what is this "brake pedal" you speak of?

Another question.
I got a 2400W server psu along with a 750W psu for a 12GPU rig.
When my rig dies for some reason, does not happen too often, but when it does, the server PSU keeps the GPU's running.
Im looking for a way to get around this problem, any ideas?

depends on how good you are at diy electronics.

one way is you can use a relay to control the 2400. a 12v output on the 750 powers a relay that the 2400 is plugged into. but relays that control that amount of power may be hard to find? you would want something that can switch 3000 watts at 240v (i assume the server relay is on 240v). so 15+ amp 240v relay with a 12 volt coil would do it. make sure you use a big safety margin.

another way is maybe the server psu breakout board has an on off toggle switch? much easier to use that as its low power. same deal relay powered by the 750 opens/closes the power switch on the breakout board (NOT the switch on the server psu itself). that can be a much lower powered relay as the switch on a breakout board hardly handles any power. but check with the maker of the breakout board. a slightly modified add2psu style relay might be able to be used it this case. the add2psu would connect to the server psu breakoutboard switch contacts.

I was about to trash my D3 into the South China seas..... but with DASH this good - all the cubes are hashing away mining DASH.

Isn't DeepOnion the coin to be mining on Baikals?

Bitmain D3 only does X11 coins.

DeepOnion uses X13 like Bitcoin Diamond.

Older Baikal models like Minis, Quad and 900MH Giants can do X13 in addition to X11, Qubit, Quark etc.

The newer Baikals like X10 doesnt support X13 algos.

Getting a PCI error in windows with one of my GPU's.
The most of the info I can get is this:

PCI Slot 11 (PCI bus 9, device 0, function 0)

Does this mean its in slot 11, i.e on a 12x GPU mobo, the last slot? Or in slot 9 as suggested by the PCI bus?
Does this mean it should be listed as the 11th GPU in nvidiaInspector?

Thanks

From my experience it could be anywhere. Windows doesn't usually report it right and the electrical layout is usually different than the physical layout.

what is this "brake pedal" you speak of?

do you guys run your different nvidia gpu classes (ie 1070 class, 1080 class etc) on different algo or switching strategies? like 1080tis are better/worse than 1070tis at some algos?

i have 2 470s and 460 that stay at eth on mph, and at the moment my 3 nvidia (1070, 1070ti, and 1080ti) are lumped together as one worker and all mine whatever i choose at mhp. should i split the 1080ti out and run it as its own worker and let it run independent? whattomine seems to suggest that but it varies and from what i gather its not the most reliable thing there is.

jeez life was easier when i was all amd

but i retired my 380/390s and i must admit playing with the nvidia stuff is kinda fun.

Yeah, imagine 160x 1060s in a 42U rack. 5 racks of these for MOQ.

Already ordered sample of mobo + case + PSU , the server version 8GPU , 315$ + shipping .

Surprisingly they are quoting me more expensive price for CPU , ram and SSD.

CPU: Intel Pentium G4400, unit price is $75USD

RAM: DDR4 2133 4G, unit price is $85USD

SSD: 120G msata connector, unit price is $77USD

Should be perfect for 8*RX570 doing XMR while pulling 800W for whole system .

Apologies if this is a beaten-to-death topic, but what mining OS do you guys recommend for nvidia GPUs? SMOS or nvOC?

Windows 10

That looks really nice but there's now way we could do 50 pieces for the minimum order. It's too bad, because I don't think we could build one for that price.

Found this on alibaba

Prebuilt 7,8,13 or 16 GPU rig. Either barebones (add your GPU, cpu, ssd,ram) or prebuilt without GPU, or with 1060s. Very attractive price and form factor, but will be loud.

I am trying to ask the seller for specs and pics of the mobo.

Alibaba link https://www.alibaba.com/product-detail/super-8GPU-ETH-bitcoin-rack-mining_60722507480.html?spm=a2700.8443308.0.0.jKSS6b

Spacing between cards is non existent except for the 7 gpu version, so it's probably not for high power cards.

Edit: got pics

Thanks phil, grabbed 2 of the psu. I'm using a freight forwarder but should still be worth it.

the one I have is doing very well running 5 1080tis and a ryzen 1800x

Edit: Grabbed 6 instead, in batches of 2. They are too good to pass up and might as well grab some in advance.

Phil can you comment;

Basically, what's the best cherry-picked set-up today for a trio mining rig off 850W PSU?

two blowers and a mini if in a case.

https://www.evga.com/products/product.aspx?pn=11G-P4-5390-KR

https://www.amazon.com/MSI-GTX-1070-ITX-AERO/dp/B06X1GZB5F/ref=sr_1_1?

and here is the link to the you tube video

https://youtu.be/JBhFJKDE-ps

Do you think this would work;

2 hybrid 1080ti + 1070/1070ti mini
3 hybrid 1080ti???

it is all about if the case will fit them.

the hybrids can be closer and still cool. but the radiators are big.

you should fit 2 of them in a bigger sized case not sure about 3. but if they fit you will stay cool enough.

So... How long does the bitcoin network take to drop an unconfirmed transaction? One of my transfers I initiated a week ago is still unconfirmed in memory pool...

Viabtc transaction accelerator is chronically overloaded. I tried confirmtx.com but that was just a scam that wasted my time and $4 worth of btc. Avoid like the plague...

If you sent with little/no fee, you are at the mercy of the network; but if you see the TX in the blockchain explorer; its in the mempool waiting to be processed still..... Gotta love that fork BTC did to make BCH...... Totally sped up the network.... *shrug*

@marvell there are some pretty tight system permissions to do stuff with the hidden folder that contains the startup/start menu items....

like you can't create a shortcut in there or the root, you must make one in a separate folder than move/copy it to the startup folder.

Its these details that make me hate MSOS.....

ebate to ebay with all deals is

269.99 + 269.99 = 539.98 - 54 ( 10 % ebucks ) is 485.98

minus 5.40 for 1% ebates is 480.58 minus 2% (10.80) for paypal mastercard is 469.78

Damn good deal Phil.

yeah and they are really good psu's

better then the evga 1600 g2

close to the evga 1600 p2

evga 1600 g2 is about 370 so 2 are 740
evga 1600 p2 is about 420 so 2 are 840 and sold out asking for more.

corsair 1500 runs 450 so 2 are 900 vs 470 very happy to get this today.

If I didn't already have so many spare P2's and T2's I'd pick a couple up, hopefully someone else can get some good savings and jump on that - thanks for sharing as always Phil.
