I went and got four more cards today. Two more RTX3060 and two more RTX3080. Chances are good I am getting an AMD 6700xt as well. I just can't stop expanding!! I love this so much.

Hey Everyone! Here is a rundown of my home farm at the moment. I am constantly expanding so I hope that this will soon seem very small, but right now it is big news for me! Here is where everything is at: Ethereum: 2,238 MH/s 7,139 watts (-$771) = 1.55 Ethereum a month @ $4,300 CAD = $6,665 = Total minus electricity = $5,894 Raven: 1,388.5 MH/s 9,438 watts (-$1,019) = 41,500 RVN per month @ $0.165 CAD = $6,847 = Total minus electricity = $5,828 Total net income per month at todays prices = $11,722 I have all sorts of cards, and I would like to detail how my OC settings are on each of them in the coming videos. For now I am running AMD 6700xt AMD 5700xt AMD rx580 8gb Nvidia: 3090, 3080ti, 3080 (LHR and full rate), 3070ti, 3070 (LHR and full rate), 3060ti (only LHR), 3060, 2070 super, 1080ti, 1080, 1070, 1060, 1660 super. I would love to try out any other cards, but this is currently everything that I have!

Hey guys! So I finally got my 8 card Raven 3060 build up and running! This is my first full build right out of the box, using all new parts. Usually I get a few cards at a time and just piece things together. This is running all Zotac 3060 cards. I believe that these are non LHR cards as I do not see it on the box like my Zotac 3060ti/3070 cards have. I guess that means that if I want to mine it on Ethereum using NB miner or LOL miner I should be able to. I believe that the cards get about 38 MH on eth, so that would mean the rig would do 304 MH, give or take a few. Right now it is reading 186-188 MH on Raven at 1090 watts (plus what the motherboard draws). This is a software reading, I have not attached it to a power meter. My all-in costs to build this rig is roughly $6200 Canadian. At current prices of RVN this should payout (before electricity) in roughly 7 months. After electricity it will be closer to 8-9 months. Not bad not bad!

Just a quick chat about what I want to do going forward with the channel. I will be going through all of my rigs 1-by-1 and talking about my power supplies, cases, graphics cards, overclock settings, software, efficiencies and revenues. I found this information hard to come by when I was first getting into this, so I want to bring 100% transparent information out there that will hopefully help some of you out!

I purchased a 36" drum fan to try and get some more cooling across these cards. The 3080, 3080ti and 3090 cards put out an absolute ton of heat. Did it work? Not exactly. The air was very diffused, and therefore did not push across the cards hard enough to make a difference. This sort of fan would be better suited for a warehouse situation where you need to just get all the hot air in an area moved somewhere else.

Just working on a temporary build while I wait for my new motherboards to show up. This is an old ASUS board that actually used to be my Primary PC board before I got into mining. It has all kinds of issues. I can't get more than 5 cards to run on it (7 pcie slots), half the time the ethernet port doesn't work (there are 2 and I need to constantly swap it). It works well enough as a temporary setup though, and I would rather have cards hashing than not hashing. Running with two EVGA RTX 3060ti, two Zotac 3060ti and a single EVGA FTW3 3080ti

I just picked up 8 3060 Zotac Twin Edge graphics cards. In the mail is a 8 card case from spiderminer.ca which I will be putting these all in to! Stay tuned for that full build out. It should be a lot of fun! I am really excited to get this set up.

Going over my home cryptocurrency mining setup. Currently I am split between Raven and Ethereum. I am doing roughly 800 MH on Raven, and 2,000 MH on Ethereum. Roughly 11,000 watts right now. This is my full time occupation for right now, and I absolutely love it. I am growing my mine every chance that I get. This is bringing in about 1.41 Eth per month and 800 Raven per day. Cash value is roughly $10,000 Canadian, give or take a bit depending on the day. Electricity costs are somewhere a bit less than $2,000 per month. I am cashing out to grow the mine, and to support my family. It would be nice to hold onto more coins, but bills are bills, and my babies need food! I will be updating this soon!!

One of the fans on my Zotac 1070 mini bit the dust. The new fans that I ordered for it showed up the wrong size and do not fit, so I threw on these spare ASIC fans that I had. Card runs great so far! Mid 50's and full power to the card and 27 hashes Ethereum. Prior to this I had it at 100 watts to reduce power consumption, and it was doing 22 hashes at 70C.

Well I went and built myself a chia miner. It uses the following components 3x 12tb NAS drive 2x 8tb NAS drive 1x 1tb seagate firecuda nvme 1x 2tb seagate firecuda nvme AMD AM4 5800x CPU 32gb ram ASUS TUF motherboard This is able to do 8 plots in parallel, and plots each one in roughly 6 hours. I have not yet figured out automation on this, so it is still pretty manual so I am not getting nearly the efficiency as I should be. I am doing maybe 20 plots a day right now this way until I have more time to spend figuring it out.

The summer months are on the way, and my mining basement is getting insanely hot. I had a cheap box fan in the window prior to this, but it just did not have enough power to keep everything cool. **Well into the summer I got even more rigs, and even this fan could not keep up with keeping the basement room cold. Time to brainstorm for more power!

So I recently got a 1660 Super. While trying to overclock this to maximize my Ethereum profits I could not get it past about 24 megahashes. It didn't seem to matter how high I cranked the memory OC.

Here are some of the crypto mining rigs, currently running ethereum. I talk about some plans to swap over the 120v power over to 240v

One of my rigs crashed and I went to go check it out. Turns out that the power cable from the PSU to the SATA cable had fried and one of the pins was melted right off.

Just going through a few of my cards to clean them. Did an Asus blower style, Asus Strix, Zotac mini, and an MSI GTX1070

Well I sped up the mobile 3070 a bit, it has been running stable with ZERO issues for over a week. Temps stay below 70C, and if you want to max the fans it will run under 60C. **2021.09.12 - This has been running for months now with no issues. The fan's in the system might not be as good as new though. I am running it with a box fan under it blowing straight at it. Keeps the temps at like 66C or so. I have also traveled with this laptop for 2 months and it works great. Very light and powerful. Better than my old work Dell.

I had 13 Nvidia cards on a B250 mining expert which were recently moved over to Rebtech motherboards. So now I am consolidating some random Nvidia cards that I have onto this board. Power comes from a 2400 watt server PSU from Parallel Miner. This is an older video from youtube, I got it up to 14 Nvidia cards, and then took it down to 0 cards due to issues

Sorry about all the banging in the audio, that is my lovely children running around upstairs. A whole slew of packages arrived from Amazon this past week and I am now opening them up. Getting into my first ever server PSU's and various other items
