Can, got profit some more. only the latest expensive toys are capable for profit. electricity sarawak energy is cheaper than tnb.
industrial rate is doable on small industrial area, 44.1 cents /kwh.

if got more capital go renewables, if dont feel like spending direct nego with renewable operators. offer them slightly better than tnb should be fine.

If you have your own off grid solar solution definitely will profit from a bunch of S9 or any cheap asics you can find. solar solution from china is cheap... really cheap for the energy capacity offered as compared to local operators.

Ah, I see. One S9 can profit how much daily ah? Ya solar solution is the best way to all these mining farms.

IMO don't fall into the trap of solar energy = cheap energy
the initial investment to setup a proper solar grid isn't that cheap also, and don't forget the solar grid isn't maintenance free as thought by many ppl, there are batteries that requires frequent maintenance and require changes after certain years
and those cheap solar solution from china? my friend did some government projects using them, based on their experience with it? better stay away for large scale project that need long term stability

if you already have an existing solar grid, by all means use it
but to built a new solar grid just for mining? i won't recommend it

well compared to US made huawei inverters and battery solutions are actually pretty good, a few LSS running these. for cost wise use cheaper solar board since those are another disposable also, ultimately you would want a hydro plant since its the most stable of all. Solar farms maintenance is not as troublesome as asic mining farm maintenance if you are running on used machines. your initial investment is definitely cheaper than scoring 30 units of S19 fyi.

dont over kill the project, just poured in enough then should be fun. s9 score in about 100 or 150 unit, if looking for daily output of 7200 kwh, space about 20 to 30k sqft should be fine. off grid solution is a lot more cheaper than feed in tariff as more complicated inverter required and works to be done to connect to the grid. 150 units of s9 you are making about 15k usd a month. ROI if kang tao stock is about 1 or 2 months for your s9, solar system another 5 months to go. after that its all money making since spoilt alrd you just change, maintenance is cheap as life expectancy for the component is about 8 months +-. in the end of the day you still make about 1.5x from initial capital. not super lucrative but better than buying property and rent out. buy industrial property copy and paste above you are accumulating wealth slowly and steadily. only down side is you are creating a lot of e waste in the process, who knows later will you get a e waste recycle license and branch out.

mining is always about capital management and leveraging on resources. be creative and play around, if you are aftering stability power system, better be mining host compared to mine yourself. since china has a lot of operator fleeing, rm 25cents per kwh is still good rate.

I watched this item for the last 6 days and today finally see it bidded til the last minute, yet i let it passed.



Still better price than our very own scalpers in carousell, shopee and lalada.

Lelong lelong

HKEPC reports that an RTX 3070, sold in there hundreds and thus potentially cheaper for it, will cost roughly $3,120 HKD (Hong Kong Dollar) each. That's a little over $400 US.

Since these cards are being sold in bulk, it may be that the sellers are hoping cryptocurrency miners elsewhere will take them up on the offer.

Wakakaka scalper boh kamuan final bidded price of $1400 was too low and listing again again and again



Scalper tak buleh cari makan wor sikalang. Later those china one flooded the market these scalpers can bungkus their business and sell their gpu as e-wastes timbang kati. Good for miner can sapu below msrp because these are used infact overused second hand market GPU after all.

Waiting for those ex-mining 3070 to flood taobao. hehehe.

actually miners can group buy the spot if really keen. they are letting go by moq of 100pcs /lot and its selling fast actually.

scalpers with capital and labor can buy these to average down their cost, refurbish and resell again to hold the pricing. since new ones are going for 2.8k +- buying in lots is about 1.8k inclusive of shipping door to door, then the labor, thermal paste and pads cost. their cost should be around 2.1k still got about 20% margin at least to sell.

biggest winner would be pc shops to eat up the stock, refurbish and resell as a bundle pc.

we would see more old cards flooding compared to rtx30 series and amd 6000 and rtx 5000 series since these cards still are useful to certain extent for various industries and usage.

instead of hoping to buying in smaller lot or wait for it to flood the market is nearly impossible, china ban on crypto mining doesnt affect much on eth network total hash and other gpu pow networks. only bitcoin slumped by a lot, and now difficulty has been readjusted so more people will buy s9 and steal electricity to mine lol.

anchovies will have anxiety attack whereas bigger players is greedily eating up the stock as we discuss.

if they are selling gpu means their rig should be for sale also, you dont see them selling gpu mining rigs by timbang right.

My Aurora R12 RTX3090 mining run at 55 celcius
But im afraid of the GPU Memory Junction Temp which is around 100 - 108 celcius
Is it safe?

3090 and 3080 running on gddr6x, junction temp easily hits 100-108C while mining. sometimes will have error stating too hot, performance degraded. spend some time oc and experiment to find your optimal limit and monitor your card to know more about its limit.

It is recommended to upgrade the thermal pads, paste. add more if the aib doesnt comes with back plate thermal pads contact. managed to bring it down 70 to 80C +- in thermal controlled environment.

temp to look out for
gddr6x started to fry above 110C
will die very soon upon 120C.

if you have budget go for water cooling.

Possible for newbie like me, i mean really damn new for all these things to replace the thermal pads/paste?
I swear i'll be very becareful, but im afraid i'll void the warranty or break something else
Budget is not a problem, just don't had any knowledge at all

plenty of online resources available, make sure you buy the right paste and pads. dont get liquid metal.
pads can go for chinese manufactured. Look out for gpu compatible ones, safest just buy minus pads.

Gpu are not so easily broken, just dont unplug the fan and led with force. stickers to remove with ease use stationary blade, the sharp kind.
read around, do your research, buy the spare parts <-- dont buy just enough, a little more is fine just incase you screwed up.

Great to know budget is not an issue so you will have fun during the learning curve with all the trial and error can be done onto it.

Dell ones are easier compared to the other aib.

Have fun.

btw, eth slowly crawling up... u all mining eth right?

Never stopped, will not stop.
On the path to grow a daily 1 mil venture.

Checked some youtube video
Ordered thermal paste, 3.5g for RM58 wow
Gonna break into my 3090 and mod it, hopefully i wont break anything
The 1st day i receive my R12 3090, i break the Sata power cable socket
I asked a technician friend come and check, end up using another power socket, so you know how new i am

erm... how did you managed to break the sata power socket?

if you're really new in this, better ask you technician friend or someone that has done it before to reapply the thermal paste for you

ermmm, i open the dell r12 side panel, swing the psu to fully open, then it bengkok the HDD socket placed infront cover which HDD placed above of the front intake fan.
I asked my technician friend, they'd totally no idea for thermal paste gpu, and keep warning me that i'll void the dell warranty (actually will it void?)
Im gonna replace the thermal paste myself, wish me goodluck

What's the hashrate to get a daily min payout of 0.1ETH by say Sparkpool with current ETH price?

0.1 ETH = RM900?

Or u guys prefer Nicehash?

2700mh/s

nicehash if you dont have 2.7gh/s or you want to have small rigs running on nicehash so you can later pay for hashpower for your sparkpool. sometimes its profitable to buy hash power there.
