I did a long hard look at this and the minimum 90 days from payment to shipping seems to make it a deal breaker.

I went in the direction of some more nvidia gpus. I am close to 8000 h and will soon be at 8700 then 9100h.

dear phil,

sorry to ask this OOT question.
but why choose nvidia gpus over the amd like rx470s?
afaik rx series has better speed and thus better ROI.

regards,

If you check out some of Phil's threads you will see he has quite a farm going. He has AMD rigs, ASIC miners, but recently started jumping into the Nvidia mining. So he has all of the bases covered! Grin

Great reading and a good education for anyone just getting into mining. Phil's got a solar farm thing going on as well. Just amazing fun stuff.

basically I am diverse.

I have stable power in the solar farm

my limits are not as much power as I want. heat control and

asic gear sucks

s-9's break - can not down clock any more. need to for heat issues .
r-4's break---- I don't need to down clock but both that I have have issues running in proper temps with proper power.
avalon's are great they just run but they burn power.
I could not get new x11 gear,
l3 was held up by bitmain

this leaves nvidia and or amd.gpus
I can down clock and I have the ability to sell gear to gamers - the nvidia or miners the amd.
once you have 11 mobos paid off you can pick and choose the gpu's to use.

Phil is holding out on you... He forgot to mention the Panda! LOL Cool stuff!
