Re: Bitmain's Released Antminer S9, World's First 16nm Miner Ready to Order
I was thinking something like that as well. *puts tinfoil hat* How come that there is no 14TH/S version in last few months? I think last 14TH/s version was like in summer IIRC, since then rest of is only 13.5TH/s. And when they get rid off every S9 for 3k 
they will announce new miner 
*removes tinfoil hat*
they will announce new miner *removes tinfoil hat*I read 14Th/s batch have bad quality than 13.5th/s.
More complaint from customer...
It's true ?
Don't search much? https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1569129.0
Old topic... And no futures...
Stock firmware from Bitmain on the Antminer S9 isn't that great. If someone re-writes the OS to increase efficiency, I will pay a dev fee.
I tried to reverse the system, with SSD, we can have access to everything.
But there are two solutions for now, use bmminer, and try to disable auto tune, and use any frequency (it's a risk).
Or maybe use ccminer, but it need to compile and work with Asic chip... And maybe it will be more efficiency...
The main question, is what is the goal ? More frequency ? Best cooling ?
Ultimately, to extend the life of the miner. I use Blissz firmware on an antminer D3. I can decrease the power consumption while keeping the hashing relatively high. He also solved the fan noise issue.
