CPUs are older than that.  Just looked it up, they are Celeron G3220's, 8GB DDR 3 in HTC Pro BTC boards.

yeah I did.

I don't know for sure. What is the cpu?

I know any mobos that uses celeron g3900 or newer should work.  The oldest cpus I have now are the g3900 they work with 3000

series.

I even have some mobos that use ddr3 ram with celeron g3900 they are fine. if you keep them all the same.

3060ti up to 4 tested and work
3070ti up to 3 tested and work
3080   up to 3 tested and work on the 6 slot onda clones

If I could cool them I think they would do more.

I also have a buddy with some 12 slot boards running 11x 3070's with g3900 cpu and 1600 speed ddr3 ram


at btcshiner best buy has been outstanding to buy the seasonic 850 and 1000 watt units.

Dam.  Was hoping the Asus website for that card was not a error.  The 6700xt's seem to be a bit over priced for what they deliver vs the 5700's.

That white Asus Strix 3090 goes for some ridiculous money on eBay and stockx.  Went for all the cards today so I am in for another you weren't selected email; in about 6-7 hours.

Anyone looking for a 1000w psu these seasonic's are in stock as I type and on sale if you are a bestbuy member at $161.99 limit 9

https://www.bestbuy.com/site/seasonic-focus-gx-1000-1000w-80-gold-psu-full-modular-fan-control-in-fanless-silent-cooling-mode-10-yr-warranty-black/6414258.p?skuId=6414258

I kept the 5700XT I got from Newegg couple of weeks ago.  I was able to get it to 54mh at little over 100 watts fairly easily but driver would crash occasionally.  Since its in my desk computer at work that I use frequently, I dialed it back down to most stock settings other than the power reduction, so getting 51mh at about 110 watts for now.

I have 10 Dell systems with 5700's also coming in a couple of weeks that I bought at a pretty good deal.  I plan to pull the cards and sell off the rest of the system for whatever it will bring. 

phil - Did you see my H81 Pro BTC mobo question above?

So My winning shuffle  asus strix 6700 xt from the 18th of march showed up today.

Can't change any setting to it on windows 10 so it is doing 153 watts and 43mh.

I will switch it to smos in a few days.

I tried asus tweak  = fuck you phil
I tried after burner = fuck you phil

Still turns profit for now.

I will post back on it later.

Oh gpu-z say bus is 192 not 256 so it is going to be a 47-51 mh card at 130 watts eventually.

I really would like to get the white asus strix 3090 card today.

What is coming next to the house.

an rma  power color 5700 50mh

the arock rma arrived new  sealed retail box does 26mh

sent both the ASRock and the power color out the same day.  no sign of the power color and what is more annoying is the power color was not  on a mining rig. Just worked on my thread ripper rig which does not mine with the GPU.

So I am due

1 amd 5700 xt
1 nvidia 3070 on back order
1 mini sha mining node

Good luck.  They put it up late today, didn't think they were doing one, so thx for posting it.  Not really interested in a 3090, so just the 3060 and for kicks, the PS5, for me.

Newegg Shuffle is up.

Some asus top of the line cards

3090 strix black or white models
3090 tuf
3060 tuf

https://www.newegg.com/product-shuffle

I picked the 2 strix
Wish me luck

Anybody got any idea how much I can get for a couple of nvidia MSI 1070 Aero? These cards are giving me the lowest mh/s and thought might as well try to sell them asap and get the newest gpus. I checked ebay and the few selling are about 450-500 bucks and most from japan. I never pushed them too hard and all are taken care for, but they're out of warranty.  Thanks.

Downpayment by default should be returned in double if cancelled by seller, but I believe they fine print set it different in their terms and conditions.

Sucks phil.  I watch Best Buy a lot myself.  For the first time since I have been watching, the CyberPower R9 3080 system came in stock for a few minutes today, so I said screw it and jumped on it.  Will replace this 3060 ti system I got with it as my main home system. 

