1322  Other / CPU/GPU Bitcoin mining hardware / Re: Mining rig extraordinaire - the Trenton BPX6806 18-slot PCIe backplane [PICS] on: March 18, 2012, 12:09:03 PM
800mhs ? , you can get ~750mhs at 1.05v on 5890, how can you expect any less than 1ghs on a 7990 ?  I'd aim for 1.4ghs or more...

Because the dual cards tend to be lower clocked and have less powerful VRMs (3 phase vs 4 phase).  A 5970 gets about 1.5x a 5870. A 6990 gets about 1.5x a 6970.  A 7990 then will likely get about 1.5x a 7970.  1GH/s seems likely.  With a heavy overclock maybe 1.2 GH/s.  Then again a rig of 18 cards is never going to be clocked as high as a single GPU rig.

I really don't like your trolling about 5970s ...

5970 easily gets 800 mhash/s in the hands of anyone that is semi capable in OCing and has a brain. Where the heck you get 1.5x Huh A 5870 gets 440 mhash/s so 1.5*440=660 which is incredibly low for a 5970. A much more realistic value would be 750 mhash/s for a 5970.

I don't know what your agenda is but you are probably worried about selling your stack of 5970s once the market is FPGA mostly or trying to get some cheap 7990s or some other fallacy.

I know for sure that the 7990 will get about 90% of the power of 2 full 7970s so 90/100*1400=1260. The 7990 will most likely get 1.25 ghash/s if you know what you are doing. Maybe even 1.3 ghash/s if you are radical a little bit. 7990 will surely get much more than a measly 1 ghash/s for sure.

LOL. Nvidia has no mining card until now and you are boycotting it already Roll Eyes

Anyway, maybe someone more technically inclined ( ArtForz we are looking at you ) can tell us if there is some hope or not.

Pretty detailed information here that appears to be 90% true and the final GTX 680 technical details :

Yeah. By the looks of it GTX 680 will trash the 7970 underclocked at 925 MHz Wink

Gamers buy Nvidia = AMD price drops for miners like you and me but I think the prices are fixed anyway Roll Eyes
1325  Other / CPU/GPU Bitcoin mining hardware / Re: GK104: nVidia's Kepler to be the First Mining Card? on: March 17, 2012, 09:38:01 PM
I don't know about you guys but last time I heard, hotclocks are kept in Kepler so the GTX 680 still might turn out to be a BTC mining monster.

Ready to sell all the red ATI stuff I have. Boycotting them if Nvidia turns up with something competitive. Linux drivers suck too much. No need for xserver and no stupid 8 GPU limit = Nvidia FTW. Just hoping that Kepler does integer math right and not only FP like before for weather forecasting, folding etc.
1326  Other / CPU/GPU Bitcoin mining hardware / Re: 7990 delayed on: March 17, 2012, 09:28:01 PM
I am still waiting for the GK110 dual-GPU card from Nvidia.

Had enough of AMD and their crap. No 7990 for me.

I'm just praying that Kepler will not suck for integer operations ...

Is it just me or does this not seem profitable for 5870 series cards due to slow memory I/O Huh

300 khash/s vs 440 mhash/s Roll Eyes

Hashrate is irrelevant since you are mining with two different algorithms on Bitcoin and Litecoin.

That is correct but I was referring to the profitability that each hashrate can bring.

Just did some calculations right now.

400 khash/s for one 5870 mining LTC scrypt : 0.3 BTC / 24 hours

440 mhash/s for one 5870 mining BTC SHA256 : 0.3 BTC / 24 hours

SO what to do now ? LTC or BTC ?

lol yeah, I bet!  The real question is, are stealth miners built for use on your own computer?  Well.... no.  They're built for installing at work, at the library, etc.
You know, illegal theft of computer time.  People have gotten in serious trouble for that running FAH and Rosetta@home, and that's not for financial gain.

Take it easy man !

You should be thankful this guy gave us the technology. It is our sole responsibility how to use it and in what ways.

Same with Satoshi that gave us BTC. You can use it to help and buy alpaca socks or you can use it for Silk Road ( illegal ) or guns.

It is your choice what you are going to do with the technology he provided us with.

I personally use this on family computers. I tell them what to expect and make sure I pay the extra $$$ needed to cover their power bill yet get me some cheap LTC.

