looks like 1000-1100 is more practical for various reasons.



working on a breakout board for a dc to dc psu that will give a stable 12 volts of power.

may need a cheap car battery to keep it 12dc volt stable

note the battery does not extend  your mining over night what it does is help out during rain/clouds etc

A place like Houston  would do 5-6 hours of mining a day  on the average.   

it may not be practical with margins so tight

I found a deal 99 bucks for a new rx 560

I got this email

I know you are busy today. I had difficulty getting orders done and paid with coin payments. I did get one order in and it has been paid so I hope it will simply be marked paid. and not canceled.. This is order number 000000482 and as of now it is marked canceled.


Pdf have been attached

I am sorry for the confusion but coin payments was very difficult to work with.

Thanks again,

Philip A.........

Block?

well my order is still not corrected  paid for but marked cancelled

I was able to find a good deal on some rx 560's  but  I won't buy a dozen  only 1  due to the order below not  being corrected.


see below  note the blue high lighting

Block?

no I asked block ?


as a luck changer did it at 859 my time  we hit at 1018  my time or 79 minutes

this time I used a % at 1022 my time   so 1140  my time would be 78 minutes


not sure if % will beat ?    but we will find out soon

So for my next trick

block %


lets see if %   works faster or slower then ?


needs to do it by  11:40 my time  as    that would be  only 78 minutes

so the ?   worked in under ? hours

2 hours

actually in under 80 minutes

block?

Yeah at least how I look at this gear.

Anyone with an understanding of mining won’t want this gear.

Two fans pull 62 watts.

Must force feed it cold air.

So if margins stay tight I am going to lose quite a bit of money feeding cool air to it.

If a fan has an issue gear may over heat.

So basically this miner is for an ac hosting place with crazy cheap power. And is short on space.

I simple don’t see why you buy this using 82 watts per th and needing ac

Over the Avalon the s9 or the t1/t2. All of which can survive a 90f room with fan cooling.

you got in at high tide

now its low tide.

it can be very tough to survive.

it should be okay to load

http://squirrelsresearch.com/sqrl-miner/

this seems to be it above.

it is a loser unless your power cost is close to zero

if you have 0-4 cents a kwatt it makes profit.

at 5 cent power it loses   20 cents a month
at 4 cent power it earns $4.43 a month
at 3 cent power it earns $9.07 a month
at 2 cent  ................... $13.71
at 1 cent  ................... $18.34
at 0 cent .................... $22.98

so it should pay off in 5 months if your power is free

of course if you need a space heater and would use one anyway it has more value.
at 0 cent

it is not about better gear right now

the game is cheap power as gear has flooded the market.

this should be in marketplace

I would offer to escrow them for you  if the buyer wants an escrow.



since you have 35 of them

I suggest you sell in multiples of 3 or more rather then 1 at a time.

I ordered 2 of these from evga

https://www.evga.com/products/product.aspx?pn=220-P2-1000-XR

cost 260 for the 2

they now have  12 year warranties

I order these 2 from amazon

mobo was about 175 + 2%  or 179

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07BVNYFM2/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o01_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

cpu was about 225 + 2% or  230

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07B41717Z/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o02_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

they are good prices for those psus

and amazon  for prime has this cpu

225 vs 299
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07B41717Z/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o02_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1


175 vs 225


https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07BVNYFM2/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o01_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

or 400 vs 524

https://www.evga.com/products/product.aspx?pn=210-PQ-1000-X1

this is a 1000 watt for 129

3 key parts for a damn good pc

529  instead of 735

now eBay has  25 off 119 so  use primo119 as the code

get 500gb samsung ssd for 99
https://www.ebay.com/itm/Samsung-860-EVO-500GB-2-5-Inch-SATA-III-Internal-SSD-MZ-76E500B-AM-NEW/163151820530?


628 missing ram and case still very nice for a pc build

Eth is a very large coin  with a lot of value  and it has delayed going to POS for years.

It  makes money for me  via nicehash   and the eth enlargement pill  my 1080tis all do about 50mh mining it.

https://www.nicehash.com/miner/1JdC6Xg3ajT3rge3FgPNSYYFpmf53Vbtje

7 to 8 dollars a day  using  24 kwatts  my  home gear  at full priced new jersey power summer rates  = 4.50 in power  so 7.50 - 4.50 = 3 profit

that is 4 1080ti's  and  1 1050ti  along with a ryzen 1800x on monero7

gear is paid off so 3 bucks a day  is 1000 a year

shipping and ordering has been very poorly handled.

I paid in full  via coin payments for order number 000000482   446 usd

which is 330 + 99 + 17 for shipping

order was canceled coinpayments is simply fuck you deal with the seller.

gpuhoarder has assured me they will fix this and are backlogged.


other order with  themineority  seems to have been taken okay.

that is for 330 plus 14.75 to ship  or 344.75

so I am 790 out of pocket  all paid to coinpayments

and only  the 344.75 order is good at this moment.

Soo  rathe then spend more on squirrels  I purchased  2 more s9i's  coming in two days  850 after coupons

and I grabbed the ryzen 7 2700  and the aorus mobo 400 usd for the two parts they are due on weds.

thats 1250  that would have been spent here on squirrels  but order system  errors   have made me  delay more orders.

So if squirrels corrects errors  I get 1 order in august  and I get 1 order in sept.

by then  my s9's  at 28th  will have mined for 75 days.


I am disappointed  in logistics with squirrels  but they are typical for a start up miner company.
I spent the money  because they are in Ohio usa based.

well maybe they will correct my cancelled order today.

They are  not taking advantage  of other designers.

use avalon 841 heatssinks
use halong t1 style firmware for speed control

82 watts  per th

   fast speed       15 th  1230 watts
  medium speed  13 th  1066 watts
  slow speed       12 th    984  watts

easy peasy

yes a 3 step plan is mining indirectly, but it is mining the coin.  still you dumped coins back by power and gear for coins backed basically on imagination.

Not saying that you can't make money that way.  It is just a lot risky compared to what I do.

I mine  BTG today with gear that is paid off.  I sell enough BTG to pay the power.

I hold only the paid off BTG = I absolutely make money.
