A Safety Reminder for Mining Activity

[FlatBlack]

As a new-comer in this crypto-mining things, another chapter had already been facing… :blush::relaxed: :relieved:

fire n burned…

All d rig is in good condition…! (only 1 card not survive due to so close wit d sofa when its burned):disappointed_relieved:
Strongly stressed d fact…, mining rig is not d cause of effect…!

It happen becoz of d ‘yellow-season’ extension-plug used for TV+SoundSystem+Subwoffer…

.
.
Dunno what was exactly happened actolly…nobody at home when it happened…
.
.
All in All… safe mining friend… :sob: :sob:
.
.
.
p/s - feel free to share any experience if have any before espicially fellow ‘seniors’ @ ‘early miner people’

[wrapper]

We all had stuff blow up, but that looks serious, glad you’re OK…

[FlatBlack]

@wrapper ‘senior’, should I ‘rest’ for a while, doing d rig-renting or slowly build d new setup…? missing d ‘mining-racing’ feelin…:neckbeard:
.
.
p/s - already started back with d faucets… :runner: :running: :dash:

Such death :(

‘Death-rigger’…:skull::fire: :fire:
.
no-life harm… :innocent: Thank you God…:pray::innocent: :neutral_face: :neutral_face:
.
furthermore, d other ‘101 crypto-mining-fundamental’ lesson dat get onto me this time is…, always need to check equally (not only on d mining rig) but also on every other electrical-connection dat related with…:rage: :sunglasses:
.
and, before d config things, d tweaking/overclocking things, d profit-hunting things n before d miner-devs-performance bashing & complaint things… plezzz, ther re far more important things/steps dat need to be done… more or less it will or it was helping to prevent this ‘fire-burning-xploding’ things from happen/happening…:wink::ok_hand: :thumbsup: :+1:
.
dat rig on d pic above (4x Sapphire R9 280x Dual X + Corsair 850w Gold), is a new n fresh setup due to ‘FTC-birthday’ last time (1 FTC = 0.000125 BTC)
:relieved: :relieved: :relieved:
*a very very big thank you to d senior-person here dat shouted at me about d ‘birth-day’ thing…:astonished: :open_mouth:
.
.
but, wat else can say here…its happened already…
seriously, d feelin is very very :disappointed: :cry: :cry: rit now…
:o)
plezzz, do spreading about this mining-safety things…
Lets us doing d safe-mining n Njoy… ;o)
.
.
*All in All, hey FTC… there ‘you’ re…!!!
Suddenly, a ‘Wiki’ had putting u back-on for ‘display’ again…Top Notch…!
Suddenly, a same ip@id@trademark dat always ‘shitting’ about u, also had been among d miners at d FTC-Mining-Pool…!!! Nice…!
Suddenly, 1.8 Mh/s rig capability can only got 45-65 per day (due to ‘bull’-mining diff) hahahaha… Nice…!!!
.
*personally…
FTC looks like ‘gone…but its not forgotten’…
FTC will ‘Keep-On Wrockin In d Free World’…
.
.
Sighhhhh…! Feelin a bit relief…
Thanx for Everythin…Soori for Everythin…

p/s - if finding dis post is ‘retarded’, admin…plez do ‘filter’/delete it - big soori if finding dis post had threated some ‘individual/entities’,
it just a typing due to stress-releasing… ;3) -soundtrack: Pearl Jam=In My Tree

Wow, glad everyone is ok!

I did have one GPU catch on fire once but luckily I was standing right next to it when it did. I had a few others burn out components on the boards and leave a nice quarter sized black mark but the flame must have extinguished its self.

Thanx for sharing n thanx also due to stock-setting tips/advice/discussion for mining last time, bro…:relaxed:
.
Now i know why most people of d ‘earlier-batch’ of crypto mining community, choose to stay at stock setting for mining-rig… its giv a great result for a long-term running…:thumbsup:
.
kindly askin an opinion @AmDD senior, wat should i do next ehh…?
-‘rest’ for a while from crypto-mining activity…?
-doing d rig-rental…?
-keep moving foward wit new build/setup…?
:confused:

[RIPPEDDRAGON]

This is why I moved away from open rigs and exposed GPUs and the space savings of a 6x 4u GPU rack are awesome.

:confused:

You have to decide that for yourself. Ive been considering building more rigs once the new AMD GPU comes out but I have not decided for sure yet.
This is all a gamble and the best advice I can give is only gamble with money you can afford to lose.