If you are using this for a botnet then that is your decision and immorality. It is all about choice and freedom. Here is some information : use it for good or bad.

Thank you very much for your work, GenTarkin and forget the haters that do not understand what this is about.

Do we get the NMC or you keep them ?

I don't think merge mining gives you 20% more profit than BTC alone but I may be wrong.

1900 total shares available

795 shares total sold, those 795 shares can vote in motions



Well as a private investor and CEO I'm in control of well over 70% of all shares so have a big say in the vote.  On another note BFL have refunded me so I will tell you once the funds clear on on my debit card and when the new board has been paid for also when its shipped.  Although with me acting as UK/EU reseller and him being my friend amongst offer things we should get a good offer and a fast delivery.  He has promised to ship to me within three weeks before the 1st of March.

No.
Only shares that are not in the issuing account can vote. Period. Those shares do not count in your vote. You only have your 25% to vote with, the other 75% is up to the investors, and I have a feeling they would have said no.

You were in the lineup for that BFL single. It would have come eventually.
Now investors are riding on something they know absolutely nothing about.

OgNasty took a risk with his own money on BFL when it was announced. Before they started shipping product. He is probably going to sell those to his mining company, and get a nice share back. But no unproven technology was purchased with company funds.

If you could have waited until the product was announced, it would have looked better. If you had mentioned something about the product other than what it is supposed to do, it would have looked better.

You blindly took investor money and put it in to something they know nothing about. Any investor in a project has the right to know what is being purchased with their money, unless the contract states otherwise, or in the case of some GLBSE companies, are actually not ownership in the company.

Your investors now own this product, whether or not they want to, they deserve to know what it is, everything about it. Now.

Well put. Obvious conflict of interest here.

Should have stuck with BFL choice. Does not even understand how voting works ...

Also refuses to give details about YET ANOTHER secret miner that gets over 9000 MHash/s and gets double the efficiency of the BFL.

Not inspiring, to say the least. I am afraid to say that we seem to have been duped yet again, unless some details about the "secret" / "new" board is revealed.

He basically took the decision without any discussion or approval from shareholders. I'm not sure how that is supposed to work when a bought share allows you to vote and nothing else.

Why did you not put up a motion Huh

Funniest scammer thread in a while.

He first got hacked then he deleted the database then he got hacked again and deleted the database AGAIN.

He still is trying to squeeze some money out of the last suckers.

Just downright low life, bitscalper. Shame on you and your blatant lies. What is next ? Your CPU blows up ? You get to hospital by sticking finger in GPU fan ? Mother unplugs your computer ? Cheesy

Give over the money to its rightful owners !

Someone should seriously consider legal action against these mybitcoin-like scammers that claim "we got haxored" and run away with the BTC.

Anybody got any details about their location, identity, information ? It seems they are from Italy but what do I know.  

BTW thread should be named "Bitscalper scammer back to business ( scamming )"

Agreed. He is full of shit. and cant stop scamming...

1334  Other / CPU/GPU Bitcoin mining hardware / Re: nVidia GeForce GTX 680 Specs leaked on: March 13, 2012, 10:19:24 PM
More articles on OCN today are showing the specs to be pretty locked down to what the OP wrote.  Base clock of 1,000 MHz and boostable from there.  

http://www.overclock.net/t/1228536/tpu-geforce-gtx-680-specifications-sheet-leaked

Article also said though that it might cost ~$550.  I suppose that'd put it in something like 7970 territory but suppose we'd have to see if it'd mine as well with an architecture reconfiguration.

Granted we all know how power can spike with an OC but a TDP of 200w is nice!

Yeah. Seems like Nvidia is pushing the OC envelope with default clock of 1 GHz while AMD stayed very conservative with default of 925.

Wonder why that is ...

Anyway, waiting for the 4608 shader dual-gpu monster from Nvidia. I think 7990 will have a hard time competing Grin
1335  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: PSA : Final Litecoin LTC GPU miner released !!! on: March 13, 2012, 10:05:44 PM
Been out for four days

Profitability is only relevant to the difficulty, which is going up

AFAIK the final version 13.3 is just out today.

It is profitable to mine LTC right now rather than BTC for some cards.

Difficulty is still pretty low so get in while you can Wink
1336  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / PSA : Final Litecoin LTC GPU miner released !!! on: March 13, 2012, 10:02:28 PM
This is the final full version that includes the source code and not the limited "demo" version. This is the real thing. People need to switch to LTC right now because it is much more profitable than BTC ( especially for Nvidia cards ).

