You answered two out of five questions that Philip asked you. Seeing that you pasted a basically irrelevant image, I'm assuming you have no idea what components your PC has. Look them up. Then come back and we'll try to answer your previous questions for you.

I'm amazed as to how hard one has to search to find a thread that is more troll than this one.
183  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Most power hungry algorithms for Nvidia? on: July 06, 2017, 01:11:57 AM
Hello,

Basically, the topic says it all. Which are the most power hungry algorithms for Nvidia cards? Is there anywhere I can see which ones require more power than others - without testing myself?

Thanks!

If you want open cases your best bet is to just buy a bunch of garage shelves locally or if you want specifically designed aluminium frames then you can also order the parts locally cut to whatever sizes you want them with corner/elbow elements.

Or if you really want to done it cheaply, just get some thin wood (batten?/slat?) and build it yourself.

Thank you for the suggestions but if I wanted to do it myself, I would've done it myself. I have more than enough to do with my other companies so I don't have time to start building cases for mining. Time is money.

Maybe i can help you, i build cases and am based in germany. For Pics/Prices/.. PM if you are interested.

I'm sorry, if you want to market yourself you're going to have to do more than create an account and reply to a single thread.
186  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Where to purchase cases from EU? on: July 04, 2017, 08:40:55 PM
Hello,

Does anyone know of any reputable supplier of cases from the EU? I know the US has a couple (that I know of) but the shipping cost is extremely high due to the heavy weight.

I've purchased 12 cases from ethereumminer.eu, however, there's a lot of missing pieces so out of those 12 I can only build 6 of them. I've of course contacted them but haven't heard anything for two weeks and the only reply I got two weeks ago was basically "sorry, new people, will send asap" (which I assume they blamed new employees or something).

I also know of mineshop.eu but their case won't work for me. Partly because it's not stackable and partly because it looks like crap.

We really need some new proper cases because we've got a lot of rigs on the floor and on tables right now.

Thanks

As previously stated, you should mine in a pool.
188  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: No monero after 1 Month of mining? on: July 04, 2017, 10:33:41 AM
You need to provide at least some information before anyone will be able to help you.
189  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: 8 pin to dual 8 pin (6+2) on: June 23, 2017, 08:39:30 PM
No, 1080 Ti's require 2 x 8 pins and the G2 1300W comes with 6 VGA ports on the PSU and 2 x 6+2 + 6 cables and 4 x 6+2 cables

That's 5 x 8 pins total (they might as well come with only 8 pin single cables) without converters meaning it can only handle exactly 3 pieces of 1080 Ti's.
I have 36x 1080 Ti's (4 different models) and 30 of them (3 different models) are using 8+6 pins. Only one of the four models use 8+8 pins.
190  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Pools (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN][POOL] Mining Pool Hub - Multipool. Multialgo, Auto Exchange to any coin. on: June 23, 2017, 04:29:47 PM
Has the auto exchange feature been disabled? It's been more than 24 hours since the last auto exchange was made from DGB, SIA and more to ETH.

The amount of coins credited to the auto exchange keep increasing but it never ends up in my ETH balance.
191  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Mix riser power from different PSU's? on: June 23, 2017, 08:16:14 AM
Does anyone know how power from risers/cables are distributed? I mean, let's say a 1080 Ti uses 250W and has one 8-pin and one 6-pin.

Will it draw 225W from the cables and the remaining 25W from the risers or will it be pulling 75W from the risers at all times and the remaining 175W from the cables? Or perhaps something else?
192  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Semi-ASIC project for ASIC proof coins on: June 23, 2017, 01:57:41 AM
It's an unstable and risky market, and people only love to share success story, never how much they lost.
You don't hear how much people lose from GPU mining these days because people don't lose from GPU mining these days. With so many coins to choose from,  there's always coins that brings in good money - especially now when they're at extra high value. But even long before this current boom, it was still very profitable.

