I have not done my homework, is it worth getting 5000 series CPU's?
Eh, just missed the window.

Managed to get my hands on a few 3090FE only to realise the cooling, while interesting looking, is not as good as the cheapest aib i have.
So i decided to mod it
https://i.imgur.com/fq0TNAK.jpg
dropped temps from 110C to 84C. I'm now able to drop fan speed to 50% and removed the fan on the backplate. The heatsink still gets burning hot, so i might need to create a shroud on the rear fan and channel it through the heatsink.
fwiw, heatsink used is an led/amplifier aluminium heatsink, 200mmx86x22. I used cheap arctic 1.5mm thermal pads to clear the hump on the backplate

Nice! You have great luck with the shuffle. I think Newegg hates me. Hopefully they get some 3060 ti's and 3080's in the shuffle and reverse my luck.
Nice Phil. It always seems like the shuffle is the 3070 card and not the 3060ti or 3080 with an occasional 6800 in there. I got picked for the 5800x which I decided to pass on. I wonder if that messed up my chances of getting the other stuff. Does anybody know if you can get picked for more than one item?
First time I was picked for an evga 3090 3987 and a PNY 3090. It was before I got all the money from the Doge So I just purchased the evga 3987
It was Jan 27 2021 my birthday
Doge took off on
Jan 28 2021.
I won 6 times
1 time I grabbed the evga 3090
1 time I grabbed the evga 3070 with capture card. combo
1 time I grabbed the msi 3070 with ram combo
1 time they cheated me out of a white gigabyte 3070 with a psu Combo
1 time they gave me a shot for a ryzen 5800x I passed
1 time they gave me a shot for a 1200 amd card I passed
I lost 2 times.
So far I spent about 3900 with them
I also found a 3090 for 1950
so I spent 5850 since my birthday.
I am running 180 mh 3090 + 3070
I am waiting on 180 mh 3090 + 3070
I think I am done for now.
360mh earns about 43 usd a day
so 150 days = 6450 should cover everything.
It is an ask for eth to carry on. Beyond 150 days.

There Are a few nvidia 3070 cards
phil do you not like server psus?
they are good but not with the onda boards. the odna need atx to feed the built in pcie slots
this one below uses server psu's well
https://weyimold.en.alibaba.com/product/60743476945-807760477/In_stock_bitcoin_mining_motherboard_HM65_with_8_PCIE_slot_no_need_riser_card.html?spm=a2700.shop_oth.41413.21.270759eaUK5T8L
I have a clone of this one below
https://www.alibaba.com/product-detail/ZA-WKJ1800-DDR3L-onda-motherboard-Onda_60759603861.html?spm=a2700.galleryofferlist.normal_offer.d_title.cc6c15fe9IEuYc
it wants atx.
my super good deal is got on the odna motherboards is sold out maybe late feb I can order them again
Edit:
ETH is now paying 13.01 cents a mh
don't know how long it will do this but
this is about
AMD
$6.50 for a 5700 or 5700 xt
$5.20 for a 5600 or 5600 xt
$3.36 for a 5500 or 5500 xt
Nvidia
$14.82 for a 3090
$12.35 for a 3080
$ 7.80 for a 3070
$ 7.80 for a 3060ti
those are good numbers
once again it could crash and burn, but any of the above at MSRP just buy them.
The worst card at msrp is the 3090 at free power it is about 135 days to break even 135 x 14.82 = $2000.7
phil do you not like server psus?
Can't complain. But the farm has acquired more space we can do 200 amps of 240 = 48000 watts
So 40x 3 card 3090's would be 40 x 900 = 36k watts
I think I may build 2x 3090's with 1x 1660 super. that rig will be about 113+113+28 =254mh and pull 265+265+80 = 610 + 40 = 650 watts
the goal is
1 of these https://www.evga.com/products/product.aspx?pn=06G-P4-1061-KR

2 of these

I don't think the seasonic can do 3 3090's pretty sure it will do 2x 3090 with 1x 1660 super
getting 1000 watt psu's is now hard to do.

getting 1000 watt psu's is now hard to do.
why not do a 3060 instead of the 1660? 3060 can do 60mh @110 watts... unless you already have the 1660.
Yes it can but the 3090's are heavy 265 x 2 = 530 add 80 for the 1660 = 610 add 50 for rest of rig = 660 the seasonic focus is a 850 watt decent psu
I can get them at okay prices. if I do a 3060ti or a 3070. the rig goes past 710 maybe more like 740 watts.
I simply don't want to do that much watts on a 850 watt psu.
I can get the 850 watts psu's easy
I can not get good deals on 1000 watt psu's
I have to take all factors into account.
In my perfect world (yeah right)
I would setup 35 3 card 3090 rigs with 1300 watt evga gold psu's
about a 900 watt rig but I can not get evga 1300 watt gold psu's
sold out
https://www.evga.com/products/product.aspx?pn=120-G2-1300-XR
and they cost 2x the seasonic focus 850 watt
so 2x 850 = 1700 watts 2 rigs
1 x 1300 = 1300 watts 1 rig even if available this was available the seasonic are better.
I have 7 of them on hand

More than enough. the cards just reach the empty slots which means that the rig will be a 3 card rig not more. It is fine as 3x114=342 mh a dead solid rig to the least.
I scored this card today.
https://www.evga.com/products/product.aspx?pn=24G-P5-3975-KR
should come in a week.
I'm surprised you're able to stick to just the EVGA like you said you would with all these slim pickings. I've just been picking up whatever I could find. Beggar's can't be choosers. If you told me 6 months ago people would be paying $2000 for 120mhs of eth I would've scoffed at you. I have 3 cards on the way all mix and match. I have a Gigabyte 3060ti, a Zotac 3070 Twin Edge OC, and a Gigabyte 3090 Gaming. I'm just hoping I can keep them cool enough so they don't throttle.

if bull market is coming with full force then we ROI all our gpus be it 5700xt or 3090. remember when home miners cannot max out their mining rooms because rx 470 4gb? LOL.

I was denied with the shuffle again today but my EVGA 3070 FTW3 from the last shuffle I won finally came today. That card is much bigger than the other 3070 I have. How much room do you have between 3090's on the Onda board Phil when you run it as a 3 card rig?

I was denied with the shuffle again today but my EVGA 3070 FTW3 from the last shuffle I won finally came today. That card is much bigger than the other 3070 I have. How much room do you have between 3090's on the Onda board Phil when you run it as a 3 card rig?
This deal goes live on 2-11 and seems to be a pretty good price for a pre-built with a 3070 for those looking for one. Probably will sell out instantly lol.

I might try to snag this. Any clue how these Dell GPUs perform? I assume they are bottom of the barrel as far as fans and cooling go.
I think Alienware in general has decent reviews but I haven't ever owned one. For the cost I don't think you will get much lower.
In stock as I type this limit of 2 5500xt 8gb for $240.

sold-out I would have grabbed 2.
up to the shuffle
Dam they went pretty fast.
they do 28 mh with ease so 2 do 56 which is over 6 a day after power cost.
80 day pay off on a pair of cards with 2 year warranty.