Get it here while it is hot : http://wiki.solidcoin.info/wiki/Reaper

Everybody needs to switch from BTC to LTC right now because it is much more profitable.

Nobody is mining BTC anymore Wink

Please post what card you used and how you got it working and what hashrate you get. I am interested in what you get using 5870s !

Thank you very much !

Yeah not sure where people get the idea that a distributor makes the VAT go away.

AFAIK (and granted euro tax law wasn't may major in college)

BFL -> Customer (pay VAT)
BFL -> Distributor (no VAT) .... Distributor -> Customer (pay VAT)

right?

Yeah, you are correct.
And any system designed to bypass customs (incl. VAT) is tax fraud btw.



I sure am very concerned about that Wink

I also declare all my BTC profits to the taxman because the big corporations pay all their taxes to the day, setting a model for everybody else.

Would you pay $850 for a device that is meant to cost $600 ?

ATM the BFL is a no go for the EU / UK unless you go the "dodgy" route ( don't even know what this means ) but a legalised way ( it is not like they are the only ones abusing the tax system and finding loopholes in it; here in the UK there actually are lawyers getting paid to do this by the rich who should be taxed 50% usually ) is what we need if BFL wants to have some EU sales.  
1339  Economy / Securities / Re: Red Star Mining IPO GLBSE Listing 3x'BFL Single' 2.5GH/s@250W on: March 13, 2012, 08:57:58 PM
I've been offered a product very similar to the BFL but uses only half the power and should cost less than $1000 the company will be going public very soon.  Shall we work towards that instead of BFL unit two or even ask for our money back from BFL to order this new product.  It would probably be delivered around the same time as the first BFL we have ordered and we shouldn't have to pay import tax.  What do the current shareholders think continue with the plan of getting three BFL-Singles, or work towards the new similar unit but at only 40W half the BFL power consumption with the rest of the IPO funds, or ask for a refund from BFL to purchase the new board?  As BFL haven't even give us a shipping date so will have plenty people wanting our reserved board if we did go for a new refund to get the new unit which runs at only 40W half the power of the BFL for the same MH/s rate but will cost up to $100 then we would have first choice on the the fist delivery.  The new company are just burning in there prototype and building a business plan before going public very soon but the CEO is a close friend so could make sure we get one as soon as the company goes public very soon.

I do think that BFL has a good product based on what they have delivered, however the constant delays in manufacture and shipping are a big concern to me.  I'd really like to get a better idea of the specifications of the alternative hardware, but if we can get something comparable in price and efficiency, and actually receive it in 4-6 weeks I would be for it.  The longer that we have to wait for hardware, the longer it will take to generate dividends. 

I know the new company's CEO very well so we are guaranteed one of the very first for sale units which he has told me should be ready within four weeks.  It's about the same hash rate of the BFL-Single at 800MH/s but only half the wattage at 40W although costs a bit more at up to $1000 (tho should be less than that [mates rates and all that  Wink ]) but we wouldn't have to pay around £100 ($157) import duties.

Got more details about this new FPGA Huh

I am very interested if this is from a UK company or the like.

Thanks !

Personally, I'm waiting for June with my mining hardware purchases...

Indeed. I am not buying anything till AMD brings out the 7990 and Nvidia Kepler is proven to be exceptional at mining or something along those lines :

http://www.fudzilla.com/home/item/26308-nvidia-gtx-680-pixellized-in-more-detail

At this point is it pretty 90% clear that the low end Nvidia will have 1536 shaders.

I keep thinking about this and if it will mine or not properly ...

my guess it will be as good as a 6950 for mining.. from this quote:
Quote
TDP of around 200W (190W to be precise). When combined with 1536 shader

I am getting excited already :

-no fugly SDK that breaks stuff each new revision
-no damn CPU bug
-no need to have xserver working ( Nvidia is actually used very extensively in GPGPU communities )
-no stupid hardcoded 8 GPU limit
-much better drivers for Linux ( they are now part of Linux foundation ! )

I am not even a fanboy. I just hope they come out with a dual GPU capable of trashing that 7990. I hate not having another option when it comes to GPU mining cards.

Sick and tired of AMD and their bad drivers and quirky software ...
