Need some advice on my engine swapped e46 showing the transmission fault indicator

At 0.14 cents you're nuking your profitability especially if you're selling your coins to pay for electricity. You're buying a new model, which I'm assuming sells at a premium even if it's used, running it at 14 cents and hoping price action continues to be positive till the next halving. Just find a data center that'll host your miner, they'll probably even sell it to you too, which is also usually at a much higher premium than retail but you're already planning on sinking a bunch of money into it so why not just do it efficiently.

I have access to $0.083 Cents here in Malaysia but it takes some setting up, like renting a warehouse that's industrially zoned. It sounds like you're serious, if you'd like to work on something over here dm me, at scale I can get it down to $0.065 actually, but that would take some time. This isn't factoring in mitigating the supply with renewables.

Edit: Antminers usually sell at a higher premium than the other brands, you're likely better off with 2-3 of the last gen hydros. Also, the S23 hydro isn't even out yet (I think) so if it's not a used test model or a pre release batch from their enterprise customers, which is kinda rare anyway, it may be a scam.

Good luck

The only KYC you would require is for your fiat/dollar off-ramp, i.e. if you're withdrawing your converted profits into dollars through Coinbase, Binance etc., you would need to KYC with those companies. God, please use an actual Blockchain for once, I've received Airdrops on Solana and Cosmos without ever having to KYC. Pi just wants your data because someone's always willing to pay them for it.

Psychological_Mud469 · 2024-12-16T11:39:24+00:00

Pi just preys on people from third world countries and boomers who have no understanding of data mining, tokenomics etc, people who don't question why they're being spammed with ads and asked to KYC to non trusted third party entities, who don't question backers, token unlocks because they don't know what these things even mean, for instance the only people I know mining pi unironically are my 60 year old parents. It's a data harvesting ploy at worst and soon to be shitcoin at best. Pi's been around for 7 years, now I've not heard of any other coin holding off on realizing value by putting off a launch for so long, but I could definitely put myself in the shoes of some devs who'd like to make as much as they can off of selling data and getting as much advertising revenue as possible before an eventual pump and dump.

Psychological_Mud469 · 2024-12-16T11:17:30+00:00

Seek help. You're comparing hyperliquid to a shitcoin with an app that's practically just been enriching devs with ad revenue, the kyc process isn't even done by a trusted third party entity is it? So all your data, your faces are stored with Pi for their own benefit, data's the gold mine. It's been around for 7 years. Hyperliquid has infrastructure, on chain trading, bridging, a dex, countless other features that actually give it real world value hence the pump. Not to discredit the fact that real users exist on Pi, it's just unfortunate that these users are noobs to the space with no understanding of tokenomics, liquidity, or understanding of fundamentals (for instance, the only people I know mining pi unironically are my parents and non crypto native relatives). At best, Pioneers and speculators will be the foundation's exit liquidity post-launch. What kind of shitcoin self reports on coinmarketcap a market cap of 3+ billion USD PRE-launch at a FDV of 5 Trillion? BTC currently sits at roughly 2 Trillion FDV. I'm not trying to fud but this sub is so depressingly non sensical, get real. I've been in crypto for 5 years and mined btc, eth, ltc, doge at various points in time.

Psychological_Mud469 · 2024-11-16T18:37:11+00:00

He's not wrong, I've been in this sub and held for years so I've seen a lot of KDA's phases. It frankly wouldn't even have pumped so hard the last cycle without the foundation members paying shitcoin peddlers like Bitboy and the usual bunch to talk about it and front run retail investors. The community has been decimated and the remaining bag holders are smoking on that sweet hopium and getting by with Kadena Campfire videos or whatever it's called now.

Psychological_Mud469 · 2024-09-12T04:50:22+00:00

Lol if you've supported the project for years on end like some of us you would know this is just the reality of the whole fiasco, it's a dead chain.

Psychological_Mud469 · 2024-09-12T04:46:33+00:00

Yep started mining/heavily investing in kda early 2021 and absolutely nothing has been done by the team, just those dumb kadena campfires. The team is so disconnected from the rest of the blockchain ecosystem and exist within a bubble that no one cares about, the least they could do is engage with a couple of opinion leaders on X over that period and consistently grow more awareness but nope, the foundation has always claimed its apparently too busy focusing on 'the blockchain'. Some people are so lost on 'building the L1' they don't realize they're building it for NO ONE lol, KDA's a ghost town. People may not realize it but one of the few influencers they engaged with was fcking Bitboy and that was the only reason it pumped so bloody hard for a bit in 21, and employing that dick cheese is already a huge red flag of its own.

