Is there a way to move the Mist wallet to a second hard drive without losing anything? Right now, its installed on my C drive (250GB ssd) and since I haven't synced it in many months, I no longer have enough room on the C drive.
Anyone have experience mining with multi-PSUs? I've got two in my existing setup, (one powering system + 2 cards, one powering 3 cards), and the 3-card one turned off last night locking up the system. I'm thinking it might be related to the power-on board addon I got (links a power molex from PSU1 to PSU2's 'motherboard' power cable to turn both on at once), but not 100%. If it happens again, I was just going to use the paperclip method to leave it on all the time and see if that fixes it. Thoughts?
For the record, 5x 1080TI's humming along like a champ.
Yeah, that's the doodad I've got. Just seemed strange that the rig locked up (saw mining drop off via nicehash) and when I went to check it out, the internals were fine but the external cards were all powered off. If it happens again I'll yank the psu board and paperclip it to see if I can narrow it down.I used to have a few rigs with 2 PSUs, I used add2psu boards. Paperclip also works fine.

As a side note, how many rigs? Did you have to expand electrics in your place to accommodate or are they just spread out among the circuits?
I actually used the delayed off dongles to cool down the cards on a shutdown. Just turning off the fans and having the equipment heat buildup is horrible for the gear. Also you probably already do, but use powered risers. Those shutdowns can happen if you overload your motherboard, if it doesn't fry.
I was spread out amongst the circuits + I had quite a few unused slots in my electrical box which were put to good use. I had at most just under half a dozen rigs running 4 to 5 cards. I preferred running self contained 4-5 gpu rigs on one 1300w single rail psu, but also had dual 650/750w rigs when the 1300w PSUs were out of stock.

But must be much cheaper. The gaming card can be sold once mining stops being profitable or a better cards comes along. This mining card will go to the trash then. So assuming that I can sell an RX570 for $80 1 year later said mining card should be as much cheaper at least.

In the end this is just to prevent massive flooding on ebay and so forth limiting sales for NV and AMD further down the line.
I recently picked up a 1060 on sale for $150 at Microcenter. Stock speed is about 18.5Mh/s, and you cannot mod the BIOS. But a few clicks in afterburner lets you push 22-23 Mh/s for about 90W. Seems like a good alternative with the shortage of RX cards. Mining something is better than mining nothing. I ended up picking all 24 cards they had left in stock.
540Mh/s. About $100 of profit per day. 36 days to break even. Those 1060 miner edition cards better be really cheap to compete with that.

Wow, nice find. Even for a 3GB one, that's a steal of a price.I recently picked up a 1060 on sale for $150 at Microcenter. Stock speed is about 18.5Mh/s, and you cannot mod the BIOS.

I'll triple check 'em but they should be good. It's been running fine for about 36 hours now so I'm hoping the crash was a glitch. I had issues with it crashing more often when I had the bios set to PCIE 1.0 (was testing, trying to resolve a separate issue) but since setting them all back to 3.0 they've been fine.check your pci-e connectors into the pwr supply. I had this same problem and couldn't figure it out for the longest time. I switched out power supplies and it hummed along fine afterwards. I couple months later i was removing cables from one of the pwr supplies and noticed that one of the cables wouldn't disconnect from the psu. turns out that the connector was melted internal (i.e. bad connection over time and either the gnd or the 12v was drawing/sourcing to much current).
How much would 570 or 580 cards get?
