Title: Started Merged Scrypt-N Mining, anybody else?
Post by: asprin on May 14, 2014, 08:14:00 AM
So after seeing all the big scrypt ASICs about to hit the market (apparently scrypt-n now too...) I decided to switch my small 3x Gigabyte 270x GPU rig to merge mine some scrypt-n coins, Vert/Monacle/Parallax.  I just wanted to post my experiences on here and the final hash rate I've settled on with these cards and scrypt-n; they were doing 500Kh/s on regular scrypt.

I'm using BAMT 1.6.2 running live off a USB stick.  Average about 230Kh/s per card on scrypt-n with my config, which seems to be able right for this card.

I was wondering if anybody else was using 270x to mine any scrypt-n coins and what hash rate they are getting?

See the link below for the output of Vertminer on BAMT:

Yeah that's good, I get about 220Kh/s on my 270s, but I don't push them to the absolute limits for stability.

i'm also looking to mine a new algo coin but so far darkcoin gotten too popular that it is pretty useless to mine atm. checking out tj atm with the ocean algo.. maybe curecoin later or even rightcoin coming up using x11

curecoin folding is too much of a cpu intensive, with just 2 280x my i5 4670k was used at 50%+, it's stupid
