We just finished our 7200h/s Zcash mining rig project!
It's been a tough week, but finally we got all 24x GTX 1060s up and running on our Linux set up!
"Our first project under Hash Courier name (our wanna-be-company) that we've build together with my friend and Co-founder of Hash Courier mining services - David."
HARDWARE SPECS:
- Mobo: Asus Prime Z270-A
- Procesor: Intel Pentium G4400 (I know - celeron is cheaper, but hey, I got these with 20% discount...)
- GPUs: 8x EVGA GeForce GTX 1060 FTW GAMING ACX 3.0 (on each miner)
- Memory: Kingston HyperX 4GB DDR4 single
- PSUs: 2x Corsair HX750 (on each miner)
- SSD: Western Digital 120GB green
- Additional fans: 3x-4x Corsair AF140mm (on each miner)
It did not start very well at the beginning....
We still had to wait for our risers and additional Add2PSU + M.2 to PCI-e adapter that were all shipped from USA
We decided to start with our shelf, which probably was the easiest part... :D
Then we moved on to 3x builds...
After connecting more than 3 of the GPUs on each cards we encountered the stability problems which forced us to switch from Windows 10 to Ubuntu 16.04 (my natural habitat, hohoho)...
And after like 5 days of testing benchmarking and patching we finally managed to run all 8 GPUs on each rig!
We decided to go for Zencash mining via zenmine.pro pool - around 7000h/s gives us a solid 30$
We are looking forward to essembling more mining rig in the future (once we get some ROI back :D), stay tuned for more cool mining rig builds!
What were the prices for 1060s? They are really hard to get so im kinda surprised how you got 24x of them.
I got them from wholesales in a specialized shop - I was lucky my friend's father works with computes so I bought them with 15% sale All 3 rigs costed around 3000$ each so that makes 9000$ plus Monitor, keyboard, mouse and some cabels... :)
