      Ok cool, pool is recording my contributions, 0.03 XMR so far (so about $13). Thinking about buying 3x 1080TI to stick in my server. Would double my hashrate, at XMR=$445 and $750/GPU would recoup capital expenditure in ~8mo, and my apartment would finally be warm. Hmmm.

      pulled the trigger and picked up 2x1080 and 1x1080TI my server board can handle 3x double slot cards but might get a bit tight with 3x1080TI, so going to relocate the 1080 in my casual box to the server and stick the 1080TI in that machine should still be Plenty

          Evidence of mining capacity expansion: AMZN is out of stock on high-end PSUs. Had to debase myself with a Corsair and pay for rush on Newegg. Earlier, ended up getting another 1080ti, figured out I can cram 3x1080 in my consumer rig and 3x1080ti in my workstation.

          Okay. Pulling in about $8/day in XMR with CPUs, $17.50 in BTC from @NiceHashMining with 3x1080 and 1x1080ti. The 1080ti hashrate is double any one 1080 (!!!). Stacking 3 gpus in my workstation is getting a little toasty (85c even with a box fan), SO . . .

          . . . in the interest of learning and also because I realized the case (Mercury S8) can be converted to a GPU rack with a little modification, I'm going to grab some risers and see if I can extend my GPU working life by spacing them out. Pics to follow when set up.

          So: two circuits serving the apartment, one for hardwired lights, one for everything else. Hmmm. Guess I could take down a chandelier and rewire it to an outlet. Or just make use of an existing set of wires from the ceilingpic.twitter.com/4SFDA5dHk6

          Before I do that, though, going to flip the breaker and see what still works outlet-wise. My guess is nothing but gotta be sure.

          Interesting. Flipping the switch disables lights *and* outlets. Possibilities: 1. Single circuit, 20A 2. One breaker switch controls two 10A circuits First possibility would be the most convenient. Unsure how to test. Need to read up on breaker notation next I think.

          Helpful mutuals assure me (1) it's a single fixed 20A circuit and (2) fucking with the circuit breaker will result in literal face melting, so spent the evening playing with GPU optimization. Heat actually a major bottleneck when 3 GPUs arrayed with no space, surprising no one.

          So, working around this. Earlier plan for 16x -> 1x risers for my case won't work since *all* the slots in my board are x8/x16 form factor. Instead, repurposing my pseudo-NAS box to hold one 1080, and going to kludge a different solution with a ribbon riser in my workstation.

          Rearranged things a bit more, jammed one of my 1080s into the mATX rig I was using as NAS. Probably consumes ~300W full tilt, which is more than my refrigerator. Wiferobot is going to want to store perishables, so I'm renting space for it in my DM's house at $25/mo + electricity

          Semi-final setup. Consumer rig, workstation, converted NAS. Calibrating now. Worried about toasting my 20A circuit and also about heat dissipation and finally about long-term fan noise irritating my cat, so workstation cards likely to be throttled Bonus: catpic.twitter.com/w7b8KE2Rxi

          bit of quick computation 20A maximum instantaneous load is 2400W; maximum continuous load, 1920W turns out a continuous load runs >= *3 hours* this is actually great news for me, refrigerator turns on only intermittently and probably draws substantially less than 480W
