Title: New to Ethereum some newb questions Post by: molitar on February 21, 2016, 04:55:22 AM Windows 7 x64
Sapphire Vapor-X R9 280x First I tried to run with Alethone and my hashrate is at 20Mh/s that seemed a bit low for an R9 280x is that a bit low? Second major problem I had with Alethone is it kept crashing with error... Faulting application name: AlethOne.exe, version: 0.0.0.0, time stamp: 0x55f6a463 Faulting module name: ntdll.dll, version: 6.1.7601.19045, time stamp: 0x56259295 Exception code: 0xc0000374 Fault offset: 0x00000000000bffc2 So with this constant crashing it does not seem it will run for me well at all. So what client would you recommend for best performance? Also if I do pool mining does geth still need to run? Any suggestions on a good pool?

You can try the Ethereminer on a pool.

Ok something seems really strange with nanopool it went down to 8.8Mh/s but it shows me hashing much faster than that. miner 05:02:34|main Mining on PoWhash #edf56769窶ヲ : 19922944 H/s = 9961472 hashes / 0.5 s miner 05:02:35|main Mining on PoWhash #edf56769窶ヲ : 20837087 H/s = 16252928 hashes / 0.78 s miner 05:02:35|main Mining on PoWhash #edf56769窶ヲ : 20783795 H/s = 16252928 hashes / 0.782 s miner 05:02:36|main Mining on PoWhash #edf56769窶ヲ : 20783795 H/s = 16252928 hashes / 0.782 s miner 05:02:37|main Mining on PoWhash #edf56769窶ヲ : 20757251 H/s = 16252928 hashes / 0.783 s miner 05:02:38|main Mining on PoWhash #edf56769窶ヲ : 20757251 H/s = 16252928 hashes / 0.783 s miner 05:02:39|main Mining on PoWhash #edf56769窶ヲ : 21065142 H/s = 16515072 hashes / 0.784 s miner 05:02:39|main Mining on PoWhash #edf56769窶ヲ : 20905154 H/s = 16515072 hashes / 0.79 s miner 05:02:40|main Mining on PoWhash #edf56769窶ヲ : 20757251 H/s = 16252928 hashes / 0.783 s miner 05:02:41|main Mining on PoWhash #edf56769窶ヲ : 21092045 H/s = 16515072 hashes / 0.783 s miner 05:02:42|main Mining on PoWhash #edf56769窶ヲ : 20971520 H/s = 16777216 hashes / 0.8 s so how can I be getting 8.8MH/s on nanopool? btw I had to go back to ethminer it is the ONLY one I could get to work as EthOne kept crashing.

Their display of the hash rate is quite accurate. It is not more than 5% difference.

It is the largest pool now.

My card has been running oveclocked and currently shows ..
currently on low difficulty for Suprnova and this is where I am at. Think I'll make much more or do better at coinotron?

I see even Suprnova mentions Dwarfpool. Also what exactly is proxy mining I can't really tell what is happening using Coinotron with proxy mining as the hashing seems to be very low at only 10.7MH/s while Suprnova I was fluctuation between 24-47MH/s with my GPU. Second thing I am really confused out on payouts so simply should I leave it at the default PPLNS or use RBPPS? Ok please let me know if my assumption is wrong here. Suprnova low-diff pool no proxy mining I was getting lowest hash around 25MH/s and high up to 31MH/s on low diff mining pool. I tried Coinotron using proxy mining and my hash rate goes down to low of 20MH/s and only went to high of 29.8MH/s for a very short amount of time than dropped. So my actual earnings look like they will be much lower. Is it because Coinotron has no low diff so not good for single 280x GPU? |
