i am running it inside smos/linux pointing at nicehash, I don't like that it shows 8 miners on an eight card board not a sum of all eight cards https://www.nicehash.com/miner/1JdC6Xg3ajT3rge3FgPNSYYFpmf53VbtjeYes Equihash 348.15 Sol/s 0 Sol /s (0%) 256 112 USA Yes Equihash 464.21 Sol/s 0 Sol /s (0%) 256 112 USA Yes Equihash 565.75 Sol/s 0 Sol /s (0%) 256 112 USA Yes Equihash 464.21 Sol/s 14.51 Sol /s (3.03%) 256 112 USA Yes Equihash 381.81 Sol/s 0 Sol /s (0%) 256 112 USA Yes Equihash 420.69 Sol/s 0 Sol /s (0%) 256 112 USA Yes Equihash 449.7 Sol/s 0 Sol /s (0%) 256 112 USA Yes Equihash 536.74 Sol/s 0 Sol /s (0%) 256 112 USA I plan to point five 8 card boards this will mean 40 workers I do not like this can this be fixed? ebwf does not do this it shows 1 worker for the 8 card mobo. I realize it could be nicehash smos dstm so I will start with dstm since nicehash smos ebwf shows 1 board for 8 cards any one using dstm with an eight card board showing as eight workers

I'm having the same issue with nvOC, so we can rule out smos being the culprit. https://www.nicehash.com/miner/3HQMKEJT88ZdGLtJAZyRYA6EacknELcbbjI threw this little table together using dstm stats and some custom commands within nvOC. Handy reference for the various flavors of current gen nvidia GPUs since I run a mix of just about all of them. The big looser is the 1050Ti's for sure. Check out the max power limit on that Zotac 1080Ti ArcticStorm in miner05. 432 watts No wonder I have to run it as 230W just to get it to "wake up".

yeah I am liking the water block 1080 ti's as they all go to 700+ sols
I am not sure I want in my case
27 19 6
52 separate workers in three accounts.
as that is what I will be at once I setup for the winter.

Little update on the D1800 BTC progress, i got it finally to recognize and allocate resources to all 6 x 1080ti's finally, but i think i hit a roadblock on my PSU, i have a 450watt EVGA PSU i picked up cheap around black friday for $9.95 shipped after rebate and apparently it doesnt have enough juice to run more than 4 GPU's, as soon as i start mining with all 6 the PSU shuts off, i tried 5 same thing happened, i even tried running 6 @ 50% tdp as soon as i start mining the computer shuts off instantly as soon as it loads up, but as soon as i disable 2, i can mine with 4 even at 110% tdp without any power issues.... since the real load at that point is on the server PSU
The PSU im using, i am using 2 connectors from each string on the mobo, im guessing im overloading the peripheral power bar possibly...

even at 50% TDP that's almost 800w just for the GPUs my friend.

Anybody notice what XMR did the last couple of hours? Crazy it went over $300 a couple places! I jumped in an transferred a few over to bittrex where it was the highest of the 3 exchanges i am on and converted a few to Tether. Interesting that there was about 10-12% spread between bittrex and Polo, so sending to bit was a no-brainer, especially since i was just converting to USDT. I also dumped a little bit of DASH and DCR, just to hedge a bit in case there's a pull back on the horizon.
Not sure if any of you are mining ETN but it got de-listed from whattomine recently. Still though, at .10 now it's still easily #1 profit if you can find a good pool. There are a lot of dicey ones that either dont' report stats well or go offline way too much. I switched over to hashparty.io about 4-5 hours ago and it seems pretty solid so far. Still have half my rigs on ETH+DCR though due to all the problems with ETN... don't really wanna commit all my miners there should it all blow up overnight lol. Still, hoping to get my Vega rig up and running by next week as that thing is gonna kill on ETN or XMR. Still need to find 2 more Vega 56's so hoping to see some hit the market soon.

I just sold some btc at 12,100 . Have to check on other coins on bittrex. May sell more.

How in the world did u find enough connectors on a 450W PSU to connect 6 cards???

Phil, curious are you selling coins off to take a profit or invest in more equipment? That's sort of my dilemma now, I know buying and holding would yield more profit in the long run that mining. But I'm compelled to buy more mining equipment. It's sort of counter intuitive of course it's all speculative but still.

I sold a little to invest more in my Omnia link below for lifetime mining contracts. Second stream can't hurt!

How in the world did u find enough connectors on a 450W PSU to connect 6 cards??? 1080ti average=220w depending on config. so lets say: 220x6=1320w You wonder why it's not working...... remember; 450w isn't 450w of 12V, its "n"amps of 12V; lets be generous and say 32A. 32x12=384W. Not enough for two cards. And all of this is without subtracting the % overhead of efficiency (so multiply capability of PSU by 0.8 to 0.9 depending on rating: by my example 384x0.8=307.2w) Check the PSU label. See what it can really do.

I had been mining for 2 months using MPH and just yesterday morning pointed all my rigs to NiceHash mining equihash. All was well until 3:37 this morning when my phone started going crazy with messages from all my rigs that the miners were restarting. Looking at the logs, none of them are able to connect to the NiceHash servers. I try to log into the NiceHash dashboard, and get a message that the system is in "maintenance mode". Time to switch back to MPH. SERVER STATUS is all "green", yet I can't connect. Europe - Amsterdam USA - San Jose China - Hong Kong Japan - Tokyo India - Chennai Brazil - Sao Paulo EDIT: Got all rigs switched back over to MPH and they are happily mining away ZEC again. And now the main NiceHash page is showing:

Buysolar and I will be building the new bigger and better solar array. Stage 1 should be done this spring.

Buysolar and I will be building the new bigger and better solar array. Stage 1 should be done this spring. this move is wise, with more solar power.. if crypto remains profitable ROI will be quick, if crypto is down free solar energy maintains "tolerable" profit. electricity source is always in the equation and if we are capable in improving it we should, crypto mining is not just improving mining gear.

I'm a big solar proponent myself. My rigs currently consume about 10,000 watts 24/7. My current solar arrays help offset power consumption cost. Here's a graph from Sunday when it was nice and sunny: Of course this being close to the darkest part of the year here in the Northern hemisphere (I'm in Virginia), we don't have that many daylight hours compared to the summer months. Too bad the sun doesn't shine 24/7! I'm pretty close to bringing 2 additional solar arrays online. Got all the panels installed Sunday along with all the micro-inverters. Just need to pull wires for each of the 4 strings through the conduit in the ground back to the sub-panel and I'll be at 35 kW.

I want to add solar too my my farm , is it hard to install the panels yourself ?

If you're a DIY'er it's not that bad. I did a 56 panel roof system by myself and had a helper to assist with digging the holes for my 3 ground based arrays. On the ground mount arrays, having a helper assist with getting the upper rows of panels in place is a must, unless you have equipment to lift them up. On my 1st ground mount array, I was able to install the upper rows by myself using a front end loader to raise the panels and function as a work platform at the same time. If you have a farm, I'm assuming you have a tractor with a FEL and possibly an auger attachment for drilling the holes? I found the electrical work pretty easy, but if you're doing Net Metering with the POCO, you need to submit an application to them and also get a permit from the county and they will need to inspect your work.

Your setup looks very nice and clean , impressive
