    Ford Mustang Mach E Leak: Mustang goes Electric

    The US is 3.2 trillion vehicle miles per year or 8.77 billion miles per day. https://fred.stlouisfed.org/series/M12MTVUSM227NFWA Daily US consumption of gasoline and diesel in 2019 was over 550 million gallons per day (13.4 million barrels/day * 42 gallons)...

    Intel Core i9-12900K, i7-12700K, i5-12600K Specs, Pricing & New TDP!

    It's not really a fair comparison, the 5900X being compared only scored 20.2K vs the 12900K's >27K. Without LN2, the 5900X can't overclock high enough to reach that score, and even a 5950X will need considerably more watts than stock to reach it, its stock score is only about 25.5K. The 12900K...

    Undervolting an 11th Gen Intel Core(TM) i7-1165G7

    From what I've read, the 4-core Tiger Lakes are not undervoltable, Intel disabled that functionality. It doesn't help you but Intel seems to have re-allowed undervolting on the newly released 8-core Tiger Lakes.

    Daily Mining Profits

    I think for most Canadians, claiming it as a "hobby" will be better. There you don't claim expenses but only half of the mining profit (edit: at the time when you trade the coins for fiat or other coins) is taxed at your marginal rate.

    Ethereum 2.0 staking

    One of the benefits of staking on pools and exchanges is many of them offer a method to unstake if you have an emergency need for ETH or funds. On staking, they convert it to another token that can be traded back for unstaked Ethereum, though not 1:1 until withdrawals are enabled on the...

    Who is mining with 3XXX or cards?

    For Ethereum these days with Pascal cards, you'll likely get better results with overclocking the core and under-clocking memory or keeping around stock. The increased size of the DAG has changed what's optimal now.

    i7 10700 - voltage, power consumption, temps

    I think that's expected, the high CPU power usage comes mainly from applications that use AVX heavily. Gaming don't utilize cores nearly as much.

    Who is mining with 3XXX or cards?

    There's several factors that come into play in determining the mining rewards. 1) The amount of transaction fees, which are added to the default 2 ETH block reward. In periods of increased transactions (such as euphoria during a rapid price increase), this can account for 2 to 4+ ETH. 2) Your...

    HWiNFO NVIDIA GPU Memory Junction Temperature (New in Version 6.42)

    I find it work best (with a bit of dragging and clicking) to get a flat curve at the desired clock speed. I ended up at 1125 on a Tuf 3090, though at almost identical hash rates and power usage compared to your 3090.

    HWiNFO NVIDIA GPU Memory Junction Temperature (New in Version 6.42)

    For a 3090, you could reduce core clocks even more. 1100 MHz is enough (with sufficient memory bandwidth) to hit 120+ Mhash/s.

    Ampere ETH Memory Clocks

    With Windows and not changing the default P2 State on Cuda setting, this is how your card ends up at 10451: Default: 9500 P2 State on Cuda application, downclocks by 250: 9250 Overclock: 9250+1200 = 10450 (rounded to 10451 probably due to the clock generator increments)

    Consumer Reports Pulls Tesla Model 3 Recommendation Again

    It's not new, the scores were from years ago and done by the US Government's NHTSA. However, since the introduction of the Model X, it's yet to be tested by other agencies, such as IIHS or Europe's NCAP. The Model S's NHTSA's scores were used to claim incredible safety as well, but didn't do...

    Tesla Stock Drops Following Employee Layoff Announcement

    Their shares are priced like they're a growth tech stock with years of several dozen percentage growth in revenue/year ahead and nearly unlimited demand for the Model 3. Q3 was also supposed to be the beginning of a golden period of earnings. Now, the warnings indicate the assumptions were wrong.

    Solar Roadways Aren't Worth the Investment

    I think this is correct. Typical capacity factor in Europe is in the low teens, utility solar in the American SW desert is in the mid 20%, so 8% is terrible. 4% is so bad they should have just painted the road to look like solar panels and put the solar panels somewhere else.
