one more questions, i'm in dilemma between pickup up sets of rx6600 or rtx3060 lhr for my first rig. which one gives a better overall value like price, power consumption, and hashrate?
3060 lhr give about 34 mh/s at 120w compared to 6600xt 31 mh/s for 57w on eth.
3060 on alts giving better returns compared to 6600xt as profit wise is still about usd 1.7 / card compared to 1.4 per card on 6600xt.
last checked differences per card is about RM500 to RM800 range
say 40 cards to make up 1.2 gh/s cost for 3060 is 115k, 6600 is about 92k.
to roi from eth 6600xt is a better choice, total returns about 10 months with mobo, peripherals and others cost factored in. however alts will see a decrement of 30 to 40%
3060 will take you longer because of higher initial investment, alts will see a drop of about 20%. which means after pos still safe on alts. <-- or directly mine alts.
we would put a realistic expectation on 2022 end of q1 for eth fully pos

6600xt is cooler means lower thermal control costs. looking at about 3280w(eth) 4200w(alts) of heat generated can cool via a 1.5hp ac giving more than 12k btu.
avrg on your inverter ac will be on plug 600w 24/7 (a/c cost RM250+-)eth (rm300+-) alts
30605800w (eth) 6600w(alts) you would need a 3hp ac estimated electricity cost on inverter is about 1.2k+-

Of course a/c is just an example, in actual people uses fan, air purifier, evaporative cooler, growth tent, ducting and various cost effective ways to keep the place cool.
heat throttling on gpu will decrease its efficiency and life span.

you decide and make up a strategy based on your budget and place.because when the number started to scale, you look at this on a whole new perspective.
