I think we might be in for a... disappointment.
As a guy posted in another thread, max total miner revenue per 24 hours is = 144 blocks * 12.5 block reward * $180/coin = $324,000 a day
Ethereum miner revenuer per 24 hours is like $6 million.
I don't think this will be a high flier unless the price goes up substantially.
Ethereum has 104 Th Nethash... that's 3.5 million GPU's @ 30Mh/s. So it would be the same revenue as BTG if BTG attracts 1/18th the GPU's, i.e., 200,000 GPU's. Hopefully it attracts a few more GPU's than that Hopefully not! On a sidenote, I've run the calcs... If I were to build another rig using the 6-slot Onda D1800 and filling them with Vega 56's, it'd still set me back over $4000 (Thanks to UK prices and VAT...). That's (assuming today's mining profitability) about 7 months to breakeven. 2.5 months if all my rigs work together towards that goal. Conclusion: Still undecided. If you have a VEGA rig -- you might as well sell your hash to NH/Cryptonite. In whattomine, NH/Cryptonite is table leader for over a week now, ahead of ETH and Equihash. Yeah, that's what I've been doing with my two RX 570 rigs over the past week. For this BTG....
I am testing a strategy to put all my rigs pointed to Nicehash Equihash (for the first few weeks) because of --
- possibility of higher premium for miners/non-miners buying additional hash to quickly mine BTG because of low difficulty
- a lot of pools are getting ready for BTG and it may take awhile to see which pools are stable and cheapest to mine
I think I will do the same. This will spare me having to wake up at 7 on Sunday to manually switch my rigs to pools that aren't ready... I'll just set them all to Nicehash-Equihash on Saturday night before I go to sleep hey hoo.

In my testing last week, my ETH farm - around 6.6GHs, converted to Equihash around 60,000 sol/s. The ETH farm is all RX470,Rx480s and poor in Equihash -- if I add in the small NVIDIA farm, I can push another 30-35K sols/s. I wonder how many BTG coins can a 100k sols/s farm do in a day?

I will be doing about 16,000 sols we will see how this works out.

both of those are wall mounted , i suppose as long as they ate above your rigs either should work
the one u get depends on your mounting options

All BIOS modded so mining Cryptonite now is saving me tons on the power bill. Too bad the RX is not a very good Equihash miner. Btw, those who PM me on how to hang the Deltas - upside down. There are secured handles in between the exhaust fans, just pop/eject them out and use 2 x S hooks to hang them. This way, hot air is exhausted upwards and will help remove hot air circulating around the rigs. See pix.

Question to those of you that mine Equihash @ Nicehash .. Do you take the payout in BTC? Edit: sorry if this is a dumb question.

I can probably do about 9500-10000 sols (23 GPUs). I gather that nobody knows how many GPUs will go for btcgold and what price it would have vs btc. I would hate to break the current setup only to go back. Any word on US based pools (other than nicehash)? Connecting to Singapore might not work out well.

Seems like you are using a different type of breakout board than what is available through parallelminer. Your type is perfect for hanging the PSU fan side up, could you refer me to the source if it is not proprietory?

He builds cases for sale not that sure he would tell you the info. @ spotswood the larger board was delayed It arrives on monday. I will send it out to you on Tuesday. I have 10 of these coming this monday. my cost.......... 142 my markup........... 8 shipping to usa..... 20 maybe less
