hey to all you cave guys and cave gals caveman mining here I hope everyone is well and having a good day on today's video we're going to catch you guys up on a few things my progress with the mining farm here in the caveman garage but before we jump into anything I just want to give a quick plug for our friends over at Egypt. co make sure you guys go visit plugin caveman 10 for your 10 off rewards these guys are awesome they have everything from this cool looking flag that you see here to coffee mugs to hoodies to t-shirts backpacks you name it they got it to help us support.
the channel by going and checking some stuff out and uh even if it's not on my brand they've got some awesome other stuff about just crypto as well affiliate link will also be in the description below so make sure you go check them out thanks guys as you guys can hear and see we have the box fan up there running blowing the air out it is springtime and the temperature is starting to rise we also have a box fan exhausting out the hot air blowing outside we get the box fan here at the window exhausting the hot and warm air outside of the garage so we get the air pushing and pulling from that side coming out here getting sucked out the window here a little bit of uh craftsmanship and ingenuity with a slice of a cardboard box here at the window, not the best.
setup in terms of you know this being clean but it is semi-functional it can get the
hot air out of the garage and that all being said outside is an ambient temperature of about 50 degrees Fahrenheit right now so inside we have about 79 degrees Fahrenheit here and it is dry I've got to still work on the humidity here but yeah I mean we've got a pretty decent setup here so we've got that eight cards uh rig between the AMD and Nvidia cards quite a mix here and then on our hanging rig we have the MSI cards and the gigabyte cards for uh 6600 xt and 6600 as well as the two RTX 4000 cards so it is getting a little bit toasty in here so we need to figure out something probably this summer once it starts getting hot to have a better exhaust system or try to work on getting the temperature lower in here and not only do I mention.

that is because of the temperature rise in the summer but we did get in now for Radeon MSI 6600 the armor edition cards so we're going to get four of those cards installed up to the farm up here and logic tells me that once we do that the temperature is definitely going to rise now the 6600s are super-efficient they're not known to run super hot so that is a positive but yes we are adding more wattage on we're adding more hash rate on more energy and naturally the temperature is going to rise so I've already got some remarks from people obviously in the past about you know don't buy graphics cards you know Ethereum mining is going to be ending soon.
the merge is coming you're crazy and most people would take that advice but myself I am number one the merge is going to happen
but it's hard to say when now there's been some recent news out there that they put a test net up for Ethereum that was I'd say 98 successful I believe it was called kiln you guys can check out the full video for that I'll try to leave a link in the description or a card up there so you guys can follow the latest updates but with all that being said I'm
still bullish on Ethereum I'm hedging or hoping the fact that there'll be more delays now June is the time frame where supposedly the merge will start and uh Ethereum mining will then, in turn, be no longer so I'm hoping that gets pushed out because these cards as of today.
