I would hope so if I paid almost twice the price of a 570. Sounds like you're trying to justify your purchase because all the AMD cards were out of stock. Or you couldn't figure out how to flash a bios and get 29 Mh/s stable.

nvidia bios are encrypted.  Good luck modifying them.

Ouch.. Well that sux.
Funny how i love n coal country but have super high electricity.

mining now with sapphire rx 550 4gb something like 7-8MHs eth, stock settings /zec 70, xmr 250/

Do you have a fire suppression system?

Mine is keep anything flammable away from the rigs, give them space...not much of a system.

What have to done to deal with chance of a fire?

Ahhhh! Thank you. Right now I'm mining Verge, and running about 22mh/s. In 8hrs last night I got 2 blocks myself in a pool. So gonna test the waters again with solo lol

How does this work? Wouldnt the circuit breaker and the copper wiring pretty much melt at that much kwh?

hi all,
i am new to bitcoin mining, after reading many and many topics i found that electricity is one of the major factors to make mining profitable. i have free electricity (legit way) and some computers (10 maybe with AMD Radeon HD 6450 as graphic card and i3/i5 cpu), so, is there anyway to gain profit from that?
any advice will be greatly appreciated.

Hi everyone, I've caught interest in cryptocurrencies a while ago, but I only read and thought about it.

Now I've decided to give it a try on my current oldish rig, just to get a bit more familiar with it, and possible gain some change.
I'm on windows 10, latest drivers, with an XFX 7950 mining with Claymore's dual miner for ETH +DCR/SIA etc. (version 9.3).

I'm mining in dual mode, Ethereum and Decred, and my hashrate is pretty low, around 10.5 Mh/s for ETH and 325 Mh/s for DCR, where I should be getting around 16-18 for ETH, and much more for DCR (I can't find exactly how my card is supposed to perform here, but apparently more than 1000 Mh/s).

Now, I've already tried rolling back drivers to 15.2, or whatever is the version that Claymore's miner is suggesting, but it didn't change a thing.
I've also been mining on the same pools (nanopool for ETH and Suprnova for DCR) for a couple of days now, but the rate hasn't increased even slightly.
Also overclocked the gpu a bit to squeeze more performance out of it, around 1025 core and 1450 mem.

Is there anything else that I can do to increase my hashrate, or is it actually where it should be?

I'd rather not use a dedicated OS for mining, since I'm using my only desktop rig to just "get something" when I'm not around to use it, but maybe a docker could help?

Thanks in advance

Can you please provide a link for us on newegg for those cards they "already had some recently"

Hello guys,

I was wondering on something and need your input:
Let say you have 120*8GPU rigs (Big initial investment) -->1060/1070 you name it.

You would be almost sure to be able to mine the equivalent of 150$ a month/rig --> not talking about Eth, any altcoin.

With current hardware, do you think it would be sustainable to do at least 150$/day with a 8 GPU rig until at least mid 2018, with any altcoin?
Difficulty should not be a problem as the target is "only" to reach 150$ equivalent. Any possible way, switching currency, going NiceHash etc...

So it would be 120*150$= 18 000$/month

Thanks

Hi guys,

Probably i'm gonna start soon the first amd rig but i'm still choosing the gpu and i'm a bit confused about the choice;

These are the gpu that i can take:

-ASUS STRIX RX580 8G-GA 8GB
-ASUS 8GB RX580-DUAL
or wait weeks for the sapphire (580 8GB)

Which i should choose and why?

Thanks

ps. i know that probably around september amd and nvidia will release dedicated hw

Hello guys, i have a problem with Nvidia Tesla eth mining. I have 6 of Nvidia Tesla c2075 on different pc's and when i start Claymore miner i got an error. Other miners close on DAG calculating. Does anyone know how to solve it? There is the log:

Those the single fan ITX ones?

Im after some help regarding finding out what kind of memory certain 1060 cards have before i buy them as i would prefer not to have the dreaded hynix memory.

So can anyone tell me what memory the following cards have please?

MSI GTX1060 OCV1

Gigabyte GTX1060 WF2 (GV-N1060WF2OC-6GD)

Gigabyte GTX1060 G1 Gaming (GV-N1060G1 Gaming-6GD V2)

PNY GTX1060 OC Gaming 6GB

MSI GTX1060 Armor 6G OC

MSI GTX1060 Gaming X 6G

If anyone has any personal experience woth these cards about hashrate with ETH please comment.

Thanks.

But you will still need to add money to get the 1070.

I've been telling everyone the same thing but apparently no one can compute basic math.

"Yes lets sell our AMD gpus today for $300 which make $5/day so we can buy a $600 GPU which makes $4/day and in 6 months it will make me $0.50/day instead of the $0.33/day we would of made with the AMD gpu we've sold".
