Show Off Your Mining Rig(s)

[flibberdipper]

I guess everything is too loud

My fault for the video card. I took it out last weekend, but the P4's Delta still hauls ass.

Mine will hopefully be up tonight

[notaniel101]

this is how my current miner looks, 2 7950 in a corsair air 540. Soon I will be expanding though to a miner that isn't in a case.

 

in case you were wondering the fan is normally facing directly into the case, but that would be in the way of a good picture

• MSI Z77A-G45 Motherboard
• Rosewill 1300W PSU
• Intel Celeron Ivy Bridge 2.8GHz Dual-Core Processor
• SAMSUNG 120GB SSD
• G.SKILL 8GB DDR3 SDRAM (PC3 12800)

I did not use a single screw, everything is suspended in the crate with plastic ties for max airflow.

You should

Sweet setup

 

Thanks! Your setup was a good guide for me. I found out the hard way I couldn't use the CPU integrated graphics so unfortunately one of my card runs a little hotter than the others. Went through 2 OS installations after many BSODs and weird errors where my temperature and fan speeds weren't showing up in cgminer. Finally figured out in windows 7 your monitor's cable must be hooked up to PCI-E GPU0 and not the integrated intel graphics I bought.

Ya lets see em

It'll have to be on Monday, sadly they're all back at the warehouse mining away,

@TheDoubleYGamer

 

Where are u selling your Litecoins? Currently tryin to fin a LTC to Paypal exchange website.

[juretrn]

@TheDoubleYGamer

 

Are you mining Litecoins?

Do you think the hardware will pay back?

If I get into it, should I get a 280x or 290 based rig, which would you reccomend? 280x currently costs min. 300 €, 290 min. 400 €. 

[jameshumphries47]

do you run your rigs in SLI??

Yup, I saw that. But those rates in the table vary greatly. So I'd like first-hand experience.

Whats the settings on your 280Xs ?

[TomSWard]

Whats the settings on your 280Xs ?

Just starting to fool around with it now but so far stock voltage/clock settings and -I 13 -g 2 -w 256 --thread-concurrency 8192

I'll post back if I can get any significant improvements

I'll try that, I'm only getting 580 on mine

[TomSWard]

I'll try that, I'm only getting 580 on mine

Yep try that, and add the following to the end: --gpu-engine 1080,1080,1080,1080

That has me at 745kh/s per card, and unbelievably, GPU-Z is telling me each GPU is only 105W (VDDC Power) but I don't think that can be right since people are saying stock 250W per 280X GPU.

 

edit:

--gpu-engine 1090--gpu-memclock 1505

@Henry I sell all of my coins at www.btc-e.com

 

@jameshumphries47 No, I don't run in Xfire. It doesn't help when it comes to mining.

 

@juretrn I would recommend the R9 280X over anything (Best value for your money) But, if you only want to have 1 computer deticated to mining, get an R9 290 or 290X.

 

My R9 280X (OC'd to 1200 on the core) peaks at about 630 KH/s. Averages at maybe 615 KH/s.

But since BTC-E has a minimum withdrawal of $500 for paypal....u must have been making a ton of coins..

[slenderman379]

Hey there folks.. i am new to the scene of bitcoin mining..(i know i am like 100 years late) but i still like the idea and i wanna start mining and stuff.. can you guide me thru what exactly i am supposed to do/know to start mining.??

[ShadowCaptain]

For anyone posting up their mining rig why not also tell us

 

1) what you are mining

2) your mining rate

3) profitability 

 

would be interesting to see how effective your rigs are

Well since this thread got brought up again, I don't think I ever posted pics of everything before.

 

5x290(one missing atm)  and 5x280x rigs

 

Almost all of the other cards, lots of 270s plus some older cards.

All of these are running on 240V.
