⚒️Simple Questions thread ⚒️ Sub's WIKI ⚒️ /r/MiningRigPics ⚒️

I realized last year that the GPUs are no longer profitable for ETH mining when adjusted with the amount of Power needed and increasing difficulty level. I am now left with 25x RTX 3090s with rigs but not sure how to make the mining profitable or at least breakeven. Plus in my country we have 25% tax on the profits over mining. Not sure where to go from here

Hi Friends

This is my first time writing in your community and I need your opinion on a topic that is silly for you but important for me. My mining experience has always been through a platform, not hardware mining. Now, with the developing technology, different alternatives have emerged. For example, GPU rental... But my biggest concern is security... I'm currently looking at the Solidus AI Tech project and when I saw that it's a GPU Marketplace, I filled out a questionnaire-style form and sent it in to find out the details. But I don't know what the price range is or what I'll encounter.

Most probably, the remote access tool will be installed, otherwise I don't think it will be possible. Is it worth sacrificing my only computer just for this job? What kind of proportion should I make? Please consider me as a complete code illiterate :)

Thank you in advance.

Hi, ignoring electricity, blah blah blah; when should a solo gpu mine from a solo pool?

specifically rtx 3080ti, rvn.

i understand its worth it if you find the block, u mine it, u earn it all... so how often would that happen with a single gpu?

I have recently built a gaming pc with 7800x 3D and 4070Ti Super for gaming. I wanted to make some money out of it. But I have no idea whether I can mine bitcoins with the setup.

Please give suggestions regarding

1. Feasibility
2. How to mine?
3. Your piece of advice.

I have two rigs (8 per rig so 16 in total) of RTX Zotac Gaming 3080’s trinity OC. and I wanna sell em both of my rigs. But I got no clue how much I should sell em for. Anybody know how much I should sell one rig for? Thanks!

It seems consistent, that the best coin to mine the last few weeks is ALEO... but as a US citizen... i cant find any marketplaces (or wallets to mine to) that I can access from the US. (Markets Aleo is on that is inaccessible from US: Hashkey, Gate.io, Mexc)

Anyone know any legal ways? Or why ALEO is illegal to begin with?

If anyone has a card

MSI 5700 MIC OC

The common version ..... not the XT

Can you send a picture from MSI after the burner!

thx

In addition, there is ALEO.

KAS and ALPH initially supported GPU, but as the hashrate of the entire network continues to increase, GPU has lost its advantage.

It seems that RVN has had better mining performance in recent weeks.

Hi everyone, I’ve been looking for reviews or more information about the Afox AFB250-ETH12EX. It’s a motherboard for 12 GPUs and has an LGA 1151 socket with an Intel B250 chipset. I'm not sure if the lack of information is because it’s new or simply because no one has bought because it's garbage.

Thanks

So I want to build a rig for GPU mining, CPU mining, and Hard drive mining (spacemesh or chia) all on one machine. Main thing I need help figuring out is what motherboard to get that I can load up with lots of stuff. Do any of those dual cpu motherboards have enough pcie slots to run 4 or more gpu's? I could do just 4 gpu's with 2 cpu's but ideally want 6 or 8 gpu's. 1 cpu is fine too though. I've got 2 3070's and a 3060 ti to put in it now and will fill with 5070's when they come out. Might buy a couple more 3070s now if i get it built before bull run kicks off and resell them during peak bull run.

Then I'll also need to be able to have as much internal hard drive space as possible and as many usb slots as possible. I'll also wanna go for 128gb or 256gb ram, to mine PoUW in case dynex or flux gain traction this cycle or another new PoUW coin does. Will also help with chia/spacemesh to have lots of ram.

Any suggestions for maintaining stability with so much going on in one machine would help, what operating system would you recommend for this, ubuntu?

Also if anyone can recommend where to get good prices for parts in Canada that would be appreciated. I've mostly just used Canada Computers and Amazon in the past.

And yes I know that mining is dead, thank you in advance for letting me know. I'm hoping to build this rig to last a long time and hopefully go through 2 bull runs and get some good spec mines next bear market. I also just love it as a hobby.

Hi everyone - I've built my own PC primarily for gaming and for fun, and explored using it to mine via NiceHash in the past with a 3090Ti. But I never really optimized around it seriously, have not built a dedicated rig before, and now I find myself in a position where I have zero electric costs. Past a certain point it might start to cost me some if I build a large enough rig to use up the capacity that's allowed/available for me at zero cost, but it would still be very cheap. And that would be if using thousands of KwH

I am working very long hours and overcommitted elsewhere in life already, but I'd like to take advantage of the situation to put some hardware to use. For free electric it seems like it makes more sense to get cheaper, older hardware (less power efficient, but cheaper overall for its net hashrate is my logic). I'm looking for any perspective and/or advice especially from someone who's been in the same situation or similar. Ideally, I'd like something that's scalable up or down fairly easily and comes with minimal work/time investment due to my schedule pressure. I have a good amount of spending power available to put towards this project if it seems worthwhile.

