Title: Minerd - For QRK and QRK Clones Post by: fasbit on January 28, 2014, 07:10:40 PM Background:
OK..cpu mining is NOT dead... I have several AMD 8 core miners that easily pull in 700-800 kh/s mining QRK clones... Problem: Another rig with same CPU only pulls in 400 - 500 kh/s on same pool, same OS, same version minerd Anyone else have this issue? Could it be mobo somehow? MOBO is only hardware diff between rigs.... OS: Linux Xubuntu 12.04 CPU: AMD FX 8350 I got a funky "libcurl.so not found error", but it went away when I installed "libcurl4-openssl-dev" but otherwise rigs are identical Title: Re: Minerd - For QRK and QRK Clones Post by: nous on January 29, 2014, 11:40:57 AM A couple of things pop in my mind:
1. The mobo underclocks the CPUs too agressively, look at the "Cool'n'Quiet" BIOS setting (it shouldn't though, given the load). Issuing 'lscpu' on a terminal will show you the current MHz. 2. The memory modules might be too slow. Replace them with a couple from a 'fast' rig to see if it makes any difference. |
