I guess that's the traditional miner path. I wonder if these innovators had that mindset;

Open-frame is cheaper, anyone can build a open-frame; it easily be assembled with PVC or wood using the width x length of the motherboard. The PSU can be below it, illustrating a type of oil rig structure conception.

Enclosed-frame can be crafted with wood, with an opening on the side of it just big enough for the intake wall-fan/filter, a door big enough for troubleshooting, and slits for the GPUs. Inside and under the GPU slits are cheap aluminum shelve mounts or 2x4s that allow the GPU risers to rest/mount. 2 or 3 more custom mounts for the PSU and the motherboard to operate. Any blower type GPU would be idle for this build. Also, an exhaust fan would mount above the intake wall fan or direct the hot air inside the house, building, fish tank, etc.

I highly suggest getting in contact with Elite Mining Inc. https://elitemininginc.com/immersion/
They're a professional staff i.e. management/HR/installers/developers and they're all very efficient in what they do. They have partnership programs you might be interested in if you have the means to do so. Wink
Good luck!  Grin
5  Economy / Collectibles / Re: [INTEREST/AUCTION] Magic The Gathering (MTG) Cards ~3000 on: May 21, 2022, 03:32:06 PM
I would have interest in participating in an auction for some magic cards; I used to play as a kid, but never really had any cards of my own.

It would surprise me if there wasn't others with a similar interest around here.
I guess it depends on how big your imagination is imho. Building different kind of decks can be fun once you get into it. Players of all ages play, trade, & compete at the local card shops around the world. Artists and developers are still creating interesting monsters, lore, and abilities. The new set Kamigawa: Neon Dynasy for example is a Neo-Tokyo, Samurai, Cyberpunk themed set with amazing land art.
A new format called Pioneer, came out 2019: https://magic.wizards.com/en/formats/pioneer

Sorry no sMerit  Cheesy
Thank you kindly.

not very healthy.

but a lot depends on the pcb board heat levels.

ie 100c on the board may off gas vocs.

have fun detecting it.

quality voc meters are costly. 400 usd or more.

Can you link a quality one?

I found a voc meter for 200usd, it's called a BLATN BR-smart-128s: https://blatn.com/products/indoor-air-quality-monitor-br-smart-128s-co2-pm2-5-tvoc-hcho

OP asked if they're reliable projects.  Well which ever PoW you mine, it generates heat. If it generates heat between 80-90 degrees in a room you can germinate seeds fast and effectively. In result you can create transplanter blocks for local farmers while supporting a network mining blocks.

For me the asrock pro btc was really good, danno if now there is an ipdate version for the new socket
Asrock X370 Pro BTC+ // AMD chipset driver update was on 11/30/2021.

I agree, troubleshooting is much easier to target the problem i.e. from overclocking or a bad riser.
I suggest a B250 with a EVGA SuperNOVA Platinum 1600watt PSU or 2x EVGA Gold 600 W imho.
In addition, power overload causes the wires to melt the insulation that can then lead to a fire.

Nice site!!  Wink You covered a lot of information on your post but just a minor detail. At the bottom of the web-page, under the 'Information' section; the links direct customers to pages that are in Polish text, can we have a drop-down menu to select from a list of languages?
12  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Rx 570 Sapphire single fan Ubuntu driver problem on: May 16, 2022, 09:03:20 AM
Woo! Glad you got it backed up before abandoning ship.  Wink I'm not sure what happened but it sounds frustrating to say the least.
Maybe install POP!_OS the AMD version if you want to try that card again. Also consider Debian 11 you can choose what desktop-
environment(s) you want or create a minimal base system and install only the necessary packages & dependencies.
You said "never again with AMD cards in Ubuntu" but I hope later on you can get it to work on your test rig.  Grin
13  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Rx 570 Sapphire single fan Ubuntu driver problem on: May 15, 2022, 06:22:45 AM
Some distros have all the required dependencies already pre-installed i.e. POP!_OS.

I'm not too sure with AMD cards but try this:

   sudo dpkg -i --force-overwrite filename

Maybe the file got corrupted while downloading or transferring it to a storage device.

Also try asking 'e97':

It's just my 2cents, I'm going based on previous events and the market history. When the market takes a hit bitcoin usually recovers first. Followed by ETH and the alts, generally speaking. I like the Polygon project because of the network's use case right now and how it participates on taking some of the load off the main net.
16  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: best coins to buy in bear market on: May 09, 2022, 04:32:42 AM
The Polygon network has a lot of potential, same with projects like Avalanche and Polkadot, they're all at a discount currently. As mentioned before bitcoin and eth are always good to have imho, especially btc.

Also the gamers are aware of the merge and are working the market in-conjunction.

Are A2000s getting any cheaper?

Thanks for the info about the Translation Lookup Buffer (TLB) issue.

Driver version 390.144

Tried PhonenixMiner 5.4c from the other thread, tried -straps 2 but didnt work. Still needed ethlargement and got to 37 Mh/s

Using  nvidia-settings  version 390.144

Tried the latest driver a while ago and got really poor hashrate so stuck with what works..

maybe its time to try 4XX?

debian apt has 460.91.03 as latest
I would try asking around the Linux community, if you come around any tips or anything let us know.

I like this guide; https://miningchamber.com/gpu-mining/gtx-1080-ti-mining-settings/ and get a https://nzxt.com/product/kraken-g12 cooling setup followed by a shunt mod  Cheesy Just kidding..

Have you done this;

$ sudo vim /etc/apt/sources.list

## For more packages add contrib non-free at the end of each line
     i.e.
     deb http://deb.debian.org/debian/ buster main contrib non-free

$ sudo apt purge nvidia-* && sudo apt update

$ sudo apt install nvidia-cuda-toolkit && sudo reboot

A blue screen will pop-up, read what it says, hit [ok]

I figure the current nvidia-cuda-toolkit would include the latest driver: https://salsa.debian.org/nvidia-team/nvidia-cuda-toolkit/-/commits/debian/11.2.2-3+deb11u1
