Which mini PC would you recommend for building a lottery miner? I already mine on my PC, but I have to shut it down from time to time when it gets annoying.
17:30:12
pcre:
800 USD
17:30:15
pcre:
max
17:32:42
ravfx:xmr.mx:
Miniforum that come with a ryzen.
17:32:42
ravfx:xmr.mx:
Not sure the price, but the main issue is the ram, do they even have good binned sodimm? And can you even set timing on theses mini pc?
17:34:12

https://xcancel.com/nikzh/status/1996993993960308969?s=46 i used to think that the average Monero holder was smarter the the average XRP holder, i might be wrong
17:35:31
pcre:
I have 2 x 8 GB DDR5-4800 SODIMM memory CL40
17:37:24
pcre:
I have no idea whether you can adjust the timing. Don't they have something like a BIOS?
17:37:46
ravfx:xmr.mx:
@pcre: Normal PC that come in parts, yes
17:37:46
ravfx:xmr.mx:
Others, usually no
17:38:37
pcre:
Isn't that set automatically nowadays?
17:38:57
ravfx:xmr.mx:
ideally you would like to add heatsink to your ram, increase the voltage and lower your timing to cl24. You should get a huge mining performance gain compared to slow boat JEDEC specced timing
17:39:17
ravfx:xmr.mx:
@pcre: Yeah, you get automatic JEDEC timing
17:39:32
ravfx:xmr.mx:
cl40 at 4800 is jedec
17:39:42
pcre:
ahh
17:40:45
ravfx:xmr.mx:
It will work, it just that you are leaving a lot on the table
17:40:51
pcre:
For a heatsink, I would have to remove the case, most likely
17:41:04
ravfx:xmr.mx:
ideally you want 10ns for CAS (and other good timing)
17:41:36
ravfx:xmr.mx:
@pcre: yeah, maybe, I have no idea how there made. And sodimm usually have one of there face right on the board too so that might not work
17:43:19
pcre:
Normally, the memory slots are also stacked on top of each other, making it difficult to cool one of them properly. This is due to space constraints.
17:44:11
ravfx:xmr.mx:
Yeah, well, you might have to use JEDEC timing
17:45:34
ravfx:xmr.mx:
Your going to lose maybe 30+% compared to proper memory timing (of what your CPU could do if it where not to wait after the memory constantly).

ravfx minisforum have a proprietary mb and bios
18:04:19

I did not see a way of adjusting the memory
18:04:24
nioc:
Or cpu
18:06:19
pcre:
https://shorturl.at/504E2 I'm still considering using this as a miner. I'll have to ask the seller if 2 x 32 GB or 1 x 64GB.
18:07:43
pcre:
If I sell the graphics card for 250 USD and put in a cheap one, then the price would be okay.
18:10:00
pcre:
But 24 kg weight. jesus.
18:14:56
ravfx:xmr.mx:
At that point why not getting a custom build in a small case?
18:14:57
ravfx:xmr.mx:
CPU is good but I expect it have again really loose ram timing (and that you can't change that because Lenovo)
18:15:20
ravfx:xmr.mx:
Can't see the price, if the price is really good then it might be worth it

Randomxbenchmark shows 60.000 kH/s but it is 2 CPU's https://xmrig.com/benchmark?cpu=AMD+Ryzen+Threadripper+PRO+3975WX+32-Cores
18:19:23
ravfx:xmr.mx:
The question would be, can it even beat a Ryzen 3950X.
18:19:23
ravfx:xmr.mx:
It have like twice more core but it's going to run at JEDEC.
18:19:23
ravfx:xmr.mx:
That would be a question for #monero-mining
18:19:36
ravfx:xmr.mx:
@pcre: Ram matter, A LOT
18:19:56
ravfx:xmr.mx:
you can have Threadripper on board that allow you to do what you want
18:20:08
ravfx:xmr.mx:
you can have Threadripper on board that have 3 options in the BIOS too
18:20:32
ravfx:xmr.mx:
Expect locked down BIOS on Lenovo so expect no proper memory timing
18:21:01
pcre:
fair enough. it is a gamble.
18:21:05
ravfx:xmr.mx:
You could think about just getting a second hand board for that threadripper (like from Asrock or Asus)
18:21:10
pcre:
wont risk it then
18:21:25
ravfx:xmr.mx:
BUT it's a Threadripper PRO from Lenovo so, the CPU might be locked to the lenovo motherboard
18:21:47
ravfx:xmr.mx:
(Ryzen* PRO cpu have the option to be locked to a specific board and so said CPU won't boot if you transplant it)
18:22:10
pcre:
to much risk
18:27:48
ravfx:xmr.mx:
At that level of prices, you can get a mini itx case and motherboard, and get a good CPU to match it (Be sure that the motherboard can power it properly if you take a *950X)
18:27:48
ravfx:xmr.mx:
Then you get matching memory with good timing for that platform (DDR4 3200 CL16 / DDR5 6400 CL32).. To know the CL you want, simply remove the two "00" at the end of the ram speed and divide the number by two (6400 -> 64 -> 32 -> CL32). Be sur to obtain ram that specify AMD or EXPO in the spec.
18:27:48
ravfx:xmr.mx:
If you plan to also overclock the memory to try to get more hashrate, for DDR4 you want Samsung B-die memory chips, For DDR5 you want SK Hynix A or M-die memory chips.
19:46:18
pcre:
https://shorturl.at/YX45G Just found this Anntminer for XMR.
19:46:57
pcre:
212 kHash/s
19:48:32
ravfx:xmr.mx:
@pcre: According to Space Guide in the mining channel : They all endup breaking down
19:48:49
ravfx:xmr.mx:
it have like 3 CPU boards (with many CPU on each) and one of the board always endup dying
19:49:06
ravfx:xmr.mx:
So be careful if you get one of these (for the price it's very good hashrate)
19:49:23
ravfx:xmr.mx:
But it's also less efficient than Ryzen (It use more juice per hash)

hmrf. looks like my data.mdb got phucked. never really seen this before. zfs lists it with data errors on a 3-way mirror. odd. running a scrub now to see. but if that doesn't gix it. what to do? delete it to resync?
20:45:51

*fix it

zfs snapshots?

that would have been great... and yes. from 2021-06. gonna check after the scrub what's in that.
