Not sure how you worked out you'd be losing money mining - yesterday for £2 leccy I made £8 in crypto, so I'm making about £180 a month at current rates

This thread is worse than a SUN article. Total rubbish.
Ironing boards are a thing. We still use them.

Maybe my
was too subtle.
Don't think my other half would be too impressed about me sticking it on 16c!We just set it to 20 and let it do its thing, the extra £30-40/month for the 4 months or so it's on isn't going to exactly break the bank!
If you were being serious about the 12 bedrooms and dedicated sim room then £130 for both isn't bad, we're paying £115 for a 3 bed
No mate, that was a joke
, I'm in the same boat, 3 bedroom and one man cave.... but the prices on all the tariffs have just gone up, I was shocked at the difference... Just shows the difference working from home full time has bumped the readings up too, plus side is I've gone from 10K miles to 200 miles.... plus side is I can now hunt down a V8, V10 or Flat6 for a rarely used daily.
Check out all the new fixed rate energy deals, bloody "shocking"....
.... Pun....I-Ron Board ?? Is that an Apple product, I thought I had a magic wash basket
(good job my better half doesn't use the forum) This thread is hilarious, how did i miss this
I had to just check what the subject was, it's a classic...
Talk about deviate from the main subjectSurprised the mods haven't jumped in to get it back on topI had to just check what the subject was, it's a classic...
. Never seen one go on for this long about nothing relating to the original topic lol.

Winner.
F'me just been reading through all the posts.... I've just tried to swap my Gas and Electric as the fixed tariff is about to end and it's gone up from £95 to £130 a month (not sure how one guy uses only £40
I also tried some mining quite a few years back and recently did the math's to figure out if it was still worth it.
Turns out I'd be loosing £19 a month on the new electricity tariff using a 3070 and that's with all LED house lights and auto power off plugs during the night.
So finally things could be on the up, even this morning I've noticed quite a few 3090's appear on eBay with lower prices from the scalpers.
Lol
Yah, anyone thinking there are making £180 a month in the UK mining with 3070/80 etc, does not know how to carry out addition.
Slap on the hefty electricity bill and your making peanuts in my opinion.
I was going to reply to one post that posted sensationalist media rubbish, but you've summed it up succinctly and saved me the bother
Soldato
£60 a month mining with a 3070 after electricity.
Soldato
Lets see your calculations then?
£180 is a bit of a stretch at the moment, but easily doable a couple of weeks ago, how much do you think it actually costs to run a single gpu mining 24/7? (hint, its not £150).
I'd imagine the person who posted about using £2 of electric in a day isn't running a single gpu, since that would mean their unit rate is 40p!!
My costs are more like 50p/day, making about £3.50 atm, so ~£3 profit. Sure it's not a huge amount, but still almost £100 for nothing

Agreed ! where the hell do you get electric ironing boards (missus would like to know).

Hmm, while mining my system pulls 550w, so 13.2 kw in 24 hrs at 12p per kw/h = 1.58gbp a day so he wasn't that far off.
No one has noticed my other Threadripper system going full chat at Uni yet though

Very true. But you have plenty of rads running, some disk drives, not an inefficient setup by any means - do you know from a wall meter what wattage it uses at idle?
A simplistic mining setup would have a celery type cpu, some RAM and one SSD. Total wattage they pull at idle would be less than 60w probably 50w.
Is your 1080Ti and machine using 550w at the wall really?
My 3090 and full system mining (105MH/s) only uses 335w. If so it sounds like you need to drop some voltage and tweak power delivery.

Damn, that's crazy, my 6800 gaming PC pulls ~200 while mining 60MH/s
