I have decided to run a farm of all 1060's.

I recently acquired sixty 1060 6GB GPU's for around 12,000$.
Only thing is they're a mix. At that current rate i am yielding .2 ETH every other day with 30 GPUS setup. Another 30 being placed in the next couple of days.


I have recently now been offered 100 Zotac Mini 6GB GPU's for 229$ with taxes included. I was planning to set this up in my A-C cooled room with a direct 60 AMP line setup.

Now, some advice I can use is what boards to use. I am having SIGNIFICANT problems with the H110's and a friend of mine who has a GPU Farm has already told me to stay away from H110's and the big boards as they underperform.

Now the Zotac cards can be delivered to me in under a week. Usually, I was quoted months upon delivery. This is an ALRIGHT price. What do you guys think??

You get 2ETH/day with 30 x gtx1060 ?

It is about 600$ / day, so 20$ / GPU / day !

Something is wrong somewhere or I didn't understand your post...

Do you have problems with math? Where did you get the income of 20 dollars a day with one GPU? $ 2 that would be a good result. Do not comment what you don't know. You expose yourself a fool and mislead newcomers. Maybe you are a secret advertising agent the manufacturers of the GPU?.

Asus B250 mining expert boards seem to get positive reviews. I think you can only connect ut to 13 regular gtx 1060 cards to that board, it won't recognize the 14th regular gtx 1060 card, at least not in windows. It does seem to work with more than 13 "mining edition" gtx 1060s though. I personally stick to "standard" z270 boards and run 8 gpus per rig. It's more expensive since you'll have to buy more cpu/ram/ssd combos, but easier to manage and easier to resell if you decide to go out of mining. You could also run 9 cards per rig with standard motherboards, the ones that have 7 pci-e slots and 2 m2 slots should work just fine.

Obviously and sorry !

This notation is absolutely not used in my country. The 0 before decimal must be written.

I just ask something I didn't understand because of the 0 missing before .2 ETH
Do not be agressive like that dude. You are very better than me. No worry about that.

Of the big boards the H110 is far and away the best. That being said, if you are setting up a large scale farm you should really think about running only 6 card rigs. I run the PiMP OS on my nvidia rigs and once setup, you dont even have to touch the rigs again.

For example this is one of my personal rigs:

[Agent: PiMP11153 (Running) Total HR: [2.68Kh/s] Miners running [1] GPUs [AAAAAA]]
[12:04 PM][Uptime: 59d 16:19]

59 day uptime without ever even having to look at it.

Stop buying industrial miners, running them at home, and then complaining about the noise.

What kind of ram do those ZOTACs have? It's very likely to be hynix and that would be little waste of money.
