On other forum ppl report that 3080ti gives 90-95MH\s in LHR-4 mode, no data about powerdraw though

I have a 3080ti, and Im getting the same 80-ish mh/s that I was getting on NBMiner

Metroid called the crash far too soon.

In fact he claimed he bailed in Jan. Selling off at a good profit.

If he held he would be 2x that maybe 3x that.

So even if he made 1 million he should have made at least 2 or maybe 2.5 million

To be nice.  If he sold 1/2 then and 1/2 now he would be at 1.75 million vs 1 million.

Hey I fucked up with doge I had 1,000,000 coins and sold too quickly. Made about 60k I could have made 200k


This is subjective, I mean, yeah on eth would be 2x right now, price is around 2800 usd, sold around 1450 usd, so yeah in that sense yes, however in alcoins no, most altcoins I had they are actually 3x cheaper than it was when I sold, did I buy back no and I will not, I know the last bulltrap is about to happen and that will top around 79k on btc, on eth, I thought it would never get higher than 2k because eth is still eth 1.0, last year it was 100 usd, now 2800, that is bs, so this is a fool's game what they are doing to eth and that will end bad just like 2018, eth crashed 94% in 2018, now might be less but will still crash hard, thieves will not hold eth for very long, they buy wait a little then sell, most are not long holders, anyway, if this was eth 2.0 then yeah but is not, so I still dont believe they will take this much higher than what it is at moment, I know will be a last bulltrap, and whales will take profit at some point and when they do, others will too, and eth 2.0 to happen, will be at least 3 to 5 years and that is what I think will be the start of the next bullrun. So my advice is, do not buy now, wait the crash and if you did not sell then sell most of it and keep some to sell at top because is close to the top already.

About doge, I dont think you made a bad decision, that thing had already rose a lot, so you took profit, now you cant accept the profit you took, you need to work on that because is bad for your head, trust me. Sell at top is close to impossible because it will stay there for only few minutes then going to hehell, do not wait for the top, sell when your target is hit.

and to all you trolls, crypto rises a lot and crashes a lot, so be very careful, only hold what you are willing to lose. I myself still holding some eth and some altcoins that I'm willing to lose, lets see where it will take to.

If you sold and made a profit, dont ever look back and say "what if". Making a profit from a trade/sale is a good thing and something to never, ever be ashamed of
3  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: new asic ETH miners is coming. and Trent.eth just twittered! on: May 01, 2021, 02:58:41 AM

My thoughts are eth will fuck it up much as they did back in 2017-2018.


Agreed. There will be unforeseen issues trying to do something they planned to do 2-3 years from now, in 6 months.

In the meantime, people need to stop paying 3-4x MSRP for gpu's, and ignore Metroid's crystal ball as well. It's batting .001% these past 5 months  Tongue

1. I'd take a look at HiveOS if you arent married to Windows. It really is pretty easy. Be sure to look at either Phoenix Miner or TRex

2. Ethermine would be my choice. If you go with HiveOS, then the Hive pool is pretty solid too
5  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Wattmeter for mining rigs ??? on: March 09, 2021, 10:24:54 PM

I have different wattmeters and different smart plugs with wattmeter function.
I m so confused lately because all of them shows different values Sad

This is the one which i hae been using for 5 years. It work well.
https://www.banggood.com/Bakeey-16A-Plug-in-Digital-Wattmeter-LCD-Display-Power-Meter-Electricity-Usage-Socket-Adapter-Electric-Consumption-Monitor-EU-Plug-p-1643668.html?rmmds=myorder&cur_warehouse=CN&ID=530036

This is the new one i have bought latelt. And this is the startf of the problem. It shows +150W than the first one around 1600W/hour.
https://www.banggood.com/EU-Plug-Intelligent-AC-Power-Meter-Wattmeter-Socket-Billing-Socket-Power-Monitor-p-1815410.html?cur_warehouse=CN&rmmds=search

For example:
First one shows 1650W, second one shows 1800W Smiley

This is the best smart plug i have used. It shows +20W than the first one. But the warranty is so bad. I have no warranty for my country.
https://www.banggood.com/Broadlink-Wifi-Smart-Plug-SP3S-Power-Meter-Monitor-16A-Timer-Socket-Outlet-Remote-Wireless-Control-p-1249628.html?cur_warehouse=CN&ID=43101&rmmds=search

This is the worse smart plug i have used. It shows +75W than the first one. It sometimes can be out of order after electrcity is gone and come back. But the warranty is perfect, they send the new one.
https://www.swapp.com.tr/tr/urun/s-link-swapp-sl-01-16-amper-akilli-priz-wifi-tuya-destekli

I have also several smart plugs which all of them shows different values. I have no any idea which one shows correct values.
There is no any difference if i use lower than 700W, all wattmeters shows the real usage.
Help me to choose a perfect wattmeter.


