Tent Info:
- 3'x3'x6.5' hydroponics tent (amzn.to/2I82Px7)
- Simple wire rack (amzn.to/2FqC5Y5)
- One 8' diameter inline exhaust fan that vents out my window. It moves A LOT of air, around 800 CFM. This thing will legit turn your fingers into a puff of red mist if you're not careful. (amzn.to/2KwoSvR)
- Two 6' diameter intake tubes that pull in air from outside.
Hardware Info:
- Ten RX 580s
- Six RX 570s
- Six GTX 1060s
- Total hashrate: ~590 Mh/s
I had a few questions on Reddit about my hydroponics Ethereum mining operation, so I figured I'd upload a quick video showing my setup.
Safety is important in a small enclosed space:
- All rigs have a thermal stop limit of 80 degrees C.
- The exhaust fan and network switch operate on the same breaker, so if it flips and the fan turns off the rigs stop mining.
- No SATA risers, only PCIe and non-daisychained Molex.
- All rigs have Teamviewer installed so I can remote power down.
- WiFi smart outlets so I can cut power remotely if necessary (in the event Teamviewer doesn't work)

Wow, that is super convenient that you have 2 separate windows in a corner, to be able to do a intake on one side and exhaust on the other side.

@blackryan5291 2 года назад

Your right....that did work out pretty well

@sellsair 5 лет назад

Don't know why RU-vid wants me to look at this, but you can increase your fan efficiency by shorting the tube runs and bends. I crinkle mine up and wrap it with duct tape. Not pretty, but a whole lot more efficient. BTW I keep my plants in a grow tent and my mining rig on a closed rack that both exhaust out the same window. Never thought of using another tent. Nice and clean, I love it.

@mikecentex 6 лет назад

Great Video! Thanks for the focus on multiple safety systems, all types of mining can be dangerous. Mining in hot climates is especially challenging. Curious what a laser thermometer would read on the exterior of that tent.

@samgraves2 6 лет назад

Big thumbs up. Great vid. I'm really considering something similar for the coming months. How much heat comes off the tent? Essentially, how effective is it at eliminating the heat in the room? Lastly, any reason you opted for a tent instead of just building something more rigid out of plywood?

@Silarous 6 лет назад

samgraves2 I can think of a few reasons. The tent is cheaper, quicker to install/disassemble, and looks quite a bit nicer in the room than a big, plywood box. :)

@derekremington8807 6 лет назад

Should try turning the fan on it's side, and run a tube on it and split that line into the amount of rack levels you have and do the same for the air inputs. Then could have focused air intake and exhaust per level with one fan. Maybe temps go down more?

@Cody-hx1uq 5 лет назад

Need an air intake fan so you dont burn out the fan u have. Ditch the tent build out of 3/4 inch plywood. Greatly reduce the noise

@NixonRexzile-xz4sq 4 года назад

better yet go with immersion cooling mining, no noise

@matiassevilla7107 3 года назад

Just had one question regarding the fan... I actually work from home and was looking to check how noisy the VIVOSUN 8 Inch is? Thanks!

@dave11F 6 лет назад

No worry about rain/humidity?

@dennisoleary5643 6 лет назад

Can you provide links to the mounting collars used to mount the ducts to the plywood for both the 6” and 8”? Also, are you filtering your intakes?

@GreenTechNetwork 6 лет назад

I actually picked those up at Home Depot. As of now, I am not filtering, but I plan to as the pollen gets worse.

@democratssuckcritic1030 3 года назад

do you feel a lot of heat in the summer and how is it holding up few yr's latter???

@AleksandarZRE 3 года назад

Is he HODL untill April 2021 and sold he is millionaire now :) But i doubt that.

@jackpalmer6253 5 лет назад

Wow, you're awesome. How much ethereum was this thing producing?

@willyiglesias1445 6 лет назад

with this setup, how hot was your room when the tent is closed ? im trying to setup the same in garage so my dog can sleep there and not roast. thanks!

@unconnected 6 лет назад

Did you read what the max CFM flow is for a 6-8" duct is? Particularly one with that many bends in it? Most literature says that you are going to need at least 12" ducting to move that much air.

@ronramos8582 3 года назад

Your tubes all go up, but would water entering be a problem otherwise. Would a damper help ?

@creationsdvd 3 года назад

Hey I have a question about the noise of yours mining rigs with and without the tent ?

@ystebadvonschlegel3295 3 года назад

really nice review

@hottoastx 3 года назад

hey, why do you have intake half way up? would it not be better down so air gets the chance to travel through entire tank?

@EADN20 2 года назад

Do you ever have any problems with snow or rain being sucked into the tent?

@mahdimarmouz7733 2 года назад

Nice, have exact same tent and 22 gpu too, but have 1.6 GH/s and temp is perfect! I only have fans as exaust, 1600 cfm total exaust ! Can’t be happier

@AM-lu5yw 3 года назад

THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR THE VIDEO! the 800 CFM value for the esxtractor, how many m3/h (cubic meters per hour ) is that? do you know which is the sound of the extractor in decibels? Thanks!

