21  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: ASUS B250 Mining Expert MB - 19 Cards! on: September 08, 2018, 10:01:18 PM

And I need to obviously buy more GPU's to make a profit!

Checked eBay quickly and found these deals

RX 470 4GB are selling for $121-$140 USD

GTX 1070 are selling for $200- $250 USD

GTX 1080Ti are selling for $400 - $500 USD

R9 290 are selling for $100-$125 USD



470/4GB wont give more than 25 for Eth

As a blanket statement that is not true... GPU6 is a MSI 470 /4GB

For a hobbyist heat is the main issue.

I ended up with my 9 card rig in a stair well where the heat can rise and its hot as a mother but the cards are all 68-70 c.

The key is its isolated to an extent from the cooling for the rest of the house. The heat pools in the upper stair well but its closed off.

I spent weeks trying to find a spot where I could deal with the heat.

Are you guys going to hold on to your machines or start selling?  Turn off for now and wait it out?

It's only unprofitable because of electricity costs. So, eliminate your electric costs and go solar. After you break even, it's all profit from there!

Solar is okay-ish but it takes a lot of panels and a lot of batteries to provide for a good-sized GPU mining operation.  I'm still looking for an ideal power production solution.  Maybe there would be some incorporation of hydr, solar, wind, etc in order to produce say 10K watts continuous or more of power independently and off the grid.  Let me know when the price for installation of something like that gets down to about $1 per watt continuous (i.e. $10K for 10Kwatts continuous power)

Maybe by the year 2050?

Got me thinking cause power is valuable with or without mining...guess like 3 or 4 years break even...self install and maintain is no problem

One thing we got in Texas is good sun.

580's ending up at 140-150 on the bay right now...A guy could find something to mine with those that makes sense (cents)...only thing is maybe the bottom isn't in yet.
28  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Mining ETH with ethermine : payouts ? on: August 14, 2018, 12:05:39 AM
Yup. After 7 days they pay out any balance over .01
29  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: I need help with strange to issue on: August 06, 2018, 02:32:12 AM
Same symptoms today going from 7 to 9 mixed RX's. Asus B250ME / 8GB Ram / 120 SSD / Win10

Had to increase page file from 16 to 32 GB. Solved.

Do you just have a single "A" supply hooked up at the moment?

Do the PSU and CPU fans come on?
31  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Bitmain is disclosing it's hashrate on: July 30, 2018, 11:39:56 PM
My favorite part is where they bemoan that they have been unfairly accused of "secret mining".

Well, they are trying to do an IPO. False information now does have a little different flavor...if they actually do the IPO.

BTW, I only have 1 XFX 580 but it is 1 click bios'd and 1150/2100 900mV/900mV at the moment.  Making 30.9 Mh
34  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Issues with some XFX RX580 running at stock speed on: July 26, 2018, 10:08:37 AM
The standard questions...

Are all set to compute mode - or else using block chain drivers.
Are all memory overclocked?

For me the easiest way now is to use fairly recent drivers (Adrenalin 18.3.4 atm) and set every thing in the config (all clocks and volts and ensure compute). Config set up all in the readme with the miner.

We can get between $13-$15 / day (before electricity) from a 12 card 1050ti rig.

Please elaborate how this can be done...

Fees are already getting back to normal. 8 Gwei. FUD.
37  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Adding gpus slows my rigs, cant run more than 5 on: July 07, 2018, 11:03:39 PM
I just spent the last 8 hrs or so trying to get 6 various RX's back up to speed on a B250 ME.

Started with a driver upgrade (had still been using the blockchain drivers) and went down hill from there.

Anyway the fix for me ended up being to go back to the Win10 fall creators version. Just couldn't get 1803 to work...reinstalled 1709 and everything fell right into place. Using 18.3.4 drivers with Claymore 11.8. Back up to full speed on all 6 cards.

38  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: PhoenixMiner 2.4: fastest Ethereum/Ethash miner with lowest devfee (Windows) on: January 25, 2018, 11:24:19 AM
So far so good.

A little higher hash rate AND average effective hash rate reported by the pool higher than I ever saw with Claymore.

Using all default params.

Cards running slightly cooler.

Power at the wall about the same but more stable than I had with Claymore. Phoenix stable at the low end of Claymore range.

Good job. I'll be switching for good if no issues show up. Competition is a good thing.

If you are still having trouble see if you have the Windows security patch from this week applied.

This article has the KB numbers...

https://www.computerworld.com/article/3246028/microsoft-windows/win7-monthly-rollup-kb-4056894-signals-early-abbreviated-patch-tuesday.html


I had to roll the patch back at least for now. Was crashing my PC when I started mining.

This morning, 2 out of my 3 PC did upgrade Windows 10 to the latest patch for spectre issue (I guess it is KB4056892)

This update seems to have caused me a ton of trouble. PC was shutting down when running 10.2 or 10.3.

Backed it out and things seem to be OK again.
