Ask HN: Use for Idle Threadrippers?
3 points by b20000 on June 4, 2024 | hide | past | favorite | 1 comment
I built some 32 cpu / 64 thread workstations with threadripper cpus for a project which are idle since project got cancelled. I thought about using them for mining but with the cost of electricity in CA i doubt it is worth it… any ideas on how I can put them to work and get some kind of return from them?


I have a desktop with similar specifications. I used to build yoctoLinux at my company, but they didn't buy me a build pc, so I bought it with my own money and used it for my work. my efficiency has increased a lot. However, after changing jobs, I didn't have anything to use, so I'm playing now. I think I should have sold it secondhand, but I'm just using it as a personal Linux server at home.
