Do you have them in open frames or cases? Not having a CPU mining rig in a case makes me nervous: fire hazards, pets, and health risk according to the motherboard warning labels. 🤷♂️ But, it looks like almost everyone uses an open frame or on top of the motherboard box.
@coreanstacker5427 just sitting flat on a metal rack, with a sheet of mylar underneath to protect the solder joints. Never had an issue. If it is worrisome for you then I don't recommend.
@@andrewjones198 yeah, I just built my first CPU rig and am going to build another one in a week or so. What about sharing a power supply unit via a splitter cable? Do you recommend it?
@coreanstacker5427 I use splitters yes, just be cautious. It seems to be no issue to have 4x 24 pin atx splitters on a single psu, but as for the 8 pin cpu don't use more than 1 splitter cable per EPS CPU cable. Make sure so run at base clock speed at lowest core voltage that is stable. Measure your power. Feel the cables periodically to make sure they are not hot. Be safe man. Do this at your own risk.
Glad you did a CPU build I have 3 of my own dual mining KCN/LCN but if you think about it in a couple of months do a good video on maintenance for the rig please. I noticed mine has really built up dust in the garage on the cooler and fans. Thanks as always! Great content. You should be able to get about .24 cents a day with this merge mine vise .14 cents with about 65 watts
Set the AC Power ON in bios and you no longer need a power switch. Good stuff as always. Those motherboards just don't have all the bells and whistles but I think you got about as much out of it as possible.
I was replacing the cooler on a co-workers computer and that exact same thing happened to me. I use intel cpu's for my computers so I was not aware that this could happen with an AMD socket. I too got lucky with the pins but it freaked me out for a sec.
Dual ram always better for randomx. Size not important, 2x8GB sticks is fine. Make sure to enable xmp profile. For tuning just use base clock and keep lowering voltage on the core until it crashes then bump it up a notch. On 5900X I manage 13KH@125w 7900x3d does around 16.5kh@130w
Everything you said and also don't forget to find your minimum RAM voltage too, it's usually way lower than the default 1.35V, it will save you a couple of watts. BTW, for comparison, I've got a dozen of 3900's (non-X), I run them at 3.4 GHz and on randomx (with RAM 3200 CL16) they do 12.1 kH@118W. Interestingly even though the 3900 has base clock of 3.1, when I tested clock speeds between 3.1 and 3.7 GHz, 3.4 turned out to be the most efficient (by a few %), for some strange reason.

