you've got a 98gb virtual memory, and your wondering about stability, maybe you need to look up what a pagefile does on a ssd or hard drive. any IT person knows a large page file affects performance really badly, to the point it can affect stability. theres NO need for anything larger than 16gb virtual memory PERIOD. if you need to increase it that means the system is using too much somewhere and you need to figure out what and fix it instead of just adding too the problem

98gb is a little much, but I get out of memory errors in pretty much any miner instantly on all of my rigs (6gpu vega 56, 6gpu 1070ti's, 6gpu 1080ti's), if I don't have my virtual memory set at 50gb.  I'm running 8gb of ddr4 in each.  The OS runs fine without that big of a page file, until I start the miner.

When I check to see what's using so much memory, it's the miner.  I don't know how I can get away with a 16gb page file, unless I upgrade them all to 32gb ram.

Also, your rig may have a solution to part of a block but your latency is 15ms slower than another rig closer to the node.  They get credit for the work done and you don't.  

Should I not be mining over my WIFI? I currently am.  Would I get a lot less latency with wired ethernet?  My ethernet router is 1 gbps, and my WIFI is ~72mbps.

You'll get a lot more stability.  WIFI is dogshit.

Why would they answer your email?  You don't fully understand the ecosystem and the number of people that are trying to get into it right now, do you?.  Some exchanges shut off new user registration, because they haven't been able to handle the demand. 

You are in for a real treat ... Lol.  Nothing about this works perfectly and 100% of the time.  You're way to early in the game for that sort of thing to be taking place.  Honestly, with all of the bitching and moaning that you do, I'd come back in 5-10 years and see where things are at.  In this game, you will not be catered to like you are with Amazon customer service.  If you need that type of hand holding, this isn't for you.

just go to nicehash
all you have to do just press some buttons few times
oh, or there is another way to earn money - just ask your parents to give you some money, very easy, indeed
and there is more harder way then mining - go to work and work from 9 am to 18 pm


Or ask your mother to come over to my house.  I have some things she could do to earn extra money. Lol.
1025  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: I just found out my mining programs have been extoring me on: January 19, 2018, 04:41:58 AM
Yes, for me it's a natural thing that software developers take a percentage of our hashes (DevFee). That's also a very small percentage. Without Dev software, who will connect to the miner's equipment and the pool equipment or the coin algorithm to be mined? Think of it as a sign of gratitude to them.

what is it 1% every hour of 24 hours is  24%a  day  thats basically like getting taxed by the government...\

24% of myt hashes and electricty the righteous DEV has been STEALING from me


not to mention we have to pay taxes 35%  now on your gains, in America at least.

so now 50 cents out of every dollar is being taken from me, this is barbaric

you're a f*cking idiot.

He's right.  You're not thinking about this correctly.  It's 1%, not 1% every hour.  If you mine $100USD worth of coin, they take $1 dollar out of that.  If they take 2%, they are getting $2 and you are getting $98 out of every $100.  Those are not the only fees you will pay on your way to cash out into USD, but you certainly are not thinking correctly at the moment.
1026  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Are these MINING MASHINES sites are SCAM/FAKE ?! on: January 19, 2018, 04:37:31 AM
Hi, guys ! I want to buy new mining mashines ( S9 ). I found two EU sites and could SB tell me if they are FAKE or NOT ?!

The sites are:
1. https://bitminershop.net/index.php?route=product/product&path=59&product_id=50 (Important!! - My antivirus send me alert for this one!!!)

2. https://antshopeu.com/antminer-s9 (Im more sure about this one)

Thank You very much !!


what is a "mashine" ?

English probably is not his native language.  He means "machine" and he is talking about a S9.

Well you might, but that's just the way it is right now.  Keep trying.  Manufacturers are not keeping up with demand.  They really had no way of knowing that there would be this kind of demand though, so it isn't like they could have been preparing for it.
1028  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: which is the best 1080ti to buy? Im seeing all kinds and prices changing before on: January 19, 2018, 04:15:30 AM
This is my favorite 1080 Ti. It's all I've been ordering lately. EVGA had some in stock within the past hour, but was limit 1 per customer:
https://www.evga.com/articles/01123/evga-geforce-gtx-1080-ti-ftw3-hybrid/

I doubt there's a 1080 Ti that yields higher hash rates and runs cooler and quieter at stock/default settings.

