Title: Rented miner with high HW errors Post by: bomberb17 on November 20, 2013, 04:15:35 PM Hello
I have rented a 80Gh/s miner for a week, and I have now access to its web interface. I entered my worker credentials and it started mining. However, after a few hours, I realized that it had very high HW errors. This is what I have after 1.5 days of mining: Elapsed MHSav FoundBlocks Getworks Accepted Rejected HW Utility Discarded 1d 17h 37m 29s 81965.76 0 5393 46507 8457 47677 18.62 10707 Is this normal? My bitcoin.cz account shows: Average hashrate in last 10 rounds: 68359 Mhash/s And the graph shows that I am getting 0.08BTC per day.

either A. the miner has been rigged to look more powerful than it is B. the guy renting it to you has some seriously crap cooling and slower than dial up internet Title: Re: Rented miner with high HW errors Post by: zvs on November 20, 2013, 04:48:42 PM i'm not really sure as to why you'd rent out your personal bitcoin mining equipment as a not for profit endeavor

If you are getting .080 that's about right. The mine specs are terrible, I see .5% or less on reject and HW errors. If the pool is paying you the .08 btc each 24hrs I wouldn't worry to much. .56 btc per week adds up.

Is there a reliable calculator that shows how many BTC/day is each Ghs compared to the current difficulty?
