The EVGA queue from last November just hit with a 3090 gaming card for $1900.
Is it worth it?

Thanks for sharing. I was just looking at doing something like this with my L3+ that is sitting in my garage. Winter is coming and I want every bit of the heat its generating in my house.
What are the specs on your duct fan and what speed are you running it at?
Thanks!!
It's an 6 inch inline duct fan from Aliexpress. Exit is 150mm so i bought the adaptor https://www.checkreality.co.uk/large-antminer-cooling-fan-duct-to-6-inch-152mm-vent-for-s7-s9-t9-d3-a3-l3/
They have a few more, there's even some for dual fan miners like the new ones.
I strongly suggest inline fans with built in controller already. Added one to mine but there's this electronic clicking on it that's the most noticeable thing about it.
Okay the 12 card boards are both running.
each has eight cards
4x 3090
4x a4000
and
4x 4090
3x a4000
1x 3060ti
very close to equal
668mh/1.65kwatts
662mh/1.65kwatts
now this is a money setup about 29k. maybe 27k as I got some lower prices on the 3090 I mine over 2000 more like 5000 maybe 6000 so say I am out 21k right now
this earns about 92 a day power is 3.5 kwatts or 84 a day or 15 a day so I net 77 a day
21000/77= 272 days. all gear under 3 year warranties. the evga 3090's all have 5 year warranties.

Not really a sharer, but why not.
Removed the fans from a S9 and tested it with an inline duct fan, with reduced speed.
It is very very tolerable, i could say silent but not bedroom silent, definitely kitchen/TV room plausible!
Miner is underclocked at 8.6V/550mhz/1000W

reminds mo of my portable AC, when the fan (plastic) breaks (the one that vents the compressor and condenser heat). i can't find the replacement fan so i used a duct fan to suck the hot air from the exhaust.
BTW it is a 2hp aircon getting cooled.
inline duct fans are much quieter than the ventilator fans and are pretty durable(bearing type).
just make sure to make routine/preventive maintenance on capacitors after 2-3years, they are the first one to go..always have spares.

Found a source for PNY Rtx A4000 cards
We got 18 of them
They do 63 mh at 120 watts.
They sold out dealer had 65 yesterday and now has 0.
https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=FCBKau5xK00
They arrive monday. I will post results.
I am getting 2 more cases for 12 cards.
I will mix in these with my 3090 cards and have beastly rigs.

so first one came
tomorrow 6+6+5 =17 more.
I am playing with clocks
that is the a4000
It is clocked to
core +10
memory +1400
watts 115
new number below
core -100
ram 1500
watts 111
new settings
core. -200
ram. 2100
watts 129. 57.94 Room is hot.
I will add some heatsinks. But decent numbers
this card is a one slot low power. commercial blower design. power is capped at 130 watts.
bh has stock but bumped price up I paid under 1200 tax + shipping included. they want 1400 + tax
https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1644218-REG/pny_technologies_vcnrtxa4000_pb_nvidia_rtx_a4000_graphics.html/?
smos screenshot. the zotac 3090 also needs more cooling
So well all know I did pretty good with Doge. Should have been better but still very well.
I have found a coin that may do nicely.
XEC
https://support.viabtc.com/hc/en-us/articles/900004339303
I mine it at viabtc.com
I use 1 rig of my sha256 gear an s15 set to low.
It does 21th about 134,000 coins a day
I started when coins were.
0.000022 usd
coins are now
0.000046 usd
I am up to 2.9 million coins.
If you have a lot of sha 256 gear and point 1 unit to this the upside is huge.
134,000 x 365 = 48,910,000 coins mined in a year with 21th. yeah diff will go up.
So say it mines 25,000,000 coins if price moves to 0.00046
25,000,000 coins are 11,500 usd
a 21th machine mining btc would mine .067 btc with no diff change or maybe 0.04 btc in a year at 100k btc that is 4000
So we have 21th of 1100th mining XEC
it is ladder sale set at
0.000091
0.000910
0.009100
0.091000
0.191000
0.291000
0.491000
0.891000
1.189100
we have 2,918,985 coins at 0.000046
I will post back on this play in a month.
Plan is to mine it for 1 year.
It mines at a profit daily.
even with 15 cent power.
as 24 kwatts on low is 3.60 and 21 x .34 = 7.14
that is a $3.50 profit with 15 cent power.
So mine it sell 5 usd worth a day
you bank 1.40 usd cash and stack a lot of the coin.
It is literally no risk
If my power bill was $3.60 for it and I mined 135000 coins.
Sell 100,000 for $4.60 pocket 1 dollar and stack 10,000 coins
It is a no brainer to try it for 10 days.
you make 10 bucks profit
you stack 100,000 coins list them for
0.0046 x 50,000 = 230 dollars
0.0460 x 50,000 = 2300 dollars
the worst you do is make 10 bucks.
which is pretty fucking good.

