Funny when you wrote "useless things". On one wall socket with 2 entries, I have 4 rigs so 4 power cords to plug, how do I do without at least a power strip? So FP91G you don't look how many watts you draw from your wall sockets? Not surprising that some people put fire doing mining rig. Understanding the electricity and monitoring it is super important for safety and business management.
Before starting mining, I installed new wires, bought and installed the required number of sockets. Controlling consumption with a wattmert when setting up a farm. If one of the farms consumes more electricity, then I will see increased consumption when I take data for transmission to an energy-intensive company at the end of the month. I can install a good digital voltmeter-ammeter ($ 10) on each wire and watch the readings through an online camera. But every farm I have is plugged into an online outlet. I manage all farms from my phone. I can control power consumption and remotely turn on and off the mining farm. An online smart plug costs $ 20. https://www.tp-link.com/de/home-networking/smart-plug/hs110/The link you provided in is Deutsch. The smart plug, I think you have to be cautious if you put too much Voltage it can melt. Maximum Load 16A Maximum Load Power 3.68KW https://www.tp-link.com/en/home-networking/smart-plug/hs110/#specificationsEach of my mining farm consumes less than 1 KW. Colleagues take even cheaper Chinese counterparts. |

yes like FP91G said you must provide more information to get answer. RX series from 2016-2017 years pretty old now but if they are very cheap i will buy ofcourse but not like now.people asking 500-550$ which too expensive.
 https://www.nvidia.com/30 HX (2021) 26 MH 125 W rx580 (2016-2017) 30 MH 110 W WTF That is not 2021 card. it is simply old cards p106,p104,p102 only one for 86mhs is new. Just compare these 3 same power same hashrate with p106,104,102 p106 with ddr6  These are video cards based on the Turing architecture -GeForce RTX 1660 and GeForce RTX 2000 series https://www.nvidia.com/Man, I’m just jabbering |

Server blocks are also very expensive now.
Server blocks do not work well at undervoltage,
and the power supplies that I talked about work perfectly both at an increased voltage of 240 volts, and at a reduced voltage of 180-210 volts. This is standard practice in the village.
A stabilizer is required to use server power supplies.

I hope I found the right section for this, I'm new to this forum but I'm looking for few advice from anyone who are experts at crypto mining, I want to be a passive earner from crypto mining and focus my time on other ways of making money online so I want to know if this is a good time to buy graphic cards for mining? I use Google to fine a calculator and it seems the reward is different today Vs two days ago
Wait for Ethereum to change the algorithm. Then you will have the opportunity to purchase a crypto farm inexpensively. Mining does not guarantee a constant income, for example, at the end of 2018 and in 2019, mining was unprofitable. My profit from 1 video card was 10-20 cents, with an electricity cost of 0.03 kW / h. Electricity bills can ruin you. Learn to make the correct calculations so you don't go bankrupt. |

I got a little miner rig set up in my little room. My bill came home and its through the roof. Estimate $520 in power bill.
I got 15 gpus all running some in different location and 2 inline fans. 3070 n 3080.
I gotta pay rent too. In Ca. Bill From pg and e. At least I have money left over to keep in my piggie crypto bank.
I recommend to have power meter to monitor the electricity you draw from your mining rigs. I use a 2 Power Distribution Unit (PDU), this model : https://www.amazon.ca/gp/product/B076MJMDLN/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 You have a PDU Remote Management you can use on your laptop or PC to monitor all the stats and it's connected via your LAN (WiFi). If you a buy a PDU you must be sure to buy the model for your electricity circuit for instance 120V/20A or 240V/30A. I think it's pretty vital to have that so you can be sure to stay under the 80% capacity and also the voltage sag (if your wall socket is 240V and 20A, you have to take 220V multiply by 20A which equals 4400 Watt and you apply 80% on that which is 3520 Watt which you should not go above that to stay safe and avoid voltage sag). Also with a PDU you know exactly how much you pay per day of electricity which is really important when you mine to know if you are profitable. Here for instance on my PDU Remote Management:  I entered my electricity cost, here in Québec it's 0.07 $ per Kw/h and you see on the column "Interval Cost (Unit)" it's the total cost for the day in CAD for that PDU. So I easily calculate my electricity cost like that. It's good that my electricity comes from a green source (Hydro Québec). If I was spending $ 500 on useless things, then I would not be able to recoup my equipment soon. I have had stable electricity consumption figures every month in recent years. I don't even look at the electricity meter readings. If you like to control online, then you can purchase an ammeter and a webcam, which will be directed to the ammeter and electricity meter. All costs will be less than $ 30 |

Hi bitcointalk community, I have been reading a lot about Power Supply Unit (PSU) and I don't understand why there's such pricing discrepancy. Let's take a 1300 W PSU 80+, the price goes from $517.05 CAD to $1,954.50 CAD from different makers on Newegg Canada. https://www.newegg.ca/p/pl?d=1300+Watt+power+supplySince I started to mine, I always bought EVGA PSU, never had issues. I know the efficiency is a big factor. What else, mean time between failure (MTBF) ? Thank you I didn't even think about it, but I don't buy PSUs over $ 200. EVGA PSUs come with a 3 year warranty and I use CORSAIR PSUs with a 10 year warranty. CORSAIR RMx Series (2021) RM850x CP-9020200-NA 850W ATX12V / EPS12V 80 PLUS GOLD Certified Full Modular Power Supply https://www.newegg.ca/corsair-rmx-series-rm850x-cp-9020200-na-850w/p/N82E168171392722 of these PSUs will be better than 1 single EVGA 1300W PSU and much cheaper. |

