arithma wroteHello plebs. My rig (2 lousy machines, 3x 1070 cards each.)
They're not on a UPS (start automatically with electricity for better or worse; mostly worse - I already sent one card back to warranty, hoping I just exposed the defect, not created it.) Learned my lesson, getting a big ass UPS now.
Already made $700 with BTC rising.
I find it more financially secure to invest in real life machines and participate in the network, than to inflate the currency by buying some.
I use Nicehash btw, and mine Ethereum, ZCash and what not.
BUSINESS
Looking to buy a used Motherboard with at least two slots to start mining with 2x 1080Ti (because why not get larger more versatile ones!)
If you're into this to get rich, go away. (Unless you're able to lose $100K without flinching)
If you're into this because you want your hardware to pay for itself, then you might have a place.
There's lots of risk, and I already rode a wave of bitcoin rising (the $700 were supposed to be much less, around $500, but bitcoin has a habit of rising.)
Sending bitcoin around is quite easy, which definitely verifies some of the hype for me. It not being a government controllable is a big FU to governments (I am a cryptopunk that only has gaming hardware afterall.)
Seriously tho, have fun and stop being a fucking whinge.
if you want my advice if you are going to upgrade go with AMD Rx 580 its cheaper with a good result you should watch youtube videos about the hash rater for both of the cards and why to buy more motherboards and more rigs just buy a asrock BTC h110 it support up to 13 GPU on the same rig wish you good luck with your mining plans
