Very cool glad to see it coming along!

Not sure what you're asking - Nicehash you just download it - enter your wallet address and click start benchmark, it will benchmark and start mining (check start mining after benchmark). Super simple.

Better have some cheap electric - that's like 600w for 4 cards doing 600 H/s - ouch

Of course ANYTHING is possible.

You could find one lying in the street or a crackhead could be selling a card for super cheap... anything is possible.

best of luck. that's what i pay for my gpu's after tax

Why would it matter if it's even 100k per GPU - give me a bitching hash rate, I'll buy it.

In less than a month I've set up (by myself) over 100 rigs. All personal use, I don't build rigs to sell so don't ask.

# 1 problem # 1 problem #1 problem is always the power supply.

Pay attention to the amount of VGA connectors a PSU gives you. If you're running 1080Ti's like I am, it's EXTREMELY IMPORTANT. Even if the PSU is rated at 1500w - if you don't have the correct amount of VGA ports or cables, you aren't running shit.
It's great to have a 1000w PSU then only be able to run 3 GPU's because they didn't supply enough cables. I have no issues returning cheap crap. Fry's and microcenter literally knows me by name now and both hate me. I don't care. Don't sell cheap crap, I won't be returning a lot of cheap crap back to you.

I'm mining and not converting - it's a risk we're willing to take - if it pays out it be be a nice doubling of mining earnings so we don't mind.

For lower TDP we're actually thinking of running at lower 50-60%tdp but that reduces earnings as well.

Let's say you're running 80A of cards - roughly 37 1080Tis

@75% we're roughly at 25 KH/s @ 80A
@50% we're roughly at 17 KH/s @ 57A

That's about a 3k loss so we'll be running everything at 75%

If we do the same 80A @ 50% TDP it would require 13 more cards and NET about 2k/mo more, but 13 1080Ti's would cost around 10k so 5mo ROI @ current rates for the increase in cards (not counting base of Rig so basically add another $125 per 1080Ti)

Threadjack? nooo way - i was asking for you, because I new that you were thinking about doing it yourself because they're impossible to get in your country!

EvilMonkey - let's get us some risers now shall we

I've read 70's is fine.

disclaimer: I'm reckless

I have some cards that run @80c - which is pretty much every POS MSI Armor I have so I could care less about those - but they've been at 80-85 24/7 the past month - since they have 12mo warranty and I've got spare cards in case they go down All is well. Every good Jew always has multiple spares - I'm a good Jew

I can't find quantity 2,000 for $1 each on ebay. Cheapest on ebay is like $5.50

Alibaba is like $3.

Anyone know where I can get those for cheaper?

I was invoiced directly and invoice was $1 per piece that seller was getting them at - but I couldn't source the company. I need about 200 of them but wouldn't mind buying a few thousand to have on hand.

None of the guys from alibaba have replied to us either which is weird since their price is even triple or more what I saw the invoice was for.

I was going to buy those add2psu connector adapters but honestly i said why bother - I have a few dozen that I just jumped the pins on the PSU so they're powered all the time - I know many probably would advise against this but they've been fine for a month now so I'll just keep them that way. Since they're just powering GPUs and risers so far there has been no issue with them.

I'm slowly replacing them all with EVGA 1600w PSUs but not sure if I really want to replace the rest.

Well not to dump on everyone here but 99.9% of the people here for some reason use axial fans - which are great for low pressure gp applications but honestly if you want to exhaust a bunch of heat, you need inline fans - the same ones they use for growing weed.

You think a 100 kW grow room gets cooled with axial fans? Hell no. You'd come back to a whole lot of dead plants lol.

Axial fans are used, but to move air around the room, inline fans used to exhaust the heat.

Rule of thumb is about 200CFM per 1000w

And no, not that worthless 8,000CFM rating on the 20" axial - 200CFM on a inline fan

So I would say a 6" or 8" inline fan, I would go with bigger like 8" if you can handle it - it will make less noise - you can also get a duct muffler which will significantly reduce the noise - trust me these fans can be loud. But they move a ton of air/heat.

I still have bad memories with coinbase - assholes stole a few dozen BTC from me so I'll never use an exchange connected to my bank ever again.

I have no issues withdrawing locally or even hitting DarkNet for cash deliveries.

Very nice - do you guys have enterprise edition installed or were you able to get it done using just pro version? think i want to test this out myself with a 32gb stick

lol - feeling a bit self entitled are we.
