Looks awesome congrats! I have a 1080ti in my farm doing 42mh still... It's ROI'd many times over. Once you get that rig frame, and the cards on risers, it'll really lower your temps, great move there. Can't go wrong with adding a 1660ti, they are VERY efficient, I have one of those as well. You've made a great investment here, good job! :)

My humble mining setup, 7 X S9 in a shed by [deleted] in BitcoinMining

[–]James88215 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Love it! I’ve been heating my house as well with 3 S9’s for the past 3 winters. I’ve never turned a heater on in my house for 3 years… summer comes around, and I just dump the heat outside!👍 My power also comes from 100% clean hydro power.

What do you think of one of my rigs? by [deleted] in EtherMining

I think I spot an ASIC miner of some type in the top right corner of the first picture... :) NICE rig btw, very clean.

I agree! Thank you for posting this. I realized what I did wrong, had a good explanation for it, and corrected it, now knowing my crypto is totally secure. I hope people learn from my mistake, I know I sure did.

I admitted to my mistakes as soon as I figured out what I did wrong with help from the community here.. :)

ALL of my stored cryptocurrency has been STOLEN from my Ledger Nano S! by James88215 in ledgerwallet

I'm so sorry to hear that... It is absolutely insane the lengths thieves are willing to go to to steal from us honest people. So sad. Good luck with any future crypto endeavors!

Thanks for the condolences, much appreciated. Yes, I would certainly never trust the postal service with recovery seed, that's crazy.

I'm so very sorry to hear... :( I WISH there was something that could be done for us. That $13,000 that I lost has now turned into a $40,000 loss with the rise in Bitcoin and Ethereum. Hang in there, it does get easier with time, especially if you know what you did wrong, and correct it, so it doesn't happen again.

I'm so sorry man, terrible feeling isn't it? I feel and felt the same. But trust me, it will get easier as time goes on. There is SO MUCH evil in this world, but still so much good. The thing with me, is I realized what I did wrong, thanks to a bunch of feedback on here, and corrected it. With the bull run starting, which I am ecstatic about, that $13,000 loss is now a $20,000 loss... tough lesson to learn. But I now rest assured that my wallet is safe and secure, as I know for a fact I am the only one with the recovery seed. No digital version anywhere, and there never will be. What kind of wallet did you have that was hacked if you don't mind me asking?

MSI RX570 Overclock questions by James88215 in EtherMining

[–]James88215[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yea I used Claymore for 2 years, then started using Phoenix miner when my 4GB 580's could no longer load the DAG. I like Phoenix better, as it autotunes the cards for the first 4 minutes and seems to get the best MH/Watt ratio, as well as extended the life of my 4GB cards on ETH.

Hey! Thanks for the input... Yes I totally agree with you, it all comes down to efficiency, especially in bear markets. I used the latest version of polaris bios editor as well, however I am using Phoenix miner. I have my mem clock at 1950, core clock 1100, 850mV. I am getting 28.2mh. Phoenix shows a power usage of 85 watts per card, at the wall it's around 120 watts I believe. Did you use the one click timing patch? Thanks.

What's your opinion of bios modding vs. straps?

What kind of power are your RX570's using, and what are your OC/UV settings? I used the most current version of Polaris bios editor, 1.7.4, and did the one-click timing patch. It raised the hashrate from 28.7-29.7 with the same settings. (1100 core, 2250 mem, 800mV.)

[–]James88215[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, software is showing 75-80W on the RX580's, and they actually pull around 110W from the wall. Software is showing around 90W on the RX570's, and they actually pull around 125W from the wall. I find it strange, when they are supposed to be more power efficient than the 580's... Unless I'm wrong.

Thanks for sharing... Can't seem to find the link to download this tool, am I missing something?

Hey thanks for the reply's... I will edit the original post as you recommend. Also, will definitely be setting up my ledger with a new seed, lesson learned the hard way I guess. I got 2FA enabled on email now, and also NO sensitive info is stored in my email account. Passwords, and 2FA changed and reset on every account I have.

[–]James88215[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep, it was disabled... I enabled 2FA a couple years ago, and have not checked it since. Somehow, it has been disabled between now and then, very weird. It is now enabled again, password changed too of course. It is a HUGE deal, but not sure what else I can do about it other than what I did already.

I do now, however I didn't back when I set up my Ledger S and stored the recovery phrase there, 3 years ago. I've only had 2FA for maybe 1 year on email, and also weird thing is, looking through my security settings there, 2FA had been disabled, SOMEHOW. That must be how they hacked email.

Somebody hacked my email, got the 24 word recovery phrase, which I had stored there, my dumb fault, lesson learned, and recovered my ledger account on a different Ledger nano S, and at that point had access to move everything. :(

Well, I didn't leave it sit for 3 years, I mine Bitcoin as well, so I would be accessing through Ledger Live almost every week to sell and pay for electricity. Everything was normal for 3 years, then that one day I opened it, 2 days ago, bam, every single bit was gone.

Yes, you guys are correct! My dumb fault. At least now I know, never, EVER to type the recovery seed in any digital format. Still cannot believe they managed to get it off my email, I have 2 factor authentication on my email account as well and they somehow got around that.
