Hi everyone,

I've recently acquired a very powerful workstation. Specs are Threadripper PRO 5995WX, 128GB ECC DDR4, 4 TB Gen4 storage, and RTX 4090 (can do 2x 3090 with NVLink as well).

How can I put this rig to good use to generate some passive income? I have a 900/900 fiber connection and someone suggested running some game serves on it but not sure if it's a good idea.

Any suggestion is highly appreciated!

Thank you.

The best thing I can suggest is selling it to me. With the cost of electricity, I am doing you a favor and you can just count the monthly savings. $50 sounds fair considering how much I'm going to spend running it.