I'm in the US, but the most popular one and generally considered to be one of the best, if not the best, is this one https://www.amazon.com/P3-P4400-Electricity-Usage-Monitor/dp/B00009MDBU/ref=sr_1_2?crid=3U1U6HNHSHAVH&dchild=1&keywords=kill+a+watt+power+meter&qid=1615328600&sprefix=kill+a+%2Caps%2C177&sr=8-2. It's the Kill-A-Watt

The look to have an international version that might work?
6  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: XMR RandomX mining with Ryzen 3900x on: March 03, 2021, 11:04:53 PM
I'd imagine its because when you run the short benchmark, the cpu boosts instantly due to the load and voltage, and it gives a good score. However, the all core boost is not sustainable without crazy cooling and voltage, as you're finding out when you actually run the miner.

What type of cooler do you have? What's your infinity fabric clock set to? These are all factors

Edit: Also, are you running it as admin?
7  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: When to exit on: February 20, 2021, 03:49:23 AM
I must agree with Metroid, I think we're in a bubble as well. Things are just up and up and up. There hasnt been a correction in months. We're overdue for a correction and overdue correction's hit hard.

Is this time different? Yeah, for Bitcoin, and maybe Eth due to DeFi, but everything else is B-U-B-B-L-E.

Eth mining will be pulling way back and probably sooner vs later. What's going to take it's place? Good question. Something will be there, but to Eth's power and price? TBD.

Now isnt a good time to totally exit, but it is a good time to lock in some crazy profit
8  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Tuning my P104-100's. Low hash rates? on: February 17, 2021, 04:24:10 AM
There are just so many factors to Windows mining like this between BIOS settings, cpus, memory sticks, and old school Windows 7 pro. You should look at Windows 10 to possibly get an apples to apples comparison since Windows 7 is EOL. If you have a couple of spare flash drives, giving HiveOS/Linux a shot in the short term might help even things out?

Anyway, yes, Nicehash supports KawPow natively. You'd just need to let it benchmark assuming you're running Nicehash.exe.
9  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: how many GPUs will this board support for mining ? on: February 13, 2021, 01:38:54 AM
You're going to need risers, but if you had 6 risers, I see no reason it wouldn't support 6 gpus? However, without risers, the gpus will take up multiple slots, so you'll likely only get 2-3 cards depending on which cards you try to use
10  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: I have $6000 to start mining, what should I buy? on: February 04, 2021, 10:51:48 PM
Invest in DeFI, Or literally any good project. You'll never make your 6K back in time if you're just starting now. GPU, PSU, and other Hardware prices are through the roof. During Bullmarkets you DO NOT BUILD mining rigs. You buy the coin which will make you'll more money in a month than a mining rig will paying itself back. That's my personal opinion. I'm a big miner, but I started during the first bullmarket in 2017 and never stopped even during the bear market of 2018-20.

With ETH finally getting Phase 0 and moving to phase 1.5 in 2021/22 Personally the mining game's over now. On top of that ASIC on ETH that are insanely powerful are coming online this year.
Here we are again, people are packing 40 pieces of graphic cards right in front of me in a store to mine Ethereum and you are here saying you can't make your ROI back? It only takes 4 month to get ROI back on a single gtx1660 super today, since you said you build your rig in 2017? Good, my question is did you make back your ROI or NoT?

Here we are again. People thinking of buying over-inflated priced GPUs like the 1660s when ETH POS was initially launched last year with a full move away from PoW thinking they'll make all their money back GPU-mining. I'm going to put this super easy.

$400, 1660 SUPER(MSRP was 230~)( plus you can't even buy these anymore there not in production). Will make about $1 - $1.50~ a day(accounting for a full system setup at 200w with a single 1660s@30mh/s, 2.5 ETH BR). That's a 400 day ROI. We're in a Bullmarket, Bull markets don't last. This is the third Crypto bull market I've been in. If you/he puts that in a good project he'll easily make $100-200 in just a couple of months.

Did I ROI?

Yes, and well beyond it now. However, As I said I mined during the bear market and suffered a lot of set-backs and pain. The Black-swan flash crash of 2018 and then in 2020 basically wiped me TWICE. In 2020 I just about gave up on everything but I worked at my normal job and held, kept mining. Last year I purchase 588's for around $65 a piece on Auction from liquated mining farms.

So my question WHAT ARE YOU going to do when your mining AT A LOSS because a 'flash-crash' or markets tanks for sometimes months on end? I saw it at the end of 2018. I'll probably see it again at the end of 2021.
Gtx 1660 super has 6gb VRAM, before that 6gb VRAM runs out it will take 3 to 4 years, you are bewitched if you failed to get your ROI back in this period of time even if you can only get 0.80$ from gtx1660 super mining 24 hours a day, what about those asics that are only given access to 4.5gb memory?? Before that time comes you should have get 2x your ROI or even 3x, do some math

What does VRAM have to do with it? ETH is going PoS long before 6GB memory. On top of that Network Dif will increase the "ROI" when the new 2GH/s ETH ASICs have been unleashed to regular buyers this June this year. Those ASICs have 8GB memory.

