My cards run like this:

GPU 1 - 39 degrees
GPU 2 - 45 degrees
GPU 3 - 55 degrees
GPU 4 - 62 degrees
GPU 5 - 71 degrees
GPU 6 - 79 degrees

Then I added a small fan between the last 3.

I am now working on something like so:

Amazing how that heat gets passed on the each card.....

Just smaller and more compact, but it must fit over 5 rigs since we have 5 per row in the rack

Amazing to see how the heat gets passed on to the next one...

Is Genesis mining actually real or a scam ?

Done some checking on their operation and clients and almost everything negatively rates them.

$4900 for 175MH/s mining Ethereum for 2 years, or roughly R63k...

Or you get your own hardware for R35-45k upfront, pay 24k for electricity over 2 years and still own the hardware at the end of the day. And you can mine whatever you feel like at any given time

:D

I have a very small dash contract.

Ok, still just BTC, Eth and XMR. I'll wait for them to get more Dash or X11 online.

EDIT: My 1060 is doing almost the equivalent of a $600 contract atm.

They one of the few real company's.

It is not a scam, but like Hash Flare the ROI is volatile and Genesis Mining themselves in accordance with their terms had to cancel many contracts due to unsustainability and this is why people marked them as a scam. These contracts usually show returns on month 16 and a lot can happen in 16 months. Currencies which has doubled in value like ZEC and ETH, well, that is now viable again to cloud mine.

Hash Nest is legit. The PACMiC mining contracts has consistently returned 10-15% p/a. Plus, they pay out bonusses. Like the abovementioned cloud mining entities, these contracts are cancelled once they are unsustainable. Then you can also buy and host Antminers through them, that is whether they have stock and we are already closing in on GHS 5.0, and the reason why I’m stalling on going ASIC now. You can withdraw you Antminer anytime, and when the Antminer is unsustainable you will need to promptly withdraw.

The other day I rediscovered my Eobot account that I have created in 2013/14, many regard this as an outright scam, but I managed to withdraw everything that I had mined with them. Are they a scam? I don’t know. It is all about sustainability.

All-in-all, I have mined with all entities named above.

Anyone know any sites that give reasonable results for estimated current earnings per pool / coin (specifically scrypt asics)?

Plugged in the watt meter. 6 gpu amd rig pulls around 1070 watts from the wall. Gpuz reports each gpu using a 100watt.

So my 80 units per day for 3 rigs is normal.