I intend to do some acutal ROI calculations and think more deeply about whether this would be more profitable than using the capital elsewhere, but to start with, some recommendations on a mining rig design/GPUs/kits to base that analysis would make things much easier. And any thoughts? If I were to deploy $5-10k towards this and run the miners near 24/7, how much electric do you think I'd use approx? what return in BTC? assuming current price what return in $ (if that's how you tend to think)? Even wild ballpark guesses or back of the envelope math I can still at least use to help spur my own imagination. Thanks!

Edit: After a day or so thinking about it/using some of the tools people shared I've quickly realized if I'm in it for profit ASICs are the better approach. I'll be doing some more research there, thank you

I made 20$ in 1 day with my 4080….

It’s time, here’s your written invitation.

You either are getting on the rocket, or you’re walking home.

Apparently largly un noticed, there’s a couple new coins. That are paying…. Well… right out the gate.

But it’s more than that, these new coins are shaking the market. Wales are moving around there hash because of this phenomenon.

Also People are starting to realize that asics are just a scam.

Something IS about to happen.

DONT TRUST PROFITABILITY CALCULATORS.

They are a means to discourage you. they don’t tell the truth.

If u know how crypto works. U understand that the less people mining the better…. So it makes sense that there are road blocks to discourage you.

Mining with nice hash, expect to not to make much…

But if u can mine the latest algos with a gpu, than ur in good shape right now…

Don’t take my word for it. Do your own market research and see if u can see what I see!

That’s non consumer.

I want mining specific cards.

I’m building my first rig.

Any recommendations???

Who’s the one with all the secrets here??

Please shed some light on this green newby.

Hey everyone! Long-time GPU miner here – been at it for a few years now. I was mining ETH until the merge, and since then, the profitability on altcoins has been hit or miss.

Like a lot of you, I’ve been exploring different ways to make use of my rigs or even get rid of them. I recently stumbled upon something pretty interesting that I thought I'd share. It's an app that lets you lend out your GPU power, kinda like mining but a little more hands-off and less power-hungry.

At first, I was skeptical, but I gave it a try, and so far, the returns have been decent without the hassle of switching coins or pools. Just fire it up and let the GPUs do their thing. It's not the golden ticket, but in times like these, every bit counts.

Has anyone else tried something similar or found new ways to utilize their GPUs? Would be curious to hear what others are doing post-merge to stay profitable!

every currency isnt listed as tradable on any exchange I have access to in the US. binance coinbase webull pay

wtf. are all u US based miners just sitting on inaccessible wallets???

Hello friends

Based on an electricity cost of $0.06 per kWh and the RTX 4090 miner model, mining RVN can still generate some mining profits.

It seems that NEXA has had better mining performance in recent weeks.

Hi, What to mine with RTX 3070? anything wort minig now?

and od you think I should sell it and upgrade to RTX 4070?

Pyrin website has been shut down and tech explorer says the project is shutting down. One of the devs ran off with the funds and the price crashed 70%. Time to switch your rigs.

Hola a todos,

Actualmente estoy minando la criptomoneda PUGDAG utilizando su nuevo algoritmo KarlsenHash, pero he estado teniendo algunos problemas para recibir los beneficios en mis wallets. He probado tanto la webwallet como la wallet de Xeggex, pero en ambos casos no llegan los pagos como deberían.

¿Alguien más está experimentando este tipo de dificultades? Me gustaría saber si es un problema general o si es algo específico de mi configuración.

¡Gracias de antemano!

Hi everyone,

I'm currently mining the cryptocurrency PUGDAG using its new KarlsenHash algorithm, but I've been having issues receiving my rewards in my wallets. I've tried both the webwallet and the Xeggex wallet, but the payments aren't coming through as expected.

Is anyone else experiencing these kinds of difficulties? I'd like to know if this is a widespread issue or something specific to my setup.

Thanks in advance!

For context: I got a mining rig from a family member and tried to get it running again. It was using 3 RTX 3090 and 2 800W PSU from redragon. When trying to run them the two PSUs exploded and the rest of the system was left intact. I bought 2 new PSUs and started over.

The system was constantly crashing overnight, sometimes it was the x2 RTX 3090 side of the system, sometimes it was one card alone.

1. To fix the individual cards crashing randomly, I had to use 2 dedicated cables for each GPU. One PCIe cable is not enough to power a RTX 3090.

2. For the random crashes from one PSU with the most cards, I just had to reduce the power limit of the cards.

3. Also make sure to not use any multipliers for the PCIe cables. Make sure their max draw is 288w each cable.

I am stuck into using 850W PSUs sadly, so there is no solution as to get a higher wattage PSU.

For context, I live in Argentina. 850W PSUs cost $120, which is normal, while 1200W PSUs cost up to $2000, basically because there is no market here so they inflate the price a lot.
