• Ethereum (ETH) • Ethereum Classic (ETC) • HUSH (HUSH) • Feathercoin (FTC) • MONAcoin (MONA) • Zcash (ZEC) • Zencash (ZEN) As usual, we mine what is most profitable and convert it into what we want. As things stand today, however, it’s more profitable to just straight-up mine Ethereum as opposed to converting something else. Like most things, that too, will change in time. Mining-capable GPUs are hard to come by once again. While price-wise GTX 1070 cards are usually the better buy (they pay off faster and ) we tripped across some EVGA GTX 1070 Ti cards that were priced right.

19 GPU Mining Rig Build Sheet Here’s our shopping list for the 19 GPU B250 Mining Expert Build. 19 GPU Ethereum Mining Rig motherboard: ASUS B250 Mining Expert Missing Mining Rig Parts What’s missing? We are only specifying 13 1070 Tis. Everything we’ve read says that you can only get 13 to run and then you round out the board with 6 other cards. We’ll keep you posted when we’ve selected them. We’re also still deciding what we want to do for the PSUs (or should I say, we’re shopping around for good deals on PSUs). We may go with server PSUs with breakout boards or may stay off-the-shelf.

And, there are some parts we have kicking around so we didn’t mention anything beyond the core components (Y-splitters, etc.). We’ll do a complete writeup and include the final build list then. This one isn’t going to be as straightforward. There’s fussiness getting all 19 cards up, and we might try a new OS this round.

We’ve been running Windows 10 historically, but certainly aren’t tied to it. Almost all of the components have arrived or are en route. It looks like a couple of pieces may hold us up a bit. Are you running a 19 GPU Mining Rig with the B250 Mining Expert? Let us know below! We’ll take all the advice we can get!

Oct 23, 2017 Is GPU Mining dead and is my GPU ETH ZEC and ZenCash Mining Farm making any profits or am I sinking into endless debt? What to do when your GPU Rig is not.

You look at our bill and you probably think we’re crazy. You look at our profits, and you probably won’t. We’re mining ZenCash and ZCash.

This post is based on the standard of a “Trio.” A Trio is a mining rig made up of two 1080Tis and one 1070 mini. As you can see, ZenCash is a little over $7/day for these guys. ZenCash actually just shot up to be the top coin to mine for these. As long as you mine, hold for a couple weeks or months, you can wait for an opportune time to sell. That’s how you will make a lot more money and how GPU mining is not “dead.” The more people holding and going for long-term as opposed to short term will only drive the prices up even more. As you all know, we’re big believers and supporters of ZenCash (ZEN).

Bottom line is it’s a good coin and it has a good team behind it. To read more about What is ZenCash, check out this post. We also have a whole of ZenCash videos on YouTube.

We mine ZenCash for the long-term holding and ZCash (ZEC) for the short-term holding and to help pay all the expenses, like the massive electric bill. Oh and the $20k worth of debt that we’ve invested in crypto mining materials for the mining farm. That’s how much we believe in this! We’re making about $7/day per rig with over 20 rigs. Electric is costing around $1/day per rig, which comes out to a profit of around $6/day.

With everything in there, profits are about $170/day, which comes out to about $4200/month. Bitcoin Gold BTG Mining Investment Calculator. The farm is at 40,000 sols/hashes–also stay tuned for another video and blog post about the making of the farm.

We’ll lay out everything from the structure to the equipment behind it. And here’s what you’ve been waiting for! My electric bill: This is our last electric bill.

Our new one actually just came in and we’ll go over that one next, but this gives a more accurate breakdown for our numbers listed above. This bill includes: • The mining farm, which runs full speed 24/7 on 240V.

We use 240V because it’s more efficient and consumes less energy. • A couple 120V rigs we keep in the house for testing. • And the general electric cost for our house. Let’s look at the overview: 30 days in a month, $766 bill. We have to mine for 5-7 days to cover our farm’s expenses.

That gives us 23-25 days of straight profiting. And once you reach the breakeven point on your equipment, everything is paid for and electric is your only expense. Our mindset is the sooner you get into mining, the sooner it will get paid off and the sooner you buy into crypto, the sooner it will accrue value. Obviously you still want to make smart buys: buy low and sell high. Of the coins that What to Mine lists that are most profitable, we think ZenCash has the most potential.

The price point is at a good spot and it has a future to grow. And the platform is still under development.

People forget that ZenCash was basically born this summer and they’re consistently a top coin to mine and hold. And the rumor we’ve heard is that ZCash is set to double by the end of the year. Both are good coins we like to mine and hold. Stay tuned for our next electric bill-how high will we go??

Here’s a video recap of our electric bill, what we’re mining right now, and our profitability. And we are now active on all of our social media platforms so give us a like or a follow!
