Yeah, things are moving quick! You also on VTC at the moment?

on normal scrypt - for now.. cos i'm feeling vtc can be quite harsh on the GPU.. just a feeling. biggrin.gif

I find the 280x new batches that I have are quite tough to undervolt, anything less than 1.140v set in trixx will crash the miner when going full blast.

Mobo is MSI 990FXA-GD65 with 6 pcie, AMD Sempron 145 cpu. Just using molex on the risers and ignored the 6pin connector on the mobo. Luckily no incidents when it came to detecting all 6 gpu in Win7 64bit, with help from modded drivers.

wah,,msi mobo with many pci-e.. i sked use them la.. too many cases in bitcointalk.. laugh.gif

Which mean for my 1000w rig, single phase only can put around 12-13 rigs..  rclxub.gif

better just define how many GPU per 1000W rig.. i dun think your 1000W rig uses 1000W or 1100W from the wall rite? biggrin.gif

Guys,

What's the maximum watts can single phase electrical supply can support? Let say, can i safely install 10 mining rigs that each consume 1.5 kilowatt with total of 15kilowatt plus one a/c on single phase electrical wiring? Or this setup need to run on 3-phase electrical supply?
*
better you define 1 rig is how many GPU and what spec powersupply.. biggrin.gif

for some 1 rig is 2 GPU while others is 5-6 GPU..

How much power it draw for 3x R9 290 rig? and 3x 280x rig?  wink.gif

depends on how you tune it..
dun ask me, ask your kill-a-watt reading, cos that's what tenaga gonna charge you (at the wall reading).. not what forumers say your rig's power will be..

Yup i swapped the pcie slots different positions and even swapped the usb risers with the extra spare ones.
ENERMAX MaxRevo 1500w ...
all GPU connected via powered usb risers directly to the psu. None are connected to the mobo. devices attaced is PS/2 keyboard, 8GB flash driver with BAMT 1.3
all GPU uses powered usb riser directly connected to the PSU. it's pretty much the same like my 1st rig....
maybe tomorrow will try to reflash the bios. today just too tired

huwaaaa bad luck day~...... while getting the rig to work with just 4x powercolor 280x, 3hrs into the grind... suddenly hear explosion like firecracker, and burnt smoke smell... dismantle the rig and checked, 4th GPU capacitor blow..  mad.gif  cry.gif  .... bad luck day. swapped the gpu. maybe RMA back then try again 5 gpu setup. sad.gif
*
ops.. RMA time..

feiton's stock for powercolor ar? biggrin.gif

TC of 8092 works no problem in BAMT, so far KH/s of 320 per card (2 x 280X)

Although 1 GPU not being detected, will resolve that after

cheh baru posted the above and now I have a Dual-X unit that runs 1.000 biggrin.gif 925 / 1375 pulling some 300kh/s from VTC.

I'm impressed. Didn't use the Dual-X cooler though.

You sure? Hrmm. I have Sapphire R9 280X Dual-X and Vapor-X, both are adjustable.

As for casing, even for 1 GPU it's still really hot. It's very different from running a game. I manage to work it well with my N200 casing, single GPU but my CM JetFlo fan on top has to be at full blast, even so my R9 280X Gigabyte Windforce variant had to go full blast too, hovering at high 80s and low 90s.

jet flow is useless.. you need delta fan 80-92 mm at 5000rpm.. if you want I can trade and top up for the dual X cooler.. biggrin.gif

nice system.
is the jetflo fan nice,i am plan to buy it but abit expensive.

for serious business, usually people use San Ace, PAnaflow, and Delta..

all those gentle typhoon, jet flow , noctua etc.. all for consumer grade.. yeah quiet but dont have the proper static pressure to feel it hitting your hand..

Yeah, BTC/USD down so all altcoins / USD also down.

Just need to wait it out biggrin.gif

Currently have 5 + 4 x 280X running, adding another few later today.

My plan to get the extra cards mining in existing PCs has failed as both of the cases are too small  cry.gif so I have 3 options :

1. Buy 2 new cases
2. Try to see if the board with melted PCIE-16x slot still works
3. Buy another board / basket

The new one would run on BAMT to save money  smile.gif
*
what case you want? I got spare Air540 case if you need.. top part I made a bracket to mount a 280x..

so if you got mobo with 2-3 PCI-E 16x you can put two in the air540 and one hanging top part of the case.. effectively 3 GPU.. biggrin.gif

kk,actually not necessary change fan since currently air flow is good but the jetflo is tempting smile.gif
just that room temperature is warm,have to switch on aircon.
*
if you been reading the btc forums long time when they were tweaking GPUs for bitcoin during those lean income days (when btc asic just hit the market).. the key is to tweak it well to be cool and still not to use aircon

obviously since electricity is eating a significant chunk into their daily mining profits.. biggrin.gif

Ooh, that looks like a useful case, can use for downstairs PC and add 2 GPU there (only 2 PCI-E, but can upgrade in future biggrin.gif)  Need good airflow as the case I have now in that PC is small and also has 6 x HDDs in it.
let me recall how much i got it 2mths ago.. give you 15% discount lor.. cos only use 2-3wks.. biggrin.gif

but you have to get ready to expect it wont perform as well (in cooling) as your basket rig leh.. since it still have surrounding walls. but since it resembles a PC. still presentable in the office.
I think fitting 6 HDD is ok.. it got alot of space.. biggrin.gif

Yeah, this to be used for downstairs PC so needs to look half way re-presentable , I understand temps will be higher, that's expected in a case. But better to have an extra GPU or 2 running.

PM me details when confirmed (with courier delivery assuming you have box)  thumbup.gif
*
the box dun have cos very huge ass.. removed it to fit my car..

no need courier le.. just come over your place with the casing and pass to you.. haha

ok this weekend will try to recall how muchie then pm u.. maybe sunday when free-ier.. biggrin.gif