as a experinced tech if you twist you're ryzen cpu. it wont come up when you remove the cooler, you have to break the bond never had a issue since I learned that.
The real trick would be to use this cpu miner to run a gpu rig. You'd essentially save the system power because of the little tiny income. The cpu draws power in a gpu rig anyways, so may as well mine on it! I recently amalgamated my gpu rigs in groups of 12 cards per rig to help save on hiveos fees. Adding in the 5900x cpu on verus coin seems good so far on each rig and no issues except load average is higher and I had to set up the hashrate watchdog to keep it from rebooting due to that.
What power rating is your pico VS power needed to run that setup? Also, out of 20 picos I’ve used, I’ve had 5 dead right out of the box. Most of the brands have horrible and sketchy soldering jobs on them. Always good to buy plenty of extras if you really want to use them. If you plan to run 1 cpu, it’s kind of not needed.
Wait u can change the voltage and power draw from the BIOS 😳. If your CPU mining I’m guessing your trying to under clock as much as possible to save every but have the same hash rate. Ima try installing HIVEOS on my little Micro 7070 HP and mess with the settings ! And damm rip that motherboard might of gotten some thermal paste in the connectors after it heated up. Good video tho!
I can't flash HiveOS onto my USB stick or SSD drive using balenaEtcher. I get the following error message when trying to flash and validate: "Something went wrong. If it is a compressed image, please check that the archive is not corrupted. The writer process ended unexpectedly." Any idea how I can move to the next step?
@ModernMiningHub tried re-downloading a few times. Didn't work. Didn't work on my M.2 drive either (using the eternal adapter). I guess I should try Rufus and see if that works, but I don't know what's causing the error.
I did what you did when I went to replace a dead AIO on my first gaming pc. Except it ripped the socket from the board and bent pins on the cpu. So i feel that pain lmaoooo. $80 is better than $500+ for a CPU and MB lmao. Trial and error.
you dont need to bridge every time you need to turn it on look for AC power on something in your MB bios , this will turn on with the psu without bridge
@ModernMiningHub in your miner config at the bottom there is an option to choose the miner fork. It seemed to work regardless, but I always select the zephyr fork.
The Pico PSU is most likely the culprit, taking your motherboard along with it... I'm fairly certain; I must have pulled my cpu off the socket like that 20x and even put my motherboard in a dishwasher using Dawn soap, but the only thing that killed it was the unregulated voltage and/or voltage spike; it was for content back during the ethereum mining craze; those were the days.
Bro u gotta be careful with sharp and pointy things u seem to be always taking the most risky approach to doing things be careful I've been hurt with them more then once.
@ModernMiningHub the pico psu obviously would not be able to power it all by itself - just its input cable thickness makes it impossible at 12V - try to get a pcie to cpu power adaptor and power the cpu 8 pin from a pcie 6 or 8 pin from your server/atx psu Number of ram sticks only matter with random x algos (worth to mention imo) I'd try to reflash the bios with the on board button (I think there should be I got a similar board just might be the v2 version) it can sometimes save the board if there's no physical damage - I just got back an msi b550 which just stopped working after a couple weeks mining very very undervolted (3900x 90w from wall 11.5kh) if you have not tried it on your board I would definitely give that a shot Reverse the board on the stand so it has it's center of gravity at the bottom (safe imo, also the rgb will be more visible and looking better imo) also the fan so it (at least a little bit) pulls some air from the vrm cooler After testing with hiveos I had a lot better results just using Ubuntu server and complied my own miner - few percent better hashrates, few percent lower wattage, no fee P.s. I'm relatively new to cpu mining too, I can be wrong too ofc but I'd look into these if you'd like to get the most out of it
@@ModernMiningHub 1st pico psu: don't expect that to be able to handle a ryzen cpu if your think about it the pico's input cable's awg is not enough to handle 130W at 12V, get a pcie to cpu power adapter and use a separate pcie output on your server/atx psu to power the cpu's 8pin
@@ModernMiningHub 2nd b450, hey I think ripping off and AM4 cpu from the socket is pretty much a standard thing if you happen to work with AM4 cpus, it happened to me many times, once even when I tried twisting it out - ever since then I'm trying to preheat with stress test if possible, anyways try to inspect the cpu socket on your b450 if it seems to be okay try to flash a new bios to it with the bios flashback button - I just managed to get back a similar b550 board back to life, hopefully it will help you too

I love cpu mining. I have 22 ryzen 9 rigs going. It's a process to set up and get tuned in right, but we'll worth it.

Pico psu need to he pretty powerful to power that rig whsts the wattage of the Pico? For your setup I'd get at least a 300 watt Pico
I always just set the MB bios to always on after ac power loss. Then you can simply cycle the PSU
I think your old MB is probably OK. Just clear cmos and try again. I find the csm compatibility option can mess it up
With 1GB Huge Pages could gain 3% more hash rate for RandomX. (Linux only)
Wait u can change the voltage and power draw from the BIOS 😳. If your CPU mining I’m guessing your trying to under clock as much as possible to save every but have the same hash rate.

i think you should invest in solar power even if its like 100w its free power. And your 11cents are pretty high for mining. PS: love your videos

Maybe try to redownload the image. It’s weird it’s not working on either ssd or usb

very nice!
Just the sight of the pico psu made me cringe, I'd love to get my paws on it to test it on my multi-meter, I'd bet it's fried, or just plain junk.
You missed miner fork switch to zephyr not xmrig
What do you mean?

Verus is the way!
