Is it possible to create a computing cluster of farms for Bitcoin mining?

Question

System administration

I will describe the situation:
It is necessary to make calculations using engineering programs. Now a machine with two E5-2630 xeons and an FX series quadric is working on the task. Calculations take about 8-12 hours.
Walking around Ali, I noticed that farms for mining of the previous generation have become much cheaper and cost about $150-250. Considering that AMD GPUs are mainly located there, and AMD-shniks ported CUDA, the idea arose to assemble a cluster of 6-8 such farms to speed up calculations. But I can not find information on this issue that either refuted or confirmed my idea.

Answer 1

Considering that there are mainly GPUs from AMD

There are not GPUs from AMD, but ASICs.
That is, a specialized chip that can calculate a hash, except for calculating the hash according to the algorithm wired into it, it cannot do anything. Give the input a number, it gives you a hash.

Answer 2

In order.
>>A machine with two E5-2630 xeons and an FX series quadric is currently working.
As far as I know, quadro and other models differ from the usual ones in that they can double-precision floating point operations, which is 10 times better than regular geforce thanks to special drivers. This is a marketing ploy to demarcate the market and sell video cards with 10 times the cost for work.
This double precision is just the same in demand by engineering programs and scientific calculations. Perhaps you are a lucky exception and can use regular maps
>>farms for mining the past generation
How much past and mining what? If bitcoins have been mining them on ASIC for a long time. It is almost impossible to adapt an ASIC to anything other than computing bitcoins.
litecoin / ethereum miners at a price of 150 somehow did not find. But I think that with the same success you can go to a flea market and take yourself AMD / Nvidia of varying degrees of antiquity.
>>>AMD-shniki ported CUDA
Where are the firewood from? I only saw info from two years ago that they are working on it. They have their own OpenCL and stick to it.
