thanks for all the advice...its a cost game at the end of day and with vega56 being 295 will prob end up buying them.

IMHO, better to invest in the 5600/5700XT because better resale value, BIOS mod gives good results, good power/hash ratio

While cost game is important factor, stable rig without any babysitting, lights out operation and can be placed in remote DC/warehouse etc. the 5x00 is worth it.

BBT's latest video on 5600XT seems to deliver best performance - check it out

if you guys had choice between vega56 or 5600xt where would you put your money? looking at a 6 rig build on vega56 at 295 but 5600xt seem more expensive(vega consumes more power but my situation allows for free power up to 3KW/hr so not a factor)

btw, great price on those 5600xt Phil..when ready to share source pls pass on Grin

Well you can get 50MH/s on Vega56 @170-200watts, but it does take a lot of work.  BIOS flashing & AMD memtweaking.  Where as 5600xt are pretty much plug and play 39-43MH/s @75-110w depending on silicon lottery.

You can get 49-50 Mh/s @130-140W with 1000 core and 930-950 memory + amdmemorytweak. I have 6 Sapphire Nitro Pulse Vega 56 and all are running. Not quite rock stable, but running.

thnks for pointing that out(50mh/s vega) was under impression 40mh/s would be ceiling limit.  will look into the BIOS flash and memtweak, isnt there a easy option/solution via 3rd party eg..awesome miner etc?

Yeah, but 50 mh/s @200 watts isn't worth it when compared to @39 mh/s @ 90-100 watts on a 5600XT... under equal wattage, that would be @80mh/s for 200 watts worth of 5600XT hashing power... granted you would need two 5600 to get that.

if you have 3KW/hr for free.  I would go with the 5600XT as you can get more hashing for your power ceiling.

this is assuming you don't have either cards and were looking to purchase new cards... otherwise, use what you have.

'The right to privacy matters'
that is a nice size block 8 + eth is good.

how much was the 7.3 gh to buy?

that is about 140 rx 5700



or even more 480's or 580's

It's my farm.
 
I have 26 Vega 64 + 6 Vega 56
          64 1080ti
   and 93 Rx (480 + 580 all 8Gb)    

Nice farm.  

Time to look for newer cards here and there.


As all are a bit power hungry .

I am up to 40 cards right now. looking to get 3 more cards this week.

I have 12 1080ti's they have been good to me but are now long in the tooth.
I have a couple of 1070 1070ti 1080. All are old   So that is at least 15 old cards I have.

I have around 5x 1660 or 1660ti.

and 20 amd 5000 series soon to be 23 of them.

Yes I know, I'm already looking for some Rx 5700 xt.

I see you also have some 5000 series, which ones are better 5700 or 5600? Some says 5600 are better regarding hash/watt

tricky but I think I favor the 5600 a little.

they are close enough that price per hash can be the decider.

ie

 40 mh 5600 at 7 = 280

 52 mh 5700  at 7 = 364

I do find getting a stable 40 mh is a bit easier then a stable 52mh

I am getting 5600 xt  for 269
I am getting 5700 xt  for 389

I am leaning towards the 5600xt for the 269

they are also a bit easier to cool and crowd in your builds.

Quite profitable mining ETH, after 5 days of mining with ~7,3 Gh/s got a block of 8,56 ETH  Cool

ETH is paying you for the coming gpu upgrades.

.... so yesterday when that sushi dev was accused of "cashing out" angered the sushi community and all the hoo-haa eventually crushed the sushi price

So I did the logical thing..... bought some more sushis some at $1.50 and most at $1.8

.... today, I sold ALL at $2.55.... burp, thanks sushi, thanks Binance.


It seems that certain Defi tokens were scams and seems the fees are starting to get back to normal. Right now fees are around 100 Gwei or so while during the peak they were at 500 Gwei or so. Some of those food tokens like Hotdog or Sausage basically went to -100%.

Given the price crash our profitability is less than half of a few days ago. We will see what happens. Seems this sell off was at the same time as the stock market selling off. So it could be nothing more than a dip and continue. However if it was the top then most likely we won't get back to $500 ETH until election results.
defi tokens were a scam from the very beginning, this is a normal bubble. I have no idea how they were accepted for Binance

someone knows someone who knows someone in binance hehe

defi means DEFInitely gonna lose your money

there were no known resistance from 380 till maybe 199

anyways have faith guys, all it takes is BTC to pop again

for those who have gone thru 2017..... aint this dejavu?

that alarming dip before BTC went crazy.....

only difference this time is BTC dominance is NOT 60/70%

I am no expert here but the whole cryto adoption now is far different from 2017

and that BTC breaking 2017 ATH is sooner that we think.

For anyone that likes to look for patterns.. this could be the start of a nice long downtrend  Sad

I cashed out at near peak and made some nice moolahs, all in 5 days.

The DEFI technology is awesome and I bet will be a cornerstone in fintech.

However....

The whole issue here is "yield farming" and obvious scam like them sushi, sausage, pasta etc. is claiming thousand X returns, all of these with unaudited contracts etc. ..... sounds like the era of ICOs to me.

My 0.911 LP tokens staked is still farming sushi though....

meanwhile, another scam HOTDOG... crashed after 5 minutes..... from $4000 to $1

https://cryptopotato.com/4000-to-1-in-5-minutes-defi-hotdog-and-pizza-present-free-fall-on-their-first-day/

Bought sushis at 0.70 - 1.20 range from Bilaxy exchange and cashed out at around 9$.


Don't know if you heard but the Sushi dev apparently sold all his Sushi. There is a thread on twitter about it. He says he did it for the community however it looks like an exit scam to me. I think he made like $10 million dollars with about a week worth of work.

So I would becareful holding this token, today it looks like its -65% already and I won't be surprised if this ends up being another one of those -100% Defi token. So if you took some profits make sure to lock it in at least.

In general whenever something like this happens, its what usually ends up starting a bear market in the crypto market. Too much money is locked into this Defi and there are going to be too much investors that lose all their ETH.

Still grinding it out.  My 115 a day is now 51 a day.

But since august 1 I have pulled in

aug 5.  $  88.66 for 1 week
aug 12 $111.84 for 1 week
aug 19 $205.88 for 1 week
aug 26 $204.57 for 1 week
sep.  2 $283.45 for 1 week

total.     $894.40


sept 9. $ 200+.  so 1100

I spent 4100 on new gear

So if we do 30 a day vs 111 a day

I will go  back to 210 a week.

 I am fine with this.



4100-1100 = 3000.   and at 210 a week in 15 weeks the gear is paid for.