What are your electricity tariffs?
At what price are you planning to buy these video cards?
If your electricity price is less than $ 0.08 per kilowatt, then any video card will bring profit.
rx5700XT have problems with overheating memory, so you need to buy the right model. The rx5500 8gb has a worse hashrate than the rx580

I live in South Australia. Pay aud$0.36c per kw, roughly us$0.28c. My state has had the highest consistent power cost per kw in the world for almost 20yrs.
If OP is correct in his price then they take the new lead? My price is the lowest I can get in my state checked every company. Are you sure yours is lowest?
Paid aud$4300(after $3500 rebate) for 6.6kw solar with 5kw inverter, should be paid off in just over 2yrs cos high sun here. Could of gotten cheaper but went with a good company.
Don't get cheaper rates because solar just get paid aud$ 12.4c per kw feed in. Then have to buy it back at night time for triple the price
And you can buy to buy 2 houses nearby. Install solar panels in one house and use cheap electricity at night rates in the other. This is in order not to buy electricity at night at a triple price. Will this not be cheating? Then it will be even more profitable, because mining will be very expensive at night. We dont get any off peak rates so not cheaper at night same price all the time, cheapest I can get is aud$0.36c. Literally rang tons of companies and I tend to check every 3 months but nothing changes. I don't get option to buy back the power I feed in, only buy normal price per kw all the time. Other companies charge even 44c per kw here. I could get paid 15c per kw feed in but then Im paying over 40c per kw to buy it back. As for buying another house, my current house value is like $750k (plus $45k tax) and its shitty 1960 build with 1 toilet (Just the land is valued at $500k so they can charge more taxes). Australia is not cheap for anything. Just my tobacco is $122 for 50gram again the cheapest I can get (Government takes over $100). If I could move to Canada I would, Australia sucks unless you earn over $75k a year..... In russia, a good modern house of about 200 square meters and 20 ares of land can be bought for $ 100,000. Miners buy old houses for 4-5 thousand dollars to install their mining farms in them. The cost of electricity in the village (10-20 km from the city) is $ 0.025 per kilowatt. Electricity consumption limit 10,000-20,000 kWh per month. Taxes are not more than $ 30-40 per year for one such house. |

Lol shortage of electricity. I really don't understand how that works. But I'm get 40 cents peak time and about 20 cents average. I was making a bunch of profits when eth was ath. But now its crashing like a mofo. Everyday my profits gets less. Eth hashrates are down too. So I'm not sure.
I was thinking mining during a bear market But my mining profit drastically decrease also. Killing two birds n one stone.. oh well I'm a hardcore btc investor. Mine 4 yrs and earn 500k.. lol if history repeats itself.. but with some trading cus eth pow will likely end . And I have to switch to $ergo.. thats when mining is less fun. Cus of shitcoin..
Friend. If I had such electricity prices, I would not even start mining. I know that each state has its own electricity prices, but as soon as the price of Ethereum drops or Ethereum changes the algorithm, then the mass will have a huge sale of video cards. Other coins will be unprofitable at these electricity prices. |

https://miningpoolstats.stream/moneroI do not understand what you are talking about. If one pool has more than 51% hash rate, then it will be able to perform 51% attacks on the coin, but this pool will not be able to manage other transactions. Centralization means managing someone else's transactions, or at least blocking addresses. While this is not possible in the Monero blockchain.

Today Net Hashrate
ETH : 600 TH/s ~ 20.000.000 RX 570 8G
RVN : 5 TH/s ~ 384.615 RX 570 8G
ERG : 15 TH/s ~230.769 RX 570 8G
If ETH go to PoS, you will see all PoW coins become unprofitable. And 60-70% miners will left
How much of this hashrate do ASICs or fpga take? Ethereum 2.0 hasn't even been tested yet. It is possible to increase the time frame for changing the algorithm. Perhaps the developers have not yet prepared a new coin for miners Many people were mining with a profit of 20-30 cents per day from one video card. |

I have changed the thermal paste and memory pads several times. Cleaned the heat sink thoroughly and replaced the fans, but still the same problem.
I saw several times where the wrong setting of heat sink after changing thermal paste and pads caused high temperature on GPU's. You should need to be sure that the heat sinks 100% leaning on the GPU chip. you must not put a thicker thermal pad than is a gap. 7x rx580 consumption the only 580w? Are you sure? This is from mining software, right? did you measure before the complete miner machine? This is only the consumption of video chips from 7 video cards. There are no such results. Such a farm consumes about 900 watts or more from the wall. Each miner must have a wattmeter in order to check the correctness of the settings and not set lower consumption values, from which the power consumption from the wall does not change, but the video cards start to fail. |

Uninterruptible power supplies for 2-3 kilowatts are very expensive.
You can use a home backup power system that is used when designing solar-powered homes. It will be cheaper to buy the required number of batteries and configure the controller so that when the main electricity is turned off, the batteries work until the generator turns on.

Nothing is hotter than asus expedition gtx 1070 and palit gtx1060 dual. they run 72-78C with power limit 70. im so happy i sold them. i did thermal paste change pads but never got good results.
palit dual is one of the worst cooling systems on video cards. I had problems on 1080 and 2070 and other graphics cards. I managed to return one video card under a guarantee with a refund of the amount paid, and on other models I attached 80х80 fans to the radiator. philipma1957, keep us posted. I myself am afraid to buy new Nvidia video cards in stores. |

Don't expect cheap prices for video cards this year. Miners will not immediately sell video cards after the Ethereum price drop.
I think everyone will mine Ethereum as long as it is possible, because then there will never be such an opportunity.
Ethereum is one of the most promising coins on the crypto market.
