Topic: New 16 gpu industrial style miner review. Will post details soon__updated - page 2. (Read 2798 times)

We are currently in the process of designing our sheet metal chassis and then integrating our multiple power supply solution into it.

Our GPU supplier has recently made the P102-100 GPU available to us so this is what we will be offering going forwards as the cost benefit of P102 vs P104 is favourable.

So in approximately 4 weeks we'll be running a batch sale for an initial batch of 120 x 16-GPU mining systems with these specs:

SKU: Ethereal Capital P102-100-X16
GPU: 16x NVIDIA P102-100 5GB GDDR5X RAM
Ethereum / Ethash Hash Rate: 800 MH/s @ 4100W (+/- 2.5%) (note estimate from manufacturer specs, TBC by actual benchmarking)
Zcash / Equihash Hash Rate: 11,000 Solutions/s @ 4500W (+/- 2.5%) (note estimate from manufacturer specs, TBC by actual benchmarking)
Monero / Cryptonote Hash Rate: 12,800 H/s @ 2400W  (+/- 2.5%) (note estimate from manufacturer specs, TBC by actual benchmarking)
CPU: Intel Pentium Processor D1508, Single socket FCBGA 1667, 2 Core, 4 Threads, 25W
RAM: 4GB DDR4 UDIMM (expandable to 128 GB DDR4 ECC RDIMM)
Storage: 16GB flash storage (expandable via 6 x SATA3 ports and 1 x M.2 PCI-E 3.0 x4)
Backplane: Supports up to 16x PCI-E GPU's at up to 300W TDP each
Network: 2x 10G Ethernet Ports
Remote Management: 1x Dedicated 1G Ethernet Port, IPMI 2.0 with virtual media over LAN and KVM-over-LAN support
Power Supply: Either 4 x 1400W or 5 x 1200W Delta Power Supplies in N+1 redundant configuration (TBC)
Cooling: 6x 4500 RPM 120x120x38mm Delta fans with PWM speed control
OS: EthOS
Display Output: VGA
Dimensions (L x W x H): 750mm x 550mm x 200mm x 20kg (approximately)

I would consider ruuning there after I do the 1 week at nicehash mining zec

Would love to see that thing do it's stuff on https://forgetop.com/

I just don’t get the lots of small cards approach. A 7 gpu 1080ti rig will outperform this on most algorithms, at significantly lower cost.
7x1080ti gets you 5400+ sols, 266phi, 140 x16r, and 14k neoscrypt.
Pretty sure 16x 1060 equivalent cards can’t touch that..

These fit on a three foot shelf.

They are about 31 inches .

They can be clocked to use 1350 to 1800 watts.

So at pushed clocks in a cheap power setup.

2 x 1800 = 3600 watts

A 20 amp 240 volt circuit is 4800 watts derates to 3840 watts.

This means 2 rigs per ciruit.

A 30 amp 240 volt circuit is 7200 watts derates to 5760 watts

Which is 4 of these clocked at 1400 watts

It is nice to see that the flexible power usage is available with them.

They would be dense which is a good feature.

I really think that these would be nice if buysolar and I get our second solar array going.

A simple 10 by 10 shed would allow three three foot wide racks each with 5 shelves.  That would be 15 units.

Pulling 21000 to 27000 watts.

We could do two sheds and that would be all the array needs

Thank you very much!

Mining data centres typically use shelving rather than traditional 19" racks, so that is how you do it.

I got the 24 foot size

Info Pls

these look awesome, will consider getting a few for our shop

Have you seen/had any experience with the newer model?

your specs are for the newer model.

8000 sols using 2900 watts
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


The one I have has the p106-100

4400 sols using 1500 watts

mine uses the single  delta 2400 watt unit psu.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The newer model  was to have a metal shell around the  aluminum frame.

