50Ksol/s 620W, Innosilicon announces World Best Equihash Miner A9 ZMaster

[yrk1957]

Someone measured Z9 at about 380w at 15k, I did not, but mine runs at 54C, fan at 65%. So minimal heat or noise. And at current profit level power is pretty immaterial. It will become an issue much later in life, by then most coins may have already forked.

Edit: And there will be only a week's head start at max, I think, as Bitmain should be shipping rest very soon.

I have a hard time believing that a 50+% stable overclock results in only 380w @ the wall. That can't be good for the failure rate. You can't overlock inno miners, but they do release firmware updates.  The A9 website says ±6%. The Z9 minis variance was ±5 when announced. What's to say that the A9 doesn't have a lot more to give if Inno allows it?

The absolute soonest bitmain could start shipping these miners is on the 18th. The first few days of shipments would likely be the day 1-3 customers anyways. Realistically people who didn't order in the first few days won't see their miners for 2 weeks at the earliest. 3 weeks is a lot more likely. Their official shipping schedule is from june 20-30th. I'm guessing 1000 units a day which would confirm the rumors of a 10k units in batch 1.

I just checked, someone in Z9 thread measured it at 385w at 15k. And I have zero HW errors at 15-16k.

Now Bitmain's is promising a big update by 15th on Z9. My guess is that will ship everything in batch 1 by 20th, max. I think there is a reason why they pushed out few Z9s very early in late May, they were trying to get ahead of Inno A9 (publicly unknown at that point). And in the same light, my guess is everything gets out by 20th.

Leaving this aside, anyone with 5 batch 1 Z9s will hash at 75k at the same price point as A9, that's 50% more. Even a week or two advantage is not enough. I do agree that this argument is a bit mute as while ordering Z9 no one knew about A9, so its all hindsight in a way. But the this does not discount Inno's high pricing on A9 and tactics which they employed on D9s, pretty much a disaster for owners.

Edit: And don't discount a bigger Z9, not mini, being announced soon, hashing at 60k at $4000. Inno has only a month max to sell as many A9s it want at current price. Next revision will be to $3500 as soon as a bigger Z9 is announced.

Thank you!

Will gladly test my unit when it arrives on monday. Only willing to dedicate ~20 min or so if the rejection rate is too high however. Will provide the logs though.

Sure! That should be enough.

Damn the numbers on this will surely change - ATM a 50k at 620watts is around 100 bucks a day.
This is the beginning of a big ol asic dash.... again

How long will this profit last? The algorithm X11 was the same. At first there were huge profits, then the asics began to work on paying for electricity.

How many here coughed up the usd9999 for one of these?

I have a few Antminers, nothing special, and none of them have paid off their purchase price yet (and probably never will unless one of the random coins gains value massively).

Wow!Many thanks.I found it pretty impressive!Will explore further.

High failure rate on major pools. The Bitmian Z9 over-clocks in a breeze and this one can’t even do it’s rated hashes. No wonder they need a major giveaway promotion.

There still selling you something that costs them prob less than 500$ to make, they can sell a lot cheaper than 5k a miner. I wonder why they are so desperate all of a sudden, maybe an ibelink equilhash or a larger z9 soon. The z9 overclock ability doesnt help them either.

[jhartbarger]

I am not regretting my Z9 Mini purchase, mine runs at 750mhz with ZERO HW errors and chip temps are 65 across the board, if only someone would do a custom firmware and unlock the higher frequencies and voltages, ADD a rear FAN and this could turn this into a monster....

My X3 that I did the same thing to would run at 330kH and stay at 65 across the board.

So I paid $100 1kH which is what Innosilicon is charging and you have to spend 10k

Bought an A9.. still waiting for my “free” miner. Trying to buy a 2nd A9 with June discount.. Innosilicon is so difficult to do business with. They really need to update the website and have a real shopping cart process etc..

[serhanni]

Will we see forks on equihash based coins because of this machines?

Yepp, some have already forked, and some are right around the corner.

Received a shipping notification from DHL a minute ago that my free ($400) S11 and psu will be delivered tomorrow.