So no, you don't hear about how much people lose from GPU mining these days because people don't lose from GPU mining these days.
193  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Mix riser power from different PSU's? on: June 23, 2017, 01:24:15 AM


I'm having some issues now because pretty much ALL power supplies at 1000W or more are sold out all over Sweden, UK and Germany. So I'm now thinking about powering rigs using 2x 850W PSU's.

Your image suggests that the risers needs to be powered by the same PSU that powers the motherboard (for some reason).

Would it be okay to power the rig like this:


That way all risers are powered by the same PSU as in your image. However, that PSU also powers one GPU. The second PSU would only power the remaining five GPU's.

On the other hand I'm reading a lot of different answers. A lot of people are saying that they're dividing the power with one PSU powering 3 risers and 3 GPU's (and the second the rest + motherboard) while others say that you can't do that (though I can't find a single post properly explaining why). So many different opinions and answers.

While you are correct in that it's a terrible deal, you were the one purchasing the pack in the first place. You could've just bought components somewhere else.
195  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Mining LBRY with 1080 ti on: June 21, 2017, 11:13:27 PM
Sounds like the rest could still be unconfirmed on suprnova. Check your unconfirmed coins on your dashboard.
196  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Is mineshop.eu legit? on: June 17, 2017, 05:25:48 AM
I ordered eight risers from them a few weeks ago. Took a week to arrive to Sweden. They all work so far.
197  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Buy case from EU? on: June 14, 2017, 01:25:44 PM
Anyone else know of anyone trustworthy here on bitcointalk.org or a shop that make and sell stackable cases?

And EVGA G2/G3/GQ 1300W should be enough.
199  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: best graphics cards? on: June 14, 2017, 05:48:06 AM
Nvidia GTX 1060 3GB or 6GB are about your best option out of what is more readily available to put together a rig ASAP with all the same cards, at a resonable cost. BBT posted a video of the 6 card rig he built with the PNY GeForce GTX 1060 3GB XLR8 OC Edition

165+ GPU
1000+ MEM
~23.5mh ETH and ~268 SOL/s ZEC each @ ~60W per card.

Dag won't reach 3GB until early next year, so you should be good until then. The only problem with the 3GB cards you won't be able to dual mine effectivly.
Hey ive been in bitcoin for a while but honestly im pretty new to altcoin mining, could you explain what you said about the dag reaching 3gb, also dual mining. Should I wait for the dedicated miner card that nvidia is coming out with very soon?

The mining cards that Nvidia will be realsing will be based on the 1060 from what I have read. Mainly just without a video output. I think performance will be similar, maybe ~10% - 20% better and probably cheaper since they only have a 3 month warranty. The Dag is the dataset needed to be stored in memory for the POW mining algorithm used by Ethereum. It grows in size by roughly 0.73x per year. Current size is ~2.1GB and once it exceeds the VRAM on the card, it can no longer proceses the transactions required for mining. Dual mining is a feature where you can mine two diffrent POW algorithms at the same time, therefore incressing the efficiency of mining.
Thank you! does the difficulty increase as more miners/higher hashrates come in similar to bitcoin? Wow ive never heard of dual mining, so you could get almost double your profit, as long as the altcoin has similar profits? Does it run slower or can this cause overheating on your hardware?
Yes, difficulty increases the more miners mine that coin. No, you can't get double profits but you can get a bit extra. It will cover the power cost and then some (depending on GPU and power costs) but you won't get close to double.

Check out Claymore's ETH miner, that's the only dual miner available and only supports a few select coins.
200  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: 1060 vs 1070 mining rig on: June 14, 2017, 05:24:28 AM
don't buy cheap card that hash low 1060 is not good now, buy expensive oen that have higher density and hashrate because the profit is very high roi is fast

Get 6x 1080 Ti for best density and no need for extra components. That's what I ordered for six rigs.

how do you power that with dual psu or single 1500watt? is that enough?
1500W would probably be fine if you under volt them but I don't really care about power so I'll be overclocking them and use a separate 2400W server PSU (2400W is way too much but they're not that expensive anyway).
Where do you get those server PSUs? I have never heard of using that for GPU mining.

You still need a regular PSU to power the motherboard, CPU etc though.
