Buy shitcoin, sell one cent higher. Foolproofmoney maker

Women dont know shit about this. You guys can at least make yourselves sound really important

Got my mining rig put together. She goes online tonight.

EVGA 1600W

2018-01-11 15:25:17 UTC  

The PSU was friggin' $419. Better not let me down.

2018-01-11 15:25:45 UTC  

My luck I'll plug it in and cause a massive blackout in my neighborhood

2018-01-11 15:27:29 UTC  

1600W, jesus christ yeah

2018-01-11 15:27:37 UTC  

Stayed up way too late putting it all together. The frame took the longest to build because I wanted to measure out the height of the GPU as it rested in the PCIe riser so they didn't lean at all.

2018-01-11 15:27:38 UTC  

I'm running a Corsair 850i

2018-01-11 15:27:51 UTC  

You've got like double my wattage lul

2018-01-11 15:28:00 UTC  

What cards are those again?

2018-01-11 15:29:14 UTC  

Reason I went with the 1600 is because each GPU requires 220w minimum and I wanted to have a little more wattage available as a buffer for when I overclock the GPUs

2018-01-11 15:29:33 UTC  

They are GTX 1080TIs

2018-01-11 15:31:45 UTC  

How much was the entire rig if you don't mind me asking?

2018-01-11 15:31:54 UTC  

And when did you buy the 1080s?

2018-01-11 15:33:34 UTC  

Bought the 1080s the day after Christmas.

Entire rig cost was $5114

2018-01-11 15:34:14 UTC  

Christ, you're making $50 a day with some coins with that setup

2018-01-11 15:34:45 UTC  

You mining yet?

2018-01-11 15:35:35 UTC  

There's a very very ugly URL for you lol

2018-01-11 15:38:34 UTC  

Not mining yet. I stayed up til midnight getting the frame built and all parts plugged in and situated properly. I still have to install Linux on the SSD and install the wireless adapter. Then I will start benchmarking.

2018-01-11 15:39:02 UTC  

What do you mean by benchmarking?

2018-01-11 15:39:26 UTC  

If you have to ask...

2018-01-11 15:39:31 UTC  

You cant afford it....

2018-01-11 15:39:47 UTC  

Lol no idea just being a fuck

2018-01-11 15:42:14 UTC  

I'm going to benchmark the rig using NiceHash and other miners to see what I can get. I trust whattomine, but I like finding out for myself.

2018-01-11 15:43:39 UTC  

Nicehash has a good benchmarking function that takes about 20 minutes. Very precise. It squeezes as much hashing power as it can from your setup and modifies its config file to mine the most profitable coin at the time, then adjusts accordingly as it mines.

2018-01-11 15:45:43 UTC  

The only thing I will change on my next build is the motherboard. This one is top of the line, but it is designed to support 13 GPUs. I don't need that since I cannot use more than six 1080TIs on one rig due to the required wattage

2018-01-11 15:46:49 UTC  

If I had a bunch of 1060s, I'd probably swap it out and use them on this motherboard since the 1060 uses far less wattage and I could use all 13 gpu ports

2018-01-11 15:54:54 UTC  

Gotcha that makes sense

2018-01-11 17:53:29 UTC  

Question. I have an extra 1080TI that I do not have a power cord for. It takes a 8 pin and a 6 pin auxiliary. Would it hurt the card to use an 8 pin power cord and an additional 6 pin power cord plugged into the auxiliary, both using separate VGA ports on my power supply?

2018-01-11 17:58:23 UTC  

I don't understand the question

2018-01-11 18:02:05 UTC  

So a 1080TI card has two power ports. One requires an 8 pin and the other is an auxiliary power port that is also required. See here:

2018-01-11 18:02:39 UTC  

My power supply came with 5 power cords that have a six pin and an eight pin on one end, and the other end plugs into my power supply.

2018-01-11 18:03:19 UTC  

The power supply also came with 3 power cords that have just an 8 pin on the end, no 6 pin.
