Do you have any cards for sale?
Not anymore. |

Tahiti that does 300+ on equihash does 600+ on cryptonight.

Nobody sells 10MB any more (except perhaps as ancient used gear).
Nobody sells 100MB anymore, or if they do price is the same as 1000MB. By the cheapest you can find, case closed? |

It's not required but it helps for cards over 200w. Amd 290/390/295x2/Duo/Vega, nvidia 980ti/ 1080ti.

You are ASSUMING 5e - a lot of businesses museums have 3 for wiring, not even 5 much less 5e or 6.
We need to edit the subject, it should be "10Mbps, 100Mbps or 1Gbps ethernet router" (: |

I once thought it was a good exchange
It was. Margin trading with cryptos only... |
|
|

As I already pointed out, it's often a case that the WIRING won't support Gigabit
Have you tried what 5e can do? The other factor is that a lot of the time good 100MB gear can be had for PENNIES ON THE DOLLAR
I am dumping them all the time. Like throwing them away for free. They are so 2003. |

how's your cryptonite.conf? I got those before wallet was fixed, most likely wallet.dat is corrupted. Dump keys, sync from scratch and import keys should do it. |

Phone as an modem sharing connection to old laptop that works as a router does basic mining very well too, I have tried.
Question remains, if 100Mbps router costs $40 and 1Gbps router $50, what is the reason to save that $10?

I'm not sure how much longer that will last, but might be longer than many folks think - 100 MBPS is plenty for most business usage, a LOT of companies are wired for Cat 5 (which does NOT support Gigabit for anything other than very SHORT runs), and they just don't have incentive to "upgrade" when their wiring would take tons of money to upgrade.
The savings are in places that have installed base to deal with - most small miners have little IF ANY incentive to worry about "installed base of gear and wiring".
Yes but when gigabit router is backwards compatible and future proofed why buy ancient hardware if price is almost the same? Even if you don't need it? |

From summer 2014 it wasn't profitable to mine anymore. GPU mining was a pointless endeavour until a few months ago.
Nvidia was profitable all the time, sometimes profits were quite thin but it was profitable. Amd mining was negative from summer 2014 to summer 2015. First wave of eth goldrush was the first half of 2016, that's when so called "ethbabies" were born. Second wave was first half of 2017. just buy zec or eth and wait few weeks and enjoy minimum 2x investment.
You can also short (not zec), easy 10% x leverage daily, every 10€ yesterday is 15€ today with 5:1 leverage. Problem is that you need to know what you are doing. So many different ways to earn some € @cryptomarkets. |

Thats why I based all my recent rigs on AMD Ryzen processors - unbeatable in price / performance ratio compared to Intel.
If I had to build new rigs with the latest tech I would go ryzen, no question about that. Opterons are doing pretty well too. edit: sorry for the OT, i7 thread... |

Do they still sell 100Mbps routers?
If you are running local network behind that router your rig to rig speeds are router limited, 1Gbps network is disk speed limited with hdd and router limited with sdd.
For mining only, sure, 100Mbps goes but where are the savings?

Add this and chart looks even worse for non-usd miners:  |

X5 performed very bad, just about 200h/s, it is much less than i7 in cryptonight algorithm.
X5000 series is too old, also some xeons are only rebranded i7's (or other way around). Look at the size of L3 cache, more cache=more threads=more speed. Yep, boost on all active cores does the trick. compare hash rate of i7 vs the hash rate of intel dual xeon e5 ? which of them is more profitable ? or it is much better to buy an intel pentium gxxxx series rig with sinlge 1070 or 1080 8gb gpu.
Dual xeon mb filled with large cache cpu's and hawaii gpu's gives you most cryptonight hash for the buck. Not saying it's the most profitable way to go but if you have cheap electricity, find those parts cheap and want to mine xmr then why not. Nvidia gpu's don't shine in cryptonight, their hash earns better in compute heavy algos. |

What was supposedly high profit in the Feb-Apr 2016 timeframe, even in the same BALLPARK as the last 4 months?
Eth starting it's first run which ended to dao + dcr launch 2/2016. 20MH on eth/ 2GH on dcr made you an easy 5€/ day. Cards that didn't scale well on eth (980, 980ti) made better profits on dcr. Also eth launch 8/2015 was really good (tahiti 10€/ day) but price tanked quite soon. |
