Would be cool to have a hobby shop and mess with these things side by side ^o^
I kinda like the idea of running the card until it dies and/or catches fire. -batman voice while holding a graphics card- "First, you must make ROI... Then you have my permission to die" after my GPU repair of changing fans and putting new thermopaste I feel confident of running GPUs long term. As long as the system boots it's hashing.
That's a lot of hash o.o I wonder how much Bitcoin that Monero is worth a day. I was making about 0.4-0.5miliBTC which is like 3.20$ a day on 4 cards? But on average I'm getting like 0.3 which is a little over 2$ bleh. A step closer to ROI of my 1080ti I got a year ago XD
I think it's going to be interesting with the new Vega cards come out. Probably going sip electricity and hash decently. Maybe not as high as a 590 but if the price is right. ^o^
Any ideas how to test the PSU? I dunno if swapping pcie cables is enough and see if the issue follows. I took a multimeter to all the pinouts when my R9 290x blew voltages we're good but dunno about amps and watts @.@ I don't think a lick test is a good idea either lol the only other PSU I have is like a 450 watt. Darn cheapy thing.
Took out all my RX's and changed the timings then flashed the bios on all of them. I gained almost 1000 h/s. Crazy... Now the one machine makes 2800 h/s with
2 570's
1 580
1 470
That's pretty damned good.
.... Had a PSU failure today. Luckily I had a replacement and I added that one I sent the ad to you..the $29 one. It works great. A little noisy and a little hard getting the wires on to the terminals but one of the best buys I've made this year.
Ohmygoodness I'm glad to hear there was no fire and you didn't get hurt tinkering with it while your PSU blew.
An extra 1000 hashes is awesome! Quite the bold upgrade! I'm glad it worked out. I hope I have a moment this weekend to tinker with my setup.
For Thanksgiving I'm expecting family to visit. I wonder what their reaction will be when they see my modest set up on a mining frame and making quite the space heater ^o^
Put the one thats giving you troubles on the 450 by itself. If it a atx psu you'll have to jumper two of the pins so it will run by itself. Worth a try.
