@philipma1957  the "idle" is that high because I use the two cpu's for mining as well Wink Those are quite heavy cpu's and they consume a lot but I'm not talking here about the CPU. Its all about the GPU's  Cheesy Idle time is just to show how much power two 480's are using.


So basicly you can say a RX480 Nitro+ 8GB consumes around 156,5w and generates a hashrate of 845-850 h/s for monero. (603w - 290 / 2). This is not bad but you cannot compare this to your panda miner! Total other GPU cards (MXM!). Ah and by the way, a panda miner is using around 390-400w in idle modues  Tongue

There's just no way a RX would be taking 300w here.

I get about 100w per RX for 740h/s with common bios mod + undervolt, 40w for intel skeleton. 640w~ for 4450h/s~ with basic mod, 5100h/s~ with more advanced for very small draw raise.
I do *way* better than pandaminer. The interest in pandaminer lies elsewhere.

If you're not going for easy deploy/stack. Custom rigs are much cheaper, more hash. I don't know how the MXM fare if/can once undervolted to save power. At stock the draw is pretty damn high.

Haha, yes Virosa, you can advertise as well Cheesy

Anyhow,

The rom i gave him has no undervolt whatsoever. I didn't even touch that :p
So i'm not 100 but 200% sure that i can lower that powerdraw significantly Smiley

Still.. 850h stable as a rock   Wink

Know we have talked about it Eliovp...

just to clear up, what kind of watts/powerdraw could you lower it to? roughly?
