Do you check the total consumption of the computer from the wall? I think my mining farm of 5 Rx 5600 consumes less electricity. You are doing very well, because you have one video card. When you build a mining farm of 5 such video cards, you will understand what mining on hot video cards is. |

I have already purchased RTX 4090, so I don't really expect surprises in 2023 for myself in terms of acquiring future Nvidia cards, if only to expect the release of RTX 4090Ti, it was interesting to see what they would do.
I hope you bought it for games and not for earning 40 cents a day. I unfortunately had to take a break from mining, as the rising cost of energy in Portugal is high and does not make up for mining.
What are the electricity rates in Portugal? So far I have decided to sell some of the old video cards, but have not yet decided what to buy from the new models. Mining on video cards now brings more problems than profits. |

You will be surprised if i will tell you even rx470 4gb plays games well enough.nvidia is smart made high price so discount will look very attractive later
Well enough - is very relative. If you're not a graphics fanatic, then a $60 graphics card would be a good buy. But I would buy 1070 or 1080 which have better performance in modern games but cost a little more. Yes agree that 1070 have better performance but price for rx470 makes best price/performance. I think it depends on the games. rx470 4gb with non-working fans are already on sale for 35-45 dollars. It's very cheap. For 35-45 i will buy 8 or 16 of them. Where is it? In Russia, these video cards cost 4,500 rubles, which is about $63. You can buy wholesale from miners or in China for $45, but the condition will be very bad after 5 years of mining. There are also mining edition video cards with 1 video output, they are even cheaper. Search in your country or China on aliexpress and similar marketplaces. |

I called rx vega 56 and 64 pain in the ass graphic cards  , I used to own a complete 6 rigs with 56 and 64 RX vega and I saw hell managing them, they frequently give me problem, one minute it's all detected and later two gpu will be missing in Hive OS. Connect the GPU directly to x16 slot without the riser, let's see what happens doing this first. Video cards 56 and 64 RX vega have difficulties with overclocking settings and usually the vega 56 video card was flashed with bios from vega 64 to get a larger hashrate, but there were no big problems with these video cards. You won't get that experience with Nvidia  |

I have heard the argument many times that some fairly use equipment are better options for purchase when compared to brand new. I can't understand how this can be argued when clearly the only reason to go for fairly used equipment should be insufficient money to afford a new one. My advice for anyone who wants to buy equipment to start mining is that if you can afford to get the new one, go for it and play the long game instead of trying to save some little money on fairly used that are more prone to developing a fault. Buy new equipment if possible.
I have nit such experience but I will say that buying old nit much older mining rigs my mean buy Mining rigs that are 1 to 2 years old than they will give much more profit cause they will go more to your ROI. Cause if you buy new mining rig that costs 5000 dollars than instead buy 3000 dollars mining rig that will be a good investment for you cause you will get your Money more quick. By they way there is a saying that "Old is Gold"So that's depends on you and it takes a lot of patience and also man stucks just want to do. I sometimes check the markets for mining equipment, but I don't often see equipment that are 1 to 2 years old. As a rule, older equipment is tried, this is 3-5 years old, because miners buy more modern equipment. But if you are not an engineer or you don't have partners with good engineering skills to test and maintain the equipment, then you will gain experience, not profit. |

I still mine Ethereum Pow using a few gtx 1660 super and Ti, what choices do I have? Since I am no more running on Grid power it makes no sense to turn off the rigs when the sunlight is up, it's a total waste. Once the sun goes down I always turn the rigs off.
Show an important hourly schedule for the generation of electricity by solar panels. This is not a constant value. There is much less electricity generated at 7:00 am than at 1:00 pm. How many hours a day do your mining farms work and where does the extra electricity come from in cloudy weather? By 8 am in the morning I already have 1200 watts available and by 1pm I am always at 5600watt in a not too sunny days , my setup is 6000 watt combined and my graphic cards don't consume much energy, I have been running the rigs since 2022 January, I don't bother you mine at night I use the backup for other thing, not worth running on battery since it's not even profitable. How do you mining? Do you turn on the mining farm at 1200 watts at 8 o'clock in the morning, and turn on additional equipment as the power increases? I understand that batteries and the installation to charge them are very expensive and I don't think the investment will pay off. |

Dogecoin Hashrate Chart DOGE Hashrate: 580.93 TH/s https://www.coinwarz.com/mining/dogecoin/hashrate-chartChances are always present to catch a block in solo mining, but with this hashrate you have very small chances. Getting equipment for free is always good if you know how to repair it. But I think you will soon get tired of paying electricity bills. |

My point is that a pool with a small hashrate can stop being profitable at any time, because a couple of large miners will leave. This needs to be monitored. There are no such problems with a large pool, the profit is the same. As a result, you spend less time.

