This photo and news article was posted a few days ago, but it’s been circulating vehemently on social media… so I thought I let you guys see it again 😡
Taken from Hardware Times … This mining farm was built by Simon Byrne in Las Vegas for a total of approximately $100K, pegging the price of an individual card at around $1,199. In terms of power draw, you’re looking at 23.4 kW of power with each card chugging around 300W.
According to estimates by TechARP, Bryne pays $2,166 a month for electricity using this system (8.43 per kWh) including the added AC costs for cooling it. One RTX 3080 has a hash rate of around 83MH/s using the Ethash algorithm, which should generate around 0.22236870 ETH or $165 each month. The entire system (78 cards) should generate a total of around 17.3 ETH or $12,840 per month. Deducting the electricity costs, he gets a monthly profit of approximately $10,674, or $128,088 per year.
