Is making a machine for mining XMR worth it? : Monero | Torhoo darknet markets

Considering building an underclocked threadripper system for mining XMR, given it seems worth it since its been going up steadily. Power isn't too expensive in my area so I'm not too concerned with the power draw, just dont see the point in letting it kick at full for minute performance benefits. Is it worth it to get a threadripper, or should I just go and get some other desktop processor for it?

No. Mining monero hasn't been profitable since they switched to randomx.

Honestly, it wasn't too bad when I was mining with a few old dell servers I found, I just want to make something more compact for it.

Xmr mining has been overtaken by botnet miners.

If you want to mine it's for supporting the network, the ROI takes forever to invest new hardware to break even, if never.

Just use your own machines and run one.

I believe with my minimal evidence ARM based processors are more efficient.

It's definitely a hobby mine more than a money mine now. if you have free electricity, go for it.