@onurcelikgun9364 3 года назад

@hseochin 6 лет назад

I suppose such a setup only provides a satisfactory temperature drop if operated in a cold country...this won't be too effective say in the tropics with outside ambient temperatures above 30 deg C ?

@obd2cartoolspakistan 6 лет назад

How can you set the kill GPU temperature on claymore?

@kaleymartin9674 3 года назад

How are you powering all of this? Does your breaker trip?

@noellear9752 2 года назад

590mhs is a relatively small setup for mining ethereum and with 22 cards I suspect many are quite old and low power. On my upstairs ring I am powering 13x 3080s 12x 3070s and 3x 2080ti I also have my PC mining with 2x 3090s. I have a couple of fans 110 120 watts and an extract fan 40w another one going in tomorrow. Also running a aircon unit when the heat becomes too much. The fuse tripped once randomly but other than that. Estimating my PC at around 1000w and the aircon included around 6800 watts. I hear no more than 7200w per ring so won't go further upstairs. I am currently filling up the downstairs see how we get on lol

@og3945 2 года назад

My bedroom is too warm and I plan on buying a tent. What’s exhaust fan do you recommend. Noise is a main concern

@ifitistobeitisuptome 6 лет назад

Was it really necessary to have such huge powerful fans on such a small tent?? I'm considering doing this myself but only intend to use one 6 inch fan on the intake and one on the out take! This setup just looks a little over kill for what is probably necessary? But I don't know as I haven't built mine yet, so I'm open to your suggestions. Thanks.

@GreenTechNetwork 6 лет назад

Well it definitely kept everything cool. I went with the larger fan just to ensure enough air movement to keep everything cool. I really can't say for sure if a 6 inch will move enough air, but it will likely be enough as mine is only 8 inch.

@Medicjustin 6 лет назад

Plus i would rsther have an 8 inch fan and just use a switch to adjust speed than get a 6 inch and be stuck

@nicpuia7112 2 года назад

What if the fan dies at some point? You have something automated that would shut off everything based on temperature rising? Otherwise, it means fire!

@akhenatonisis80 6 лет назад

nice indoor box :D

@MyIronman8 6 лет назад

I have gotten use too it . My doesn't bother me no more . Why is the intake on the top kind of stupid . The intake needs to be on the bottom heat rises

@graffix3001 6 лет назад

The intake clearly runs down to the bottom.

@hugoviegas7843 5 лет назад

tiking bomb

@mad_krillin4255 3 года назад

Isn't it the fan or exhaust produces 740 cfm?

@pjwill1077 2 года назад

What is sucking in cold air into the duct for the rig to get cool air? is there a fan somewhere doing that?

@og3945 2 года назад

As far as a know as long as your pumping out the hot air at a high rate.. Room temperature air being pumped in is fine. The air being pumped into the tent doesn’t need to be cold.

@media6969 3 года назад

Sucks that the intake holes are not at the bottom

@media6969 3 года назад

I would have the tubing go more towards the bottom & maybe even have the tubing loop around the bottom & cut holes / slits in the sides of the tubing to have the air spread out more as it comes out

@trungle1048 6 лет назад

no intake fan needed?

@marcusloo767 5 лет назад

how many watts can you pull out of 2 outlets at the same time

@GreenTechNetwork 5 лет назад

It depends on the type of outlet. They can generally be anywhere between 12 amps and 20 amps.

@agussuryantos 5 лет назад

with this system, how much temperature inside the tent..?

@GreenTechNetwork 5 лет назад

The temperature I would estimate is around 80 degrees F. The GPUs all run around mid 70 degrees C at 50% 60% fan.

@desertaxe 6 лет назад

what do you mine? how much per day? which miner app. do you use? which pool?

@Gfunkbus76 6 лет назад

Did you watch his video?.... Eth with Claymore 11... He did not mention the pool however.

@GreenTechNetwork 6 лет назад

I use Dwarfpool. About 0.04 ETH per day.

@desertaxe 6 лет назад

thanks

@elfllaco555 3 года назад

How are you dealing with the noise and the heat ?

@ronramos8582 3 года назад

He said sometime back that he got rid of the setup

@albertperez7930 6 лет назад

Uh, where's the water? Hydro = water :-) Nice work on the tent. Would try positioning intakes and fans differently to see what works best - IMHO Where do you live? What's the outside temp? Where I live - you'd be pulling in 85 deg. air and 85% humidity (at night! LOL)

@rsheltonib 6 лет назад

85F isn't even 30C...

@albertperez7930 6 лет назад

Ryan Shelton I'm talking about ambient temperature outside (at night). Would be 90s during day (and humid). Venting doesn't seem like it would be effective in South Fl.. I dunno?

