    PCIE 1 to 4 Port Riser Card

    Posted: 29 Dec 2018 10:33 PM PST

    Are these cards any good or is there a better recommended card? I realize a motherboard with the appropriate ports is ideal, I'm just trying to cut losses at all possible. Or if there is a cheap option of Mobo/ram/cpu that offers 4 pcie ports.

    GA-B250-FinTech VGA red light and BIOS is skipped

    Posted: 29 Dec 2018 01:25 PM PST

    Essentially, I have 2 questions for this MB(motherboard):

    1. How can I reach BIOS screen? The monitor lit up only when ubuntu login window appears.
    2. why the VGA LED light is always on while the monitor connecting to the GPU (rx580) light up successfully after ubuntu login window arrived?

    =========== . long story =================

    By the first time using this MB (motherboard), Bios screen was reached and settings were done by me.

    Then I installed ubuntu18 headless and added multiple GPUs with PCI-risers.

    At some point (I dont know when and why), the VGA LED was always on (never go away) after each time the machine booting up. But I didn't pay much attention as the system can boot into ubuntu successfully. I thought it was because of the riser-way made the system false detecting GPUs.

    Today I tried to reinstall ubuntu and realized that I cannot reach BIOS screen, my monitor always goes straight to ubuntu login window. I did the troubleshooting below:

    1. I removed all GPUs and risers, insert directly one GPU into MB without riser. The same issue remains.
    2. the VGA LED light in MB is always on after the machine turning on.
    3. If I do not touch keyboard, the monitor will lit up once the machine reaches the ubuntu login window.
    4. If I hit F2, DEC, F12 in keyboard before machine enters ubuntu login window, the monitor will not lit up at all. I suspect machine enters BIOS stage while monitor cannot detect.
    5. If I plugin a ubuntu install media USB, monitor won't lit up.
    6. If I unplug the ubuntu SSD disk, monitor won't lit up.
    7. If I remove the BIOS battery from MB, machine will auto-reboot 2-3 times, but afterwards all symptoms above remains (This is the weirdest thing. MB doesn't go back to factory settings!!!????)

    Repeat my questions:

    1. How can I reach BIOS screen? The monitor lit up only when ubuntu login window appears.
    2. why the VGA LED light is always on while the monitor connecting to the GPU (rx580) light up successfully after ubuntu login window arrived?

    Who else is mining with xmr stak and decided to try RYO currency ?

    Posted: 29 Dec 2018 06:08 PM PST

    I'm sure you guys have seen the new updated xmr stak

    I updated recently and decided to try mining RYO for a bit looks interesting.

    It has a solid dev team after all that have a lot of knowledge and rep in the game.

    Especially with miners who have used their stuff.

    Also looks like alot the CN coins who want GPU mining only including monero are going to start using Ryos algo or a variant of it.

    So what's a few days etc of hash pointed at a promising coin ?

    Cloud mining from BitMain?

    Posted: 29 Dec 2018 09:52 AM PST

    Alright so I'm gonna start this off by saying I have always been skeptical about any form of cloud mining because it's honestly just a sketchy deal no matter how you look at it. With that I'd like to talk about my experience with bitmain's cloud mining.

    So they had a sale to launch their new cloud mining and like I previously mentioned, I was heavily skeptical. I figured "hey for $24 I can at least give it a shot and see what happens." And that's exactly what I've been doing. Only a couple days in but it's hitting the stats from the mining calculators like CoinWarz. There's a few slight deviations such as the cloud rig (I went with 10 GHs for 60) will spike from 10-18 with the occasional 8 GHs dips. So far it's earning pretty steadily although the UI reveals little info until you get in to the actual mining server website. So far it's been successful and by no means do I think it'll work out in the end, but if it does? Dope.

    With that being said IF you want to try it out I can give a slight recommendation just because it's a mostly trusted company that only knows ASICs. I saw a few plans with 60GHs for not too expensive costs, especially if you're already investing in mining hardware.

    By no means is this a referral post, but something I just found that works for me, without spending thousands on hardware and power costs.

    Lastly, their is a maintenance fee that's similar to the base cost. With the $12 sale price for the 10 GHs plan there's matching $12 maintenance fee. For my plan it says it'll have to reup the maintenance fee in 10 days so I'm not entirely sure it evens out at all but we'll see

    Edit: Added specifics to the pricing and better info for the plan I chose.

    edit 2: removed referral link to stay purely objective. My bad guys :(
