Hi there. I'm newbie in cryptocurrency. My pc running 24hours and i want to make use it for mining. Maybe starting with rx470 or gtx1060 for ethereum mining. How to setup my pc? Atleast my pc can generate some income. If the income good enough i can invest for a better hardware. Just for now i want to experience myself my pc generate some income. Otherwise still can use it for gaming. Any whatsapp group that i can join? Wanna be full time miner if successful.

Im doing some light mining too. Using Kryptex. No aircond. Below 3% rejection. 0% stale. Use pc for google, dload movie, youtube & dota.
RX470 / 23.5MHs / 66c / 61watts / underclock RX580 / 32.5MHs / 58c / 89watts / underclock GTX1080 / 24MHs / 55 / 115watts / underclock + oc vram GTX3060Ti just arrived. How to check vram temp? Should i get s9i miner or just add more gpu for mining? |

QUOTE(kyo_kusanagi @ Sep 28 2021, 12:33 PM) You can use GPU-Z (at sensors part) to check it Tq for the info Only new GPU support it if not mistaken , GPU like GTX 10XX or older are not available. kyo_kusanagi liked this post

QUOTE(greyshadow @ Sep 28 2021, 02:13 PM) if mining at home, i won't recommend a S9i, first the power consumption is very high at 1.3KW and it's super noisy I can built shelter outside my house. if the return is high then i dont mind about power consumption. For now my pc can give me usd200 per month (current rate usd43k/1btc). I dont know how much i can get from the s9i. Any info?it's like running your hair dryer for 24x7 |

QUOTE(greyshadow @ Sep 28 2021, 02:27 PM) https://minerstat.com/hardware/antminer-s9i I can get s9i for rm1k in good used condition. My house electricity can be considered free. And also all using high gauge wire. In my bedroom already got 4 point wall socket and each can support up to 5KW load. The limit is only tnb supply.your ROI will be very very long unless you have free electricity also you'll have the risk of burning out your house wiring especially if they are old and aren't properly laid |

QUOTE(maskcooler @ Sep 28 2021, 06:13 PM) nice. Maybe he want to get coolest as possible. But the electronics got temp tolerance. As long as not exceed max temp it should be ok. I just clean the dust. And its better to make sure the best air flow for casing. I got rx470 & rx580 running 100% in 1 small casing for 24hours. Corsair carbide air 240. No problem of overheating. No aircond. I already change air flow direction. Not the default 1. If u use good thermal paste maybe temp can drop few degree. But not much. Gpu fan also 50% and below. Im doing mining. In theory yes the lower temp the better electric conductivity. In reality i didnt notice any performance different. Dont know if he play game & push the card core clock to 100% or more then become overheat. Mine is ok when play game. Even max core clock speed also 80% fan speed no problem.weird my friend told me he change regularly. I was shocked but he say is normal thing. So i came here to clarify. he changes it almost every 6 months. This post has been edited by Cruxs: Sep 28 2021, 06:45 PM |

QUOTE(jett138 @ Sep 29 2021, 03:20 PM) Buy if electricity is free, buy a lot since you make back the 1k in 2 months. the rest of the months are pure profits, after you mined enough sell one year later at Rm300 per piece also make money. S9i should be about 600 to 800 range btw My house got big compound. Its better built small room for it. If i rent a shop etc worry about safety issue bcos outside of my neighborhood is kampung area. Lot of burglar. Maybe i just put few units. Not large scale mining. I also worry about antminer reliablity as its not comes with warranty. Atleast can get roi. Bcos i live at terengganu. There is lot of limitation as hardware supply & support.And yea, any new house with 3 phase can take up to 40kw which is 40,000w do your own maths to see what are you limitations. tnb is not an issue. can always request for more but is it worth it to do on a residential ? .

QUOTE(sonypshomer @ Sep 29 2021, 03:07 PM) This is my Alienware R12 1000W PSU, looking at sockets, seems to me there are 16 x 6 pins to 8 pins to GPU to Mobo to Peripheral all using the same connector cables, So i wonder if i were to use this PSU to power GPU only outisde the case on mining rig. Say RX580 rig, each GPU only using 1x 8 pin connector and 87W of power. Can i use this PSU to power up 11 x RX580? Most of the times rx580 running less than 90watts for 32mhs. But beware of power surge. Sometimes its going up few watts. Prepare some power reserve for the spike.![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() |

QUOTE(mrtresynth @ Sep 29 2021, 05:33 PM) Default bios. What brand is ur RX580? Im using kryptex for mining. Reduce core clock from 1366 to 1060. Others all default value. The kryptex software already boost 1 step of the vram timing(not the frequency of vram). And sometimes the hashrate also drop a bit. Sometimes down to 30mhs.This post has been edited by Cruxs: Sep 29 2021, 05:53 PM |

Done mining on my rtx3060ti with 450watts psu. Will do finetune for better hashrate & lower power consumption.