The Name of the game is "buy low, sell high" Same goes for Crypto-mining when in bear markets pick-up GPUs/ASICs during Bullmarkets cashout coins turning into $$$$. People eating up GPUs and ASICs at insane prices are not thinking what happens in a year. They only see the $$$(greed) of now.

Throwing in my own $.02, I've got to agree. Avoid buying hardware right now being it's all market up 50%-100%. Invest in DeFi.

Maybe worst case, go for 50% DeFi and buy a rig with a card for the other 50%. See which one gets you further in the next 3-6 months. Eth will be on it's way out soon and something else will need to pick up where it left off. There doesnt seem to be anything obvious on the horizon, so wait for the hardware prices to cool off, then buy the hardware if you insist on a mining rig
11  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Nvidia 1070 mining program on: February 03, 2021, 01:41:33 AM
You might just want to try Nicehash, since it's quite user friendly. Just input a wallet and go. Once you see how that works, then branch out to using a dedicated mining program like Phoenix Miner, Trex, etc
12  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Any interest in group buy for a Ryzen mining motherboard from ASRock? on: December 03, 2020, 12:13:04 AM
ASRock has let me know that their minimum order size would be 500, oof. Totally understandable from their perspective, but it could be hard to find that much interest. Definitely continue to let me know if you would want in, though.

In the meantime, I'm reaching out to possible retail partners and mining/learning/passrecovery farms. Without such a partner, I don't see us reaching that number.

If you need to verify my personal details or otherwise establish trust, feel free to PM me with any questions you might have. My own interest is just wanting a couple of these.

500? Yikes. Thanks for the update
13  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Any interest in group buy for a Ryzen mining motherboard from ASRock? on: December 02, 2020, 09:47:15 PM
Two sets of newbies. Makes it looks as if this could be not legit.

Would be nice if it is available and legit.

I would want 4 of them.

True, I am a newbie, but I've been around for a few years. Even have some trades, but nothing with feedback showing. I just dont post very often at all.
14  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Any interest in group buy for a Ryzen mining motherboard from ASRock? on: December 02, 2020, 02:00:45 AM
I'd say Im interested. Not 100% committed, because it'd be a bit of a parts upgrade for me (I dont have a spare set of DDR4 nor M2 SSD around), but I am willing to listen and possibly add my name to the list if you garner enough interest? I am in North America too

At the same time, a new account with 1 post is going to scare some people off
15  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Are the Nvidia 3000 Series the BEST GPUs for MINING EVER?! RTX 3070, 3080, 3090 on: November 28, 2020, 01:14:23 AM
OK, so  I returned my Gigabyte Eagle OC because it had a reduced hashrate.
Since I couldn't get any other card I was forced getting a Gigabyte Vision OC 3080 (it's for my gaming rig)

It seems that unfortunately this one also has the same problem as the Eagle and Gaming variant. As a matter of fact I think it's the exact same card as the Gaming OC except the design of the cooler.

So don't buy any Gigabyte cards if you plan on using them for mining.

In a week or so I expect to receive EVGA XC3 Ultra cards. Hope I will have better luck with them!


I have one of these as well. I replaced the front thermal pads with a $8 2mm thermal pad from Amazon. Absolutely 0 issues since then and Im up at 93 mh/s at 210 watts.

Gigabyte cheaped out and used a very slimey thermal pad for the man pads
16  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: What would the repeal of Net Neutrality mean for mining in the US? on: December 13, 2017, 10:45:21 PM
More than likely, not much. Mining doesnt cause a whole bunch of internet traffic but it does use a whole bunch of electricity.

The FCC vote will really only affect internet traffic so there shouldn't be much to worry about unless you're a big YouTube/Netflix/Hulu/etc streamer
17  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Any word on amd vega hash rates? on: October 30, 2017, 05:40:57 PM
Hi guys,
Someone try new drivers 17.10.3?
I am also curious if someone prepare new power tables.

Don't touch them. They work at 1100h per card. Also cannot be undervolted. And I had to reinstall windows after because neither DDU nor AMD uninstaller could get rid of them and the blockchain drivers could not be installed after (lost a few hours sleep because of them).

I used them, switched to the blockchain driver, and then switched back to 17.10.3. Undervolting also works fine. I just use Wattman myself and dont get into the PP tables. I think you had an issue somewhere. I did not nor have I seen a lot of issues popping up about these drivers.

Although the hash rates are still nowhere near the blockchain driver, I can pull 1200-1300h/s. However, I use my Vega mostly for gaming

I'm trying out 3.2 and using the profit switch option. However, right this second musicoin is the most profitable. I have music set to "no" and do not have a server listed, but the algo keeps trying to mine it. Therefore CM fires up and it gives an error of not being able to parse the config.

Can you fix the yes/no options under pool and address editor? 

Yes i will add these button works within 1 day. (During the day later..)

because you did not set the Address Editor for that forker?!
every worker has different "Address Profile"

Correct. No address and no pool. Both fields are 100% blank. I can give you my access key if need be
