Yeah those are onda mobos plus cases that are on alibaba. Really nice cases with overkill 3700rpm fans. Keeps my 1070ti minis at 60 degrees.
That shirt will be drying very very quickly, that's for sure! Cheesy

How much are you paying in rent for this type of room, if you don't mind sharing? How many rigs will you stack in there?

54 rigs will be stacked there, 432 cards. 88x 1050ti are coming which takes up 11 rig space. The remaining space can be filled with 150-180W tdp gpu rigs like 1070tis.

Rent is $250 USD a month.

The fans are so powerful that the clothing rack will topple over! I wish the rig cases have the option of fans between 2000-3000rpm.
i'm curious though how do you deal with noise and attention, with the spate of break ins do you employ some sort of noise dampening or reduction to bring down the overall noise and attention from the fans ?

Lots of cards starting to pop up online second hand!
Still outrageously priced, but i'm sure there will be some bargains soon.

yes but watch out  for dead ones.

I am looking for:

titan xp
evga 1080 ti hybrid
msi seahwak 1080 ti

at retail or less.

Someone might be having the issue I'm having in my garage, so here it goes:

After I've added couple more rigs to my small garage setup (now 14 1080 ti total), my garage door opener stopped working from outside. Cue in pissed wife.

Did anyone tackle an issue like that? RF interference seem to block the remote signal from outside, extending the antenna to outside did not help (it probably hurt as I did not care for the wavelength of the remote signal vs added antenna cable length)

Any solutions?

psu's  may be issue not  gpu rigs.

get an fm radio  and try to find a channel that gets interfered with whne you turn on a psu.

rosewill tokamak does it.

if you find out a certain psu is doing it build a faraday cage around the psu.

this may work it is hit or miss

Hmm, I have three of those PSUs 1500W Tokamak. Now to think of it, the computer case is supposed to filter some  of that noise. But in my case the PSUs are placed on a wire rack. Would there be any benefit running a wire to from the PSU to ground I wonder.

Computer cases act as a faraday cage - if the machines are in standard cases, they should NOT be the issue.
Might be voltage sag caused by so many rigs in the garage though.
Does the opener have it's own dedicated circuit or does it share a circuit with something else?

Then there is the obvious thing - did you check the batteries in the REMOTE?




the rosewill tokamak give off a ton of rf  he could simply turn them off  to see what happens.

Faraday cages are not hard to design  if it is only those 3 psu's


Also measure the  cable for the antenna  and go exactly 2x or 4x or 8x  the length of it.

No, the PCI-E connectors WILL NOT handle 1000 watts or even close- you're overstressing them at 300 even if they are using 3 pins for +12VDC.
The KNC Neptune and to a lesser degree the Titan were NOTORIOUS for burning connectors a lot because they were trying to push 350 watts (ballpark) through them when overclocked.
You might get away with it for a while, but a lot of folks have BURNED connectors by pushing them too hard.
While the pins have a "free air" rating of 13 amps, they derate to 8 amps in the connector because the connector retains a lot of heat.

That's strange.. this was with +150 core clock and the nVidia 388 driver. However with hashrate I prefer to err on the side of caution.

No, and I would never send 1000w through those adapters. But 300w does not even render the plastic connectors warm to the touch. If they're not even warm.. they're not failing any time soon. I can break out my infrared thermometer and start taking readings for y'all!  Grin

If they're running cool, you're not pulling 300 watts through them.
DO keep in mind that part of the power for a card comes through the PCI-E bus - up to 75 watts per the spec, sometimes higher when the card doesn't properly observe the spec (but that's usually on overclocked cards running at more than their factory-stock TDP).

Even more interesting, I have received two withdrawal emails that total far more than my balance, unless they are accessing my pre-December hack balance.

This should be an interesting conversation if Nicehash answers



It turns out I  did NOT get hacked.  

While the problem is weird, at least its not causing monetary issues.

if i fail my 3 logon attempts (try the wrong password 3 times in a row), I get an email from Nicehash stating that the attempt failed.   That is good.  

A few min. later I then get an email that states a withdrawal request has been processed.  The amount in the email matches, randomly, one of the actual withdrawals that i have done in the last few weeks.  Communications with Nicehash have not led anywhere. they don't seem to understand what I am trying to convey.

Those emails led me to believe that someone was in my account.
This is repeatable.
 
Anyone else care to try to fail their logon to see if you get the bogus withdrawal email?  It does not hurt, just have to reload the page, then logon with the right password.  It will take a couple of hours to get the logon failed email.

Some notes:
- Password reset request emails take about 10 hours from sending the request to receiving the email (2 tries)
- I did get my first 10% hacked account payout late Friday night into my current working wallet

Quick question here has anyone used Dataland branded GPU's.

I have the chance to get some 580's but being new to GPU's and haven't found much in the way of reviews.

Thanks

Never heard of the brand.
I'd be VERY cautious about them, perhaps buy ONE at first to check out workmanship and design quality.

Am I the only one who's next payout at nicehash will be after I reach 0.1 BTC? I should mention I'm mining in their wallet.
This is weird because until today they paid daily. Now it's
Next payout 2018-03-05 13:24
Payout amount 0.10203791 BTC

Later edit: Now it shows it will pay tomorrow. Maybe there's something wrong with their site...

I have never heard of them, but someone else may know about them. Did you find them on an Asian website?

Yes the person I'm dealing with is out of China, A little more research told me that they come out of the same factory as Powercolor; Dataland is just the branding in Asia.

That at least let me know roughly what they were talking about.

I've been turning over rocks all over the globe looking for cards; mostly finding slugs and scammers but this guy has been great so far. I'll let people know how the deal ends. They accepted Paypal so I felt safe enough to go forward with the purchase.

I think he rents space in Malaysia...?

Hashrates look kinda low compared to my 1080 ti testing on one of my Aorus cards - but other cards DO tend to be lower at the high-end due to cooling limits reducing the boost clock.

 50% = 505 sol/s
 60% = 620 sol/s
 70% = 680 sol/s
 80% = 725 sol/s
 90% = 760 sol/s
100% = 780 sol/s

All at +100 core +100 memory, I've done a LITTLE playing around those settings but they are stable and seems to be right about the best hashrate.
The other 1080 ti cards I have (EVGA SC Black, ASUS "blower", Gigabyte 3-fan Windforce) match these numbers pretty much identically up to 80% or so then start dropping off a bit.

Thanks for the responses.
Going to look into lowering the power.
Right now getting 730 sol/s at 250w, fan 60%, temperature 62c. electricity cost is 0.07c/kwh

So I should for sure not use a single pcie cable (has two 6+2) to power the 1080Ti?
2nd card will be offline for a while, seasonic hasn't gotten back to me yet about getting a extra pcie cable.

Anybody else have problems turning off the aorus led in ubuntu?

This is the main rigs shelve. 54 rigs can be placed here. Assume 1.2KW each it will put me below 65KW power. I intend to use no more than 60KW though. 16000cfm air flow. Hot air from rigs directly go to the back of the unit to be exhausted. Absolutely no hot/cold air mixing.

This looks super kool, are those Onda motherboard type 8 GPU cases? Keep posting pictures as it fills up, would love to see progress on it.