Now, as for the miner, if it brings air conditioning to them, I don't think it's a good idea based on what I've read about it. But I'm still not sure about this.
But others say that if you mine, the room where it will be placed should be cold because mining machine it gets hot, and when that happens, it will consume a lot of electricity in your home.
I used air conditioning because it was uncomfortable in the office in the summer. Cold air blew on the mining farm, it's safe. But I have cheap electricity, so it's cheaper for me to spend $400 on an air conditioner with installation. But then 1 video card gave 3 dollars of profit per day. |

The problem is that new equipment is very difficult to buy in the amount of 1-3 units. Now it may be easier to do this, but when mining is profitable, then the minimum lot for the purchase will be expensive for an ordinary miner. Buying from intermediaries is usually a big overpayment for equipment.

Hi to everybody.
I bought a Radeon RX Vega 64 8 GB and yesterday I tried to install on mining rig. I must point out that until yesterday 3 RX 580 Sapphire Nitro and 1 Nvidia 1660 TI cards were installed. I removed all the cards and tried to install the VEGA 64, but the system does not see it.
Motherboard is B250 Mining Board BTC 12GPU
Where I was wrong? What do I have to do to make the system to see the card?
Thanks a lot
Check in another working PC that you might have,if it works there normally it should also work in the B250 which for me personally is one of the best mining motherboards out there.Where did you bought the card?I don't think you bought it new as they are rare to find as new nowadays so most likely you bought it used,so as I said you should check in another PC you have available and if it works there then it is time to troubleshoot the issue in B250 board but you should try it in another PC as that is the first thing to do in such case. If it works in the other PC,try to put first the card in the x16 slot and then try a 010S version riser. The motherboard isn't a new one, but it works fine with 4 RX 580. Other PC, just like B250, haven't got any PCIe x16 slot, so I have to use riser. My risers aren't 010S version, but why do you advise this version? Should I change any setting on motherboard BIOS? thanks a lot You must have a separate computer to test video cards. You don't need a PC but a motherboard, processor, memory and power supply, + any 64 GB SSD. You can buy it very cheap on AM3 socket architecture. If I buy a used video card, then I disassemble it, change the thermal paste and thermal pads as necessary, clean it from dust, test it and then install it in the mining farm.Even if you bought a video card with verification, it may be damaged during transportation. |

I recommend you use miningpoolstats and not google. For ethereumfair, I would choose ezil.me, I like its interface https://miningpoolstats.stream/ethereumfairBut if you mine in the long term, then it is better to choose a large pool, because the profit will be the same. And I would not pay attention to daily changes in profit. |

There is no KYC on testnet minig. The KYC is probably will be on mainnet. Anyway mining speed is quite poor and the reason of this network not understandable at all.
Now mining is on the testnet, but then these mining rewards will be converted to the mainnet. KYC is only needed on solo mining, if you mine on a pool, then KYC will be done by the owner of the mining pool. But there is a problem, if the mining pool does not pass KYC, then the miners will not receive rewards in the mainnet. |

Over the past few years, the crypto world has undergone numerous changes and so has cloud mining. The whole face of cloud mining has changed. Cloud mining will always be the best option to earn profits without the need to pay for equipment and related costs, and 2022 is no exception. Apart from the money making factor, by mining on the cloud platform, the risk is reduced to a great extent. And cloud mining is a profitable mining method.
In 2022, real miners capitulated. Many miners start losing at $17,000 bitcoin. How is it possible to make money on bitcoin cloud mining? But there are still price paradoxes on the market, because ASICs are very expensive if we compare payback periods, but the new halving is already at the beginning of 2024. |

I recently saw that I can make a lot of ETF monthly with just 90 Mhsh and little power consumption so I am trying this for one month or two at maximum.I started yesterday night and started to receive payouts normally and I saw that the amount of time of blocks and rewards were up to 2 hours maximum,now it has been stuck there from today morning at 6.39 AM and no rewards,of course the rewards come in my expected balance which is the equal of unconfirmed in other mining pools.Should I be worried or not as it is my first time using this pool?  I wouldn't worry too much about losing $1 https://miningpoolstats.stream/ethereumpowThere are 39 mining pools on miningpoolstats and you choose the 36th pool from the list? Did you mix up the top with the bottom? I use 2miners.com. I don't want to say that K1 is a bad pool but its 0.741220 ETHW 1 GH/s Revenue similar to 2miners.com. |