Seeing as OP hasn't posted detailed specs, I contacted the seller and got the below specs on their P104 rigs:

SKU   Ethereal Capital GPU Mining System P104-100-X16
GPU   16x NVIDIA P104-100 4G GPU
CPU   Intel Pentium Processor D1508, Single socket FCBGA 1667, 2 Core, 4 Threads, 25W
Backplane   Supports up to 16x PCI-E GPU's at up to 300W TDP each
RAM   4GB DDR4 UDIMM (expandable to 128 GB DDR4 ECC RDIMM)
Storage   16GB flash storage (expandable via 6 x SATA3 ports and 1 x M.2 PCI-E 3.0 x4)
Network   2x 10G Ethernet Ports
IPMI Remote Management   
1x Dedicated 1G Ethernet Port
Intelligent Platform Management Interface v2.0
IPMI 2.0 with virtual media over LAN and KVM-over-LAN support
Power Supply   3x 1200W PSU (UL certified)
Cooling   12x 120 x 120mm fans
Dimensions (L x W x H)   750mm x 390mm x 235mm x 20kg
Ethereum Mining Speed (Ethash)   600 MH/s @ 2500W (+/- 2.5%)
Zcash Mining Speed (Equihash)   8000 Solutions/s @ 2900W (+/- 2.5%)
Price   11500 USD excluding freight, import duties and taxes
Minimum Order QTY   50 units

I would be interested in seeing these specs for their P106 rigs, but didn't inquire as the MOQ is a bit too high for me.

For the price, it's not a terrible deal.  With current prices, ROI is about a year, but it's also worth noting the extra peripherals.

looks slick as hell, i want one

So the STH review labels this as a mining rig ideal for remote data center deployment.

But how do you deploy something like this that isn’t even remotely rack mountable? Is the data center supposed to just leave a couple of these in the corner with some extension cords running to them?

I have all 1000 speed switches.  but this problem does show up once in a while.

I have modem- router - 24 port switch -switch - router - switch - router

  Most mining runs on the 24 port switch the router is address 192.168.0.1

the second router  is address 192.168.1.1   
the third router is address 192.168.10.1

I moved  the mac mini from the 24 port switch to the second router problem ended.
                             

I estimate  that the garage has had more then 250,000 usd in gear pass through it.

Back in 2012 when I started I had:
 12-14  2gpu rigs  all sold to gamers after 2-5 months . Max power pull was about 9kwatts.   =  20k
It had more then 1000 usb stick run in it.  -------------------------------------------------------  =  50k
Maybe 35 s-1's  ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- =   20k
then 25 S-3's  --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- = 12k
as many as 11 spondollies -------------------------------------------------------------------------- = 9k        111k

3  rockerbox ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ = 500
a few s-5's -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- = 2k
some avalon 4.1's ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ = 2k
 The tube from friedcat.  ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- = 700
Some box shaped thing from fried cat. -------------------------------------------------------------- = 500    4700

50 little gridseeds.  =============================================== 10k
17 gridseed blades. ===============================================  9k
35 avalon 6's =================================================== 35k
22 s-7's ====================================================== 15k
 3 downclocked s-7's ==============================================  1k
10 s-9's ======================================================= 20k   90k

3 avalon 721's =================================================== 2500
2 avalon 741's =================================================== 2000  4500

100 rx470's and rx 480's -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 30k
10 rx 460's ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 1500
3 rx 560's ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 500
2 rx 580's -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 700
3 nvidia 1050tis -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 500 33200

20 nvidia 1060's ___________________________________________________________________ 7k
16 nvidia 106-100's ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 5k
10 nviida 1070 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------5k
20 nvidia 1070ti's ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------11k
5 nvidia 1080's ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------  3k
50 nvidia 1080ti's --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 30k  61k

above is 304400
below would be at least 15,600
so at least 320,000 in gear has run in the garage !

multiple mobo's
crap ton of cpu's
ram
psu's
cases
fans

a dragonmint demo is coming

i ran in to some issues running these on older switches as well.. ensuring the conventional ports (not just maintenance) were gigabit capable ensured proper compatability and connectivity.

these can be stacked too..

they are fun to hoist onto ladders and store on the top rack of your stack

the open frame is great for cooling.

your garage has come a long way from your 4gpu rigs eh phil?


 

What I like about it:

1) the size it fits on a 3 foot shelf
2) you can tame the sound via underclock
3) the 16 slot board which allows  16 gpus to run off the small server

Now that it is working I will do more videos  with sound meter and power readings.

longer video

https://youtu.be/68EGwGnhk1g

Wow.

the  local  conf file





I clocked low on purpose  to keep sound down

4278  sols  doing about 1200 watts-  I will meter this

cpu usage of 28.9%
cpu temps 48c
ram used 2.9g of 3.8g  about .877g free
