Because why not. I’m a cool Canadian guy who needs an ASIC miner and I blah blah blah blah blah .. who the fuck am I kidding? I’m a cheap bastard and would like a free $100

Ok good to know I am new to the game and recently started getting access to cards in bulk.
My understanding is getting cards in the 100's and 1000's qty is not that easy and to do so there is a premium.
So do appreciate the feedbak if the prices you are seeing are for 1 and 2 qty then again maybe I am in the wrong forum or maybe I way priced out even for bulk?
I wouldn’t say you’re in the wrong forum. You’re on an enthusiast forum. The people here have their fingers on the pulse of this business constantly and are looking for deals. The price that you’re asking is closer to eBay and Amazon pricing, which you’re not going to get here, regardless of quantity. A couple questions: Are you willing/able to sell 1/2/5/10 or only in lots of 100? What are you trying to do? Do you have a price structure in mind? ie, 100 is $x/card, 10 is $y/card, 5 is $z per card type of idea.

Even $1250 CAD is around $975USD .. that’s still much too high for used cards with no warranty

Just wanted to put an update here. I contacted OP and made an offer for 6 cards originally. We communicated mainly through email. Offer was accepted. I then asked if he would add another card to my list and made another offer. We agreed on a price for a total of 7 GPUs. He made a PayPal invoice and I paid it immediately. The goods were shipped and I received tracking info right away. I received cards today, with all of my cards boxed up perfectly. No issues at all. Great guy to deal with. ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=http%3A%2F%2Fi1319.photobucket.com%2Falbums%2Ft669%2Fspideysteve%2FIMG_1125_zpsvcrmv7si.jpg&t=663&c=nh3ACS7R0sfJ_g)

IMO .. and I am certainly in no way ready to make such large purchases .. but the only way I would do so would be to meet in person and see the goods myself

OP has not replied on this thread for a couple days now.
Several direct questions have been asked with no answers ... red flags here

I confirm the order with this member. I just found out we have a more competitive price on MOBO than GPUs. So if there's a need of MOBO, you can contact me as well. Thanks.
Which mobo do you have access to?

The prices especially for the 1080 ti's seem too good to be true. Even used cards on ebay are not this cheap.
The dude could probably sell 1080ti's all day on amazon for $1,000 at this point.
That may be so, but he does seem honest with refunding people who weren’t happy with the service they were receiving.

1972 is the correct answer.
We can all stop guessing now LOL

Craziest thing I’ve heard of!
But I will take a guess
1976

Sent you a PM with my email
|
|
|
Are you accepting other forms of payment? Such as PayPal etc ? Preferred currency (BTC, LTC, ETH)?
Ship to Canada? (I would accept all customs/duty fees if yes)
|
|
|
Do you have multiple units or selling just one?

Exactly what he said ... That's what I was getting at.
There seem to be lots of confusion so my reply was more adding info that may help some people than aimed specifically at you. As for what i know that 220-240v 40a are 3 wires plug and cable, which are 2 hot wire and 1 ground wire. Each hot wire are still only 20a. 15a or 20a are normal outlet in most home in the US, which can hanle 1800/2400w. I will reserve 20% of the load for safety due to if you are running the power consistently over 3 hours. so you are talking about 1440/1920w per a breaker line (not each outlet).
With your kitchen 240v that really don't give you much if you running a 6-8gpu rig 1k-1.2kw. which only allow you run 2 rigs or 3 max. BTW most American home power line are 100a cable from outside, apartment that depend could be 100 or 200a. you really can't setup like mining farm, because you will max out your power line after 4 rigs that take 1kw+ each system. Unless you not using any electricity at home, like Microwave, AC, Ranger, Fridge bla bla bla that draw power as well.
No. While 240v 40a is 3 or 4 wires, both hots are 40A, but at 120v, the ground and optionally the neutral are there but not any different from usual. Two 120v 20a give you 240v 20a, not 40a. Phil is correct as usual. This is incorrect. 240V is 2 hot and a bonded conductor, commonly called the ground. There is no neutral. A 4 wire system is 3 phase - 2 hot, 1 neutral, 1 bonded conductor (ground). Commonly used in commercial buildings, not typical for residential. Due to 3 phases, you get the standard 120V phase to ground (or neutral) and 208V phase to phase.

Certainly don't just buy a "adapter" and use a standard surge protector with it, because the plug fits. Standard surge protectors are rated at 15A, in the USA at least. ... You're talking multiple rigs anyway, right? So you're going to want a PDU. Spend the money on it, before you blow everything up.
And as we've seen in this very thread ... Electricians don't know everything.
I'm planning to buy this adapter : https://www.amazon.ca/Conntek-P1450650-Generator-250-Volt-Adapter/dp/B00SSQIYLUand a 40 amp PDU to distribute the power and not blow anything up lol I'll be using around 3500+Watts. I'll talk with an electrician just in case... thanks for your help. What you have posted is a 50A. Your oven, as most in North America are, is 40A. That one won’t work. Also, what are you planning? Do you want to power multiple PSUs with this one 40A oven receptacle? If so, then most definitely you will need a PDU for that. Do you want to power your PSUs with 240V ? Then that is also doable, but not in that current configuration. Definitely have an electrician check and explain to him in detail what you want.

I’m an electrician. It’s defintiely doable. Just get the right cord which plugs in to your oven receptacle and then the correct adapters for you PSUs and you should be good.
As in a 40A 240V PDU? Since I’ve never done it myself, I can only guess yes. The oven plug is 240V 40A so that would make sense. However, I would suggest get an electrician over to double check before flipping on the switch. You pay for my flight there and I’ll gladly come check it out for you. ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif)

p104 4gb 180w 0.75 kh/s cryptonight 1.08 mh/s neoscrypt 39 mh/s eth 524 sol/s
I found a group buy for these today, for about $720 CAD each, minimum order of 6. I guess I'll grab them since there's nothing in stores and my mining expert is very sad with only 6 cards. Thanks for the info here, it helps a lot. The guys buying/selling them are of course noobs and I can't trust their numbers until I found some more here.
Nice to know you could grab some GPUs. your testing performance with Equihash is really nice, almost the same with 1070 Ti. I dont know why my test for ZEC just achieved only 470 sol/s. But I plan to mine ETH, so it's not problem ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif) I didn't benchmark it myself, just summarizing the info I've found from multiple sources. There's a video on youtube where the cryptonight and equihash numbers came from, here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SOXc35DiAbMInteresting. Where you located in Canada and if the price includes delivery and taxes?
I can buy cards cheaper, even Nvidia increased pricing for $100 pet p104 recently. Just hassle with customs and delivery.
Hopefully, it works out as I really would like a few of these to put in my stupid asus mining expert motherboard. It basically requires mining cards to get over 13 cards working at once. Can’t you put 13 nvidia cards and 6 AMD cards? I read this somewhere, just can’t find the article right now. I’m interested because I’ve got this mobo being delivered tomorrow.

How about a quick review here? Kinda like a pre-post ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif)

Awesome video. One concern .. at about 30 seconds (roughly) there is your electrical panel behind you on the wall. Please, for safety’s sake, put the panel cover back on! Would really suck to get accidentally zapped from that thing.
