Number 9! Ninth altcoin thread. Back to the moon Baby!

Well my local Microcenter has basically no stock of RX 5700XTs other than Sapphire brand. I know they're good cards but I like the longer 3 year warranty on the ASUS, Gigabyte and MSI cards and with AmEx that pushes them out to 4 years without having to return the card to Microcenter (place of purchase). Since they have very little stock I'm hoping they get a decent amount of cards that I can get 1 to test out.

I get my first of 3 3080's today.

I would love to get the 6000 series amd but I don't have much hope to buy 1.

OKAY my first 3080 has arrived.

I am running simple miner beta with the following clocks

Core MHz:        200
Memory MHz: 1400
Watts :             220

target temp :  70c
fans:              56%:

note on back it has mixed caps which seem to work better.

did you reduce the power usage by reducing voltage or setting a power limit?
Also, you can drop clocks all the way down, i have mine running at 1000 (-400).

Thats a big difference in efficiency between the 3080 and 3070. Probably due to the gddr6x?

okay I set watts

simple mining software

has

core  100 setting gives me 1395 reading for core
mem 1500 setting gives me 10001 reading for ram
watts 235 watts gives me a 235 soft ware and 274 at the wall

has has been solid at 94.77


I will drop core to 0 and see what happens next


core           =0
mem/ram   =1500
watts         =  235

 seems to be at same watts and 94.77mh

so it is almost the same as 2x 5700xt's   which is good if space is an issue.

[fr4nkthetank]

rough calculation the GPU runs at 70%-75% power (235/320tdp?).  That's good.  It costs a little bit more BTC per hash though vs 5700xt.  I would like to have my backorder filled
edit: and thanks for sharing

I happy with short testing.

Looks like I can go to 230 watts and still stay in the 94.5mh number.

screen shots

set to
core -100
mem-ram 1500
watts 230







I had expected close to these numbers and for them to be stable.
Second card comes tomorrow.

any find amd 6800 or amd 6800xt

any find amd 6800 or amd 6800xt

Microcenter by me only received ten 6800... no 6800xt.. so the campers got them 

[philipma1957]

yeah these launches are really fucking bad.

Saves me the headache of driving 20 miles there and back and waiting in line just to have them say sorry. I guess I'll just pick up some 5600s on CyberMonday. It's just like the auto industry - they really have no incentive to lower prices because inventory is so low. Sucks for people who like to work hard and play hard.

I spent some time every day for 2 months in order to get my 3 evga 3080 orders in.

One was cancelled. first one is chugging along second one comes today.

So 60 days maybe 20 minutes a day = 1200 minutes of my time 20 hours is a lot of time to be able to order some cards.

And 1 is going to be cancelled.

So far I have killed about an hour trying to get the new amd cpus   I did not get one
and I spent about an hour trying to get new amd gpus I did not get one.

this is around 22 hours of time to order 2 gpus at a small premium

I have a space issue more then a power issue so 80+ mh cards are more attractive to me right now.

I have room for 50-60 cards. if they average 80mh I have 60 x 80 = 4.8gh

if they average 40mh I have 60 x 40 = 2.4 gh

but getting the gear has been tough to do this year.

Yeah if you are just under and there is a small voltage drop say 120 to 110  or 240 to 210 breakers pop.

Just got a notice from the IRS, I owe them $1.9 million dollars, lol.  Coinbase assholes sent them a 1099-k  saying I had 3.7 million in payment transactions.  I wish it was 10% of that, talked to my accountant and we will send them docs to correct.

I felt that way last summer 2019 about my 2018 return.  finally got it fixed.

and I did my 2019 return last mont on an extension should around 3700 refund. yet to see my check.

I guess the letter is a computer generated letter and our response should clear it up.    


My account said the IRS is a mess right now, I had to send in my 2019 tax payments  3 times and they never cashed the checks and keep sending letters then they cashed all 3 checks at once and sent a letter saying they owe me a refund, lol.

What I do now is keep everything on Binance or in a wallet and send it once a month to cash out.  Have as few transaction as possible.

my coinbase 1099s have been some crazy numbers but thats not what the irs taxes you by, it just how much money has gone in and out of coinbase. that number is not the taxable amount its the total amount thats passed through. some is taxable (if you made a profit), some not (ie you lost money and also they dont tax money you sent there, even though those figures are included in the 1099). the irs gets a copy of that and i give a copy to my accountant also to send in with the rest of the paperwork.

to get the actual taxes owed i just import my coinbase (and other exchange) transactions into a crypto tax program and sent it all off to my accountant. so far not a peep from the irs.
