Red Panda I can't thank you enough. I just built my first rig a few days before Halloween and if it wasn't for your videos I would've been way too nervous to do half of this stuff. You have such a great way of getting straight to the point and I love the emphasis on safety. So many youtubers are manipulating code to get an extra half a MH/s but you're explaining the stuff that helps me sleep better at night. Thank you. Also the rig I built is three 3070 LHRs, running at 398W and getting about 125 MH/s on NBMiner 39.7 if anyone was curious. Mining on Ethash.

I upgraded to 240v 30amp service in my attic, and built a custom mining room. I have two circuits available that are wired into a separate outside panel, upgraded the inside panel and total home service to 200amp as well, and replaced the original aluminum main service line with copper. It cost me over $7k but was sooo worth it, that figure includes repairing some damage to the mast and main service meter box as well, so it’s not all the upgrade cost, but it was still so worth it. Now I have all my rigs in one well ventilated room, away from the main living area, and it is nice not having computers and fans going in every room of the house! That’s how I did it before, so I didn’t overload the 110 circuits as you alluded to in your video. I wholeheartedly recommend upgrading and spending the money, unless you just have one or two rigs, because the upgrade will pay for itself many times over as well as improve your overall mining experience. PDUs > cheap power strips 🤝 btw I have 22 GPUs, all 6000series amd or 1660-30 series NVIDIA. I’m having the time of my life! So glad I found mining and channels like yours red panda! Thank you!

good information, you need to be mindful of the insulation also. thicker insulation is good to have especially with dc voltage. the more strands the better (larger gauge) , since the voltage travels around the outside of the copper strand. i know flir cameras aren't in most individual's tool case they can help identify hot spots to find potential problems.

Good advice on not over heating wires. Here is how to work it out with whatever voltage your country has... (120/220) take the amount of Amps the breaker is rated for, multiply it by 0.707, that is the max amount of amps you can draw without tripping the circuit. The country has a standard so house wiring should be ok. (30amp breaker x 0.707, the root mean square is roughly 23 amps max). Pray you have the correct guage/awg wires rated for the breaker. Older houses don't, or have sub standard wiring. For computers psu's it depends on steal, copper,aluminum, threaded or solid cable design but the math still holds if a psu driving all pc components is rated at 500W at 120V the max it can do is 4Amps. Which is probably ok, until you connect multiple gpu's. That is when the fires start. Make sure you buy decent cables.

True A lot of scams left and right with the cables. I've tried to get a quote from Molex for premade pcie assemblies and they don't do 6+2 header whatsoever lol. You can find out if cable has advertised core just by using a weight scale and some spreadsheet that will calculate what it should be based on selected type of cable and leght, that will be based on precisely measured weight of 16/18AWG wire per unit of lenght and how much per connector with contacts(thumbs up if you want me to make one). I compared selfmade 16AWG cable with scam 24AWG "18AWG" cable and there was like 15 grams of difference so kitchen scale is more than accurate enough. Regarding fires from using SATA on risers, if main power cables are lacking then excessive return current path may take route thru riser and carry easily 2x more what it should at most and GPU won't trip on it because it measures only input current not output(return).

Missed the most important safety tip....amp your plug going into the wall a fraction above what you pull. That way if you have a power spike it blows the fuse. Best way is to use an adapter to measure your wattage and check what amps are being pulled then swap out the fuse for one as close as possible no point having a 12amp fuse if pulling 4.3amp. That way provided all your cabling and psu side is ok it's nearly impossible to draw more than you need. Many a fire would have been prevented if people did that. For me having the HP PSU and break out boards with individual 6pin to 8pins cables (16 gauge) going to each riser and card is the safest. I then keep it less than 80% of psu power and amp accordingly on each plug.

So what i'm thinking best doing is getting an older AMD EPYC motherboard (1 gen or 2. gen) with an older epyc cpu. Because server boards are made to handle more gpus and more pcie devices! and the newer epyc cpus even have 128PCIE lanes!

No offense to anyone, but there is a lot of horror-shows in terms of electricity on mining rigs. Some have bad wiring, cheap connectors etc.. Although the rig itself is pretty nice, but the nicer setup you are using the more careful you have to be to make sure you don't exeed the amp/w on that circuit. To make a 3 year old understand; 15 Amps circuit can pull 1800 watts (120v) or 3300 watts (220v). 16 Amps circuit can pull 1920 watts (120v) or 3520 watts (220v). Never reach the limit as this works same way as ur GPU in terms on damage. Reaching the watt limit in your circuit while running your rig can overheat the circuit, or even the weakest link in your rig.

NOTE: If you have a brand new Tesla Car, would you use cheap chargers you bought from ebay on it ? ;)

I definitely spent too much time listening to slipknot (especialy The Heretic Anthem) because at 13:30 (to sum up) you sayed if you're 12 12 12 then I'm 6 6 6 . (btw it made me laugh). It's nice to see your sore throat get better. Have fun !

yea, taking down 6 cards when one of them goes bad is better than having to take down 12 of them for one problem card. Better isolation of the issue as well. thanks.

Great information! really hope those adapters work, it will be epic when the 24 card rig works! There has to be a way!

Get a watt meter, but do not use them for too long. Those are also a fire hazard.

I measure the current from the breaker using current clamp meters.

Nothing wrong with aluminum wire. In fact, it’s highly likely the wires feeding you 200 amp are aluminum into your main panel. It just has different thermal expansion characteristics than copper. And older aluminum alloys tend to oxidize when exposed to air, so the ends attached to lugs or breakers were supposed to have a dielectric grease to keep air away from them. It is a problem with too much watts through too high gauge wire, either aluminum or copper. Aluminum you typically just go one or two gauge more than copper, and for long runs, ends up being a lot cheaper and just as safe. Always check with electrician though.

Those sata to pcie adapters are going to burn down farms with cards like the a2000.

Sata cables are perfectly fine aslong as you don't exceed 150watt on your gpu.
