Sounds good, happy mining.

Remember to install windows with just 1 gpu installed!

Bios settings has be changed for mining:
Mining mode to enabled
Pcie lanes set to gen1.

Will come back to this post when I have everything and begin the install as I know I will forget and try install windows once EVERYTHING is connected and battle!

Haha no worries. Just note I changed GPU’s (those on the link are currently sold out. Got the same GPU’s just the OC version and an extra R300 per card) and also went for AMD instead of Intel as Intel boards are as hard to come by as 580’s. Also changed the PSU.

Honestly not too sure but will be ether and whatever else there is to mine at the time. Will see what is most profitable I suppose and take it from there.

Care to elaborate a bit?
With Algo switching or just direct mining?

You can already direct mine. I would assume with algo switching.

I queried some of their algo switching logic and as reply I received this:

Hello!

Please note that we are already testing a Linux version which will be released in the next few weeks.

Thank you for understanding and using our services!

Kind regards,

Odd considering that most alts are dropping. Must be the ETH spike making everyone dust off the old mining hats
 
Hi guys do you need to change any settings (clock) on a 1070 when mining ? or can you just mine ?

They had vega 64 stock 2 days ago, grabbed another 3. Hopefully comes this week as my DB board upgrade is being done on Saturday.

Not to much.

Adding a separate DB that will run only the rigs, the garage DB currently runs other plugs and lights on property also with dodgy wiring.

Also adding another set of plugs.

Just installing a 60a earth breaker and 2x20a plug breakers atm, will add more later.

Will run 4 plugs on each 20a breaker.
 
also what wallet do you guys use for ethereum mining ? can you mine directly to your luno wallet ? or do you use a desktop based wallet like exodus ?

what program do you use for that ? and can you mine with standard settings ? can anything bad happen to the card ?

You can use msi afterburner, yes you mine with standard settings but you will use more power and mine less.

Worse that can happen is that the pc will restart because of bad OC, then you will need adjust the settings to get it stable.

Thanks you so much Gtx gaming , appreciated ! can you guys recommend any apps for monitoring mining activity on mobile phone ?
 
Do you guys set the fan speed manually higher when mining ? i see the temp drops quite considerable than with the "auto fan setting" ?
