Ok, I want to pick your brains, everyone says, including the posting rules here, that you cant meaningfully mine bitcoin for profit on a pc, BUt, i can get about $1,20 per gpu 1080ti per day. Now if bitcoin reaches 100,000 in the near future, which is very possible no-one can tell me it is impossible. Then that $1.20 per gpu could be a serious profit just like when it began. When they started mining bitcoin it was worthless and people told them they were wasting their time. A Few years later many of them are holding valuable wallets. Profitability calculators are missing an important category... future value.
I think its a bit harsh for everyone to push the theory that mining is useless. Also, most mining softwares pay you out in bitcoin so even if your mining monero, you are actually mining bitcoin when all is said and done.
Ill appreciate your big brains and input. Just here to learn and you guys are the teachers.
Thank you
You can mine with nicehash with your 1080ti and get paid in bitcoin.
Hi guys, I can't get my e3 to hash, it keeps bootlooping afte 5 - 6 min
tried antpool, nano, spark and 2miners, with or without password and it keeps resetting after 5 min
stratum+tcp://stratum-eth.antpool.com:8008 Quentin#0x020f968ETHADDRESS.12CBC06FBEC4 FIXED it turns out it's either your eth address or your sub account, not both
Sorry to burst your bubble, but you are creating false readings and you are putting stress on the unit.
There are 4 chips on each board and 3 x boards, total of 12 chips, the sensor is on the last chip to the rear bottom of each board, the other 3 chips on the board are at the front near the fan, if you reverse the fan the sensored chip is getting cold air first and the other 3 chips on the board are getting hotter air, also the senor pcb is getting fresh air first, not good scenario for the 3 unsensord chips which is now hotter than the sensored chip and the fan is not activating to their real temps.
Normally they are always cooler than the sensored chip and have no need to be monitored.
Guys it's pretty fast to just test it. If you won't, I will when I get home. Some fan designs work better this way.
It works, i am seeing about 5 degree drop in temperature.
Those readings are working against physics and definitely not accurate.
Not necessarily. The difference between the efficacy of push or pull would be determined by the design and layout of chips/hot spots as well, not simply direction.
I have a Z9 mini myself and seen the inside, there is no way for an exhaust fan to be more efficient than an intake fan, placed either side of the Z9 mini. Pulling air out of Z9 mini is like placing a dense fabric air filter in front of the intake, restricting the airflow and reducing the efficiency.
Whats the difference between pushing and pulling air through the same space?
The fan on Z9 mini is both High static pressure and High CFM.
In push configuration the fan pulls in air from the open with nothing resisting and allows more air to push the heat away from the heatsinks. When you set the fan to pull air out of the Z9 mini, the components inside cause blockage which slows the fan down.
Pull or Push configuration on High static pressure and high CFM fans should produce similar results.
thank you for your reply. Like i said, i'm no expert but i am seeing lower temps and slower fan speed so its quieter and cooler now.

I'm not an expert. Before this, my chip temps were 72, 69, 72. Fan rpm was 4.2k to 4.3k
Is it possible that your fan had been set the wrong way from the factory? Can you confirm which direction the air flows now after you switched? And how about sound, did it change in any way (especially the pitch)?
The fan used to suck air in, now its blowing out. Speed is about 1k rpm less.
To avoid confusion, it pushed air in, now it is pulling air out, correct?
