its better to sell your excesive power from solar than mining with old gpus, except you had mobile gpus from aliexpress, which is wasted of money even mineable coin up by 10x still in break even at 0.1 kwh rate, cuz many zombie gpus farm will hit the cave again
try to swap the entire cooler with the good msi armor see if the problem follows the cooler.
Thanks for this!
I know it's an old thread (found searching on google) but I had a couple older cards laying around that for some reason ran extremely hot no matter what I did. I tried the usual things like reapplying thermal compound, cleaning dust out, running super low voltages, etc.
After finding this I swapped the entire heat-sink cooler with another that ran fine and it worked. Until coming across this post I would have never thought the cooler would be the problem, as its mainly a hunk of metal with two fans attached, which in my case the fans were good.
So is it the liquid inside the little tubes that leaks out or what? I might try my luck on eBay and buy some parts-only GPUs for the cooler portion, but how to know if they are good?
yes might be liquid inside copper pipe leaked, but i dont think cause to much for rx 470 card which is low power gpu, might be some bent in mounting and die not connecting evenly in heatsink this happen on many vegas gpu. trying to replace with new heatsink to costly for gpu already fall in price

ps5 gpu quite fast is between 6650 - 6700 xt, while gpu bandwith much higher than 6700 xt. the cpu is around ryzen 2/3600 series. this is costing 13500 eur which absolute joke lol you can get 200$ x 12 = 2400 for 6700 xt 2nd, and 3000$ for full setup . dunno what asrock thinking here lol

todays world xrp and many other old coin isnt good choice, new comers will spur their money to new coin instead. the day for xrp to shine already passed looks many alt already doing 300%+ and xrp only 30% at best

after btc correction when etf launch after several days/weeks its last chance entry point for alt. spread acros 14 coin 500$ each to minimize risk my suggestion convert 50% to btc and 7 alt, wait for alt/btc dumping to bottom, cus alt gonna infinite dumping when btc up in alt/btc pair. in bullrun better trade alt/btc instead fiat

buying asic miner in local store would cost higher than importing but its safer bet and cut times instead waiting you can mine right away, at this point asic better than gpu mining and more stable for long term mining, except it will become brick after couple years instead selling gpu to gamer

i wouldnt expect karl would hold to of gpu miner, its just passing by and gone in couple weeks/months. miners need some real big cap coin to handle million gpus out there which is almost imposible this day only bullrun a real answer for gpu miner.
Some people believe link will pass 100$ mark and become 10 top marketcap, expecting move like ada or etc last cycle, either way buying link under 10$ surely good investment at very moment,

For short term, meme is the best one, move fast, capturing profit and move to other reputable coin, or just go with btc until settle, trade alt with btc pair in bullrun to maximize profit, and trade with stable coin when downturn

long time no see jelurida group is still alive? ardor still alive i think so with nxt the ancestor. many dev from nxt already build their startup and quite sucessfull than nxt itself so many times snapshot and people already forgot from jelurida group. sad but true i miss old coin. maybe this cycle seeing some old coin stealing spotlight, i hope
it has 3 pcie slot. is it possible to put more gpu than 3 by using pcie splitter ? Does anyone try ? Is there anyone who use it for mining mobo?
last time i tried using z87 msi gaming mobo, but isnt worthed for the price pcie splitter + mobo, and quite pain in ass, sometimes crash and annoying to fix it, really annoying i would suggest proper mining mobo and basically cheap + included with cpu.

each cycle you get less confident not just alt but in whole crypto industry, total marketcap already reach 3T in the last cycle. pushing more on that would need other source of meta, which is pretty much limited these day that morethan 30% people already knew crypto.
