[Music] thank you
what's going on everyone welcome to the Rabid Mining YouTube channel and I'm here to say no
crypto mining is not dead well maybe it depends what you mind with GPU mining might be dead
currently and could for a little while but as for crypto mining you always see the question
everywhere is crypto mining debt is crypto mining dead no it's not dead GPU mining's dead for a
little bit here but crypto mining in general is by far anywhere from dead so we're going to take
a little look here at my 30 CPU mining Farm as you can see we have some A6 and everything here I'm
kind of doing some remodeling I also got this big huge 71 inch wide husky rack which if I could fill
this thing up so lengthwise this thing is about from that rack to that rack wide I could probably
get had about six uh in a row here because it's also deeper I may be able to fit three rigs per
row so times that by four I think I'd be able to fit around 70 CPU mining rigs on this single
four-tiered Rock so that's pretty awesome there I actually want to get another one two will fit
across that entire wall over there and have room to open up so I'm probably going to do something
like that later on I picked up another two pole 30 amp breaker so this is for 240 volt because
I do plan once I do set those up I want to move everything to the other wall and because I only
have a single 30 amp 240 volt which is good for about 5700 watts you know in total power you're
80 percent good for about 7 200 Watts or something like that the max but we don't run it that way for
safety issues I want to have my CPUs on their own 30 amp circuit and then I'm going to point my gpus
and these Asics and stuff currently on the same thing over there the gpus will be off for a while
but the A6 and stuff that jazz minor q and so on will be all together on their own with my
CPU separated we can see right now I'm hanging out at about 3 930 Watts you know just under uh
right there and that is with that jazz Miner X4 Q which is 500 watts these are 235 watts each
and depending on these you know we're 145 200 some and so on so like my CPU rigs are only using about
2300 Watts or so in power there's 27 of them here I got that one over there and the little ones PC
the 3700x and in the other room we got the 7950x in the workstation and another 3900x working as
my server PC so I will go through profitability later on this video because I'm sure that's all
most you guys care about is how profitable is the CPU these days and whatnot but we'll look at that
later I do want to go over how I'm experimenting and trying multiple power supplies out I've talked
about in the past never really went too in depth in it I don't want to go too in depth in it in
this video as well because it may just take you know this will be like a 40 50 minute video so I
just want to run through everything because some people may not have caught those other
videos but I will do like a dedicated video on the setup process so these five rigs here now
I could get six on it but they are running off a 1200 watt server power supply this is hanging out
right here it's using this parallel Miner breakout board it's part of the Christmas Halloween package
and it's using 14 gauge cables which then go to Barrel plugs by default now I do have one still
running right here we looked at this through a thermal temperature camera and we saw that it is
running warm so I want to swap that out sometime but right now I've slowly been moving them over
to these Anderson plugs and they're much safer no issues whatsoever with these These are rated for
30 amps a piece all the way up to 600 watts or I mean 600 volt obviously we're only using 12 volts
so in this case it it's good for around 300 watts or so and our CPUs are not pulling that each CPU
is probably just dishing out depending what you're mining anywhere from 80 to 100 watts per entire
system not just the CPU that's your motherboard SSD M2 whatever you're using cooler everything
80 to 100 Watts depending on the algorithm you're mining so CPU rigs don't use that much power now
when running these server power supplies you also have to keep in mind you do need these picots so
these Picos act as your 24 pin they also produce the power going into your motherboard your SSD
whatever depending how you are run it these ones are running off ssds later on you know I did swap
over to m2s it's much more cleaner you can get them tighter together much more Compact and just
looks nicer So eventually I'll probably Swap all these out you can see I have some ssds on these
ones we got these 24 pin motherboard Splitters now we went from this style here over to here and
there's two ways to go about an ATX PSU and linking two rigs together so one PSU two CPU
mining rigs one is with this 24 pin CPU splitter and then the other is a CPU pin splitter so again
links in the description they may be selling out fast I have been looking at them there weren't
very many left so they could be gone at this point hopefully they get more stock to these in
