PM sent.  Very interested in testing I believe I have a few good testing platforms that you mentioned.

asrock h81pro motherboard.

I highly suggest another motherboard.  Look at all the problems if you plan on using un-powered risers.  The motherboard is good price I never did get over 5 to work with it(had 2 motherboards of them sadly).  

Emailed them about it asked for compatability, and asked about 6 cards..... they sent back their "lab" was able to get 6 260's to power.   They didn't have 6 280x of any brand to test I believe most they sent was a test with 2 of them.   This motherboard is hype.

On watts I split it sadly between two of these boards and have 3 cards running with 1000 watts powering motherboard, cards, ssd, etc.  Using a Corsair RM1000.

Thanks for all your group buys.  Hope to see more.

Always a great person to deal with, never once regretted a group buy with SSB.  Always went above and beyond.

Depending on price and how well they work I know I would be interested.  My dream is to be able to SSH to my rigs power when away on my phone.  

Personally I want a product that does it like you mentioned I really don't like building things with electricity.  There are some expensive options and DIY options.  But if you come up with a decent priced pre-made option that would be great for me.  I have a feeling for a few others.  Show us a prototype please!

Also all kinda depends on price.  It's one of those things if it cost's more then a bit of downtime costs then its hard to justify.
14386  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Pools (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN][AUTO-SWITCH] Profit-switch auto-exchange pool: CleverMining.com on: February 23, 2014, 03:36:57 AM
I loved the pools nice charts, and great stats.

This pool over promises.  It says now front "All technical problems solved!".... seems all pools have some problems even if minor but they are 100 percent!

I used this pool for a little over a day.  On my computer i thought i was not doing bad on rejects when i checked online on their site a day later (yes i take blame for not looking at their side earlier) it was around 20 percent rejects.  

With the huge percent of rejects it basically negates any positive mining.  Personally I would have been better to pick a alt coin even if not the best and mined it directly.   When was the last time "Last 24 hours: 0.01414 BTC/day per MH/s (160% Litecoin mining profitability)" was updated seems like it has been not updated on purpose. 

I feel the front page should add a overall stat of rejects, show profit percentage over LTC AFTER average reject rate.  Sadly I liked the site a lot, but the pool I see going down in power.

Ok, so I have 5 of the above cards on windows 8.1 with CGwatcher and CGminer, but am currently only mining (or attempting to!) with 4 for the time being.

Last night it was mining for 30 minutes @ 800kHs which although not as good as I want, it was something, then I rebooted to make move it and now nothing.

Today I can't even get it to mine, it just crashes a few seconds after it starts mining, any help is greatly appreaciated!

Can you post more specs of your rig, and what your setup is?(how your powering, risers, is one card on board?)

And that motherboard can be a pain to say the least.  Just set up two rigs with motherboard, was not as smooth as other motherboards I had used.
14388  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: [3 LTC BOUNTY] Can not get my rig to work a week so far on: February 20, 2014, 04:02:01 AM
Use 8 gig of ram.  If only using 4 gig you are asking a lot from it.  

If you are trying to power 3 risers, and MB power to power 3..... sounds like a lot for a 750.  Do you have a bigger PSU you can use?  

OP here is what i mean, so many ppl have clueles ideas.

I use 2gb ram in every system, why waste money.  I never use hdds why waste money.  I never listen to people like this guy above.
Speaking of clueless how is your investment advice on MOON going?
Moon, well people like you should stay out of Moon.



I also use 2gb ram in windows system and visa versa testing shows exact same hash rates.  Sorry, dont think your correct on this, using the world overkill to what? the pocketbook?




See you only quoted parts.  You saved 10-15 bucks, chances are less if you watch deals.  In a computer with 6 cards .... that is nothing.  At least i gave information from my successful rigs, and did not troll him for money like you.  With windows 8.1 and 6 cards using 2 gig is a horrible idea.

Your advice is like moon.... it just keeps dropping.   But maybe I'm wrong and you should spend a few thousand trying to saving 10-15 bucks and have a possible headache, and that moon is not constantly dropping.  Maybe moon isn't twords bottom of coinwarz currently.

Depends on what you are running.  At points he mentions Windows 8.1.... if you are using BAMT obviously it would be less.  Is 8 overkill yes, but for what I'm making on a working operation it's worth it to me.  Ram is cheap now days.  I can run other processes without worrying a bit about lowering productivity.  Try running Windows 8.1 with 6 cards and 2 gig ram and tell me how your mining goes.

I think someone is having a bad day from "and as your desperate enough, you will end up contacting me, and beware I am not nice, and I will require more than zero bounty before I begin.  Not doing that shit again, have had 2 ppl promise bounties form this board worked 6 hours one guy, and 5 days other guy.  Got zero in return.  complete bs."   I threw out my ideas for free..... notice I didn't put somewhere to send coins or say he will contact me.