I have 4 3060 ti systems I have bought over the past month.  Considering pulling the cards and putting in a open air rig and just selling off the rest of the systems to recoup some of the cost faster.  I have a couple of open air rigs minus the GPU's laying around collecting dust.  Will any of these newer cards work on the old H81 Pro BTC boards?  Keep seeing conflicting info online.  Be nice if they would as everything I need for them is there but the GPU's, could get them going again.  If not, mobo suggestions for something that can actually be bought right now and run at least 6 GPU's?

get trezor/ledger for ETH and erc-20 tokens.  best bet.  The other one you do need to be a bit knowledgeable as it is really not as user friendly

So After trying for 6 months to get a Nvidia gpu from Best Buy I finally snagged one on March 12th a PNY 3090 for 1900 usd minus a gift card of 100 so 1800 bucks.  With all taxes and shipping counted in.  I was supposed to get it on Sat the 20th go to my local store in Brick NJ.

 Guess what fuck you Phil we cancelled it.

I am not gong to be able to get it.
However I am arguing for compensation as they tied my money up from March 12 to March 22 and cancelled without my permission.

Maybe I can get a 75 or 100 dollar gift card from them.  As this was their fault not mine.

I would prefer the gpu but at least a gift card helps a bit.

So at the moment.

1x asrock        5500xt  RMA coming on weds.  26mh
1x power color 5700xt      RMA coming on Fri. 50mh
1x asus strix 6700xt       coming  on thurs       55mh?

that is 131mh to add to current 2500mh
 

I am eventually going to buy one of these, as they by far appear to be the most secure wallet.  The only downfall (for my current situation) is that its bitcoin only.  I currently keep my btc holdings on Gemini, but eventually I will move a majority to my own control and will definitely use the coldcard.  My current dilemma is storage of the ETH I mine, and I guess eventually the additional ETH I will probably store myself 

admit it you enjoyed it too much

yup trezor always asks to press the button in the HW wallet. also the pin is also safe from malware because-you are the only one able to see the screen, every time you connect trezor the pin in the screen is rescrambled again and again.

trezor password is more like a security layer for accessing a wallet/address of your choice: different passwords = different account

softwares like Neo’s SafeKeys v3 https://www.aplin.com.au/ can help against keyloggers

now for the lazy ones (including me), you can glue trezor to your monitor(at the side, upper part)...there your wallet is right beside your browser and apps ready to be seen (send address verification, etc.) and press the button hehe

a keylogger is the biggest fear to the software wallets if the trezor solves this by forcing an manual click of a button to withdraw or speend funds on metamask that would be good but the ledger hardware wallet hack has soured me on these

hardware wallets have an additonal attack surface thier software on top of intergration with metamask etc for defi
i just use the software wallet and never store my private key digitally

Back before hardware wallets or Electrum or MyEtherWallet I just did it the old fashioned way and used a paper wallet. Went to that bitcoinaddress website, saved it offline, doubled checked the hash on the offline computer. Then I created about a hundred different addresses, made each private key encrypted with a password that would take millions of years to crack. Bought a $20 printer at Walmart, printed out a few copies, then destroyed that printer office space style.

Then would send everything to one address, and when I need to spend it I would send to wherever I need to send it and the change would go to the new address. It was very time consuming however I didnt mind because I knew it wasn't possible to get hacked in any shape or form that way.

Years later I realised that I didn't need to keep destorying $20 printers when the private key was encrypted anyways. But the printer was cheap. They were like $10 each plus a $10 environment fee.

Those were the good old days...

Coldcard is really nice too.  You can use it like a trezor or ledger or you can use it like an airgapped wallet with an SD card.  You can power it with a 9v battery so it never touches a computer also.  Or put the bitcoin on an OpenDime and send it to someone by snail mail or carrier pigeon   Its very easy to get a keylogger on your computer and it can happen to anyone regardless of your skill level.  Almost everyone has had some amount of bitcoin lost, whether by trojan/keylog/bad exchange/lost paper wallet/mixup in the seeds, etc. 

Stupid cheap is my saying.

or penny wise and pound foolish .

I have multiple trezors.
