Yes all these water cooking setups are crazy expensive.

You can buy some GPUs that are already water cooled however unless you plan on only using 2 GPUs max then the entire setup will be bulky.

Basically GPUs are quiet in general unlike ASICs. As long as it's open air and not reference style they don't make too much noise either way.

Exactly, the production cost itself is quite high. But that allows all 8 GPUS fit into a compact box (45,9cm*63,5cm*17,5cm), with high quality parts (Asus, Noctua, Chieftech), no overheating cards and no disturbing sounds.

As to the open-air mining, admit it, there are not too many "cryptopeople" who can do that in their city appartments )

4999 euros for 200 mhs, seriously?
The style is great, but think you guys missed one key thing - 20+ month ROI with current profitability (and i do not consider difficulty skyrocket in few months after asics distribution and posible POS for ETH)

Thanx for the style comment ) Our mining device supports multiple hashing algorithms which is perfect for mining ETH, ZCash (which for some time was more profitable than ETH), Monero (the fork killed all asics for this one).

POS is not an issue here, it is a multitasking device (also for 3D rendering) and as I said, you can switch to other crypto currencies.

And what will you say about the hardfork to deter Asic miners?  Unlike the Bitcoin fork through which Bitcoin Cash was created, this fork will not generate a new token. In addition, not only will the ASIC miners become inoperative but it will also invalidate the botnets with which XMR has been being mined, taking advantage of the computing capacity of unsuspecting users since infected machines cannot be updated.

I used the 106 gpu.

It is mid range not high end gpu.

It is like a 1060.

I built a lot of gpu rigs.

You should not have used the 106.

A four card 102 gpu would be smaller and with the new ethhardener software could do 220 to 220 at ETH .

Far less power as it would be more efficient.

And it would have been smaller so you could have saved money.

Frankly I like what you built but

A four card 102 gpu would have used less power and hashed higher.

Plus smaller in size.

Silence is just an additional feature. Firstly, it is about the stability (no overheating cards, disconnecting risers, unstable mh/s), quality and longlasting of the components. Who said that it does not work?  ;)

This is only suited for newbies who have cash to burn. Anyone serious about mining knows better than to spend 4999 Euros for this novelty miner. Props for trying something new, but you are about 6 months late to market. I sell a ton of custom built GPU miners locally and right now the market is dead at that price. During Dec-feb I was getting $5000 Euro per machine running 6 rx 580 and had no stock. Now I can't move them for 3000 Euros. Most of my clients didn't care about the noise.

I like the design of your miner, and the low decibels from the miner is something of value to some buyers, but I do agree at the end of the day it's just not viable for mining considering the pricing you have the miners at. I just personally don't see the features justifying the price tag on the miner considering the state of mining as of right now, but I guess it does still target an extremely niche market that most users here won't be interested in. I prefer assembling everything myself and making a conventional rig, but I know some people like to go the plug-'n-play route with things.

no offence, but few of my 1060s rigs are built from shitty wooden bulks combined with few metal plates and all of them are open. It looks really crappy as frankestein, but works stable without any issues and no problems with overheat with correct OC settings.

heres another one :(

and by that i mean ANOTHER company trying to make in home "fashionable" miners : /

you all fail, as you have no idea how this industry works it seems : /
There was first Bitcrane, then spoondolies, now you guys.    efficiency and space saving, are more important than quality and style, will you guys not learn? :(

there IS ZERO POINT in making small hash "fashionable" miners, noone will buy, as noones gonna pay 200% markup for "style" in this industry
the cards are low end, do same hash as a few 1080ti's

8000% CDN! :O    you will be lucky to sell even 10 of these sadly :(

shoulda done some research , talked to some miners

oh well, nice looking unit

Err, I've slept for 2 years with at least one  rig in the room and I'm sure I'm not the only one.

Also, I remember seeing this miner last year, not much interest then either.

True, 106 and 1060 are similar. In our case, with liquid cooling, we overlock our GPUs faster than with the standard cooling (fans).

Liquid cooling allows to remove the heat from all three modules. Standard cooling (fans) remove the heat only from GPUs. That part of a radiator contains some small copper parts. The other parts are coated insignificantly or not covered at all, sometimes being in contact with the radiator. While mining, as you know, memory and power block are actively used. When the miner claims that the temperature is 66C, most probably it was taken from the GPU indicator,  which is placed in the GPU processor. At the same time, memory and power block can be overheating  (100C or even higher). If you google GPU thermal imaging, you’ll see the whole picture. When the system’s memory and power block overheat, GPUs start giving out errors. With time, microchips are starting to degrade. There are cases when after a year of mining microchips burned or degraded by 20%. In our case, all three modules are equally cooled. Using the thermal imaging,  we can see that with the outside T 36C, the temperature on all the modules does not rise above 60C. Another unique selling point of our device - the stability of mining in 36C.

102 and 106 gpus are very different, as well as their performance with different altcoins. In some cases they show a major increase (ETH), in other smaller (Zcoin). They also overheat more, and are more difficult in maintenance. With their current price they are not very profitable. We will consider using them in a new device if the price goes down.

As I previously mentioned, we use all the top level components in our devices.

Please make a thermal image of your GPU and specify where you took the T from? If it is a GPU indicator, the other modules can be even hotter. Normally, with the right settings, GPU is not as actively used, specifically for ETH mining. Also, a 1070 GPU is heating considerably.

For me it is too expensive. why it should be expensive way to cooling the gpu, there are still a lot of cheap ways to do it. Although the temperature drop i think is not too far in the usual way. Anyway thank you for sharing something new.

I always have found liquid cooled miners really cool, they are monsters at hashing and temps stay low doing that. That in mind I built myself one (actually just DIY watercooled my R9 290 reference cards). The result was indeed awesome :)

Liquid cooling rules 8)!

I agree, that our rigs are not for everyone. Different people - different paths to their goals. And we don't mind that  ;)
But, if you take a look at the components, the cost of production itself including liquid cooling is quite high. There are many added values (evenly cooling of all 3 important components), stability of work 24/7, quietness, compact, plug'n'go..

Yes, liquid cooling rules! But try cooling not only the cards, powerblock and memory may overheat even more..

For the ones who like our device and mainly for the sceptical ones, we will have a booth at Computex in Taiwan. June 5-9, Taipei Nangang Exhibition Center, Hall 1, Booth N0925.

We will show our existing products and also present a new, powerful and revolutionary industrial device! 

The miners on our display will be mining ETH all through the show. You will also be able to follow their performance online in real-time mode. We will also raffle all cryptocurrency mined during that time among our booth visitors.

Many of you had questions, doubts, compliments, comments, we are ready to show you what we do and answer all your questions.

Very nice! It has a sleek clean look and pretty compact, although I do have to ask the point of watercooling for ETH hash algo? This makes more since for GPU heavy aglos like LYRA2v2 or Equihash where that watercooling can get you high core clocks.

Some updates to this thread:

We have just launched a new website for our retail products. It has plenty of interactive features, photos and descriptions. Https://comino.com

We are working hard on a new product. Which I can’t announce yet, but it will have major upgrades.

As well as, an industrial product - Comino Grando was launched in time for Computex. There is a separate thread about it: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=4540998.msg40857840#msg40857840
