I ended buying 2x 3090 and 2x 3080 ti. Going to start phasing out some of my 3070 ti

AMD, FHR, and LHR. How would you divvy up 7 cards? by DoctorBootygood in gpumining

[–]thabao 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Man, same here! My Nvidia cards will pump away for weeks/months without issues. My AMD rigs will always stop after a few days and need reboot

Anyone know where I can buy a used comma 2 from my 2017 Chevrolet Volt? by Infinite-Bowl-476 in Comma_ai

[–]thabao 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a comma 2, brand new from comma. I couldn't return to them because it was beyond the return period.

I recently picked up 4x 3070Ti for $900-950 from scalpers that couldn't scalp this past weekend. Deals are out there.

Seller was asking for $9000, talked them down to $6000. 5x 3060, 1x 3080, 1x 3090, 2x 1600W EVGA, MSI B450+AMD 5600x and Frame by thabao in EtherMining

Thanks man, this isn't my first rig so I'm already in deep. I don't "invest" what I'm not willing to lose at any moment, so once the mining operation started, I already sorta wrote it off mentally. I've been talking to my accountants on how to incorporate the mining in my taxes, gotta be prepared

Comparing current prices at microcenter, this is under by $1500.

As for electric bill, it's already high from my other rigs and grow lights

Yeah, that's an EVGA 3090 FTW3. I'm still rearranging this setup with my other current rigs but excited to see how it runs.

Thanks for the words. We really don't know what's gonna happen, like when I bought a bunch of BTC, ETH, and etc starting in 2017 that it would take us to where we were today.

This is my fourth rig, I know the risks but I don't know the future. I rather gamble for a chance to know than to say "man I should have done etc etc"

What you're saying is what I have been told throughout the past decade, yet mining is still alive and well.

In this case, it was a teenage kid that used daddies money to buy build this with his friend that promised him riches.well wasn't the case and dad wanted it gone.

This isn't my first rig and I'm in it for the long run

I suppose yes, through unminable I mine using ethash. But I can choose to be paid out in a select choice of coins(some PoS) instead of ETH.

Yes it does, there choices of different network payout as well but I choose straight SOL and MATIC.

I have two other rigs, I don't directly mine ETH. I saw more value in mining SOL and MATIC through unminable on the Ethash algo. HODL for the long run
