    Power draw

    Windows 10 pro. I have Ubuntu but Im just not that familiar with it. Im feeling my way around with this first miner while i wait on my other gpus come in. I have to admit, the learning curve is a little more envolved than I thought but I love learning new things and Im having a lot of fun doing it.

    Power draw

    I used wattman and lowered the gpu voltage -10 and power is down to about 780w but mh fell to 25.5. I went back to stock settings and mh didnt increase at all. Still at 25.5 . Not sure whats going on.

    Power draw

    Can someone give me a quick and dirty lesson in undervolting a gpu to reduce power consumption. Im running xfx Rx580 8g black edition. With 5 running Im drawing 1060w on a 1200 power supply. I know everyone gets the power draw reducedbut how? This is all new to me.

    Power for risers and gpu

    Ive got it figured out now. If I were home more often I wouldnt be so worried about it. Im taking a week off from building my new house to build a cabinet similar to a server cabinet to hold all these miners. Better safe than sorry.

    Power for risers and gpu

    I dont have enough 6pin ports on the power supply. Only 6 but have 12 Sata. There is so much conflicting information floating around Im not sure what to do. This will be running unattended for 2 weeks at a time so I want to be sure.

    Power for risers and gpu

    New miner

    Ive put together a parts list with good scale ability for future expansion. Its not the cheapest route to take but with the ability to expand it seems like the way to go. Im not really doing it for a hobby but more of a long term strategy, (aka gamble), that crypto currency is here to stay...

    Where are you finding good deals on 4g cards? Everywhere I look 4g and 8g are only about $100 difference.

    New miner

    I could probably get everything setup with 2 cards to start, then just buy 1 or 2 new cards per month so it doesnt hit me all at once. There are so many different RX580 cards to choose from and they seem to be about the best bang for the buck right now. I just need to figure out which ones are...

    New miner

    I thought about that but I dont know anyone that has a decent gpu besides me. Lol . I would still have to buy new ones. Ill keep looking around and see where I end up. I did find this forum by accident and a month later I was buying Cells by he ton from a recycler.

    New miner

    Im trying to decide if its worth the $3k to put one together. Im sure in the long run it would be a wise move but with me building this new house there isnt a lot of extra money laying around. Decisions decisions.

    New miner

    With the current difficulty and the recent price spike of useable gpus, it there any profitability in building a new miner using all new parts? According to the profitibility calculators there is money to be made but how do they compare to real world use? At current market value for ETH the roi...

    My Rig Build

    Ive considered building a gpu rig since my electric rate is so cheap but not sure if its worth it in the end. It might make more sense to just trade it. I made $2000 in one weekend on bitcoin a couple of weeks ago as a test but I was a nervous wreck.

    My Rig Build

    The asic miners for bitcoin and litecoin are sold out for this batch. You will have to buy one in advance for the next batch and they only accept bitcoin as payment. You can use a profitability calculator to get an idea of your profit and roi but as the difficulty level increases the profit goes...

    Opus battery tester charging rate?

    My cells are already charged. They are usually discharging within 10 minutes of putting them in the chargers. I don't let them charge again fully to 4.2v I pull them out at about 3.8v. It will probably be more than a year before they will be put to use and I've heard it's not good to leave them...

    Opus battery tester charging rate?

    I put a small fan on my chargers to keep air moving and they don't warm up as much. It keep the opus charger from cycling on and off and keeps a constant 1a draw. They don't get hot without it but it seems the opus is sensitive to heat so at slightly warm to the touch it will drop the discharge...
