    WTB: Macbook Pro (M1 or M2)

    I'm trying to get something for travel/work that will also double for some misc. gaming. Kind of sick of windows lately. I have a microcenter nearby and they just dropped the base M2 14" to $1900 so please keep that in mind. Models I'm interested in: 14" M1 or M2 13" M2 - if it has 16GB of...

    Epyc Build

    So.... I saw someone selling a 7J13 AMD Epyc on ebay and couldn't resist. It seems to be basically a an Epyc 7763 chip built for OEMs. 64 cores, base clock of 2.45GHz, boosts to 3.52GHz, based on Milan (Zen 3). NKD hooked me up with a new GPU earlier so I decided to make a "workstation" for fun...

    GPU repair: bad PCIE traces?

    I just picked up this used 3070 as non-working (green lines on display) and wanted to see if anyone had thoughts on if I’m going down the right track for repairs. (Paging razorwind, haha). So far I don’t see any burnt components and physical damage just looks like a dent on the metal backplate...

    What are you buying in the bear market?

    I'm thinking the 3xxx series will be kind of like the 1xxx and have one more bull-run left in it before they're obsolete, especially with the gimped memory bus on the 4xxx series, so I've kept my cards for now. Not sure if I'll pick up more while they're cheap or see what next gen comes along...

    Ryzen 7000 Series Efficiency

    RTX 3080 ($800 - $180 in newegg credit = $620)

    I bought one of these from newegg awhile back, unfortunately before this deal came along; no perfume smell on mine either. Above-average construction quality & packaging with average cooling. VRAM temps aren't as high as some of my other cards while mining but I haven't done any stress...

    Yes, you can run over your GPU with a car

    Some of you might think a 5,000lb SUV running over something like a fragile GPU would destroy it, but fear not. You too can safely run your GPUs over to your heart's content and they (*may) not be any worse for wear. The story: I bought a GPU from NobleX13 and USPS decided to throw it in the...

    RTX 3060TIs with Hynix v2 memory @ 65MH/s+

    You can identify these cards by the "6B" in the BIOS/memory details (ie. 94.04.6B.00.A0 = hynix v2 memory). I don't know if there are specific model numbers that help correspond to this (probably not), but one of my MSI 3060TIs has it. Best case, you can probably get around 65MH/s at 140W...

    CPU Mining Builds (My adventure with Epycs)

    I thought I'd share my results of exploring sketchy ebay & alibaba listings in search of higher CPU hashrates in randomx at a low cost. (These results are basically the same for raptoreum except you can save money by using slower memory / less channels) I basically narrowed things down to a few...

    WTB SAS Drives

    Anyone have some available? Looking for sizes around 6TB - 12TB, 3.5". I can fit two per server so maybe up to 6 total. I'm running an LSI 2308 controller so I think either 4kn or 512e will both work. Price target is about $10/TB. Trying to setup some fileservers in Raid 1 so I can stop messing...

    Xilinx C1100 FPGA (ETH & KASPA)

    CPU Version of whattomine?

    Has anyone come across something like whattomine for cpu mining? The closest I've found is https://www.cryptunit.com/ One thing I kinda like about it is you can input a hashrate in one algo and I guess get a rough estimate of other algos and a profitability estimate of different coins. Not...

    How do you manage your IPMI etc. credentials?

    1U Power Supplies for Servers?

    Anyone have experience with small PSUs (mini-ITX / 1U form factor) with enough output for about 300-400W of CPU usage? It turns out there's a computer recycling warehouse down the street from me so I have a consistent supply of $40 servers. They're all generally fully functional but are ancient...

    My Latest creation

    I thought I'd share this. I've been researching moving everything into server racks so airflow is easier to manage. My last test with a tesla s1070 system didn't really work out. I think it's possible but I've heard you need to have at least 1 of the original GPUs inserted for it to work...

    Safe to run GPU without VRM heatsinks?

    Normally I wouldn't do this but I'm trying to test out a build using 1U and that doesn't leave a lot of room for GPUs. I have a semi-functional MSI vega 56 but I need to remove the cover and metal fan shroud that doubles as a heatsink for the misc. parts for proper airflow. The black metal part...

    A more advanced ebay scam

    So apparently the mechanism of the scam is this: Scammer lists some cheap items to get real feedback. Then they start listing expensive items to scam people on.

    GPU Pricing Trends

    I stole this from reddit but for the past couple of months some user has estimated that GPU prices have decreased by about 20% per month. This matches up with what I think everyone is seeing in the market, but since then it looks like prices might be bottoming out for now and even going back up...
