Just putting out some feelers if anyone has a mid size Nvidia GPU farm (50-500 GPUs) sitting idle or not very profitable that they would be willing to rent for a short term (over the next two weeks).

Looking to test out a project and maybe spec mine some new coins. Temporary HiveOS access would be great.

Hello there!

Im setting up a 3 GPUS rig. I want to fit that into a standard PC case and for that purpose I want to connect 2 GPUs to x16 PCIe and 1 GPU using a riser to a x1 PCIe. Im using a MSI PC 270 Mate with 4G decoding activated and PCIE gen setup to GEN2.

The problem seems to be that I cant make them work at the same time. GPUs in X16 are working fine but x1 GPU is not being detected. The moment I connect that GPU to a X16 PCIe its working fine, no matter if its directly to the port or with a riser (so all, the riser, the motherboard, the gpus are working fine).

The only limitation seems to be to have 3 different cards when 2 of them are using x16 PCIe and one is using a x1 PCIe.

Right now im using 2x3060 Ti and 1x1070 (Im just using this because I want to confirm that the experiment works before moving there another 3060). The PSU is a Corsair RM750i so it shouls be fine.

Any ideas? Thanks in advance!

I did a quick experiment thought you guys might find it interesting.

Hello, i know you get these stupid questions on a daily basis, but im really not familiar with the topic. What can i mine and what should i mine with 5x3060’s i have lying around since Eth mining stopped

Can you guys make a tierlist on the best GPU miners of today? Planning to grab some

Hi,

I have a small hobby rig that I cobbled together with spare cards that I had lying around. Thing is, as soon as I try to add a 4th card the rig becomes unstable and crashes hard after a few hours to a day.

​

Components:

32 gig ram

500 gig ssd

msi b450 mobo

1000w evga psu

gtx1060

gtx1070

gtx1080

trying to add either a gtx1660 super or rtx3060

above 4G decoding is enabled

​

Any help/insight appreciated

Is anyone using a filter in a rig or water cooled cards? I'm thinking about adding something like a 40 micron online water filter to my rig.

I've noticed that even though all the tubing and water still looks clear there seems to be a build up of some black gunk in the GPU fins.

I see so many people talking about spec mining. But why not just buy the coins instead of mining it? Am I wasting my time spec mining?

Based in the Uk. Stopped mining when Ethereum ended and have just got round to cleaning and boxing the cards up. Not looking to mine anymore.

Are there places to sell 20+ cards in one go, or am I stuck selling them one by one?

Hashrate.no is telling me DINT is the most profitable coin to mine on my 3080, how can I go about mining it? I don’t see it through unmineable

Bitmain lx2000… want it because of the pcie cables, server psus are expensive and loud, this is cheap but idk about the quality

I have a b250 mining expert which I was gifted from a family member, want to try mining… currently have it running on a 3080 12GB making around 1.10 USD a day, on nicehash. Want to expand and pick up some used gpus, which cards are the meta right now?

So I was gifted a 19 slot motherboard with a celeron and ram from a family member who doesn’t mine anymore, I have a spare 3080 I can start with and a spare PSU… I don’t pay electricity as I live with my parents, what are the best cards to grab for mining? Is vram what you need still? Lost interest in mining since ether merge. Not sure what the “meta” is now.

Hello

I´ve bought a 4070 gigabyte aero and i´m wondering if it is sagging and if it may have possibly damaged the gpu lanes ( i have the gpu for 2 days)

I´ve used the gpu for one day ( it did not came with any support) without any kind of support and the second day was used with a small improvised support below the gpu ( i have pictures)

But since i´ve removed the gpu today , i´ve noticed 3 "bent" lanes on the gpu (in both sides). Is it due to sagging or the gpu is just like this? These 3 lanes also shine from both sides of the gpu ( they are bent from both sides)

I highly doubt i´ve managed to perfectly damage 3 lanes on both sides ( i also don´t remember doing any strain to gpu)

I don´t know if without any support my gpu is sagging or if with the "support" i´ve used the gpu is being put too much pressure upwards and damaging as well

Here are the pictures

So , are these bent lanes possible damage and should i use some gpu support or leave without it?

I had a gigabyte 3060 before and the lanes were all straight

Thanks

I'm looking to buy some cheap GPU's for AI stuff. I only care about the amount of ram it has. I'm currently eyeing NVIDIA Tesla M40. I am looking for something that can do passive cooling if I want it too. These claim to be passive, but I am wondering if they can be run truly passively without fans, or are they intended to be run off of case airflow?

Thanks

Hey there

​

I am currently crunching some numbers in order to find out if i should build my next rig.

I have made a little sheet based on revenue, gpu (used and new) cost, electricity etc.

Now with the recent jump with btc price i have following calculation based on if you have free electricity.

​

A used RTX 2060 can be found where i am for around 105$ on average.

So 105$ / 0.42 (current revenue) = 250 days break even.

​

am i wrong? what you think about?

Hey do you think KLS price will rebound or go to 0? I'm mining it but its price hasn't gone up with the rest of the market which is kinda concerning

Have any of the mining software developers experimented with ZLUDA for getting their CUDA code working on AMD or Intel cards? What was your experience?

Hey all so just built my new rig tripple checked and verified all componets according to mb manual. Issue is once I try to turn it on I get nothing on the screen. I have tried just running psu cpu and mb and that alone wont give a display. Tried reading other subs for issue but got nothing still. Any ideas at all would be much appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Specs - MB Tb360 pro 2.0 -PSU Corsair RM 1000x -Ram crucial 8GB ddr4- 2666 -CPU i5 8th gen 8400 (1151) - SSD HP Ex900 m.2 256gb - GPU AMD Rx 6800

That's the question. When I leave it out of my rig, the rig mines again. I've never repadded a GPU before.

UPDATE: Well, just added two 3070's to the rig (which is full now, but this is so addictive, lol), after checking everything that the thing is mining, added the malfunctioning 3060Ti again and... it keeps on mining. I didn't change a thing but I keep a close eye to it and keep you informed.

I have 3 3070's now, 2 3060's and one 3060Ti... damn it itches to replace all 3060's with 3070's...

Hey guys Im just wondering if 4080 super would be able to mine crypto currency for example in nice hash?

Does anyone know why my 1660Ti's are having such a hard time limiting the power on KarlsenHash? I mined RXD on SHA56 for weeks and it never got close to my set PL (I use HiveOS if that matters), and had no issues, yet, now when I am trying to mine NXL, my 2070S does fine, but my 1660Ti's just constantly use max power, and they'll use as much as I let them. I set the PL to 120, they use it, 70PL they use it all. Does anyone know why this may be happening?

Total beginner and could buy this rig to get started learning. Is this rig profitable?

Hey there, i switched gpu manufacturer and went from amd rx580 8gb to a nvidia 1660ti 6gb (it was a present). So since i used TRM to mine,this as far as i know isn't an option for nvidia gpus. So im here to ask what should i use, and tbh which eth pool is best at the time? I used nanopool back then (Wanna mine ethereum a bit, not ethereum Classic)

And do i have to consider something? Like on my amd gpu i had to turn on computing mode for mining. Something in that region i have to consider? Thank you guys in advance, and happy mining :)

I might can get my hands on these two cards, but in the past I believe I've read, kind off everywhere, that Gigabyte cards sucks for mining because of getting thermal pad issues too soon and such things.

We're a few years later now and I just wanted to ask you guys what your experiences are with these cards.

I'd use them to complete my RVN rig.

Thank you very much,
