I like your ideas and agree that there is problems with gpu cases. Would be great if you can make something compact and quiet, and secure.
I think for this vertical design to work well specific gpu brand cooling would be needed. MSI has horizontal fins that mimicks active cooling heat sinks. Evga heatsinks are vertical fins so air does not flow as well.
A question about the rounded top of your case? Is this so you can stack multiple cases on top of each other? If so sounds like a good idea so heat isn't transfered to the stacked case
Seems like a simple box top chassis shape would be cheaper and good for airflow however cases can't be stacked.
Awesome keep up the good work and can't wait to see this get tested.
Where will the power supply be located? What type of power supply can it support? I'm assuming something like an evga 1600 watt would be supported?

I think I will get an rtx 3090 to game, have as a work workstation, and mine at nights to keep the house warm in winter time.
Those that bought 2080 ti to mine with is just plain dumb due to only 11 mb vram and huge price tag.
However the 3090 probably wont' be as bad b/c it has 24mb vram is HUGE! compared to the 11 VRAM on 2080 ti. You can potentially mine complex algos like Grin that gives some advantage to those with Big Vram. However Grin hype had faded and profits not all that great with Grin. But i think it's a good long term hold. 3090 is a good card to make you feel like you got a ferrari and geek out on.
i'll probably get a 3080 as well. These seems to be a good balance for those looking to build dense rigs, less cards to maintain. This has a tad better memory over the 3070. Just one on launch till we see more mining performance.
3070 rtx sounds pretty awesome also if you plan to go all in on mining and buy tons of video cards.
Nowadays I just mine for hobby and try to find good colo's that can try to work with gpu miners. Most colo's hate gpus and only want to work with asics.
Overall you can't go too wrong with Nvidia. All the nvidia cards 10 series 20 series are still mining today whereas those with rx570/rx580 dropped tons of value and big farms had to shut down rigs and sell off their cards.
It's safe to say if you get an nvidia 3000 series you will be mining them for at least 3 years minimum. 10 series been mining for 4 years+ still. Asics sort of depressing to see it only mine for 1 year and than you gota figure out how to recycle them.

Re: Last year I started a 200+ GPUs farm for ETH mining. What happened?
To say gpu mining was not profitable is really not accurate. Your poor decision making was unprofitable. Any business that had the returns you did would be a good investment. To stop mining so soon after investing so much is just foolish.
Well I think the overall story is that one can't just rely on whattomine and focus on just mining profitability. There are soo many traps in crypto and decision making is the biggest factor weather you make money or not.
In this case it was crypto lending that got him but their are other things like exchange hacks or you getting phished and hacked. You can really lose years worth of mining revenue.
I still would not try to compare other businesses to crypto mining as they are really different. To say mining is easy and your lucky to have a good return is quite untrue, Equipment cost in crypto needs to be replaced far more frequently compared to other businesses. Running ongoing electric cost eats into majority of the revenue. At the end of the day crypto mining your making very small profits if any. I see a lot of miners here have a very hard time expanding or wanting to expand. In the normal world businesses have more opportunity to expand and grow their business. It's a tough game to play.
I hear entrepreneur running gold mines investing millions mentioned it was more profitable to actually buy the gold than to run a gold mine operation. Same is true with crypto for most people.
Re: [ANN][DASH] Dash (dash.org) | First Self-Funding Self-Governing Crypto Currency
I don't think the miners are dumping nearly as much as the masternode owners. Masterenode owners essentially get free money every month and have a huge incentive to dump as the value keeps droppping. A miner has to cover their electric and get scraps after all said and done. But ya lets blame the miners are usual. And so it goes.
Keep dumping masternode owners. I hope you get a higher reward so you can surpress down the price more and I can buy more cheaper

Re: Last year I started a 200+ GPUs farm for ETH mining. What happened?
In any other business a 2 years to break even would be considered great.
Not considered great if you got to liquidate and sell your equipment in two years to stay up to date.
That's called breaking even and never getting ahead.
. Rental properties is much more lucrative than mining. Good properties appreciate in value with time.
Hi,I want to rent 40 or may start with 30 to 150 nvidia videocards daily or hourly to mining my altcoin.Cards must be nvidia and starts from 1080 to 2080ti or teslaV100,may 1080 ti as most almost used videocard.
I will do mining tkeycoin.
Will pay you hourly or daily as you want.
PM me.

Are you planning to 51 percent attack a shitcoin network? Lol
It's a much better time to put your money into crypto when btc is at around 5k vs being around 8k like it was last couple of weeks.
However things can get much worst before it gets better. So I would average in if your time frame is short. It is a golden opportunity but may take a couple of years before we break out above 20k again. This dump confirms that a major support on the log chart was lost and may take longer to recover back to all time high.
If your getting a house this year forget about crypto and stock market.
If your getting a house in 2-5 years sure then put money into crypto it's the corona virus sale price on everything including stocks.

You can be a fomo crypto noob and buy mining gear and get rekt years down the line and realize after your electric cost you never roi.
Us miners are very tribal and will mine at a loss to mess with other miners and keep playing chicken with one another to drive each other out of the mining game.
Or you can be a crypto pro and learn from our mistakes and just buy quality coins and potentially make real money in the future
Choice is yours.

