    So, I opened a thread asking for advice on powering a mining rig and it was closed by a mod because they assumed I was ""trolling"" for saying I have 19 RX 5700s?

    That's insane, so I can't ask for advice on forum cuz spending my money on GPUs will hurt people's feelings....

    Yes I have x19 RX 5700s and x8 RTX 3060ti for mining crypto, plus x2 RTX 3070s for me and my wife's PCs.

    All I had to do was google 10 minutes and found a supplier with all those cards on stock... and they will have more in 2 weeks, I don't know what's the problem here, it's my money, It's a free market, get over it.

    You can ask but we don't have to help you.

    It's a free market as you say.

    That and this is the wrong forum to ask about electrical advice.

    You got a detailed answer in your thread over in the Electrical board.

    Reinforcing stereotypes of crypto idiocy, one rant at a time.

    How much did it cost you in total for the 29 cards OP?


    What weekly return do you expect to get from the 29 cards?

    Assuming OP wasn't fibbing, it would take 5 months of 24/7 mining on all those GPUs to break even, ASSUMING the market holds.

    I am the only one, who just wanted to have Retrogamers post in this whole thread. As it just perfectly captured actual pc hardware and gamers opinion.

    It's all ruined now, but feck it, I am still proud of people here. People here help others and still have their opinions, but never go at each other thoats. We came to be united at least in on aspect.

    I'm going to have to stick up angry Forum Announcements again aren't I? 2020 is somehow sucking less than this dumpster fire of a year and its barely March :eek:
