This video will get you up and running , just remember its not a get rich quick system but if you already have the gpu/graphics card then its free money minus electricity cost.

But it shows 27 trojans when i scanned with Virus Total :leaving:
video is very good but i just do not trust this lolminer 1.31 from github

i scanned with Virus Total with more than 27 trojans reported , i never mentioned anything about Anti Virus :confused:
That is a bit much for a False positive ???
i would appreciate if you could upload your Version as i do not wanna take chances with that amount of unknown $hit in 1 program
if i do this i'd rather be doing it the right way without Trojans or Spyware etc......cheers !!

i use trex miner, it to will flag up on your virus software, they say its to protect the code from reverse engineering.

profits about to take a further dump on 4th of August :(

gpu prices have now returned to normal which is a good sign the glory days are over. Far to many new gpu's now crippled when mining eth so be careful what you buy if you want to mine eth.

my 2080ti making about £100 in eth a month with about £20 quid in electricity cost, its not great but it requires no intervention. Compare that the Helium miner which made me £1000 in 30 days, cost £350 quid and uses pennies of electricity per month.

noticed my gpu temps are in the 70's even though the ambient temp is 20-22, similar to april when the gpu temp were 58-60 so ive took the card apart. The thermal paste has dryed out on the gpu and the heat sink is glogged with dust/fluff so out of mining action for a few days till i get some thermal paste :(

My old founders 1080ti had easy access to the heat sink so was easy to keep clean, the 2080ti though needs a full tear down to get to it. what a ****e design.

Keep an eye on those temps, and if you can access the heat sink with out disturbing the thermal paste and pads keep it clean.

I had pretty much similar problem with a new 3090 after 5/10 min it would drop from 120 m/s to about 70 m/s even with side case removed as soon as temp went up it throttled the card , looking online there was a lot of people with the same problem with the 3090 lots of so called fix's, i found none that worked.

i already had water cooling on the 2070 so just added it to the 3090 , temps now max sit at just over 50' on both cards .

dang 3090, did you get that a a decent price? Some manufacturers have known issues once the card is under stress. new Pads and paste normally fixes it but it will never gonna get down to water block temps.

can be down to the thermal pads to so im replacing that also

I had it at a very good Price swapped it for a power tool , tool cost me about £400 there is of course no warranty on the 3090 was a no questions asked deal , but it would probably void anyway as soon as i ripped it apart to fit water block.

Minus your £400 and you still saved about a grand.

I've never seen a fabled 3090 in the flesh - I have seen some vids on a well known video streaming stie, however my crappy laptop monitor and even my TV wouldn't do those vids any justice. Probably you'd need a 4k projector and a game that used the full power of the card to show what a beast it was. TBH I am a little envious of your deal, but good one on you for getting it.

I have been dithering about buying a new PC for some time, as mine is quite old now and not Windows 11 friendly, even though still quite a powerful computer, I have taken the plunge and have a new and more powerful one arriving tomorrow. It includes an RTX 3090 graphics card. I will probably take that out and swap it with another computer which has a 1080 Ti to use for mining. If it only gives me some extra cash to treat my grandson every christmas, I will be happy. I have read all the horror stories regarding mining taking it's toll on cards, so will be looking to under-volt it in the hope that it solves the issue.

For ETH you underclock them, apart from the memory which benifits from an over clock. Some other coins need more power to mine efficiently.

most mining software has the options. i use trex absolute core clock to get max hash rate at min power. God help us next april when the utility companies up there price cap :(

i use afterburner to set the mem over clock as you can fiddle with it without having to restart the miner software each time.

running a single card in a spare pc isnt very effective on power saving. My 2080ti happily runs in my main PC. Im not a gamer so it mines 24/7

if you have a bunch of gpus then it would then be viable to have a dedicated pc/rig just for mining.

buying cards for mining still isnt cost effective atm, everything is either over priced or the cards are LHR restricted. there are work arounds with dual mining but still not as efficient as none lhr

Same Gpu im running , hope you got plenty of cooling found it throttles very fast as soon as temps start to rise maybe i got a dodgy one , i water cooled it and sits at 50' making 118 mh/s it will go higher if you want to push it but even water cooled they it gets very hot and crashes as soon as room temps start to rise.

From what I have read, there was a problem with the early cards where poor soldering and a few other issues that I can't remember at the moment were causing overheating and even bits dropping off, so I believe.
I have had to wait almost 2 months to get this card after ordering, so hope that it is a card made after the faults were ironed out.
I believe that a bios update cures some of the issues, obviously not the poor soldering.

Fingers crossed.

I didn' buy this card just for mining, I bought a new computer system which came with this card.

This pc I'm using now , has 2 gpu's both mining 2070 super/ 3090 , 3090 in second slot so main gpu is the 2070 , they are both water cooled as well as the cpu.

Watching videos (i don't do much gaming) does drop the speed they hash at , worst i find is pokerstars .

2070 is in the top slot ,was thinking at the time it would not would restrict the mining on the 3090 but does still affect it .

hash rate drops a little while using the pc for browsing/youtube etc but returns normal once im not using it. I only shut the miner down when using photoshop/lightroom.

for the most part its ticking away earning 24/7, over the months its soon adds up. Anyone with a gpu sat idle is letting $$$ pass them by.