but another option if you cannot find these CPU Splitters no they are not PCI Express Splitters
it's specifically CPU Splitters the pin out layouts are a little bit different there so
the PCI Express will not work I tried it it didn't boot I got lucky I didn't fry something so just
don't do it guys but yeah you can utilize a lot of CPUs or I mean ATX psus these days do have
two CPU outputs so therefore I believe which one which rigs do I have running that actually these
two right here are running off two CPUs layouts coming out of the atex power supply so here we can
see the just two cables coming in one is going to this rig the other is going to this rig and
then the 224 pins are linked through that same 24 pin splitter so I'm trying different ways out so
far this seems to be the best option now this is still a great option but like I said it probably
will start costing a little bit more because you do need those picots which are anywhere from 20 to
30 bucks a piece plus you need to get the breakout board and then you also need to get these Anderson
plugs because the barrel plugs they did start to heat up and melt especially if you got the wrong
ones they'd only last like an hour if that now you need the 2.5 to 5 millimeters and a lot of people
were getting 2.1 to 5 millimeters and those two point ones they will melt and they'll be a fire
hazard very fast So eventually it's even the good ones you know the 2.5S they did start to heat up
and melt a little bit but I didn't run into any issues but I did swap muscles Anderson plugs and
again that's just more cost to your whole operator racing but if you already got everything you know
what you may as well use them and I'm going to fit a couple more rigs on this server power supply
and remember you want to try to run as close to 50 percent of the power supply as you can because the
majority of power supplies ATX as well as server psus Peak efficiency rating is at the 50 Mark of
utilizing that power supply so keep these things in mind when purchasing so example these are only
using like 160 to 200 Watts you may only need a 4 to 450 watt ATX PSU or something like that for
this unless you decide to overclock a little higher and in that case you'll probably have
to opt in for more expensive motherboard so you know it's always depending on how you're going to
utilize them and what your power price is myself I try to run efficiency so I'm not using much power
which means smaller power supplies which means usually they're also a little cheaper as well
well so I was just gonna about to talk about the old crypto mining how mining is is not dead and I
was about to look at these things and I see I have a dead fan here so I'm going to find something see
if I can hijack that fan to spin again right quick all right so I found a little screwdriver so I'm
just going to kind of poke this in there and give it a spin oh it feels pretty tight oh that's stiff
that's a stiff fan um okay so the bearings might have wet on this fan I'll unplug it and try it
again I don't know exactly which Miner this is but one is a mini Doge Pro and the other
one is a KD box Pro and I don't know which one is which at this point so I'm going to unplug
this plug it back in see if that fan starts again but I don't think it's going to because that is a
pretty stiff fan oh it's getting actually a lot looser here let's just mess around with it a bit
oh wait is it gonna go oh we fixed it there we go all right so I didn't have to reset nothing
our fan is rolling again awesome all right guys easy fix for a broken fan in this case it wasn't
really broken but it was definitely jammed up with something all right so back to what I was going to
say is everyone got into GPU mining because it was profitable grab a bunch of cards slap them
together you can expand really easily and fast and not much space being used up which is true but now
GPU mining is not profitable unless you have six cents actually that's about break-even point right
now you need under six cents to be profitable so all you guys out there that's telling yourself
it's profitable or somehow it's going to be good after six cents you're lying to yourself you know
get over it buy the coin guys you're gonna get more crypto for that future pump regardless moving
on we have Asics here for ETC we have ethos algorithm as well that's your FW you know and
um you know what's up there pink chains out there various other we got Callisto out there
that's been a very profitable coin lately as well actually one of the top profitable on the ethash
algorithm lately and then we got our mini Doge Dogecoin has been pumping now we have a Litecoin
having coming up early next year that may affect it but if Dogecoin keeps going up that may counter
balance it with the merge money and remain with these Litecoin script type of miners as being a
little bit profitable here we also have the KD box Pro they're doing very well right now even
still but once the ka3 comes online you know I'm a little bit iffy about that I don't think
