Thank you so much for the shoutout, I honestly have NO IDEA why you were having these issues, and if we were being honest I was stumped myself. Mining is a process thats for sure, but there has never been an easier, or cheaper time to get into it...one gpu on your pc mining at night when you are not using it to say nicehash is a way to make small amounts of passive income! As far as making those rx 470s game, I did a video on it, and it took me WAYYYYYYY to much time to get them gaming. I think I spent 6-7ish hours getting one to work on windows lol!
Picked up a mining RX470 8gb card a few years back for dirt cheap, comparatively to full fat 570s/470s at the time. It only had one display output but worked just fine for gaming. It's in my daughters PC right now in fact, still more than good enough for the games she likes to play.
you should reflash the bios on it, usually mining bios is slightly down clocked vs a normal 470, i actually had a couple that only had a dvi output and i reflashed them and they worked great
As someone who's been mining crypto for almost 4 years. I had a good laugh at this. The struggle to get HiveOS to work for the very first time was real. 😂
Miners love computer equipment. They baby the cards and treat them well, maybe better than many gamers do. It eats into profits when needing to buy more gpus.
Yep, usually they do undervolting and run the cards very cool, something most gamers dont if anything they overclock them and run hotter. Sometimes though I have seen mining cards with rust and those you should stay away from as that means they probably weren't in a very good enviroment
@@Dictatortot-n3d Was just about to say this. Any even slightly sensible miner will undervolt as much as possible, it reduces energy cost and allows them to power more GPUs with the same system. Gaming workloads have a lot of fluctuating usage and gamers like overclocking (I'm guilty of that)
@@Dictatortot-n3d If used in a air controlled environment their probably in better shape than a card that lived in badly cooled pc that gets the odd knock, breathed tobacco smoke was covered in dust its entire life.. on the other hand you could get a gaming card thats just never been used. point is, used cards are a risk either way.
I will mine whenever it's cold outside, even if it's not 'profitable' because it's cheaper than running the heater. I have 4 mining rigs w/ 8 6600XTs each in custom wood enclosures that I treat like space heaters. They pull about 1200W and work quite well at keeping my house warm. They mine enough to make a noticeable difference in my electrical costs in the winter too.
somtimes, things just dont wanna play ball. ive had that memory issue, i just switched to another coin, network cards and hard drives not wanting to show up.. some system just wanna fight the whole way.
Turn it into a heater for your house during winters, I've always wanted to do something like this even if its unprofitable. If you break down where the energy goes in a computer, well its pretty much 100% heat. Now you have a 2000W Heater that costs less money to run than any electric heater. Maybe at the cost of noise depending on the installation :P
GPUs are quad uefi, you can set them to normal AMD bios, and use them in windows to process gaming while outputting over an integrated solution. No need to do anything crazy to use them.
nooo, modern cards would whip the snot out of this when rendering. Granted, it is only $400, but I would imagine it cost a fair chunnk to ship it to a customer.
mining is prettymuch dead, but thats not the only thing you can do with that many gpus, you can use some gpus for ai acceleration, but those RX470's would prob be very good at rendering tasks
just as cash is fake printed paper by governments, crypto is solved equations from computers and those answers are the currency. all currencies value comes from demand, just as if noone uses USD anymore usd would have no value, same thing applies. simple way to think about it
It has value in the same way that physical currency has value. Solely because of the fact we choose to give it a value and can trade said currency for other items that we chose to give the same value.
@@hinsie4268 paypal has the option to convert your balance to crypto currency, but there is no way for that to actually gain in value like a savings account.
its a lot to take in, but... that stuff is so helpful to know, linux is a really cool operating system, you can literally install exactly what you need, nothing else, and get good performance from basic hardware. pretty much anything not running windows is linux. ios,Iphone, android, google chrome..... its all good stuff to know about, hive is minimal linux os, not even a desktop, every bit of cpu and ram is dedicated to one task. you pretty much install the os, and change a txt file to set up where the mined funds go. ( if you know, you know )
You could still monetize them creatively wherever electricity must be consumed such as resistance-banks for solar when all the batteries are full and there is otherwise low demand you have to burn the power off (vent it) somewhere. Some power farms already do this and recoup some crypto for power that would have just turned to heat with huge resistor load banks. Then profitability is based on $0.00 per KWh energy. Or subsidized power contract. Or colo/rack situation with "20A 24/7" included and no metering (and no anti-mining ToS). Or hook them up all weekend at random AirBnB's?
The HP (now HPE) power supplies come from a line called Flex Slot Power Supplies. They came in many Wattage sizes, I happen to have 4 of those 1200s on a shelf in my office. Can pick them up cheap on eBay as that Flex Slot design hasn't been used by HPE in like the last 4 generations of servers. Also, that is NOT a 2U case. Full Height GPUs don't fit vertically in 2U, it's at least 4U maybe 5U. 1U is 1.75" so just measure the height and divide by 1.75.
HiveOS is named by the rash you get from the stress of getting it to do anything right. Setting it up off vanilla Ubuntu (and maybe a 3rd party repo or two) always works much better but does also have plenty of potholes and gotcha's. The same types of things you end up trying to fix in HiveOS but with a more restrictive setup.
as a former hobby miner this was quite painful to watch 💀 I wonder if that rig could be repurposed as an AI/deep learning oriented rig tho... a little low on ram it seems and quite power hungry, but for $400 it'd be a steal!
Windows and other operating system can not delete the 7 partitions created by Hive OS and prepare the disk again for installing the operating system Even if you want to reinstall Hive OS You must delete all partitions with the "Partition Master " software, that is, the option to delete all partitions in the "Partition Master" software.