Evga were offering purchasers aditional thermal pads as they knew there cards had issues.

Some sites have sneaky miner code hidden in them so when your browsing they are stealing your hashing power, only in small amounts but if they do this to millions off users it will add up. Theres a chrome extension called nocoin which stops that though.

im not to bothered about taking a risk with the eth earnings its just i have a knack of timing the buy/sells wrong:iamwithstupid: Helium is still doing ok so all my eggs are in a few a baskets. Bought a small amount of Shiba just incase that explodes like Doge. worse case is its a $100 down the drain.

if it goes to say 7 cents thats about $300k at current prices if my math was correct.

There will be billions of crypto thats is lost behind forgot logins.

Helium is still doing OK, long gone are the £80 quid a day days but i average about 7 helium a week which considering there are 240k and growing miners on the network thats not to shabby. it means a lot are making next to nothing though.

Make sure you input the correct antenna power as as of the 24th they will be using this to id those scamming they system.

at £900 you will make your money back faster than ordering 1 for half that and waiting 6 months to get it :) and it will out perform any GPU you can get for that price atm.

have you looked at the resale price of gpu's today compared to a few months ago and if mining has made up that deficit?

checking on what to mine, converting the power 145w @ 61mh/s on a 2080ti @ .28 cents kwh mines $2.77 with a profit of 1.80 or £1.32. most other coins return a loss.

I stopped my mining end of feb , though great idea i will add a few didgets to my meter readings i uploaded to get at the cheaper fixed rate i was on .

And guess what i get an email to say they have reactivated my smart meters :ack2::ack2::ack2:

Pc's and heating been running last few days to get the readings up , just my luck they not been active since i left British Gas 4/5 years ago , will have to say i must have miss read if it comes of anything :D

Price of Helium miners has dropped to just above their cost , well worth anyone checking out what others are making in their area could well be worth jumping on it now , they use next to nothing in Electricity but Hnt low at the moment .

been making .5-6 for weeks until an ota update last week, now in the .2-.3 range. :( hopefully helium take up will fizzle out. Im waiting for sorins review of that cheap 10db rx 5db tx amp, might be worth the £100 asking price over the now rip off flarm.

Did you sell any GPU's?

How long did it take to make that and with what graphics card?

Approx. 6-12 months stopped when electricity price shoot up i started out with just a 2070 then added a 3090 , also had a 3070 and one other running but they where never all running from start to finish .

The 3090 was a swap for power tools so cost me nothing , always had the 2070 bought a pc with the 3070 in and sold that on for same price i bought pc , pc now handed down to my daughter .

That's all from memory and that is fading fast :D

i still got the 3090 and 2070 in the pc im using now all water cooled , bit of overkill for internet use :D

still some coins gpu minable but our lekky kills the profit. They tend to run the gpu harder compared to eth. You can rent out gpu horsepower on the likes of vast.ai but again or lekky kills profit.

If you want to make some easy crypto have a look at Natix. You run it on your phone while driving. The more congested the area the better. for hardware devices its worth looking into using a Motus mini, Hivemapper and a dimo auto pi to rake in $$$ while driving. The AutoPi only requires a few miles of driving each week ROI could take a while on that though.

Started using Natix last week , not sure what its doing or earning so for , but its free and on the road every day Tuesday is my biggest milage day so will see how that goes until the BEE arrives :D

i dont think the more miles covered earn more, its seems to rack up more points in the busy areas. a City cabbie should do well with natix. Natix payout once a month so you should beable to gauge your earnings from a few weeks usage. There using the Solana blockchain which i like. aiming for $50 a month if the coin listing price is $0.001 per token. Will probably dump 50% to SOL. Fees are tiny. Moving eth around with its fee's bugs me. Eth's seen a nice recovery the last 7 days though and with talk of an ETF imminent it could be heading to 5k.

motus mini's are cheap its the fact it earns rewards just for being plugged in with zero driving required concerns me about its value once its out of testnet. Hopefully once it hits mainnet rewards are only generated when you actually drive.

It seems to have earned the same almost most days , and from what ive worked out you get a share of the percentage you rack up at end of the month then it resets and everyone starts again i am flying up the leader board at the moment so see where i am at the end of the month.

i had just over 120k last month and ended up with 36k tokens. Did you enable the boost? it last for 10 days. When in the countryside the cam has nothing to do. I aim for the quieter less travelled roads to hoover up easy honey tokens. swings n roundabouts.

ended up in the top 100 last month but that was before they announced the token going live so i expect it will be a little harder this month. Its all about the tokens at the end of the day though so hope the pool is big enough.

yeah just stick an old phone on the dash, share a data connection and away you go, doesnt consume huge amounts of data as its not uploading images un like hivemapper which is supposed to be passive but isnt. Days are longer but rewards are deminishing. once were back to short days earnings will tanks if you spend the bulk of your day on M/A roads. As the rewards are region based so if theres some nice B roads you can use instead and make way more. Natix works way after sundown although doesnt detect as much.
