Title: Having an issue mining, not receiving as many BTC as I should.
Post by: vaonaman on June 17, 2011, 10:54:29 PM
Hey everyone, I have an Ati Radeon HD 5750 OC'd to 850 MHz I get around 160 MHash/s. My friend has an identical build to mine, save exact everything. After a week now mining every night for 13 hours each night. I have 0.25 BTC in my wallet.. Yet my friend has about 4.5 BTC now. Does anyone know what the problem might be?

4.5 BTC sounds like a high amount for a week of mining at 160 MH/s.

O.25 sounds low.  There are many variables contributing to the end amount (which pool, internet connection, parameters, etc) and you didn't provide much.

Sorry, here's my speedtest: http://www.speedtest.net/result/1346282436.png (http://www.speedtest.net)

I'm using deepbit proportional. How many should I be getting a week?

According to deepbit's own calculator, 160 MH/s should get around 0.17 BTC / 24hr. So, ~1.19 BTC per week.
