I ran each miner to a separate outlet and breaker to split the load - my apt is rated for about 80amps total and they are not individually monitored. Plenty of power for what I'm doing. The tricky part was finding an outlet/circuit rated for at least 20amps or higher - most are 15. Two of my three runs are from the kitchen - there are 2 high amp outlets for appliances in there (much safer). I also don't pay for electricity here.
Really nice rig. Any updates since last year? You should be at a profit now right, especially after the last few months. The cards should've paid for themselves, but how much did all of your other equipment cost? Hope you're in the positives. Best wishes.
Thanks! Honestly, it pains me to say that i recently sold everything. Running them in an apartment is a bit risky due to power concerns. I sold 3 of the 4 VII's for nearly $200 more than i paid for them new and kept 1 for personal (free VII out of the deal = not bad). I used what i earned mining to start trading / investing. Overall, everything has paid for itself many times over. Most of my other equipment was already there, i work in IT and have always had a crazy setup going.
Trust me, I tried to think of a way to utilize the slots - nothing was feasible. But you also have to realize, I paid about $50 for those motherboards brand new. Also, I do not pay for electricity in my apartment (as stated in the video).
I mainly used a server rack setup due to space constraints in my apartment (plus i like the way racks look). The con, is cooling and airflow (even with industrial fans). I live in the northern us close to canada, so it's easy for me to just crack a window during the winter. Summer however, is a different story - even up here. If you have the room, I think open air setups would give you better cooling and access to the gpus - plus they are way cheaper (at least back when i started). I don't mine eth anymore. GPUs wont be as profitable anymore once 2.0 drops anyway. I sold most of my gear and built servers for running nodes instead - same rack, different cases.
@@alexzan1858 No prob. I think they can be efficient, but extra intake cooling is key (like AC fans or an extra box fan). Air conditioning if possible.
I just got recommended this video on TH-cam! VERY NICE SETUP MAN DAMN. Subbed.
Thank you! I've definitely checked out some of your videos in the past on another account. I'll sub you as well.
At least you have Free heat in the Winter.
Thnx for sharing the links
You're welcome. Sucks that a lot of things are still sold out though.
This is sick dude
You have a hallway?
Dude, you are soooooo lucky!!!
Hoping to pick up a few more vii's this xmas season...running 1 rn on H2O..
LOVE IT
Definitely getting harder to come by! U probably took like 2lbs off that thing using water 😂
Someone just started selling it on Amazon for $569... a collector item for sure.. xfx model but I’ll take it for that price
Maybe try to condense your next video next time, but thank you very much for your presentation! :)
Nice Rigs btw ;)
Thanks! And thanks for the input. I'm pretty new on videos still. Streamlining is still a work in progress lol.
Nice setup
Thanks! 👍
I really appreciate the cleanliness of your setup, good job :)
How much power does each Radeon VII pull? Sorry if I missed it.
Since i have them running more efficiently, they draw between 240 - 280W.
3:00 by the noice coming from the rigs there are a couple fans you need to replace with noctua fans to shut them up ^^
Those sevens though...
Did u have to up your power? Sadly I cannot at my apartment, it is not permitted and I’m limited to less than 10 3080s, then circuit breaker trips

It's included with my rent.
wow, what fan did you use? the sound not like jet engine..

What Is wattage usage of those 3 mining rig ......
Hmm setup looks cool, but you whaisting energy and money on motherboards which support more gpus in on motherboard your using only third of that

you mining ? would you use server cases still?

@@ReverendMantis ok cool thanks for telling, I would have thought server cases run cooler than open air tbh

What r your mv on those blue rx580
Between 950mV and 975mV seems to keep them happy.
breathe
I think Vega 56 x2 = 1 Radeon 7
More like x3. I've pushed them to 98Mh/s each - i think more is possible. They just run too hot and draw lots more power.
