00:56:57 .bal 00:56:57 fibonacci12358: 0.00002337 XMR (≈$0.00) 01:22:54 is this the official monero chat? 01:23:37 one of them, yes 01:24:04 so like the libera chat onea are the official channels? 01:24:12 pretty new to irc 01:27:05 test message please ignore sample text one two three four five 01:27:19 oh nvm sorry 01:33:36 <1​23bob123:matrix.org> Yest 02:20:31 forestfuturist: why "forest futurist"? 03:34:23 No, it is mostly peaceful, there was something related to child abuse material here a couple weeks ago 04:00:46 so instead of having consistent chaos like in the monero discord, you have peace occasionally punctuated by hell in the monero space 04:00:47 makes sense 04:01:13 The glowies in this room want to keep it peaceful so we keep discussing about it 04:01:15 😄 04:01:26 The glowies in this room want to keep it peaceful so we keep discussing about it and not distract ourselves 04:04:26 <1​23bob123:matrix.org> Secret exposed 04:04:39 <1​23bob123:matrix.org> “Recanman has car accident” 04:24:12 well it being peaceful is a nice change of pace 04:48:09 most of the specific stuff gets funneled to other, more specific channels. this room seems to be more like a help/support/guidance/general discussion. more active chat is in #monero-pools 05:11:51 #monero-pools? 05:11:53 im not in that room 05:14:51 bro ye got an invite up there? 05:15:15 is that the monero mining channel but its named pools 05:41:56 anyone got the invite 05:42:01 to #monero pools 05:42:24 Join it yourself 05:42:34 #monero-pools:monero.social 05:42:34 shiiit 05:42:35 nvm 05:42:35 i figured out how to 05:42:36 search spaces 05:42:45 Yep 05:42:46 i am now liking matrix/element more 05:43:07 only gripe i have about it is no in depth search like if i want to find an image i search "has: image" 05:43:53 eh still good, though 16:29:48 on a mining related topic, i found this 16:29:51 https://www.ebay.com/itm/204381517887 16:29:52 a 40k hashrate chip for fourty six and a half dollars 16:30:34 i very literally do not know how or why sellers are selling such high grade cpus for about as much as two scientific calculators 16:32:14 also this https://www.ebay.com/itm/284933910731 16:46:52 Because these chips are almost indestructible 16:46:58 motherboards, on the other hand... 16:47:00 try to find one 16:47:43 so lots of still working chips, and no motherboards to put them into 17:09:44 hm somebody has been consolidating a *lot* of outputs 17:17:56 aight bet 17:19:58 https://www.ebay.com/itm/386065878645 17:20:00 ez 17:20:17 65 dollar for a duel socket LGA2011-V3 17:20:28 there are 45 of the on ebay, actually 17:20:35 there are 45 of them on ebay, actually 17:23:02 slap some ram on it and a random usb stick to boot off of or something and you have an 80k hashrate setup for like 17:23:17 200 17:26:25 The only issue is piss poor efficiency (if you care about profit) 17:27:38 tf you mean efficency 17:27:43 it does 80k hashes for little over 400 watts 17:27:52 assuming a duel setup 17:28:57 I was looking at xmrbench for a skylake xeon. It averaged 9.7kh with a power consumption of 100watts 17:29:40 Unless I'm dumber than rocks and din't look deep enough, lol. 17:30:46 Intel chip are less efficient than AMD chips since Ryzen exit so I really doubt you can do 80kh for 400W 17:31:56 Intel chip are less efficient than AMD chips since Ryzen exist so I really doubt you can do 80kh for 400W 17:32:00 Found what I should have seen: https://xmrig.com/benchmark?cpu=Intel%28R%29+Xeon%28R%29+CPU+E7-8890+v4+%40+2.20GHz 17:32:00 https://www.coinwarz.com/mining/monero/calculator?h=80.00&p=500.00&pc=0.10&pf=0.00&d=252961657429.00000000&r=0.65000000&er=0.00546430&btcer=25731.45210000&ha=KH&hc=200&hs=0&hq=1 17:32:00 yes maybe it aint accurate, but assuming 500W power consumption, even