above 0,64 zCash, so i get MORE, so i do not even feel those 2% no, i only feel it that everything works fucking smooth and beautiful.
(Edit: before i got like 0,4 to 0,5- like 20-40% less, when i calculate now i realise, it is like they claim, its just awesome  )

Really i am more then Happy to PAY 2%, but guess WHAT ? I got an mail, that the Fees will drop to 0%, so fuck antpool really fuck that shit hard only fucking problems.
I had to restart my device every 1-2 days, it seems already kinda to my like antpool is sabotaging the A9, but for some it seems to work well.

But really Slushpool has even a Support, and they wrote me even without writing them, that saw that i connected my A9 and that i can ask them any question, and that the pool god optimised for the a9.

I don't know but the difference was just so kinda big, i really fucking love slushpool! Their genius dudes, specialised in pools. Their are just doing everything clean as fuck! I love kinda work like this, it is work done with love and passion, and you feel it and i am sure they have a bright future.

EDIT: It may not have as many settings as antpool but it just works much cleaner, smoother  and flawless and as specially i get more return, at least with my experience.

Both A9s were doing great and hitting 50+ ksols until I upgraded to Jul 6 Firmware. I need to email for the old one.

2% is obscene, unless you're new to mining and their scoring method supports pool hopping as ramp up is to quick. You'll see hash rate flux dramatically as people try to guess when the blocks come (ZEC and BTC). Maybe it's better now if there's more hash and the pull from dedicated pool miners isn't as soaked up.

Find a good PPLNS scoring pool with a lower fee.

No, we do not have that. However the per-worker monitoring will switfly notify you about any issues and limit the potential losses.

Yes, i did exactly, but it's not working. Nothing showed on the dashboard while the A9 was working. Please correct me.

What do you see when you press on the "Workers" tab?
Is there your A9 listed with red "call sign" ? If yes you just have to wait for like 1-2 hours to get proper statistics.
