hello, anyone tried to extract latest firmware ?

my D3 have latest blissz firmware, which lowered owerall power consumption, maybe it is possible with u6 also

Wow what a difference in advertised wattage/Hash, that one really hurts. I got hit hard with the D3 from Bitmain and I pretty much swore off asics then and there.

Yes got hit really hard on D3 also, had a lesson didnt go in to heavy on these STU-U6. Think the safest if you really want an asic is to buy latest BTC miners, as they have the most advanced technology as it has been the oldest. You could get lucky and your miner could be profitable for few years.
Yes got the extra units, but really no point on them as the cost of power is to high to make profit here. Better less units with better efficiency 
Maybe that's their game. Advertise ridiculous efficiency to justify an inflated price for inferiour equipment
just to get the sales. Then they give away extra units when customers complain and still manage to make a profit.
A plausible way to liquidate old stock.
Looking at their engineering results, I doubt they are that smart.

Funny thing, the first batches performed 450-480gh at 1900w. The "free" units I got recently, ya pieces of shit. 1 hash board works in both units.

I got mine in early November. Haven’t seen anyone get 660.
You should have got extra units as compensation from StrongU.
And these units are heat sensitive, 75C on chip and they re-start.

Something about those numbers doesn't seem right.
1300 / 2050 = 0.634146341
440 / 660 = 0.666666667
Allowing for error these look pretty equal. 50% more power for 50% less hash.
Coincidence?

Well yes about 1/3 less efficient. But i assume the power would be less 30% from 1300 if one hashing board missing...ha . It is other way around.

So StrongU STU-U6 miner for X11 mining algorithm is been a big failure. On pre-sale few month ago i purchased it with advertised setting 660gh/s at 1300w .Which to me looked like a very attractive deal. But as usual with Chinese asic manufacturers there are problems, the deal seemed to good to be true. So finally we have received the miner which supposed to deliver in October 2019, but got delivered in December 2019. And delivered not as it was advertised, received specs :
440 GH/s mining speed
2050 power usage from the wall
This supposed to be the most efficient asic miner for Dash coin , as the Spondolies SPx36 miner is very overpriced and uses lot more power. Dont get me wrong StrongU STU-U6 is still most efficient publicly available Dash Coin miner. But it is not as efficient as it was advertised. My power cost is quite high and watt per hash was 2x better when pre-ordered, and received a miner which nearly doesn’t cover my power cost.
I seen some posts that some people have ordered before me and have received miner with the specs it was advertised. So i assume they have had some bad silicon run or some other issues why they cannot reach full performance.
Has anyone received full performance 660gh at 1300w?
