done12many2 got a reaction from kirashi in Will M.2 SATA SSD work on a M.2 NVMe slot?
These are the replacement M.2 parts in the service manual. All of them appear to be NVMe. I'd suspect that the M.2 is not tied to SATA controller so it may not work.
I've attached the entire service manual in case you need it.
Good luck.

I know that what I do with regards to mining upsets some people, but regardless of what anyone thinks or feels, the fact is, it is not only profitable, it's extremely profitable. Even when the market is low and supposedly "unprofitable", most of us that have been doing it for years know that we mine for tomorrow's profits, not today's.

Numbers are way off this is what I get on the calculator. Also its bad form to not tweak the power settings down for efficiency. I only have my 3080 at 59% power target and its getting nearly the full potential. Factoring in what I sold the 2080 for (which also was purchased through mining mostly) it took less than 3 weeks to have a free 3080 since I got it in October at retail.

Yea, a 10k investment 3 years ago is now buying a 215k house. Best return I’ve ever seen.

By the way, my wife has the crazy mix of alcohol, vinegar and something else that she made up for the kitchen counters. It's now become my official go to rad cleaner. She knows nothing of it.

Thanks a lot @done12many2. Yeah sure; i resetted Nvidia Graphic Driver settings to factory. Now results are improved and basically (plus minus 50 Points) the same with power limit normal and 108. Even if Userbench is not reliable, im now perfectly in the average.

My 3060Ti arrived from OCUK just now. The same settings that get 62MH/s with my 3070 get 60MH/s with the 3060Ti. Don't understand it but happy.

done12many2 reacted to Entityy in Will my motherboard still be able to control fan speeds if I connect my fans to a hub?
Thanks for the help. My motherboard has 4x 4pin hybrid fan headers and it says that it will automatically detect what I connect to it so I should be fine

done12many2 reacted to Hairless Monkey Boy in Will my motherboard still be able to control fan speeds if I connect my fans to a hub?
It looks to me like the fan hub is the type that connects to the motherboard for fan control, and then splits the signal to all connected fans. So the motherboard will control the fan speed. You'll have to read the manual of the case to know for sure.

Not sure if you caught the part where I've been doing this since the beginning of 2018 or not, but I do appreciate your concern for my HVAC system.
Based on your response, you more than likely assumed that the bulk of my mining operation occurs in the climate controlled portion of my house. Fortunately, it does not. Only a hand full of GPUs, (mine and the kids gaming GPUs) mine within the the climate controlled portion of the house. Here in Virginia, most houses have basements, which is where the majority of my mining equipment is located.
During the summer, fresh air from the exterior of the house is supplied to the rigs and exhausted back to the outside.
During the winter, the fresh air/exhaust to/from the outside is cut off and the rigs heat the 1,100 square foot basement (85 to 90f). We then leave the door to the basement stairs open and heat rises from the basement up the stairs where is sucked into a filtered return for my central HVAC system. The central blower then circulates the heat throughout the 1st and 2nd floors of living space. For the last 2 winters, we haven't had to use our electric heat pump or gas furnace for any additional heat.
Again, I appreciate you looking out for us.

Sorry for quoting you but I'd llke to give my 2 cents on this because I think thats a very good thing to ask in this thread.
1. If a miner has a few GPUs as a hobby, I suppose they would be a normal GPU consumer because a gamer could be buying more than a single GPU,but this thread is about miners contacting Nvidia directly and buying mass quantities of GPUs, I wouldn't consider anyone doing that as a consumer because a normal consumer cannot do that.
2. Combination of the 3, IMO.
3. Sure, but most gamers are buying 1 or 2 GPU's and using them for years, miners buy up every GPU they can at every launch, using them and putting it on the used market which can affect the rest of GPU market, thats happened before.
My issue with this are those buying up GPUs to the point it affects supply for everyone else, and the arrogance of miners claiming gamers are entitled idiots for wanting a single GPU they won't use to make money, instead using what the hardware was marketed towards. I agree with you though and I don't care what someone does with their GPU, its just annoying when people put out opinions as fact and claim anyone is entitled for wanting to enjoy their hobby.
I can really understand gamers being frustrated here, being isolated is bad enough, and some waited and saved up to upgrade to play the newest games, now they can't because miners bought up GPUs directly while a normal consumer has to sign up for pre-orders or use a bot to even have a chance at finding a GPU.

Sir, either post or send me your mining address and let me know what you are mining. My wife just set up the Christmas tree, everyone is in a great mood and I like your damn style sir!

Thank you!
It's not just profitable, it pretty dang lucrative. That said, I completely understand your point of view, but I'm going to continue. I think that if I could just show you the positive impact it's had on my household, you'd be less upset about it. That said, I completely understand.

Yes, but if you need continuous power then purely using gas generators isn't possible, and instead you needs banks of lead acid or lithium ion batteries to maintain your load while the generators start up. Most datacenter are setup this way.

agreed, that's why it's out of my room
it would be silly to run your AC and a "heater" at the same time
the plus side is my room is eeriely silent, and i still get uber compute performance
the tools needed for transition (cables and usb hubs) was paid by, you guessed, it, the project itself
not these days, im afraid -sigh-
but as i said, profit drops, it was higher before
but hey, better than nothing amirite?
it has ups and downs really, but as long as it's green, i keep mine on
depends on pricing, disparity between coins and mining difficulty and such
but as done12many2 said, sell when price is right and you'll be very profitable
ie, i mine $2 worth of btc a day when it's $10k, now if i sell it at $20k, i essentially was making $4 a day, for example.
i sold $1k worth yesterday, accumulated for roughly a year and half, eye-ing on more gpus, 2x3060ti perhaps
here, any extra you produced is sent to elsewhere, and is credited, you can use it later in the day and it'll be taken off you bills if you have any left over energy
ie, i produced 550kWh, and my family uses 600kWh, i'll be charged 50kWh by the energy provider
if i use 500kWh, i get 50kWh credit and i can use it next month, say if i use 600kWh and generate 500kWh, i pay $0
so basically, a free battery, which is neat.

Well it depends, I charge my batteries by solar where a generator would have an ongoing operational cost, higher than mine anyway. Plus I got the batteries for two boxes of beer so I'm 100% on the winning side, not that everyone can get free batteries lol.

With regards to the Ethash algo, it's exactly the same and probably the very reason the 3060 Ti is going to be a homerun and favorite for miners.
On core intensive algos, hash will favor the 3070 due to that Cuda power, but truthfully, algos outside of Ethash haven't been that important lately. They seem to pop up every now and then, make us a little money and then fade into the distance.
lol, no doubt man. Would be awesome though!
