Yes - burn energy.
But also create a lot of DCR I hope.

Btw I have got a little problem with my miner.
I use cgminer and I get a message "Pool 0 can not provide work fast enough" like every 30 seconds.

What's the problem here?

I just ordered 2 6990's let's see what they can do with their dual GPU.

One more question.

I have got 2 GPU's now. One 6970 and one 6950.
I get "Pool 0 not providing work fast enough" like every minute.

Is there any possibility to get the work faster or change to another pool?

I had the same problem already with one card.

Perfect, thank you.

Now it shows 620 Mh/s in the miner with no stale shares.
Pool also shows ~ 600 now

But all in all the pool anly shows 200-300 Mh/s... that's a bit low...

You might be right. I have nearly exact 50% stale shares. So only 50% of the 1,3 Gh/s.

Hey guys,

I just started mining DCR and I have already got some questions.

I use cgminer 3.7.2 which shows me a speed of 1,3 Gh/s but my pool says only ~ 0,5 Gh/s.
There are different ports for different difficultys. I'm in difficulty 1 - should I change to something higher?

I get a lot of "unknown-work" shares... that's not good I think - anything I can do here?
I had 35 accepted and 26 unaccpted... changed to diff. 8 now which is shown as diff 1,04K but as it seems no difference - still unknown-work shares...

I'm looking for a mining calculator - can anyone provide me a site with a calculator?

I have done some overclocking. I just started a miner and it does 1,3 Gh/s
And tomorrow I will have a second 6950 flashed to 6970.. so maybe something around 2,5 -3  Gh/S

Do you know a marketplace to trade DCR to BTC?

DCR?
Is it profitable to mine it?

Isn't open CL a part of Catalyst?
And I recently updated the catalyst to 15.7.1 whcih is one of the newest versions.

Hey,

I use ethminer with my AMD GPU and when I start it it says JSON parse error JSON file not JSON valid.

I also have a CPU miner which I started and it wiorked - I closed it and started it again and then I had the exact same problem.

Whats's wrong?

I'm trying to mine ETH on my HD 6950 but get the error, that the DAG can't be created in one piece.
One solution should be setting "export GPU_MAX_ALLOC_PERCENT=95" - but I don't know how / where to set this?

I use QtMiner on my Windows 7 64 Bit System - where can I set the GPU Max Alloc?

Forgot the link:
http://forum.ethereum.org/discussion/2737/some-cards-need-export-gpu-max-alloc-percent-95?new=1

But I don't know how to insert that into my batch

This one might be a solution.
But I don't know what to do exactely.

Currently I start the miner with a batch: qtminer.exe -u 0x17C0Be*********32D4cA9569EBA3d9B605CF2.Rig1 -G

What do I need to add here and where?

But they also have no clue how to solve the problem..

The system has only 2 GB ram. Some ppl said the problem was solved after adding more ram... but I don't think that this is the problem.

Hey guys,

I was just about to set up a ETH miner, but I always get the error, that the DAG file could not be allocated.

I use QtMiner on Windows 7 64 Bit with a HD 6950 (2GB).

Anyone has an idea what's the problem?

Mit dem QtMiner war ich schon nah dran... allerdings die Fehlermeldung dass der DAG nicht erzeugt werden kann....

Karte hat 2 GB VRAM und im System sind 2 GB Ram verbaut. Das sollte doch irgendwie zu machen sein?

Kann mir hier bitte mal jemand helfen einen Miner aufzusetzen?

Windows 7 64 Bit + HD 6950

Die Anleitung die weiter oben gepostet wurde funktioniert nicht.
