Meanwhile we're at 154 pages on this thread, heh! Might be time to think about the "Seventh altcoin thread"? Cheesy

I'm so annoyed I have literally ran out of space in my house. Mining is obviously going very, very strong currently and I can't see it ending any time soon (as opposed to 2014...). New paradigm?

New Years day will be thread 7

Not sure what to think about 2018.

way way way better then 2017 ?
way way way worse then 2017 ?
somewhere in the middle of that ?

I am mining for now.

Happy to report nicehash paid my 0.1 for this account's current mining.

I only started mining this year but my gear is already paid for - I am not operating on a warehouse scale though. I still keep adding GPUs if I see a good offer but 2 rooms are already used up just with mining without getting to close to the power limits.
I tried a power line adapter for the basement - it does work in the basement but somehow it makes the entire internet connection unstable which is weird and not productive.

Next step would be to rent some small hobby room somewhere (preferably in a cheap electricity area) and expand like this Cheesy

I ordered ten more mobos.

Five six slot
Five eight slot plus four riser

Should come on fri the 5th or Monday the 8th . I was looking at the case for sale and I am pretty sure it needs to use a lot of short cards. Not sure I need it.

Are any of the 8 slot for sale? I'd like to get two. Can you recommend where I can buy two if you're not selling?

no commitment on me selling them.

last set of sales I priced at a very low price and 1 rma killed all profit.

1 sample direct from Sidonia of [email protected] is about 180 to USA use paypal and you are covered.

amazon has it for 275

https://www.amazon.com/Mining-Motherboard-Graphics-LGA1151-D8P-D4/dp/B078NTX8T6/ref=sr_1_2?

I was selling mine at 170 and making 10 bucks

I don't think I will sell that low.

If I sell any of them at all it will not be 2 of the 8+4 for 340.

I may do

1 six plus
1 eight/four as a package with no returns or rmas I will pretest boards and ship to USA only.

the J1800 six slot does come with a built in cpu.

No sales or pms until they come.

I also may send each pair with ram and with usb sticks for smos nvidia.

2 board Package deals only fully pretested loaded with nvidia smos and an email of your choice

Out of curiosity, you mention MSI, ASUS & Zotac... but but what about EVGA? any thoughts on their 1070ti's?

All but one of my 1070 ti cards are EVGA SC "black" model.

I just wish they'd quit being sold out everywhere most of the time - even EVGA is sold out on them a lot of the time.

The other one I have is a Zotac Mini - works well, matches the performance exactly vs my EVGAs except it runs a little warmer (expected), but it doesn't appear to be a ball-bearing fan so it ended up being the last GPU I plan to buy that doesn't have BB fans.
(I had Gigabyte non-BB fans start failing a LOT the week after I got this Zotac).

Gamers are probably not TOO ticked at us miners this time around - the current round of price jumps didn't start 'till just before XMas, so most of them had plenty of time to get "XMas upgrades" done first.

Yeah, I really like that 70ti Black as well... a single 8-pin power connector to boot! Been searching for a 2-3 but no luck yet. Thought I had 1 for Fry's pickup only today but when I clicked checkout, it said insufficient stock... even though it still says instock on their site for my local store. Oh well.. i did get 1 Asus Rog Strix 70ti ordered from newegg today. Thought i had a second ordered through them on ebay but they cancelled 1 of my orders. Back to the search tomorrow.

I got this card today

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01K1JW8CW/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

same day shipping was the biggest reason why.

While I love amazon I just can't stomach the tax fees on big ticket items. Sometimes I can find no tax merchants on amazon but its rare.
So I have to stick with Newegg and BHPhoto for no tax and free ship.

in NJ

Newegg = Tax 7%
BHPhoto = Tax 7%
AMAZON = Tax 7% but I have a prime visa = -5% so 2% net

Why are you using 110v?

Those are all 240v my dude - we didn't buy the 240 outlets with the slit because my electrician already had those, and asked if I'd be ok with these, I said hell yeah, because I'm the only one in there, and I'll know not to plug any 120v in those. If someone else does, oh well.

Oh, OK. I know they will work fine, even if they are rated for 120V, but I prefer to go by the book

I'm using NEMA L6-20 and corresponding PDUs. I could have used L6-30 and more expensive PDUs, maybe I'll do that for my next expansion.

Isn't the pole, along with anything else right up to the point it reaches your meter, the responsibility of the electric company? They should fix it at their expense.... of course who knows how long that might take. :/

Yeah going to start making calls on Tuesday see what happens. Not planning on any more immediate purchases, what I have now will take up the 100A at 240 so I'll sit tight and see what the future brings me. I'm just stuck at what I have now. I have a friend who has a 20k sq foot building that said he'll let me move rigs into, but he's not super reliable and I would have 24/7 access to my rigs and space, so we'll see.

Just seems like it's always something. And it's ... always.... something.

What's so special about that case? Won't a rosewell work just the same and 1/3'd the price?

Also not fucking happy. All day at the warehouse running the new breakers and electric. Found out I don't have 300A or now even 200A, but 1 pole is fucked so I am limited to 100A because a fucked up pole, forgot what the electrician said, but not happy because I'm now at max capacity unless I rewire the entire damn building.

Some things just get better and better.

20A breaker on every outlet. Don't know if it will handle the load though.

Yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay

The ONDA B250BTC-D8P 12 GPU MINING MOTHERBOARD is available in the USA from this site:

https://www.cryptomined.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&products_id=356

He also carries cases for that board.

Yeah it's $45 shipping to US. Makes the total $230+ and god knows how long it will take to get here.

lol they want $150 to ship a case to US. This is worse than alibaba/aliexpress, but its nice to see some new stuff thats available without having to dig around on those other sites.

That is probably the best rackmount design i've seen yet to allow the use of these 1x pcie slots and fitting 12GPU's in a 4U case.

It does look nice, finally one with room for 2 PSUs. For now I've given up using cases and I just hang my GPUs from wire racks though.

I eventually may try one of those ondas. What beats me is why they create cases with space for only 1 PSU, that's definitely not the best way to go about it nowadays.

Isn't Cryptomined in Hong Kong area? I've looked at his gear a number of times and it always shipped from Hong Kong/China. If he has them in the USA then that is a great price imo.