it's going to be too hot of a product anymore but right now it's at least still decent and
fairly profitable and of course we got our CPUs and whatnot now we also looked at it the other
day we got this Evergreen Chia Miner which is also fairly profitable it easily covers power costs and
you're making some money now the ROI is you know a long time but you're profitable so you at least
have an Roi so there's also helium out there it can be profitable if you're in a decent spot now
I am a lone wolf minor this is currently a gold shell ugw800 that has not yet been released but
it is coming soon I don't know the full specs on this operation yet but it's supposed to be up of
5G as well but I cannot confirm that till I get more details on this Miner now I do got to set
that Miner up soon but as you can see here the past 24 hours I've actually made 80 cents being
a lone wolf Miner I have two of my own hot spots set up around I don't know four blocks apart from
each other so we'll see what happens once I do set up that other one but right now I'm even making 80
cents mining or farming or whatever it is proof of network space stuff 80 cents helium at the current
moment so that's still kind of Prof but only like five to ten Watts so just a quick run down here
there's lots of other profitable ways to mine cryptocurrencies not just gpus now you look on
Reddit or something everyone's talking mining is dead mining is not dead just the GPU views are so
I know you guys have been waiting you know what's the profitability of a CPU these days and what are
you mining so let's jump into the workstation I'm going to take a look at the CPU mining calculator
which is on my website robinminding.com be sure to use it yourself if you're looking at
CPU mining profits and let's see exactly what we could be making here all right guys so let's take
a look of the profitability of my CPU Farm here and this 3700x is not in here currently because
I haven't done all the full tests and we don't have the presets for it yet but entering all the
hash rates 11 cents per kilowatt hour we can see Duro is currently making about 25 dollars and 18
cents before power 17.65 after power and we're in a bear Market guys that's not too bad considering
you know crypto prices are down we have had a little pump recently but you know not too too
bad but anyway we got bittorium here 1258 before 5.10 after power we got jaggercoin 4 dollars and
19 cents after power raptorium 3.93 after power bamboo we're at a dollar after power and this is
11 cents per kilowatt hour now if I went to look at my average so for 30 rakes here 25.18 divided
by 30 is about 83 cents per rig so my farm is averaging 83 cents before power on a single
3900x and I'm coming into what to Mine I'm gonna throw in a 30 70 at the same 11 cents per kilowatt
hour and the reason I like to compare to 30 70s is one the 3070 is like the go-to GPU for everyone in
terms of efficiency and the majority of algorithms seems to be like the best GPU everybody wants
personally I would recommend an A2000 over it but then you know you got density issues and too many
gpus yada yada yada I don't think we could ever have too many gpus but regardless I go against
the 30 70 also it comes down to price you can build a 3900x rig for both the price case of an
MSRP 3070 now you can find those cheaper now in used markets but the prices are still there but
regardless before power look at this 24 cents 26 Cents obviously we're in the negatives after
power on all of these coins here but even if you had free power on a 30 70 a 3900 X is over double
of your free Power costs here at 83 cents here 30 cents 18 cents 19 cents 30 cents 22 cents 16
28 15. you can see the trend here across any GPU minable coin a 3900 X is over double the profits
on it in today's market so it's pretty insane how these CPUs are actually coming more Forefront
into the spotlight when previously everyone said CPU mining is garbage and no one's ever going to
do it all right guys so there we have it a quick look at inside of my farm and what I currently got
going on now a fast little Glimpse at some future plans on expansion and stuff that I do want to do
it's going to be really expensive it's going to take quite a bit of time to slowly carry it out
it's not going to happen all at once it may be a one or two year process but you know it's just
future plans set your goals do whatever you got to do and just slowly work towards those goals now if
everyone goes out there and actually purchases a bunch of CPUs obviously it's going to fall into
the same boat as gpus where the difficulty is too high and you know nothing will be profitable with
CPUs or gpus then we got to revert back to only Asics or something you know it's a never-ending
kind of thing going on back and forth all the time but you know what that's what we got to deal with
as miners that's just the way the whole networks and difficulties and profitability does work
so thank you for watching this video guys I will see you on the next one Rabid Out [Music] foreign
