Good your power cost is really low. So even with bad prices for mining with gpus you will earn some money. https://simplemining.net/ I use the site above to manage my rigs. I had tons and tons and tons of rigs. Sold a lot as I lost my cheap power location. this is my rig manager https://www.talkimg.com/images/2024/08/07/5yZB1.png I am pointing to this pool https://www.talkimg.com/images/2024/08/07/5yQzW.png Title: Re: Going to help a rookie set up a gpu rig or 2. Post by: philipma1957 on August 06, 2024, 11:20:24 PM watch as I use the rig manager to switch that rig from kelis k1 pool to nicehash kawpow pool
see below https://www.talkimg.com/images/2024/08/07/5yMlC.png Title: Re: Going to help a rookie set up a gpu rig or 2. Post by: tretaa on August 06, 2024, 11:28:00 PM yes I see...so you are going for XEL is that correct?

Yes and I now switched to kawpow using nicehash see new photo above of the my controlling software. below there are 2 rigs mining at nicehash. they do not earn a lot 65 cents about 35-45 cents for the 4 card rig I showed above. they burn 350 watts which is 350 x 24 = 8400 watts for 1 rig. say 9 kwatts a day it is quiet . 9 kwatts at 3 cents = 27 cents a day 9 kwatts at 2 cents = 18 cents a day 9 kwatts at 1 cent = 9 cents a day. it is earning maybe 45 cents minus power cost. so 1 cent and or 2 cent even 3 cent power will turn profit. nicehash pays in BTC not kawpow https://www.talkimg.com/images/2024/08/07/5y6mb.png Title: Re: Going to help a rookie set up a gpu rig or 2.

take advantage of low energy costs Title: Re: Going to help a rookie set up a gpu rig or 2. Post by: philipma1957 on August 06, 2024, 11:47:57 PM thats nice... thats what I want... take advantage of low energy costs you want these mother boards https://www.ebay.com/itm/256419491752? https://www.ebay.com/itm/387259480958? I do not know the sellers but I have a ton of six card boards and eight card boards. look for low power gpus. https://www.ebay.com/itm/235685338090? 200-250 top price look for 3060ti and 3070 right now you won't make a ton of money but just a small price pick up and the rigs will make good money. A 3060ti makes maybe 20 cents a 3070 makes maybe 25 cents with 1 cent power if no one ships you the 6 and 8 card motherboards I certainly will. the cards will pull around 120 watts with good settings so a six card rig can do 800 watts which means you need 1000 watt good psu. an eight card rig can do 1000 watts which means you need 1200 watt good psu. also get a motherboard and just add a card at a time. don't go nuts. Others will chime in and let you know what gpus are shit and what are good. Avoid 3000 series nvidia with LHR if you can. Title: Re: Going to help a rookie set up a gpu rig or 2. Post by: tretaa on August 06, 2024, 11:53:47 PM do you think its worth buying used GPUs?
Title: Re: Going to help a rookie set up a gpu rig or 2. Post by: philipma1957 on August 06, 2024, 11:56:35 PM do you think its worth buying used GPUs? here in usa buying them from ebay is okay ebay has a good return policy. I have no idea what protections you get in Brazil. Title: Re: Going to help a rookie set up a gpu rig or 2. Post by: tretaa on August 07, 2024, 12:01:01 AM well... we can Use amazon and other marketplaces that has a good protection aswell... but are there any kind of test/benchmark test that I can use to check if the gpu is still reliable/usefull?

If you have a motherboard programmed correctly your just drop the card in and see if it works. Simplemining is an easy management system. Hive is also good. The test rig I showed in photos above has had 100 different cards in it. |