14391  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Question regarding difficulty and scrypt ASICs on: February 19, 2014, 02:43:38 PM
Hi all,

I've been working on a little plan to get into the scrypt mining game, which I've spread over 5-6 months. It'll end up with me having an approx 5 MHash miner for a cost of approx 1200 FIAT and about 2 BTC. These figures are based on starting out, investing FIAT til I hit a certain point, and reinvesting BTC after that. The link to the project is in my sig, but please understand that it has not had any updates this week as RL has barged in and I have to prioritise Smiley

However, I have 2 difficulties which I cannot factor in, and I hope the community might help.

1) Difficulty - is there any way to reliably project difficulty? Or is it solely based on the hashing power of the network? I realise that the new coins are much much more volatile in this regard, but say for example a reasonably established one like Litecoin? It'd make my life easier for sure if I could put this into my figures.

2) ASICs - I'm sure alot of people have seen the new Scrypt ASICs from LightningASIC. For about the same price as what I intend to spend, I could end up with a (maybe) comparable scrypt hash power for less electricity usage, but I am trying to predict the uptake and state of affairs in a few months. Let me clarify:

Plan a - my first plan, somewhat simplistic. Invest gradually in GPUs over a 5 month period, ending up owning a 6 GPU rig which would offer about 5 MH.

Plan b - reactionary plan when I saw the ASIC news. Same as above except "cash out" on the GPU rig and "cash back in" on ASIC miners, again reinvesting whatever BTC I had managed to scrape in the meantime.

Plan c - Go ASIC from the start, putting my same investment plan into effect but for Dualminers rather than GPUs. This would be slightly slower to pick up than GPUS, so i'd take me about 6 months to get to the same stage.

Anyone have any advice or guidance?

Thanks!

Rit.

You wont get much spreading it out over 5-6 months.  If you do GPU go now, they will have some worth after. 

If you are investing that slow might think about just investing in coins directly.

WARNING I just got too many failed login tries, please wait a few minutes after I tried to put in my password and sign in 1 time!!!!

I guess I must be under brute force login attack, I see others had this problem yesterday.   I haven't signed in, or tried to sign in, in 2 days.

Also experienced this.  Had not logged in for a day or so and got message about failed login tries.

I am working on a official review of this motherboard.  Lets just say it has not went well.... I have been asking them questions through email seeing their claims vs actual performance.   I am waiting on a few more emails before I do it.   I asked if I could include their emails in my review .... I have a feeling that request will be turned down.  Roll Eyes

Slick looking interface.  Cant wait to see these in wild.  Hoping for these to be one of my next purchases after my 7 new 280s are paid off from mining.
14395  Other / CPU/GPU Bitcoin mining hardware / Re: Does the H81/H61 Pro BTC Need Powered Risers? on: February 13, 2014, 05:35:15 AM
Stupid question...

Can I powered risers without plugging them into power? Will they operate just as unpowered risers would?

No make sure to plug them in.  I wish we could as i would just use USB risers for everything. 

A update was able to get ALL working.  One card still runs slower then others 600ish isntead of 700ish.  But much better then the 80 i was getting.  Turned out i disabled and then enabled devices one by one it worked.  So far 5+ hours up and running.

Will be splitting between two rigs tomorrow adding another card. 

So motherboard can do 6 unpowered with a lot of messing around.  Looking back 5 with powered usb risers might have been way to go.  But I cant complain with them mining away dodge.

Having all in one you get to see the successful ones and failed ones.  I personally like to see both, allows you to make best decision.

Am now the proud owner of two Multipool.US shares.
https://cryptostocks.com/securities/86 shows its still on hold pending securities compliance.

It says that but it is being bought/sold still it appears you look in history.  Maybe they are not issuing more stocks its just the ones already out there?  Not sure whats going on with it.

Have any advice for me.  I would love to try your pool out seeing it.  I cant seem to connect to the pool, it seems to hang when trying to connect.

stratum+tcp://us.dogepool.net:2222 is correct right?
14399  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Best GPUs for minning on: February 10, 2014, 10:03:34 PM
A lot depends on what your wanting.   How much are you wanting to spend?  Is there a certain amount of hashing or watts you want?

And some just flat depends on what is in stock on GPU's.  They are still out on a lot of models at many places. (and yes there is ofcourse always ebay but for RMA i like to have from a store)

Liquid nitrogen... is a little overboard on cooling unless you live on the sun.

Guys, quick question for you multipool pros out here...


Do any of you use multipool.us and just hold the coins?

I don't know what to do, Ive been mining for less then a week with multipool and have acquired many different coins, should I just hold them for ever or should I be selling to btc/ltc daily?


What do you guys think?

All depends if you believe in long term of that coin, keeping it can lead to huge profits Dodge is one of the most recent to really take off.  Other coins have went up and down, but I am happy I sold. 

You can always do both cash some into BTC which is more stable, normally.  And save some of what you mine.
