ya no one seems to read my posts very much lol. i agree the auto tune feature isnt much of a feature. it runs boards too hard and i personally would want to control the speed. idc so much about raising it but i would at least like the aility to lower the speed but with the new firmware your unable to. my post was just to give some sort of solution to those that wanted to solve 1 of the 2 issues which is fan speed control. if it helps folks great if it doesnt great lol. at least this way they can try to get a handle on the high temps when running these auto tune miners.

I read your post, just didn't fully understand what you were getting at, It also seems like it may not be the best option, If we set them at one point and it at some point needs more, no way to get that.
A software solution that won't let them go lower then a certain speed, but still ramp up if needed would be ideal.
But I will look into those controllers.
Did they do a fine job of tricking the s9 into thinking it still had control?
As I understand it, the thing shuts down if it thinks the fans stopped running.