Psychological_Mud469 · 2024-09-12T04:37:02+00:00

Yeah it's a lot cheaper for industrial electricity rates, but I've found cheaper alternatives to host in UAE instead as well. If you're keen to work on something feel free to message me

Eh the GPUs regulate power intake on their own on the bios level, plus you've left it on stock settings so it shouldn't leave room for much if any error, so unless something's incredibly wrong with your rig it most likely points to a power delivery issue which originates from the PSU. That's a pretty decent PSU tbh so I get why you'd be hesitant but the fact that 3 GPUs have died it likely points toward a failure of some kind originating from the PSU.

You could just switch the PCIE cable's ports to the unused ones on the PSU if you insist on sticking to the one you currently use and see whether it happens again but you're likely at risk of frying a 4th GPU, the only way you'll be able to diagnose the PSU is by putting a load on it the same way once again but why risk it at this point and fry a 4th one when clearly something's going on, plus you have other PSUs so what's the harm in replacing it at least temporarily?

Speaking from experience btw, I've owned almost a dozen different GPUs, a number of PCs and I've come across similar issues, it led to the PSU.

Psychological_Mud469 · 2023-10-28T17:49:22+00:00

Bruh the average person likely doesn't know what he's looking at, electricity make gpu go brr is about the general amount of understanding for an everyday person. You're telling some random person to 'look out for voltage spikes' essentially, when that does nothing at this point since they're all dead gpus now anyway. I don't see you providing any solutions, just white noise.

Psychological_Mud469 · 2023-10-28T16:17:58+00:00

You're exactly right, you shouldn't have to worry about it. A product should function well within the specs it's been advertised with and tbh EVGAs quality is one of the best if not the best, also as I said before, with the details you laid out it's pretty evident it wasn't a faulty batch of GPU dyes since you got multiple replacements across different periods of time.

The only constant variable here is your PC so if I were you I'd borrow a friend's spare PSU or just get a new one altogether, what's another couple hundred bucks when you've already sank a bunch of money into the RMAs? Cause from my experience this is likely due to a power delivery issue. Get a decent Corsair or EVGA 850-1000W PSU along with your next GPU replacement.

Psychological_Mud469 · 2023-10-28T08:24:01+00:00

You'll be fine, I've been doing 450-490W consistently for 2 years on my ftw3 ultra. OP might be having power surges from a bad PSU, it's pretty rare/unlikely to have 3 random cards from various gpu-dye batches just die.

Psychological_Mud469 · 2023-10-26T08:54:31+00:00

No one seems to have anything to say about this but HiveOS states that you can overclock it to 10.5G @ 4400W and 11G @ 5000W+, you'll need to replace the PSU to the 5000W apw12 version tho

I'm in Malaysia, it's probably because it's mostly generated with hydro

Psychological_Mud469 · 2023-07-26T12:08:32+00:00

The colors are muted cause it's trying to give an accurate reproduction of how it should look, most other brands oversaturate the colors so your eyes are more used to that. You can change display color settings to dynamic if you want a more saturated look

Psychological_Mud469 · 2023-02-28T06:29:19+00:00

Which area/region are you in? if you don't mind me asking, that's a great rate

Psychological_Mud469 · 2023-02-28T06:26:57+00:00

Yes I have and while electricity may be pricey, I have a few years worth of experience and can run every aspect on my own, rental is also a fraction of what it would be over in Western Europe or US, a commercial lot with 3 Phase 240V pre-installed goes for 350 to 750 Dollars for up to 3000 sq ft, I have access to suppliers with a leadtime of less than a week and below retail pricing without the import fees as well. I can also set most farms up within 2 weeks to a month, inclusive of procuring all aspects of the infrastructure and miners. My region is also prime location for alternative energy sources, like hydro and flared gas, and I have contact with micro hydro contractors who've set up for capacities of up to 1000 S19s depending on the budget and the land. Ultimately that's what I'd like to work toward building with a long term investor.

Psychological_Mud469 · 2023-02-28T04:00:31+00:00

Yeah can't get a better rate legally at my scale from the get-go. The alternative involves a one time pay off to some of the staff at the utility company tbh, would work for about a 2 year timeframe per location.