So to follow up this coin went from:
0.0000220 to
0.0003900 to
0.0002168
I have 4,218,000 I mine 100,000 a day
I sold 2,000,000 I made a few bucks.
I still see a solid pump here if you have a lot of gear point an s9 or 2 at it.
2 s9's will make 35,000 coins a day
list the 35,000 every day in an upwards ladder.
ie today they are 0.0002168
first day mining list
35,000 at 0.0008888
second day list
35,000 at 0.0011111
third day list
35,000 at 0.0022222
fourth day list
35,000 at 0.0033333
go up the ladder for 10 days and assess.
only Ukraine comes to my mind
Thanks -- getting visas and such might be a challenge, but interesting.
I guess a smaller "farm" (50kW) would be easier to get up and running in light commerical areas (say in the US).
Okay you are USA based correct?
Yeah. I would suggest a mixed farm
A few L3+ rigs to mine LTC and Doge.
A few gpu rigs and maybe a few BTC rigs.
Go for
32.0k in gpu
7.0k in ltc
7.0k in btc
hold 5k for fuck ups
you could buy 1 or two of these cases.---- my 2 arrive on Friday I will setup a build and see how they do.
https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.56774805
Thanks for the advice! How'd the new rigs turn out?
i used 2 12 card cases all
good happy to have purchased them
I am buying 2 more cases

Just wondering why you ordered these over the 3090?
Are 3090s still hard to get hold of in the states?
I can get 2 of these for the same price as 3090s, so just wondering if there is any advantage I'm missing?
Sure 3090's 1 for 2300 -2500 usd they do 107-118 mh burn 275-310 watts total.
these a4000 2 for 2300 usd they do 120-126 burn 240-260 watts total.
legit sellers with 3 year warranties .
Also some 3090 2.5 or 3 slot not 2 slot
and these are 1 slot.
perfect form factor for the 12 slot cases I have,
I should have pushed harder and grabbed 24 not 17 but its okay.
Also gpu room has 8 x 30amp 240 volt circuits ready for gear.
So we want gear asap. the 3090's come in slow as fuck and are a tiny bit more money than the a4000
we have 3 L7+ coming
and 2000mh of eth
not enough gear
about 11kwatts for L7
about 5 kwatts for eth gpus
16 kwatts
those 8 circuits can do 38-42 kwatts

(no confirmed ETA)
(no confirmed ETA) I was looking at NVIDIA RTX A2000, price seems to be about 45% of RTX A4000 from one of our suppliers.
(That is if they could deliver anything
)
It has interesting specs (a cut down/slower clocked/slower memory RTX 3060) and maybe no LHR tricks?
If one looks at stock settings, RTX A2000 performance could be about 64% of RTX A4000 at 45% price & 50% power.
Maybe RTX A2000 memory can be tweaked and still be at 75W board power.

I have one of those 30L Omens (RTX3080 / I7-10700K). It is a very nice looking case.
Currently NBMiner running on windows is getting about 89M @225W (card power, have not checked total from the wall).
Card is running fans at 100% (afterburner, core clock -175, memory +1000, PL 76). I am going to try hiveos when I have the time for it.

We grabbed 3x 3080 omen with water cooled cpu --- yet to arrive.
We grabbed 5x 3070 omen with water cooled cpu --- all very good cards
We grabbed 1x 3060 ti omen with water cooled cpu -- card works well
We gabbed 2x 3060 ti pavilion with air cooled cpu - cards are good.
all of the hp are fe models with a little bit of a mod.
we grabbed 2x 3060ti dell alienware these pcs are not as good as the omen pc's
total of 13 cards 10 are here and are all good
3 come next week. the 3080's
So if anyone wants an omen with a weaker msi 730 in it let me know. It is a nice rig you can put in you own card and pull the 730.
Most of the GPUs these days... if you find any in stock you can safely assume its LHR.
Anyone know of a list of LHR and non-LHR GPUs? There seems to be no consistency in labelling even
within a brand. There is also a lot of contradictory information about how to identify LHR.
Hp.com omen desktop use
3060ti fe
3070 fe

all are good
New evga are all bad (lhr) other than the 3090's
asus v2 are all bad (lhr)

MSI just get 3090 and I can not tell the difference with any of their products
oh dell alienware
the

the omen with water cooled cpu are a decent rig.

Card is running fans at 100% (afterburner, core clock -175, memory +1000, PL 76). I am going to try hiveos when I have the time for it.