And the good deals on eBay have been PCs w/ GPU(s). Last one I bought brings the cost down to half of retail after parting out the rest of the build. Example, I bought this one for $1500 by best offer: https://www.ebay.com/itm/i7-4790K-32GB-GTX1080ti-Gaming-Editing-PC/183004832100?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&_trksid=p2060353.m2749.l2649

Yet this GPU alone has been selling for $1.5k to $1k at bottom on eBay: https://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_from=R40&_sacat=0&LH_Complete=1&LH_Sold=1&_nkw=1080+ti+ftw3+hybrid&_sop=16

So one could say that GPU came with a free computer!

so if I want one I have to keep checking the websites, like 50 times a day to see if the pop up for sale come up?  Well, looks like I will keep on clicking

No dude ... Pick the retailers you want to buy from ... Go to their sites and sign up for email notifications on the products you want to buy.  You'll get an email when they are in stock.  If you are fast enough, you'll actually be able to buy some.  I've bought 6 1070ti's and 6 1080ti's over the past few weeks and that was the only way I was able to do it.  You have to be fast though.  You need to do it as soon as they email you.  On those two orders that I'm talking about, they were out of stock within 45 minutes of the email coming in.
1029  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Are these MINING MASHINES sites are SCAM/FAKE ?! on: January 19, 2018, 03:50:30 AM
Well,

I ordered an S9 on Jan 8th and my order is still pending. I didn't pay $120 extra for Express delivery though.

I am not defending them, but here's what's on their website.

"REFUNDS


All purchases are final. Request for refund will not be honored by us. We advise you to make any payment only after careful consideration. In the case that we fail to ship out your order, we will contact you for refund.  Generally, refund will be in USD with the USD amount of your order amount instead of the BTC amount, considering USD is a fixed amount, not a variable like BTC."

I hope they will contact me for refund if won't deliver my S9.

If you ordered a S9 directly from Bitmain on Jan 8th, you probably won't get it until March.  They do give estimated batch ship dates on their site, which you probably didn't bother to read.  And no, they won't give you a refund.  Are you fucking crazy, man?  Did you read any of the hundreds of pages in the S9 thread on this forum?  Do you have any idea what the fuck you are doing?  I guess you didn't bother to read their refund policy before you placed the order either?  WTF is wrong with you?

He's just a cry baby all the way around.  I've been reading other threads that he has started.  WA-WA ... They are extorting me ... WA-WA ... I can't get gpu's at a decent price ... WA-WA ... New Egg made me enter my credit card and now they are out of stock.  Jezzus Fucking Christ dude ... You should have already had a credit card on file with whoever you are wanting to buy gpu's from so once you get that email that they are in stock, you can get in and out quick. 
1031  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: which is the best 1080ti to buy? Im seeing all kinds and prices changing before on: January 19, 2018, 03:42:14 AM
You just picked a bad time to get into gpu mining.  Now you will pay the price for it.  Even if that price is much higher than what I was paying back in November for higher end gpu's.  Or you just wait.  Maybe btc will go to 3k tomorrow and stay there for a year.  GPU stock will be replenlished everywhere in time and prices will come down, because no one will want to buy 6 at a time anymore ... Well people like you won't want to.
1032  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: I just found out my mining programs have been extoring me on: January 19, 2018, 02:55:29 AM

What does the system event log tell you is going on at the time of a crash?
1034  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: which is the best 1080ti to buy? Im seeing all kinds and prices changing before on: January 19, 2018, 02:48:56 AM
my eyes....

after long and hard research and conversations with people I have come to the conclusion, based on the stats, that the1080ti is the card im going to get. Now I see that there are so many of them, which one is the correct one to buy? I know there are difference because there price changes for each model, I see some with 2 fans, 3 fans, rear blowers...

List the ones that you see in stock that you can buy right now.  Personally I would rule out any that are above $850usd. 
1035  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: I just found out my mining programs have been extoring me on: January 19, 2018, 02:43:56 AM
It isn't here and there.  It is a set percentage.  Just like wallets charge you to move from your wallet to an exchange ... Set percentage or flat fee ... Just like maker and taker fees on the exchanges ... Set percentages ... Moving from an exchange to a wallet ... You get charged for it ... Set percentage or flat fee.  It's the cost of doing business.

It isn't extortion.  Do you think a developer is going to write software and give it away for free just for fun?  Lol.  Do you the people who run exchanges are doing it as a hobby?  It's a fucking business and businesses do it for profit.  People expect to get paid for their work. 

When you go to your job at McDonalds, do you go there and flip burgers for several hours a day just for fun?
1036  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: I just found out my mining programs have been extoring me on: January 19, 2018, 02:21:09 AM
Stealing?  It's called a fucking developer fee.  Most of them are upfront about what percentage it is.  If you don't like it, write your own software.

1039  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: error code 43 on: January 18, 2018, 10:51:42 PM
I had this exact issue on one of my rigs a couple of weeks ago.  The gpu wasn't getting enough power.  The reason for that was that the power cable to the psu wasn't plugged all the way in, but the riser power was lighting the card up (which was making me thing it was getting power from the psu).

You said you've already checked all cables, so maybe this isn't your issue.

Yea I’ve unplugged it for now and I’m rubbing 3 1080tis, when I get home I’ll replug everything in and try again. The thing is, it was working perfectly fine before I fiddled with it and I added the fourth gpu.

You mean that you're getting the error 43 on all of the cards once you add the fourth?  Or you're just getting it on the fourth card?
