4.5 means two of the boards dropped out, hence you get a third of the hash rate.

Interesting, on the Ant Miner web console, it says all 3 are online, just hashing at 1.5k each... Most folks were reporting they would see HW errors or the 3rd card going to 0 when their overclock was too high, so I was assuming this was slightly different.

Well, in my case I would see 2 hashing at 0. So maybe a slightly different scenarios.

In what mining pool you are mining with your z9 mini. I used to work with suprnova and mining pool hub. Suprnova not support Asic
any tips ?

Fron my experience Flypool (https://zcash.flypool.org/) pays out the best if mining ZCash. SlushPool (https://slushpool.com) is good too. Both of these are rock solid stability wise.

I generally mine at Prohashing (https://prohashing.com) because it lets me choose any payout coin I like and their profitability seems equivalent to the rest of the pools despite their 5% fee. You'll DEFINITELY need a backup pool if mining with them because their servers give problems once in a while.

I am on Mining Pool Hub.. Seems fine.. Have you tried that?... its a solid service too.
One member mentioned that earnings were lower than expected using whattomine calculator... any comments anyone?...

I've tried miningpoolhub and they're fine. Two problems I have with them is:
a) Statistics reporting is HORRIBLE. Don't like their dashboard - it has nothing except a silly meter type thing indicating the "rough" hashrate for your miners. Doesn't update frequently enough either.
b) Conversion to the coin of your choice is not "real time". At Prohashing the mined coin is converted to the payout coin at the time of mining - and credit given to you is as of that time. At Miningpoolhub, they batch convert it some time in the future - and your payout depends on the value of the mined and the payout coins at that time in the future.

I wil try out flypool. I now mine with MPH but i never try the auto exchange.

Just got my batch 2 Mini yesterday. Ran it at 650 Mhz all night and had no HW errors and minimal pool rejects (using nanopool). Getting around 14.8Ksol/s. What's odd is I changed the cgminer.conf to set the speed to something higher but anything higher than 650 just gives me a really low hash rate, around 4.5Ksol/s, even 655 Mhz. No HW errors, just slow hashing. Anyone else experience this?

I agree with your views on MPH.. On Prohashing do you just put the one algo in and Prohashing converts all mined coins to BTC and deposits BTC.. Or do we need each and individual wallets?... Cant see much about algo for ASIC.. thanks

I got one of the batch 1 z9 mini and it's nearly at ROI already, can't believe I didn't just go all in and buy as many as I could afford.

Anyone else gutted they missed the boat on this one?

Hello all,

Noob Antminer here, but been mining GPU's since Jan. Thought i would jump on the ASIC bandwagon and invest in a Z9Mini using some of the GPU profits. Been reading this thread and it seems i am one of the Lucky Batch 2 owners, in having a a Z9M that can be overclocked and have mine steady @681 churning out 14.75 on the miner with the pool showing 16.

My question(s) to the learned Antminers out there, is i am using Antpool, but not read of anyone else using this pool? Is this a good pool? or would you recommend Anything but Antpool?

Question 2: Considering buying 3 more Z9 Minis to make 4 in total or Buy into a Big Boy Full Z9. I am aware of the prices, aware of the PSU's needed, and aware of the stinging Customs charge to UK for my 1 mini (£155, Ouch). So all in all, the Big Boy Z9 looks not that far off the price of 3x Minis. What would you guys recommend? 1x Z9? or 3x Z9Mini's?

Thanks for the Advice

For some reason, I was not able to get the Google Chrome trick to work. I change the value, click save, and it comes right back up at 500mhz.

However, what did work was to save the configuration file from my first batch Z9, and upload it to the new Z9. Just select what frequency you want before saving the config file on the first batch machine, then upload it to the second batch machine. The second batch machine will mine at the frequency selected.

First batch machine has been running at 750mhz since day one. Second batch machine would not hash at 750, so I'm hashing now at 675 with about 15Khash.

One of my Z9 mini fails at 675, max for good works is 650.

At 650 i see some rejects, after 4hours 24 reject... mining on Antpool,

that is normal?

normal read all the previous comments.. i have one that will not go past 643
