No tricks. 500 8-core opteron servers running mikhaels hp8.
I simply took the best scripts from this thread and used some recommendations from members.

500!

Self funded? Or do you work in a data centre Roll Eyes

?

Self funded.

How does one even set up 500 servers? Just that task alone to order that many sounds massive. And at $70/month for the cheapest dedicated 8core opteron...$35,000?I must be missing something somewhere. Can you elaborate?

You build once and clone 499 times. Pretty simple actually.

Then you put a script on each server that makes it mine automatically.

I didn't get the 35K right away, I just took some of the money I was making while mining. I starting mining with 500 Amazon EC2 instances when diff was about 8, and then took the winnings to double down on dedicated servers with opteron processors (that perform about 20x better).

So Amazon practically financed my server farm.

I see..thanks! So you're the reason XPM fell to .60 from 1.50 Wink
