I just checked the prices. Wow, that is insanely cheap. And so many available. The BC-250 are also super cool one, could be retrofired into some hosting.
yep, apparently "W3B Cloud" took a huge "L" on lots of equipment which PCSP scooped up. All the Octominers and BC-250 rigs are from same liquidation. And yes, each card in the BC-250 rigs could act as its own server, multipurpose for sure.
yeah they got you to!! fkn cases are so short cant fit any 3000 series in those....... i moved fans to the outside and put 40 series in.. these arent really x 12s dude its the x8 case with the x12 motherboard...
Real easy to move the fans to the outside of the case. You will need to have all GPUs out so you can screw from interior side. Simplest method for exterior fan wiring is to pull the SSD out and let it hang so you can route the wires through there from the Octo control panel. Not the cleanest but works. Otherwise, I recommend drilling a hole through the case for cleaner look.
Yeah, these are "mini" X12 :(. It won't work for all the biggest cards but you should be able to get most to fit if you mount the fans to the exterior of the case rather than the default interior. Will gain you about 30mm in clearance.
@@motorcityminer nice lmk ill wait for the 10 percent one..my whole 140 gpu mainly 3070 farms been off but im adicted to mining so ima buy 5 with the 60 gpus for shits n giggles ahaa
@@motorcityminer THANK U SO MUCH BUT IM BEING CHEAP CAUSE MY WHOLE FARMS OFF JUST FIGURED AT 10 PERCENT OFF MY ADDICTION WAS TELLING ME I NEEDED MORE GPUS AND CASES AHAHA
paying $800 for a metal box is crazy.. lmfao its literally just a metal box with a motherboard... probly costed 20 cents to make the box.. and $20 for the motherboard.. man you people getting the shaft.. and i think its funny af
who paid $800? I paid $360 each w/ 12 GPUs included in each and 3 750w PSUs. Once I resell the GPUs, I will have paid less than $200 a unit. Good luck making a good 12 card rig for under $200 bucks 🤷♂️
@@motorcityminer well what if someone will pay everyone to get smarter then become better if this doesnt work i should buy a gun and isolate myself for the upcoming new tech i will make
Very awesome deal!! I was also surprised how mine were super clean,like never used.
Right?! Crazy, just wish they weren't 2 slot gpu only or would have bought more. Beggars can't be choosers I guess lol
I picked up 2 and I like them. I will be upgrading the processor though because the 2 core cpu they come with doesn't keep up very good.
I'm thinking of upgrading the RAM at least. barely enough to function and LA is through the roof lol
The ram is low power ddr3. Finding a processor that works with that socket ram isn’t the easiest
Yeah, will be sure to post what I find that works. My RAM keeps slowly creeping up to 100% usage and will force a LA restart in the Octo BIOS
@@iotapi322 I picked up a I5 6500 and it is working good. No more LA on the octominer.

I looked at that deal, but for me to ship the GPU's i'd be breaking even at cost lol.
are they loud? im considering getting one but concerned that the 750w psus are loud, and the case fans are also loud, thoughts?
these aren't as loud as an ASIC, but definitely not quiet. Wouldn't want in a room you plan on sitting in.

yeah, I would have bought more but only have so many 2 slot gpus these days.
How hard was the fan moving? How did you route the fan wires?

Wry cool, I bought 5 myself. You have much more octominer knowledge than I do. These cases will not fit full length cards.

Are you using the RX470's that came with it? They are barely worth using anymore.
nope, just turning around and selling them.
What are you mining/ using to mine on these rigs?
Depends on GPU but anything from Kawpow on AMD, Xelis, Flux, Multiple Spec mines, etc.
Can you guys provide the specs on size. Will it fit into a server rack horizonal ?
Also the coupon didn't work.
Sorry, will see if I can get a new one.
Considerably wider than a standard server rack. I'll have to measure some time but believe they are around 28" wide.
Im going to treat mine like an x6 ultra... Still about as cheap as open air rig
Not a bad idea. could fit 6 "4" slot GPUs no problem. 4090s ftw lol
there goes all the 5090's bad enough they will be over $2000 msrp if mining takes off again they will be $4 grand
GPUs have been plentiful and cheap for some time now. Can only blame yourself if you don't take advantage and wait 🤷♂️
do they ship the cards seperately
they were selling the GPUs separately but looks like they have removed the listing. You could always call to see if they will do a custom order
ur discount code didnt work
Yeah, it expired. Waiting to hear if they will give me a new 10% discount code. This one for 5% should work though: 9F5F-66D0-3D2A

I have 140 gpus off rn and like 10 asics
Link says gpus not included
there are 2 listings, one for $299 w/o GPUs, one for $399 w/ GPUs, pcserverandparts.com/crypto-mining-gear/

Gross, I thought this foolish waste of resources had ended with pos etherium, but I guess not. 🤨