@rsheltonib 6 лет назад

I'm from FL and I don't really see an outside temperature of say, 35C being an issue. Since the GPU's can push 75C, the ambient temperature inside the grow tent is much higher than the temperature outside of the building. The laws of thermodynamics tells us that the heat - channeled through an industrial fan and hosing - will quite readily dissipate into an environment with a much greater area and a vastly lower temperature. It may feel hot at 90F, but that's only in the mid 30's in Celsius. It also helps that he keeps it in a room with AC and the vent flap open to allow for more passive heat dissipation.

@albertperez7930 6 лет назад

Ryan Shelton you bring up another question I have: if you vent and run AC at the same time - aren't you blowing the cold air outside? Not to mention - the AC needs an equal amount of return air to work correctly.. I've also heard the cold air needs to stick around to transfer the heat (eg. a massive fan will just make the cold air rush by too fast and not transfer the heat??)

@rsheltonib 6 лет назад

The intake for the blower is at the top of the tent, though. Since the rigs are within a confined space - the grow tent - the blower should also help create a positive pressure differential. Notice how the rectangular "vent" flap is at the bottom of the tent? This allows the AC cooled air in the room to enter from the bottom and pick up heat on its way up and out. I highly doubt the velocity of the air flowing in would have an impact because the flow is continuous. The rigs are, therefore, always in contact with 'cooler' air, right? However, the most thing is to get that hot air up and out. It might be a good idea to have two intakes - one high, one medium-low - so the top cards aren't getting baked by all the ones underneath.

@xdjnoclux 4 года назад

Didnt work for me :( it was still hot in the tent

@laurenparkerva 6 лет назад

What temps do your gpu’s run?

@GreenTechNetwork 6 лет назад

The target temps were set to around 72 to 74 depending on the GPU, they had no problem keeping that temperature.

@laurenparkerva 6 лет назад

GreenTechNetwork I Literally have a 5 ton AC unit in a 10x10 room cooling 6 rigs. The AC runs non stop and my calls all run around 79 degrees.

@trappedcat3615 6 лет назад

You could get lower temps if you undervolt the cards -50%

@laurenparkerva 6 лет назад

Red Bear does it reduce the hash rate?

@trappedcat3615 6 лет назад

No, but proceed with caution -- undervolting too much can cause stability issues. Definitely research per the card. Here's discussion on the subject: bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=422773.0 I use Sapphire Trixx for AMD, but it is tricky if you're using the blockchain driver -- which is a must in my opinion. You need to reset and then set the undervolt percentages each time you power up your rig. And since Trixx core and mem clock does not work on the blockchain driver, you can have all that saved in Afterburner settings. That's just what I 'm doing though. On an 8 card rig, I use about 20 watts less per card (180 total) and each card is roughly 5 degress celsius cooler.

@pwer2dppl 6 лет назад

There is no way that you can sleep in this room :)

@adamgustafson5475 6 лет назад

Actually it's not bad ... I've done something similar. The key is to use insulated ducting (which he isn't using here), and the fans become pretty close to silent.

@GreenTechNetwork 6 лет назад

Yeah it was honestly so bad, I had to get rid of the setup. It was too noisy and I was losing sleep due to it.

@ExitoxminutoBlog 6 лет назад

GreenTechNetwork thanks for sharing. What does it look like now

@GreenTechNetwork 6 лет назад

I downsized and sold two of the AMD rigs because I just couldn't keep them cool in my apartment. So now it's just the four RX580/480s in my desktop and six GTX 1060s.

@kokoronai594 6 лет назад

Noise helps me sleep.

@makemoney6866 6 лет назад

Why don’t you use sata cables?

@makemoney6866 6 лет назад

I’m sorry sata risers?

@GreenTechNetwork 6 лет назад

SATA to PCIe 6 pin adapters are notorious for catching fire. SATA is rated for around 30 watts or so, but most GPUs can pull up to around 75 watts from the PCIe slot. This means you're running at over twice the rated wattage a SATA connection can handle. It is much safer to use direct PCIe 6 pin cables from the PSU to the risers.

@lauretiu 3 года назад

and if you mined until now you probably have a house and a limbo now :))

@gregfoster6916 6 лет назад

What’s is the wattage

@GreenTechNetwork 6 лет назад

The fan was about 150 watts. If you're asking about the rigs, I'm not sure on the exact value, but I'd estimate around 2400 watts.

@gregfoster6916 6 лет назад

GreenTechNetwork thanks man. I’m just doing research on this and trying to decide if it is profitable. There are some many contradictory reports out there on the subject. Do you feel GPU mining is more advantageous than a Antminer machine? Any honest suggestions are greatly appreciated!

@GreenTechNetwork 6 лет назад

Sure no prob! With GPU mining, you get to have actual computer hardware in the event crypto crashes. That's the main positive in my opinion.