Get xrp with $1500. Its way underforming and it's #3
You won't be throwing money away like other alts when they eventually dump. Xrp is too big to fail.
$1500 in btc will get you a nice down payment car in next bull run.
However $1500 in xrp will get you a nice down payment on a house next bull run

There is no doubt that $200 is a big achievement for Ethereum. But we need to remember that the ATH was somewhere around $1,500 per coin and the current rates are just a fraction of what we had back in 2018. Ethereum had its bubble and it burst during the Dec 2018-Jan 2019 period. Now I don't think that we'll ever witness those levels again.
why not? btc hit 20k with way crappier tech in comparison to etherium.
Don't underestimate the altcoin markets. You'll end up selling way too early like most crypto newbs of 2017.
You are still not getting it. What is the point in having a much better technology, if it is not being used? Bitcoin was the first cryptocurrency and the technology is quite robust. The advantage with Ethereum is that it can be used for purposes such as the creation of smart contracts. But for making payments, Bitcoin and Ethereum are at the same level and ETH doesn't have any advantages over Bitcoin.
Your obviously a btc maxamalist and that's a dangerous game to play for 2020 as btc dominance is dropping off a cliff soon. You had two years of btc dominance protection but you should not get greedy expecting 3 years of high btc dominance.
Look at how people are getting excited with eth again.
Eth has defi, faster transaction, blah blah blah list goes on.
I do get what your saying. But I don't care about using cypto as a currency if I'm going to get taxed on every transaction. So get real with yourself we will not have a world where btc is the new world currency. The tax man will never let that happen.
I treat crypto like stock investments instead to make money. That's what we are all honesty here for.

Lol. Thats the spirit I had in 2017. Good luck to your new coin purchase. But slow down a bit on that moon juice and just play the long game and risk what you can afford to lose.
Even if all goes well and price rise will it rise enough to outpace payPal credit card fees of 20 percent apr?
Also any profit you make the tax man will collect on his share. So the short term gains if any may not be a big enough payday for the work, risk, and stress involved with tax reporting and record tracking short term income gains. I would rather go for the 10-100x gains but that takes years and luck.
Bc you bought on credit your under additional time constraints and may not be able to hold out long enough to enjoy future gains.
Best to average cost buy in couple hundred every month.
Unless you feel like this is going to be just like 2017 than ya max the credit cards and sell the house j/k don't do that bc that makes you a gambler and your wife will divorced you

btg is pumping in price. Hack was small.
Ya in crypto bad news pumps the price and good news sells the price.
Ya i wouldn't want to hold btg long term till they fix their issues. But still a nice short term pump trade to be made

When mining zcoin with this miner it tends to mine zero hashes after a week of running. I always have to keep an eye on this. Is my overclocks to high. I set them around the same as the new equihash algo settings? Or is this miner generally not as stable as gminer when mining btg? Gminer I can run for a few weeks to months without issues

ya this is quite bullish news actually.
I remember when bitmain would not sell there s9 to customers for over a year so they can mine it all to themselves and get huge gains. This generally forces those miners to grow some balls and buy some coins instead. Bitmain and Inno actually doing you guys a favor by forcing you to buy in on the coins to pump the price instead of trying to mine it like a nerd and always finishing last place.
Thank you inno and bitmain. Please keep mining for yourself. These dumb miners don't know any better.

Yes mining will never be more profitable than buying top quality coins. Even if you do buy at all time High on a top quality coin you will still come out ahead buying coins compared to mining.
Only reason you should get into mining is, if you want to get a lot of speculative shitcoins but can't risk losing it all.
Another good reason is that you prefer to average your cost in by mining and you are horrible at avg cost buying b/c you get too excited buy everything at once and get rekt.
When you mine you also have to be comfortable mining at a loss a lot of the times. Hardware gets outdated fast especially with asics.
I do both. But i prefer to do 80-90 percent buying coins and 10-20 percent mining for fun and not caring what it does. Overall buying top 10 coins has been much more profitable than mining in my experience since early 2017.
Mining tends to be something to suck newbs into crypto that don't know any better and too scared to buy coins and want a hedge.
Some miners you will never get your money back compared to what you spent on them. Let alone the taxes you have to pay for them for earned income etc. The electric cost exceeding income revenue. The facility structure cost to cool things down and keep dust out etc.. Whats not to love, ant miner x3, Batch 5 obelisk sc , obelisk dcr, late batch L3+ , , etc. The list goes on. I recommend just sticking with the latest bitcoin miner s17
If your not getting 8 cents electric rate or better then don't bother.

Re: Bitcoin Satoshi Vision - BSV... Recent push .. CAN IT SURPASS BITCOIN BTC?
If Bitcoin gets 51 percent attacked, or has a fundemental code flaw, etc . Than ya bsv and bch will take btc place. Remember that btc is anti big blocks so if that fundemental reason fails btc will need to scale.
Bch almost flipped btc in full blown alt season of 2017. So I can see bsv almost flip btc. Craig just needs to dump all his btc for bsv and we have the flippening. One rich guy can do it.
People tend to really underestimate bsv and when it pumps everyone crys scam scam pump and dump, blah blah blah. Ya that gets old and newbs like that will always get rekt when they don't do their research or just blindly follow other sheeps.
