If you'd paid for all the power at the rate the $60 segment was, what would it have cost then?
You have the PCIe card? The [$200] reTerminal has a PCIe slot. I wonder if they would work together. If you follow Major Hardware on Youtube ( www.youtube.com/c/MajorHardware), you could take one of his winning designs and then undervolt a few of them. |
Yes, Nvidia P100. It wasn't clear to me that it had no fans. Also not sure if it can run in a normal tower workstation given the vague error I was getting about insufficient resources. These cards are finicky. There was a server that would detect the card but wouldn't enable it. Turns out it wanted a power connector from a specific spot from the server, and not an identical looking one that it was plugged into. The difficulty in figuring out that mystery is how I ended up with this "extra".
The server runs 500 watts when mining, and 250 watts at idle. If I didn't have excess solar generation, it would cost me $440 per year in electricity. That's nearly half of my "profit".
Maybe I'm trying to kill to many stones with 1 bird by combining a surveillance PVR, gaming rig, media server, and crypto miner all in one.