If they are 12x RX 470 Mining Edition you can just plug it to a PC with integrated graphics, flash the correct BIOS which matches the type of memory (samsung, micron, hynix) I normally see those running 2000mhz in the VRAM so its better to get a BIOS that has 1750mhz to make it live longer and there you go, a normal RX 470 but with only a DVI port or not even that
I can help you set it up to mine lol and I'm going to give Matt a large👍 for not giving in trying to do something with Linux with windows. But next time it would have been so much easier to have done everything from a Linux PC from start lol.
That is sad, it still have a lot of "compute" power... I think there could be workarounds (not cheap though, but maybe some DIY could make it cheap)... Watercooling and that heated water could have another use (floor heating, pool heating etc)... With a good job the sound would be almost gone, and all the waste heat (which is why this is not as effective anymore) will go into a usable state again... and it would be effective again... i.e your pool heater does also functions as a crypto miner. Well maybe not in southern USA, but in some parts of the world it could still make money... After that I would run it from solar I think, and just end it with some folding@home stuff (give the compute power away for it's last year of life)... or maybe a public render farm (for cheapskates like me) that wants to some lowres 3D animations... That single R480 (well it's an 8GB) is more then 6 times as fast and with 8 times more memory then my current (but just ordered a GPU though) setup...
This was me the other week... So you think you had issues? I did a big name and found they were taking a big bit of the pie, so skipped out. Now hunting for what to and where to mine is essential. Ive solar, and in the uk we pay £0.26 per kWh.. about $0.30... So if you cant make the math work then no point in trying. Any way we frt paid £0.04 feeding excess solar to the grid, so just needs to make more.. and i did ;) Its was not easy, and there had been a down turn and rather state Market so its not thwt good. But as its costing nothing and a bit of fun, but i still dont know how half of it works... I mined also on a bulldoser!! Old tech. Can in better that a 16 core server thats a lot newer. My old r7 makes around £0.50 for the day (solar) so passove income. But i would buy the hardware as well it costs as much as you make.😅
GPU mining basically stopped working as soon as I bought my 3060ti for way too much a couple of years ago. I also think I have been using it for gaming on a motherboard that couldn't even support it's full speed.
All the hassle is kinda not worth it. If you're unlucky those cards are selling for 25 bucks here. If you're really lucky you might get 50. Its a gamble and especially considering that you need a workaround for these to get them to game, selling 12 of them could be a chore
If them are the 8gb mining 470s. Theres a hidden HDMI port on them but u need to soldar either 6 or 8 wires to get it to display they are beast of cards once you do it tho n u can get em for like 21 bucks a piece if your willing to do the work to get the HDMI port to work.
I would be curious to see if I could get Folding@Home to run on this and run protein folding simulations across all 12 GPUs, that would be kind of a fun project. Folding@Home is definitely not about profitability, but is a nice way to give back. Still makes sense to try to make it more power-efficient. But again, could be a fun project.
Few questions. Were you running out of RAM? I went with the 'x79' 5 slot mobo and it takes a $20-30 32GB DDR3 LRDIMM. Secondly, did you try any undervolting tricks to get the GPUs to a more efficient power/performance level? Maybe less hash, but way less power? Crazy vid 😂. Too bad about the weak CPU, could have tried Proxmox and run a whole LAN party off Chromebooks with SteamLink 😅
you have to solder the hdmi port for it to to work. it works if you do that. Also the drivers are weird, you need a modded bios. I forgot the youtube person i saw this from. OHHH IT WAS KROOTMAN
This rig might work if we swapped those gpu into a nvme carrier card , a cheapo ssd nas maybe ? Limited pcie lanes but for that price cant complain too much
Yo, I am a disabled Navy Vet and have been wanting to get into crypto mining. My back is destroyed so I have no income and am having hell trying to find a job I am able to do.

use it as a render node for blender. that's where my mind goes.
install a normal linux distro or windows and find out what other can do? Like Rendering videos or other gpu related task.
it will cost me more than it could make.never mind cost of running it vs what it will make.
Yo, I am a disabled Navy Vet and have been wanting to get into crypto mining. My back is destroyed so I have no income and am having hell trying to find a job I am able to do. I would love a crypto rig like this one so I can get started mining and would gladly TH-cam the adventure and mention you guys in the videos.
Help me out and send me that rig when you done playing with it!
You may want to buy arc gpu's & a handful of used chromebooks and start some small cloud video rendering farm rather than this megahash insanity.
buddy wat thy arnt doing that
Do the GPUs have to be the same or can I replace one with a more profitable card (like a 1070) and leave the rest of the RX 470s in there?
Ergo and other low power algos would be a lot cooler and draw less watts,.
Me with a closet of 7200 RPM fans on 2 & 1U racks 😢
Jesus christ 50-70 bucks for a 4070.
I really should move to a different country.
You'd be hard pressed to find a working 1050 for 70-80 bucks.
RX 470, not RTX 4070
@@benjaminsmekens2344 oh, that makes more sense
You think the reason why it's soooo clean and soooo cheap is because whoever you bought it from was having problems with it?
2:07 That's a 4u case not a 2u...
that brick cant even pay it own eletric bill, dont buy that thinking u will ever profit, unless u have free electrecity, you can get around the same hashrate with a single 6800XT and 1/6 of power consumption!
I much prefer Rufus to Balena Etcher. Rufus is a small portable application that can run no install. Balena is what 150MB and needs installed? Not sure why it's so bloated.
