About this miner
It has one of the best efficiencies in the S9 series clocking in at 0.1j/Gh. The high efficiency is enough to help miners profit from high-end coins. With this high efficiency comes the need to balance power. The minimum set voltage is 11.60V, and the maximum set voltage is 13.00V. There are 3 chipboards were allocated to this miner. BM1387 is the chip’s name, and it comes at a size of 16nm. There are 2 fans to help with the cooling, which is welcome.
13 Th is the allocated hash rate, which is fair considering you get over 42 coins. The hash rate is also ideal as it balances with the 1300W maximum power consumption. What is clear is that the manufacturer was going for a higher hash rate with lower power consumption.
0.098j/Gh is the efficiency that comes with this miner and brings about the minable coins. The efficiency rate is high, considering that the miner comes with 1323W of power consumption. Where the miner fails in power, it gains in efficiency and high profitability ratio.
The miner comes with a hash rate of 13.5 Th, which some may say is minimal. Considering that most Bitmain miners come with a higher hash rate of around 50, it’s clear to see why. The manufacturer is targeting users that want to mine using a low hash rate for higher productivity.
0.098j/Gh is the efficiency that comes with this powerful miner. There’s maximum power consumption of 1372W, which is enough to mine a variety of coins. The miner is a favorite among miners with a few years of mining experience. Due to the durability and user-friendly interface, the efficiency is enough to get reasonable profit margins. And this is the main reason why miners prefer this unit over the other products in the S9 category.
It comes with a 14 Th hash rate, which is enough for mining major coins. The industry has other higher hash rates, but this one is the mother of them all. With more than three years in the game, the hash rate still produces profitable coins even to date.
