Try using cgminer with an intensity of 13, a core clock of 1022, and a memory clock of 1244.

One question, likely something jasinlee would feel fine disclosing: Do you intend to work with one of the authors of a popular mining program to get bitstream support or are you making your own mining software solution?

Very excited for this project, the next step for litecoin is far underway

Do you have Java installed? Try showing hidden files, and launching LitecoinGUIMiner.jar

Do you have Java installed?

I am interested in some additional power I've PM'd you.

Try launching it a few times, sometimes reaper bugs out on it.

Yeah, if you used the device 0 setting you will need to add device 1 as well. That's about it for all of that stuff, since they are the same card they should work with the same threadconc.

Try a 0.57 Core:Memory ratio (570 Core to 1000 Memory is a good starting point)

Thank you, I'll go with the PPS rate I set though, give you a few extra bits

You don't have to put the cards in crossfire
The only detriment to performance with a multi-GPU system is increased heat. If your computers don't ventilate well (small areas, etc.) then two cards in the same place might just be too much heat and cause some throttling. If you have good (air or water or oil) cooling, you should be good to go.

I am looking to purchase people's shares for normal SHA256 mining, at 150% PPS.

What does this mean? When you would normally get 0.5 Bitcoins mining, you get 0.75 in the same time period. Sound nice? Shoot me a PM!

I'm looking for power above or around 700MH/s, and will start small, then if all goes well likely order larger contracts from you if you are interested.

Glad its working! What hash rate are you getting on each 6950?

Hopefully this weekend I will be implementing a remote management tool

On average you'd get a block every 2 days with that kind of hashing power. There is of course inherent risk with solo mining, while a pool tends to be more consistant.

Yeah, I'll just send you the details for my miner on coinotron

Just changed my offer, as I redid math and got a lower profit margin than I expected. Anyhow, basically 1BTC will buy me 187000 shares from someone who wants to work with me. If you are still interested at the 150% I can pay upfront

Litecoins bring a few interesting points to the table, namely:
-Scrypt algorithm: If SHA256 is at some point cracked or a reduction function is created for it, scrypt should still be fairly safe (although I understand scrypt has some ties into SHA family algorithms)
-Transaction time: Blocks are mined faster, confirms happen faster. Some will argue that 10min is perfect, some love 2 minutes.
-Hedging against Bitcoin without Fiat: Awesome


Just like people don't have an issue with Euros and USD coexisting, there is no reason that we can't have more than one crypto currency. However, many people are against the idea of multiple currencies for a few reasons:
-Random spam (BBQ coins?)
-Diverges people from a main coin
-Many Bitcoiners feel that it threatens their coin
-Multiple currencies make the learning curve harder for entry into cryptocurrencies

Due to the nature of the Scrypt algorithm, Litecoins are resistant (not immune) to ASIC and FPGA design, and bridge the gap a bit between CPU mining and GPU mining.

650W should handle one 7970 just fine, I am throwing 3 7970s into a system with 1000W.

You may get better results if you post in Alternate Currencies

Either way, from what I understand a higher memory clock is much more important than the actual amount of RAM on the card--1GB should be plenty. If you are talking about a 7xxx series above a 77xx then you want to be looking at getting a 0.57-0.6 ratio between core/memory.
