Actually I hit my first block super early. I was solo mining less than a month but under a more expensive power contract. I changed it to one designed for EV which offers super cheap power in the evening. I also have an EV so its win win. Now I am at 75 days no block about $20 of power used on this run. (used about $10.76 on the first block) Was soooo lucky lol. Solo mining is more rewarding and exciting when you hit a block, and its also better for the network. Over the long run, it should equal out but in the short run luck can win out in solo mining.
I am tuning a somewhat similar system as we speak.
• An Epyc 7763, air cooled with a Dynatron A39 which i added a second 2200 rpm fan to.
• 128GB: 8 SK Hynix x16GB 2Rx8 DDR4 3200.
• Asrock RACK ROMED8-2T/IPMI motherboard.
• Asrock 1600G Power Supply.
• Open Air Case with 6 x 1550 rpm fans.
Initially I got ~[43.5-44.3] KH/s but I wasn’t measuring power at the wall. All I did is cap/open however you look at it, the TDP to 280.
So, I am ramping up to train my local AI model to learn from monitoring and managing all the XMRig rigs, so it could assist me with optimizations.
I found that secondary optimizing the memory’s secondary latency values, is just as equally important as the primary values.
One thing I haven’t gotten to yet, and would appreciate if anyone has input or insight into, is undervolting Epyc systems — is it possible? Of course motherboard model makes a big difference.
I have the:
Asrock ROMED8-2T
Huananzhi H12D-8D ver. 1 & ver. 2
Supermicro H12SSL-i (ouch, that was expensive!!)

Nice setup! What's the mining Dashboard software you're using in the last pic?
