The car of course is a Viper.

But I'm more interested in your rig: you used a grate as a frame: how do you attach the cards? Just zip ties or did you use another device? They seem to be attached by the panel with outputs, so hanging down in their longest dimension. Seems like a super simple and fast way to create a mining rig! Really interested in knowing more about this.

Nope, not a Viper, though I have owned two in the past.

They are all hanging with zip ties. Since most of my cards are blower style, hanging them vertical allows for the hot air to shoot upwards. I can also throw a box fan on top to move more air. It is very simple but effective.

Cool rigs bro! Just some basic questions: What kind of room is this you got your rig in? Is it big? How do you handle all the noise and the high amount of temperature the rigs spit out? Im dealing with those issues right now thats why im asking Grin

Thanks. It's all in my attached garage. In the winter I have a window vent blowing cool air in. With the door open to the house it keeps the lower half of the home warm all winter. In the summer, the ambient temps of the lower house/garage keeps everything cool and the window vent is reversed to blow the warm air out. There are better ways and I may change it, but this is working for now.

Can anyone guess what car is sleeping for the winter?

I like this thread. No hating or negativity! Regardless if these cards are a good value or not they most definitely are the coolest looking ones Grin

Cool rig man, keep it up!

Hi Viper,
How do you like the Titans Xp compared to the 1080ti? Do the net returns on the XP’s justify the huge premium over the 1080Tis? I see that you have a lot of Titans. I’m a newbie and want to build my rig. I ask because of the shortage on the 1080Tis, I may have to bite the bullet on the Titans. Thx.

Well, when I could get the Stars Wars editions for $1138 (THX 1138 in case the fans missed the price reference), it was worth it. At $1200 for a reference model, not so much. With the Ti's around $920 - $999, the collector edition Titans give a 5% - 7% boost in mining performance with a 15% - 20% better power efficiency over the 1080ti. They definitely run cooler than the Ti's. The advantage was also being able to get so many without waiting because NVidia allowed two per customer of each faction. I could order 4 more the next day and the next, etc. The added advantage is they will always be worth more than a 1080Ti or standard Titan Xp percentage-wise because they are special. I just wish George Lucas would have named his first movie THX 1038 so Princess Lea would have been in Cell Block 1038 and the price of Titans would have been $100 less. Cheesy

Well, it's a loaded question and I'll give a loaded answer. On the XP's, right now I've got the power levels set to about 80%, with RAM at 6000 and GPU core at 1733Mhz-ish. That gives me roughly 720 - 740 SOL/s. But before you scream rippoff, I have a mini rig with a couple 1080TI's that can do the same with mild tweaks... but the Titans use a lot less energy at 80%. It's around 225 watts. The TI's use 275 - 300 watts to get the same result. Now, I can get 810 -820 SOL/s on the Titans by upping the power to 110% - 120%, but my consumption jumps to 300 watts and I start to get diminished returns. If I had free power it wouldn't matter and I'd leave it at 820 SOL/s.

My 1080's average 510 -540 SOL/s at 65% - 75% power. Interestingly enough, I have two cheapo MSI reference cards in their own separate rig doing 545 SOL/s, beating all my other EVGA and Gigabyte 1080's, I can't explain it.

Total Hashrate is about 20k with what's in the picture.

Hi mate, i'm a bit new into mining but already got a 6xti rig (strix) and looking for a efficient spot (high cost of energy here) I decided to go for 70% TDP (std clocks) and getting around 620/640 Sols/s @ 170-180W / 55 to 65º C. Just curious of why a more experienced miner as you can go for those results of 550 Sols/s ¿? I mean I understand you're going after effiency too, but your numbers seem a bit too weird compared to mines, and I doubt if i'm doing/calculating something wrong.

I'm also today making OC testings and they seem good, only at the clock level because Mem doesn't matter too much, even at -500, but std mem clock is the better (hash/W). Don't you OC? risky?

The 520 - 545 SOL are on 1080's, not TI's, maybe you misread. I'm running about 70% - 75% power to get those numbers. My small TI rig averages 690 - 720 at 75% and 720 at 80 - 85% depending on the coin mined. Average temps in the high 50's to low 60's, I don't exceed 65C.

1070ti can get up to 530 sol, I would also highly recommend 1080ti

Just wanted to share a pic of my rigs in the dark. 18 Titan XP's and 12 1080's in this setup.
Two Gigabyte GA-B250's and one 990fxa-ud3 MB. Running strong.

https://image.ibb.co/hz8tqn/20180217_005712_resized.jpg

Looks nice! about how much profit each day?

About $100 - $110 after electric costs if cashing out 100%.
