I'd love to dedicate half of my garage to a project like that and then another half of my years annual salary to the goodies

It's sure incredible!
For comparison, today his output was about 25% of TPU's entire WCG team's output! ![]() I applaud what he is doing, some day I wish to be able to DC on a scale like this.

This is the kind of thing I'd do if I had access to unlimited capital. Except, it would be a whole rented house full, and they'd all be 980x's.
![]() Pretty awesome though. |

![]() EDIT @ SV: He said that each hex-core setup is around 200w, so maybe 2.5kw for all, which is not quite $5 a day at our electric rates

I just can't imagine spending this much money
![]() I can see spending enough to get a consistent ~25k like Mind, but I can't imagine paying as much as 75-100k PPD must cost.

I'm not sure TBH. It very well could be, but the PSUs and HDDs he's using can't be more than $75 per system (combined)

That's the spirit
![]() What I've learned is not to overshoot myself, I went overboard w/ getting more GPUs for FAH earlier this year and the result was that I got banned from DC for a couple months....slow and steady does it

400w+ heat output when it's 100F outside = pissed parents. But now I can justify the 400w heat load, it's getting cold overnight

Yeah...I have that vid on my phone
![]() But, I guess 2.5kw isn't too much, IIRC that's what Buck's farm was at one point, and I've seen other members of different DC teams with multi-KW FAH/WCG farms
