spent the day fiddling with a new project idea, since i have a water well on the property for sprinkler system, i am going to tie in a run of pipe to trickle water when the lawn is being watered to top up a 55 gallon drum i have. Going to connect a water to water exchange in the drum of water to see if i can drop the loop temp some, figured the heat would make the water evaporate in the drum and i can adjust the drip rate into the drum to keep it full off well water when the irrigation system comes on.... Currently with Florida heat, im seeing as high as 55c during peak of day and dropping down into the 40's at night for the GPU loop.

you can do 50%
Thanks. My mining room is around 85°f pretty consistently. The hybrids stay at 46°c while the air cooled are 68°-71°. Trying to plan ahead for the summer months.

Do you have any windows in the room? if i had a bunch of hybrids, i would probably build something to direct the hot air from the rads outside so its not recycling the same air... not exactly sure what your setup Also running fans at 100% on hybrids would probably be a good idea, fans are super cheap and if you need to get temps cooler you can always stack more fans on the rad.... picture is of a joke, but stacking 2 on each side actually helps some....

I got the hybrids in Nov cooling has not been an issue. My 2 car garage attaches to my basement/ den I can run up to 7kwatts in the garage in the winter if it is under 30f outside the garage will go to about 90f I simply reduce the gear in the warmer months. I can run 1-1.5kwatts in the summer. the nature of my house is the walk out basement was always colder then the top floor. now with miner the walkout basement is always a bit warmer then upstairs. my fuel heat bills dropped from 250 usd to 75 usd in the winter. my ac bill goes up a bit so warm weather months I just have reduced mining. but the solar array gets more light so I can move some gear to the array.

I have been talking to the guy about it, he informed me that it needs external power plugged in for more than 1 card to boot, also that 12 cards running that 6 pin power plug runs pretty warm. lastly the usb connections a very weak and loose, he has contacted the manufacture about the extremely loose usb connections.

So anti riser stance seems to wind over this board. Shame as it looks nice. Frankly I see gpu mining taking a big hit due to gear like the 16 gpu unit I am mining. My test unit has the p106-100 but the p104-100 and the p102-100 are coming You can order the 16 unit with 16 p104-100 which are 1070 equals set to 100% tdp it does 8000 sols at 2900 watts but just clock to 110 watts a card vs 150 watts a card it will do 7000 sols at about 2200 watts. it will have the 3 psu in a back plane setup. at the moment they want 50 moq at 11k = 550,000 usd this is out of my league. I could order 2 or 3 maybe 4 of them. I think they are going to try to squeeze us out of the gpu mining game here.

For us, I will still use the 6 GPU boards until they die and buy 12GPU boards later.

Hey guys
Quick question here, apart from Ethash and Cryptonight, is there any other algos where AMD cards perform well ?

I could build a 700+ mhs rx 580 rig today using 8GB cards priced at $450 a pop for that price , I dont see how they will price us out with thier 3 month waranty POS mining only 4GB cards

Neoscrypt, Lyra2v2, Equihash are competitive to various degrees --- you can mine Xevan and Nist5 too but they don't compete with Nvidia very well there. I'm probably also forgetting some other options.

I've seen this on reddit, https://www.reddit.com/r/btc/comments/83d9y9/im_freaking_the_fuck_out_wtf_is_this/it is on a domain which was related to ASICMINER earlier (but maybe the website was run by a shareholder?) asicminer.co Someone knows more about this? I still own 100 direct shares, so would be good to know what's going on -_- Edit: BTW I think most likely someone grabbed the domain and the linked website is a SCAM so please don't preorder anything lol. Whoa either scammers really upped their game or, well, decentralisation is coming to btc mining again.

They're usually fairly competative on a hash/$ basis for Zcash and other equihash coins, though they lose to Nvidia on hash/watt. If you do Gridcoin work, they are good at some projects. Most of their other past algorithm strongholds like Scrypt, SHA256, X11 have been taken over by ASIC miners.

Neoscrypt, Lyra2v2, Equihash are competitive to various degrees --- you can mine Xevan and Nist5 too but they don't compete with Nvidia very well there. I'm probably also forgetting some other options. The last time tried running Lyra2v2 on an RX 570 - about 2 months ago - it was unbelievably slow; as in, more than 10x slower than a GTX 1060. I've seen mention of a new Lyra2v2 miner for AMD on the forum, but since I rarely mine with that algo, anyway (snagging a few VTC here and there), I haven't bothered trying it. From my testing notes, AMD does deliver competitive performance on Neoscrypt vs. a similarly priced Nvidia card (based on MSRP). E.g. - my RX 570 does 720 kH/s using the old version of Gateless Gate (no GUI, no devfee) while each of my GTX 1060 do 650 kH/s using the KlausT fork of ccminer, and a claimed 720 kH/s with Palgin's hsrminer_neoscrypt (emphasis on "claimed" and his program is a bit unstable). I haven't tried Xevan on AMD - I'm not aware of any miner programs for it, actually (NB - this doesn't mean there isn't one!) - but since this algo seems to be only used on shady MasterNode coins I have only done brief testing with ccminer-alexis78 on Nvidia. Same with X17, NIST5, etc... There just doesn't seem to be as much variety in miner software for AMD to support these less popular algos, probably because AMD is so vastly superior at Cryptonight and Ethash it makes little sense to use it on anything else.

but the p104-100 and the p102-100 are coming
You can order the 16 unit with 16 p104-100 which are 1070 equals set to 100% tdp it does 8000 sols at 2900 watts
but just clock to 110 watts a card vs 150 watts a card it will do 7000 sols at about 2200 watts. it will have the 3 psu in a back plane setup.
at the moment they want 50 moq at 11k = 550,000 usd this is out of my league. I could order 2 or 3 maybe 4 of them.