in 0.1/kWh prices you get a decent chunk of cash 17:32:01 its accurate enough from what i have seen, though 17:32:01 also if you get cheaper electricity than 0.1/kWh this is well efficient enough to earn lots of profit 17:32:02 You do earn money. I need to get it asap XD 17:32:02 https://www.cryptocompare.com/mining/calculator/xmr?HashingPower=40&HashingUnit=KH%2Fs&PowerConsumption=152&CostPerkWh=0.12&MiningPoolFee=0 17:32:28 naw jit each chip's tdp is 165 and does 40k hashes 17:32:42 combined is 330 watts for 80k hashes, round up a bit and you get 400 watts 17:32:44 round up more and you get 500 watts but its still fire 17:32:50 Intel TDP is only when boost is off 17:33:01 oh 17:33:05 expect double that if the CPU actually run full bore 17:33:17 so probably more like 600W for 40kh 17:33:41 shi i have to measure that then 17:33:53 so i need 0.05/kWh to be as profitable or something 17:33:53 eh cant be that bad 17:33:54 so probably more like 300W for 40kh 17:34:52 it's a steal if you can find cheap power, basically 17:34:52 150 day break-even point assuming 0.05/kWh and 1kw for the entire setup 17:35:37 According to the 40Kh bench you guys linked, it's for 4 CPU setupe7-8890 17:35:41 oups 17:36:00 ignore (correction incomming 17:36:00 w h a t 17:36:01 naw jit what 17:36:19 yeah, each cpu are 24 cores 17:36:20 you need 4 for 96 cores 17:36:26 96 cores will give you 40khz 17:36:32 Lol. It was 17:36:33 shiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiit 17:37:30 now i have to actually read the benchmarks 17:37:35 goddamn xmrig 17:37:37 Expect over 1200W if running at full bore 17:37:38 naw jit real question is 17:37:40 where the mfs finding 4 socket boards 17:40:03 ok i think i should actually start 17:40:03 reading the xmrig benchmarks for details 17:40:26 point taken 17:41:58 also 17:42:16 does anyone have a spreadsheet version of xmrig's benchmark page? 17:42:23 it would be significantly less of a pain in the ass to analyze 17:45:56 fuck i just realized every server listing on xmrig benchmark is 17:45:58 2 cpus 17:46:02 does this mean i should seek out desktop cpus? 17:46:09 The one you linker earlier are for 4 cpus 17:46:19 2 cpus or more 17:46:23 sorry, corrected 17:46:29 Get Ryzen for max efficiency 17:46:29 3000 or 5000 serie with samsung b-die 17:48:57 blud most of these used ryzen's do less than an equivalent server chip even when considering the fact that most of them are 2/4 cpu benchmarks 17:49:49 i really need to make that spreadsheet i was talking about 17:50:36 40kh for >1000w (Intel server CPU, 4 cpu) 17:50:36 18kh for ~120w (AMD Desktop CPU) 17:50:39 so would be like 300w for over 40kh with amd 17:51:32 Should go in #xmrmine:matrix.org , that way you can ask more actual miners that don't monitor this channel 17:51:40 maybe threadrippers will be beter? 17:51:43 yeah but there is the factor of cost ,though 17:52:24 these intel server chips can be found for 50 dollars a pop or so 17:52:27 that singular amd desktop cpu costs more than that 4 cpu setup 17:52:30 Threadripper are not better if you consider price and performance per cores. 17:52:31 More core, at full bore, they run slower than ryzen cores 17:52:36 aight 17:52:39 True, Old Intel server stuff are cheaper 17:52:49 but way less efficient 17:53:03 so at the end it depend how you pay for power... if it's actually worth it 17:56:40 eh for me i am planning to mine in a country with 0.02/kWh elec prices so yeah it works better for me 20:44:01 creating a wallet via monero wallet gui, what does it mean by bootstrap, and how do i select a server? 23:31:50 bootstrap means your daemon will serve blocks etc from random nodes until it is fully synced. if you want to manually set a remote node, which I would recommend, select advanced mode
