Any info on problems with fan speeds on the s9? Got 3 hooked up today, been running 4.5hours now, and one of them likes to ramp up the fans to 6k rpm even though the temps are fine. Maybe a bad firmware? Also one of them is throwing .266% invalid/stale shares but this is below the pool avg so from what I understand thats pretty normal and will level out as I complete the ramp up period. Thanks for the help

I have one that goes from 4k to 6k every few minutes - or at least it did when it was SLIGHTLY warmer than it is now.   (I mean by 2-4 degrees)  I upgraded to "File System Version   Fri Nov 17 17:57:49 CST 2017" in hopes of it correcting, but it didn't.

The highest chip temp is currently 76 and it no longer ramps up and down - however, I have no doubt that when the temps get back up to 78 it will resume the up and down.

What is your highest chip temp on your S9 that is spinning at 6k?

What does it matter that the fan in ramping up and down. I have one that does that as well and have seen multiple posts be individuals attempting to fix it. I have never had an issue with the machine and have never bothered with it. Is it because the sound? Worried about extra running cost with electricity?

The only problem I have with the issue is the fan may die while I sleep and I end up burning my boards, I have seen multiple posts, but not a sure fix. It will add extra cost, but mainly just it not running 100% as it should, I'm already ocd enough and different board temps are enough, hahaha. As long as the boards stay cool, my worry is just the wear and tear on the fan. Still learning


the miner will shutdown when the temp is high. i had an issue where the AC went down and all miners did shutdown at 100 deg.
the lower you cool the lower you get exhausted heat.
