Post Your Mining Rig Efficiency

[yochdog]

on of my rigs:

4,600 MH/s

955 Watts at the wall

4.81 MH/w



3x BFL singles
2X 7970

I run dual hex-core XEONS, so that takes the efficiency waaaaay down.  

the 7970's are dialed in at 3.08 MH/w though....which is awesome.

You go around adding BFLs and video cards to everything you can touch, don't you yochdog. lol

I am hitting it hard while I can!

Linksys (cisco) e3000
Rosewill 7 port USB hub
Rosewill 650W PSU
2x BFL singles

155W
1650MH/s

10.6MH/W

Am I not welcome here anymore?

I thought each BFL was 80W each...how is your system less than 160?

i did a killawatt on the bfl's when i first go tthem.  it was under80.

Thanks. What firmware was that running?

I also found this thread by P_shep. It appears he's using an ATX PSU to power the Singles, which is more efficient.

firmware..?  no idea.  got them hashing, left them alone. as long as the heat is under 59C they get 826Mh each (2)

I am waiting on cables from : https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=74397.0

I'll update this now:

Linksys (cisco) e3000
Rosewill 7 port USB hub
Rosewill 650W PSU
6x BFL singles

480W
5029MH/s

10.5MH/W

No more mining for me.  I make roughly 1850 MH/s worth of BTC per week now, @ 0 Watts.  Suck it, FPGA/ASICs

Investing heavily?

[SamHa1n]

370 Watts @ ~5.2Gh/s = FPGA4TW!

[Tomatocage]

0 Watts @ ~5.5Gh/s = PPTFTW!

why is everyone talking about how much watts such and such pulls?  that isn't most efficient

most efficient is what makes you the most money

sometimes i get the feeling that at least a good quarter of the people here get x amt of dollars a month and think theyre making a profit, even though their electricity costs + equipment depreciation is 2x

Because as a GUIDELINE, 10MHs/W will be more profitable than 1MHs/W. I'm sure you know this, so please stop nitpicking.

what?

90% or more of the posts in this thread are listing better efficiency by lowering overall output

where is this guideline you speak of?

I am pretty sure the guideline he speaks of is common sense.   10 is better then 1 if your looking for more of something.

[Phraust]

Just got a kill-a-watt and measured my usage.  860w, with an average around 8,552 mh.  So it's about 9.94 mh/w

10 BFLs running off of a corsair ax1200
Mac Mini Server

And this is while cpu mining for litecoin as well (35 kh).

10 apples is better than 1 apple, yes.

So one bawzz super elite 200wpm typist costs you $20 an hour to employ as a medical transcriptionist... you can outsource to India and employ four 100wpm typists there for same price.    first is more efficient, second gets you more money

Both of your analogies doen't make any sense, because that's not what ANYONE in this thread is posting. Almost everyone in here is posting (total product gained / total cost of obtaining product), which, in your annalogy, would be wpm/$. 200wpm/$20 (one uber typist) is 10wpm/$. 400wpm/$20 (4 typist at same money) gets you 20wpm/$. Second is more efficient, AND gets you more money. See the correlation? The two are the same. In our case, we're dealing with MHs/W, instead of wpm/$.

Also, 10 apples are better than 1. Yes. However, buying 10 apples per $ is more cost EFFICIENT than 1 apple per $, which is exactly what mining efficiency is all about.
