Got 2 of these yesterday. Confirm not LHR but gpu ram is crummy Hynix, can't get mem OC beyond +800 otherwise crashes reboot. Require 139w to get 58 mhs. Otherwise very good price for specs.

Best to just clean install windows ASAP. Everything works and license crosses over. Get Vetroo V5 cpu cooler is all you need.
I am new to mining but only getting 28 MH/s, what am I doing wrong? I have the same card, I am using Minerstat would that matter on the speeds I am getting?

Old dell and HP 3060 TI sell for $1300 mostly because they're Non-LHR, and the most efficient card for mining out there. The newer 3060 TI are nearly all LHR and while they're still good for mining, they're 30% worse or so than the older 3060TIs, and priced accordingly.

Woodbury MN has at least five of them. So very tempting to buy two of them but I saved them for you guys.

I bought one 2 weeks ago and replace the cooler with the vetroo 5 and move the HDD to the top cage for better airflow. The 3060ti can mine about 61-63 MH/s with Quickminer. It's also the living room space heater

Not loud at all. I have the side panel off for better cooling. I sleep on different level. It's also the room's nightlight. It's better streaming than my Shield Tv

Try to under clock gpu and overclock vram
If you are lucky with samsung vram, you cam overclock 1100😙. 1200

Under clocking gpu -500 would be great

Mu rtx2060 samaung vram can do 34MH/s and 70 watts (70% power limiter) for ether…

I used to quickhash and their octools very useful. It has oc testing and pick the best.

I am currently using t-rex andit has local web control for OC tuh. Well used phoenix miner too. But t-rex givese more Mhs 2-3 more…

Running dual gpus with 10th gen celeron😃 and 4g ram well unregistered wins10😂 on total is 66 mhs consume 140watts (gpu cards only)

I managed to get one of these from costco. How would I know if it's LHR or not? I am only interested in the desktop and not in the gpu

same here, you can do -400 +950 which can bump it up a little to ~59+

It's available on instacart for 1% more. Should I try? I'd hate to get a cancellation.
