I have done a lot of debating with myself whether i would share this.
Well, i decided to do so and on top of that, open source it.
Bravo, great to see you're still around Heliox, will give it a spin this weekend and post results. Its good to see the old wizards (ElioVP, jstenfanop, Laik2, scryptr, Claymore, Doktor83) all out in one thread again, talking all technical making us feel stupid. Also great to see long term lurkers dagarair, rednoW, dragonmike, p00p135, Walrusbonzo and an actual thread being active. I missed this shit. |

I see nothing on the pool. Can someone help from experience with sparkpool, point out whats wrong with my bminer string :
bminer -uri cuckaroo29://username%40gmail%2Ecom%2F$rigName@grin-eu.sparkpool.com:6666 -api 127.0.0.1:1880

The RX590 series is nothing more than a overclocked , fine tuned RX 480 / RX 580  Yea, but it cant be the same die size if its a node shrink. |

The 7950's are 3GB cards, and although the DAG has still not exceeded 3GB you can no longer mine with 3GB cards on windows because windows reserves a part of your GPU memory.
Switch to any linux based distro to continue mining for another 6 months untill the DAG eventually increases to 3GB.

Hitting ~1000h/s on my RX 470's across memory types. Great job guys, repped++. Currently testing for stability and poolside reporting consistency.

I would buy em, I have been accumulating GPU's for the last 4 months now and mining at 0.12usd/kWH. $120 is a pretty good price for the RX 570's even if you do not plan on mining with them since they are easily resold at $130-140.

I only work if there is an advanced payment. Too bad!
Actually, I am quite busy right now anyway.
I *think* I found a crack in one of the major algorithms.
If rumors are correct, somebody must have been taking advantage of it for quite some time now.
Oh will you stop teasing us all the time  OK, OK. I will disclose as much as I can. I am not going to reveal everything as I still need to pay my bills, though. There is a critical flaw in Ethash'es memory-hardness as you can generate DAG on the fly with enough computing power. This is probably impractical with GPU's, but it seems that it is quite possible with FPGA's and ASIC's. I found an efficient way to represent an Ethash DAG with a memory footprint in the order of several MB's, which is three orders of magnitude less than the original DAG. I might be able to implement this method with Vega if I can squeeze everything onto Vega's 4MB L2 cache. This sounds pretty interesting, as long as ASIC manufacturers arent reading this  i hope this sees the light of day soon. |

Can anyone help here? Its been working fine for months. I had to reset my PC and now Im getting this:
CUDA error - cannot allocate big buffer for DAG. Check readme.txt for possible solutions.
GPU 4 failed
Setting DAG epoch #213 for GPU4
i did same and getting similar kind of error "GPU failed" do you have last version? i notice that too on one of my ring, i notice i had an old version of the miner there Try increasing your Paging file size to the maximum possible. |

Phoenix
Any idea why with going from 3.5C to D that my 13 1070 cards went from 420.7 to 420.4?
I havent plugged my wattmeter in to see what if any change to the power consumption has changed yet.
I am using the same bat file with no changes since 3.0
I thought the new more efficient kernel was for AMD only
Im sorry you worry about going from 420.7 to 420.4??? A whole 0.07% decrease? You are VERY new to mining arent you? |

Interesting thread. Me and my 70 x GTX 1060s will be keeping a close watch on Leonardo.

Let me know your location, im interested.

Leave a price quote here in the thread, and let me know your location in Bangalore, I will come over and test them in person.

I finally gave it a try now that profitability has tanked and I was shutting my farm down.
Good miner, similar to Claymore, easy to setup and use and lots of information displayed.
Works well on my AMD Rx 570's, with maximum tweaking I am getting about 0.2 mh per care more with Phoenix and consuming 4W power less compared to claymores.
Also this miner has a lower devfee, so theres three title advantages in all - 1% extra hash rate, 4% lower power, and 0.35% lower fee.
If I ever boot up my farm again, I would use this miner going forward. Also appreciate the regular updates to it, which hasn't been the case for claymores.

In the recent Ethereum developers livestream by the Ethereum Foundation it was officially confirmed that the ETH mining block reward will be reduced from 3 Ether to 2 Ether in their hopes to curb inflation and appeal their investors / stakeholders.
They also agreed upon disabling/postponing the difficulty bomb by 12 months, so that will bring the difficulty very low, and ETH payouts for miners will actually GO UP once both these changes come into effect. With clear disinterest from the Ethereum team of developers to work on a new mining algorithm and their continued focus of developing their PoS Proof of Stake model.There is an extremely low probability of ETH adopting a new PoW Proof of Work algorithm especially one that is best for GPU mining such as ProgPOW.
ETH has ALWAYS stated their goal of moving to POS as soon as possible, its just delays that have kept them on POW. ProgPOW has not been demonstrated to work in an actual live network yet so that is an academic example at best. They could also look at parameter changes to the existing Ethash algo instead (similar to whats being done to equihash for GRIN), but the E3 miners could just get a bios update to adopt. A significant change in algorithm needs a lot of work to make sure all miners/pools/wallets are still compatible. I do however agree that this work is needed for continued stability of the network and sticking true to their claim of being a ASIC Resistant network. If you dont make an effort to stay true to your single biggest claim, why would anyone believe ANYTHING that comes out of the ethereum foundation. The network would have been nothing without the GPU miners - wouldnt even have gotten off the ground, and they need to disable the ASIC's. I fear it may already be too late for the network as with the continued price crashes most GPU miners will be turning off their systems, and the network will be at the mercy of ASICs. The next month or so would be critical for not just GPU miners or the Eth token, but the future of the Ethereum network. |

Nothing unfortunately Its not even profitable to mine any longer. I guess all we can do is wait and watch. |

Physically the biggest is the Onda DB8 12GPU Motherboard :  It has 12 Physical x16 PCIe slots for mounting gpus on it directly ( all are electrically x1 ofcource). Otherwise, the H370 Mining Master from Asus takes the cake with *claimed* 20 GPU support - yet to be released in retail so we dont have reviews yet - Im sure we cant go beyond the 13GPU limit without using Mining Cards. |

I wrote this april 23rd but it applies to any ability to create tokens not just through aura youstocks; we are all going to be creating tokens now
Spam another thread with this and you'll be reported to the mods and possibly banned. This is a thread about ethereum, stay on point please. |
