I'm sure of the fan speeds. It's a Intel P4000M chassis. 4U pedastal / rack unit with 2x120mm fans. Pretty quiet. see the second pic for IPMI readings
Is the 92% of good results normal with stak? I've not seen this behavior with STH image it was 100% for the few weeks I mined. Can't recall of the top of my head if it was wolf / ccminer. I'm mining on dwarfpool if that matters.

ah, ok. yes, with 120mm fans that sounds normal. are there any fans for the cpus themselves, or do they work ok with just the chassis airflow?
In any case, that sounds like a lot of bad shares. I've noticed a handful on penalty shares myself now that I've started using stak on more of my servers, but certainly not 1%, let alone 8%. Sounds like something is wrong.

No CPU fans. Let Intel ME control the fan speeds as needed.
I may have the reason for high rate of duplicates. I'll switch to a nanopool and see how that works

Even that would mean more than 2 years Full blast to get The costs in for that processor... Doing nothing else, with The actual value
Patrick - would appreciate your feedback - my E5 2696v3 is pulling in 750 to 800 h/s and I am wondering if its worthwhile to keep mining assuming power is is free? I have a dual E5 2696 V4 workstation coming online as well in the coming weeks to join the party.
Is that for one or dual e5-2696v3? I'm seeing 975H for a 2xe5-2660v2 which is a much cheaper proc.

Use profit calculator to find out!
People are crazy: buying very expensive CPUs to earn few bucks on mining
I'd say if you've got free power then it's the cost of using it for mining against selling it and just buying coin today.
Ubuntu 16.0.4 with xmr-stak-cpu
Sept 2017
ASUS Z9PE , single CPU E5-2696 v2 , 8 x 8gb RAM ,
E5-2696 v2 ( L3 30MB , 15 Threads ) , 670 H/s , 180w = 3.72 H/s per watt
Update , bios disable unused cores
E5-2696 v2 (8 active cores , 15 Threads ) , 630 H/s , 157w = 4.0 H/s per watt
Not a good CPU for XMR mining.

For whatever reason, I have two identical Supermicro 1230v2 machines running for Monero using xmr-stak-cpu. Same hardware, processor, pool, etc. Just did a fresh install on both of them as well.
One is maxing at 267H/s, but the other is only seeing 106H/s. I've compared variables set at a mobo and they appear to be identical. Nothing different has been done to either machine.
I'm surely missing something somewhere though - this sounds too far off to not be a setting somewhere. Anyone have ideas?
