Pretty much exactly to my point earlier. A P102-100 is just a modifed 1080ti. its only effective of course if the price is significantly lower than current 1080tis (so well under $850/card). Your EThash numbers look excellent, but everything else...meh. EQHash numbers seem really low. I expect a 1080ti to get well over 750sols/card and with the right tweaking 780+. That rig should be doing 12 ksol+
And why pay for 2x10gbe ports? total overkill.
We are currently in the process of designing our sheet metal chassis and then integrating our multiple power supply solution into it.
Our GPU supplier has recently made the P102-100 GPU available to us so this is what we will be offering going forwards as the cost benefit of P102 vs P104 is favourable.
So in approximately 4 weeks we'll be running a batch sale for an initial batch of 120 x 16-GPU mining systems with these specs:
SKU: Ethereal Capital P102-100-X16
GPU: 16x NVIDIA P102-100 5GB GDDR5X RAM
Ethereum / Ethash Hash Rate: 800 MH/s @ 4100W (+/- 2.5%) (note estimate from manufacturer specs, TBC by actual benchmarking)
Zcash / Equihash Hash Rate: 11,000 Solutions/s @ 4500W (+/- 2.5%) (note estimate from manufacturer specs, TBC by actual benchmarking)
Monero / Cryptonote Hash Rate: 12,800 H/s @ 2400W (+/- 2.5%) (note estimate from manufacturer specs, TBC by actual benchmarking)
CPU: Intel Pentium Processor D1508, Single socket FCBGA 1667, 2 Core, 4 Threads, 25W
RAM: 4GB DDR4 UDIMM (expandable to 128 GB DDR4 ECC RDIMM)
Storage: 16GB flash storage (expandable via 6 x SATA3 ports and 1 x M.2 PCI-E 3.0 x4)
Backplane: Supports up to 16x PCI-E GPU's at up to 300W TDP each
Network: 2x 10G Ethernet Ports
Remote Management: 1x Dedicated 1G Ethernet Port, IPMI 2.0 with virtual media over LAN and KVM-over-LAN support
Power Supply: Either 4 x 1400W or 5 x 1200W Delta Power Supplies in N+1 redundant configuration (TBC)
Cooling: 6x 4500 RPM 120x120x38mm Delta fans with PWM speed control
OS: EthOS
Display Output: VGA
Dimensions (L x W x H): 750mm x 550mm x 200mm x 20kg (approximately)
Running cards at 110% is a method I don't do.
But if you build a 7 card rig and run at 110% you will get your higher numbers.
Your first criticism was based on the cards being only 1060 equals.
your next criticism is based on the newer bigger cards not hashing high enough as compared to your hybrid cards which are now over 900 usd not 850
https://www.evga.com/products/product.aspx?pn=11G-P4-6598-KR they are now 909 plus shipping
I would rather have a pair of six card evga hybrids rigs set to 200 watts each rig would be about 6 x 750 = 4500 sols 2 rigs would be 9000 sols
they would pull around 1300 watts each. Or 2600 watts total.
The problem is I can not get those cards. and even if I do get them 12 cards are 10908 usd plus shipping
I am also a mid sized miner. Not a large scale guy. The rigs in this are more for a big scale op. easy to deploy and not a lot of tweaking.
Are you better off with your setup then buying this it sounds like you are.
Is a guy looking to buy 50 of these and dropping them into a warehouse better off with this setup then your setup I think so.
For me I may get a few of the larger rigs for the solar array. I won't be running it in my garage as it will be too hot and loud compared to this model I am testing for them.
The p106-100 can run in your garage and you can have them set to do 80 watts a card.
In a properly setup warehouse/data center you can set them to do 100-110 watts a card.
I really like the form factor for these cards spotswood's frames are nice. I would love to see the final design of the p102-100 models. wrapped in sheet metal around the aluminum.
30-31 inches wide 16 inches deep 11 inches high. using the rack below will do 5 rigs or 80 cards at 200 watts each and 700 sols each is 56000 sols and maybe 19000 watts
