just got the third 1080 water cooled gpu

this board is running

3x 1080 ti's

1x ryzen 1800x

lenden and the 7500t  are two other cpus running xmr

both most of the earnings are from the x370 board.

while I am easy over energy

i.e. 600 watts is 15 kwatts a day or 3 usd a day at my summer rates of 20 cents I earn about 8 so 8-3 = 5 bucks a day so  the time has come to stop buying gear.

in 1 month my power bill will drop in ½  so 8-1.50 = 6.50 a day which means very tight margins for now.

I remember when i started with this mining thing, early this may, i was having those same numbers ($6-7 a day) and it was just with two gtx 1070 only. Sad

by the way, how come does your electric bill get dropped by a half after summer? Here in mexico it works the other way around, summer rates comes with a big discount so you can turn on your ac without hurting your pocket.. i guess you dont have this infernal south baja summer

okay  true rate

 summer = 16.7  I add ac cost bump to            20.0  as my ac runs more due to summer mining.
winter     = 12.7 I subtract heat saved lower to 10.0 as my furnace runs less due to winter mining.


so it is 12.7 to 16.7   but my  adjustments    10 to 20 cents a kwatt are accurate.

USA  tends to bill higher in the summer  lower in the winter  in many places of the country.

This summer was the first summer  I could run cards the whole summer and make money since  2013

I now have   18 1080 ti's  and 1 1070  and I won't be doing much for a while.  cards still turn a profit and are paid off  but buying has to stop.


here in mn its

 summer = 22 or so, true rate with taxes and fees an this is without AC
winter     = 12 -13 on average true rate.

I recently added a 600amp serice to my garage with demand type business service and its much much cheaper even summer rate
came to only .10 true rate after taxes and fees, you alse get discounts for the more power you use.

I imagine in winter ill have a true 5 to 7 cents rate , my only problem being I need to install some sort of exhaust system in the garage so i can move all my rigs from the basement to the garage.

if you can swing it look into a business class demand service , the rates are far far cheaper than resedential
