This sounds really good. I can't get under 200w with Trex.Quote:

My current settings if anyone can critique and make recommendations, I'd appreciate your experience.

I got the efficiency right, but the power usage wrong.
3080 - 95MH/s - 205W - 0.46MH/J - 52*C GPU, 92*C VRAM
1070 - 24MH/s - 89W - 0.27MH/J - 50*C GPU, 61*C Hotspot.

Anyone mining eth classic? Considering digging my R9 280x out of retirement and mining with that.
I hop it was after the dip. But also, there's a crypto investing thread.Quote:

Interested. PM me with your asking price.Quote:

I have a buddy who's managed to wrangle 4 coins so far from ~20TB of space. I'm currently farming ~ 3TB and growing, with a TTW of 8 months, and 0 coins. Pools are starting up this month, but I heard you'll need to replot everything.Quote:

I have a couple of 2TB drives and 500GB that I could re-use.
edit: setup a chia rig, 2x 500GB HDD for OS and Temp Directory, 1x 2TB HDD for finished directory.
plotting right now, 2% for both plot.

Nice. I ordered a couple external 10TB HDD and a 1TB NVME SSD. Right now I'm testing plotting using some spare parts I had, using a 120GB SSD for my OS, a 1TB sata SSD for tmp and final location. When my externals arrive I'm going to move it from that 1TB to the 10TB, so hopefully it makes it here tomorrow. About 45 minutes in on a single plot and I'm at 8%.Quote:

Noticed profitability on NH jump up on my 3090 today, been sitting at .00048 BTC/24H ($33) most of the day so far
I'm not actually sure. I've just been using a 500gb HDD and a 2TB HDD to fill up my 3TB in parallel. Now that it's full, i'm using the 500 to fill up my 2TB. It looks like I'm at 1/4 in 3 hours? So 12 hours/plot on a 7200rpm drive?Quote:

1 - 1080ti on NH: $110USD

... so ~$900CAD/month... not too shabby for $2300 worth of cards, good mining lately!
^sweet, will pay off in less than 3 months then profits then
yeah loving the mining right now, 2 1060 6GB doing 4-5CAD$/day each on NH is pretty sick.
3060ti and 3070 mining ETH on 2miners and we are earning close to 0.01 ETH/day
chia plotting with standard HDD is slow, 20hrs and 1st plot was 29% and 2nd plot 18%.
turned if off and put in 1TB SSD for temp plotting.
