@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.

Do you have some screen shot from the power consuming or could you make some? I guess you have 6 cards on your rig? With the panda miner (8 cards) I get 6500h/s~ and power consuming is around 930w. I don't think that you will get much better values here but if you can proof that I'm intrestest to know how you could do that exactly.

best regards

PS: Somebody are willing to share his claymore settings for ETH? Because I'm not mining this Wink THanks
