Monero Mining Compute Cluster – 20× Supermicro Dual Xeon Blade Nodes
Enterprise-grade platform, assembled and tested in the EU.
Overview
This compute cluster is purpose-built for high-throughput Monero (XMR) mining using the RandomX algorithm. Engineered with twenty Supermicro SBI-421E-1T3N blade servers, each equipped with dual Intel Xeon Silver 4516Y+ processors, the system delivers consistent, scalable CPU mining performance with enterprise-grade reliability and management capabilities.
The cluster is housed in a Supermicro SBE-820J2-630 4U blade enclosure, featuring integrated 25G networking, centralized power delivery, and remote chassis management. Designed for institutional mining, on-prem cryptographic compute infrastructure, or remote-hosted deployment.

Mining Performance
Each blade is optimized for RandomX mining and tuned for multi-threaded, NUMA-aware operation using XMRig with large page support, static CPU affinity, and performance governor settings.
-
Estimated performance per node: 9,500–10,000 H/s
-
Total cluster hashrate: ~190,000–200,000 H/s
-
RandomX optimization includes AVX2 acceleration, cache tuning, and memory prefetching
Cluster performance may vary depending on ambient conditions, tuning parameters, and pool selection.

The questions buyers ask us most often before ordering a server.
How long does it take?
Machines built from components we hold ship quickly; anything requiring a specific GPU generation depends on supply. We give you a date before you pay, and if it moves we tell you rather than letting you find out.
Can the configuration be changed before you build it?
Almost always. GPUs, memory, storage and cooling are chosen per order, and the listed configuration is a starting point rather than a fixed package. If you need more VRAM, faster storage or a different cooling approach, say so before you order and we will quote the change.
Can I collect the server in person?
You can. Our warehouse is in Prague, and collection in person is welcome — most people who come use the visit to go through the machine with our engineer and ask the questions that are awkward over email. For orders within the Czech Republic we also try to deliver personally and walk you through the setup on site.
Can I talk to someone who actually understands the workload?
Yes. We have an engineer who works on AI systems specifically, not a general sales desk. If your question is about batch sizes, quantisation, interconnect or where your bottleneck will be, ask it — that conversation usually changes the configuration for the better.
Which model can I run on this configuration?
Yes. Every machine is assembled, burn-in tested and benchmarked on real AI workloads before it ships, and it leaves us with an LLM already installed and running. You plug it in, connect it to your network and start work — the only decision left is which project it runs first.
How do you test a server before shipping?
We run it against actual AI workloads rather than synthetic scores: inference throughput, sustained load behaviour and thermals under continuous operation. You get the benchmark results with the machine, so the performance you were promised is the performance you can verify on day one.
Is the server ready to run when it arrives?
Yes. Every machine is assembled, burn-in tested and benchmarked on real AI workloads before it ships, and it leaves us with an LLM already installed and running. You plug it in, connect it to your network and start work — the only decision left is which project it runs first.
Ships from our EU warehouse. Heavy items may require freight arrangement — contact us for a shipping quote and lead time. 2-year limited warranty with advanced RMA support; extended warranty available.
Not exactly what you need?
Tell us your workload and we'll spec this platform around it — GPUs, memory, storage and cooling matched to what you actually run.
