also is it just me or does Litecoin-qt take a really really long time to sync up every time you start? like half a day? Is it necessary to make a litecoin.conf for osx wallets if your not solo mining?

p.s. anychance on getting a EMERALDcoin wallet made? thanks for all the hard work!

You shouldn't need a conf for Litecoin-qt. Mine syncs pretty slowly, but more like 20 minutes than half a day. You may just be connecting to slow peers; one thing you can try is deleting (or moving) the peers.dat file in ~/Library/Application Support/Litecoin, to force the wallet to look for new peers.

I'll add EMERALDcoin to my list!


btw that did the trick!! now more in the 10-20 minutes then 10-20 hours..thanks again!

Anyone else having problems mining this coin?

I couldnt get solo working when it was released but was able to pool mine now I can get cgminer working with either? I was successfully mining @ http://coinworld.us:8887/static/ previously. Emerald client has plenty of connects.

Havent tried solo but http://emd.scryptmining.com Pool seems to be pretty problem free. Got dropped off the server today at 7am Pacific and didnt realize till 1pm so that kinda hurt but seems to be back up and running with no issues at the moment.

Thanks for the tip and of course making these wallets..who needs sleep:)

Is it just me, or does every piece of shit coin had the same thread format? It's like there's a fucking "Generate shitcoin thread for BTC-Talk online" website that does this shit.

at least this is the first new coin to come out in a week or two..i think? Was starting to hurt my head with the amount of useless coins coming out everyday..at least give it a good name people! Emerald may not have a lot of force or much new innovations behind it but something about it doesn't smell as fishy as the others..ill dive in the waters for a bit Wink

Haha yes it's a nice feeling when collecting coins considering the price of LTC just went up but so did the difficulty Tongue If you're planning on running 3 GPU's or more on risers, then you'll probably want to make one of the GPU's use a powered riser. You'll avoid burning out the mobo and possibly the cards in the process from all the power draw. 2 is fine tho, mine are on powered risers but I have not utilized the molex connector on them at this point in time and they seem to be doing great without them. When I do add another GPU I'll definitely be plugging one of the molex's in, the last thing I'd want is to ruin 900+ bucks worth of hardware over a silly power overload Shocked

700kh/s is a great rate to start off with, you'll be even happier once you get all your gear out into the open and are able to sail past 730kh/s with ease. If you're really keen, repaste the GPU Heatsink and you would probably squeeze a bit more out of the card. Wink



changed ratio to 1022/1244 and bam! running at a stable 725 kh/s with 82temp still in case!!! Going to still take it out as a 2nd GPU will be added soon and then it will be a whole new ball game in temp. but yeah..planning on getting powered and well molex im not even sure how to hook that up but that lesson will have to be learned another day. My brain needs a few days off Wink Thanks for your help and everyone elses! If anyone needs a little help on tuning a GIGABYTE 7970 give me a holla

You should change the name to RapidCoin..sounds much better! just sayin
159  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN] MEMEcoin- Exchange, Updated Info and Store Items on: June 22, 2013, 04:30:32 AM
Yeah, last week, since I saw a downward trend, I dumped all of mine too... oh well, at least it's easy to mine, so slowly mining them back now.

jumped back in for a bit as well but honestly i have very little faith in this coin in ever becoming something so its much more of a gamble then say fastcoin or franko which may go just a bit longer imo..well really I just like franko cus there website looks neat and profitability isnt too bad Wink Although everything gets traded into LTC or BTC at my end so it all evens out really.

Quite simply, because risers have a fixed length and the cards would only extend a few inches above the mobo anyway and the longer you make them, the less likely the cards will hash properly or even be detected by the mobo. I read somewhere on this forum that 30cm's is the limit to a PCI-E riser cable. Anymore and the resistance is too great and the card underperforms or fails to be detected. Some people have reported success in daisy chaining a couple together, tho personally my powered risers wouldn't allow the PC to boot if I daisy chained them (2 x risers together). My risers are about 18.5cm long each from tip to toe so going by the 30cm rule, it made sense that the cards failed to initialize correctly despite powering up. This and the fact I'd get ALOT more air flow if i had everything out of the constraints of the case with proper spacing.

Very good points! Theoretically though if you had a shelf inches away you might be able to get away with a 12" Riser coming from the case but then again probably not with it already sunk inches in. So yes..here what your saying and pretty sure I am going to have to take apart an older computer to make that happen. Might not be able to put it back in if I ever wanted to Wink

As for the differences? Well, I'm no expert and without googling the actual answer I'd hazard a guess that it's just transfer rates and shouldn't impact mining speed whatsoever since it's the GPU's themselves that are doing the computations. There is actually a thread or two talking about this since there are a few people wondering how long you can make a riser cable. Maybe someone more knowledgeable in this area could chime in but for the most part, I'd already ordered x16 risers so I chose to stick with them for now. I still have another 2 x4 PCI-E slots available and 2 x1 slots on my mobo for future expansion should I decide to go that route. Having said this, I tried to throw in an old 5770 (flashed to a 6770) in one of the PCI-E x4 slots and both my 7970's hash rate dropped to ~500kh/s. I haven't investigated this any further as of yet but plan to see why this happened eventually.

As a side note, moving air cools and stays cool alot quicker than still air. So as long as you have some kind of air movement along with everything out of the case, then temps will be a non issue for the most part. Infact, take a look at the https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=7216.0 thread. Lots of mining rigs there both open case, rack mounted or full tower setups. I go jelly when I view that thread Cheesy

Thanks for that link! huge help in seeing what everyone else is coming up with and pretty sure i am ready to make my home depot and frys trip soon. As for the 1x and 16x it looks like it really doesn't make too much of a difference from my readings due to amount of power/memory?something? not needed but testing will be a whole nother story as nothing is every as easy as it sounds. Luckily I only need 1 or 2 x16 as the 1x seems to come in handy when trying to connect more then 2 GPU's. I could be mistaken though. I have an old 5770 on my Mac Pro but couldnt get it above 50 kh/s no matter what I did. Instead it spits 160 mh/s for BTC which isnt much but can leave it on over night to gain 60 cents..ha!
So pretty happy just rolling with my steady 700 kh/s right now on a 925/1275 & tc8192 with temp 82-84 until I can bring it out of the case and ramp it up higher. On a 1045/1500 it shoots way past 750 kh/s now but temps creeping past 88/89 so I think I can live with 700 being in a metal heat box. Pretty sure if i keep it below 85 no damage will be done right? Thanks again for the advice..feels lovely to be collecting coins now..ahhhh
