Which is the primary usage of Amazon AWS FPGA nodes? I mean, in the real life? I have and idea to find such application and build a FPGA-based blockchain around it.
Could it be bioinformatics?

Well, I know that. It is marketing information, but I need some more details. Speaking about genomic research for example - which algorithm and what parameters of solver? Good luck with your research. |

Hey everyone... regarding the ETH Pill... wondering if anyone could answer these questions:
I have a rig with 6x ASUS Strix Gaming A8G: 4x 1070ti & 2x 1080 (the latter with GDDR5X).
I want to use the pill for the 2 1080's but trying to figure out the process order exactly.
Do you start the miner and THEN run the ETHPILL exe? or run the pill first and then start miner?
Also, with this screw anything up with the 4x 1070ti's? on the same system?
Finally, is this a 1-time thing or does the pill need to be run every time you restart the miner or reboot?
I think I can answer half or less than your questions. My understanding is the pill should be executed and then the mining software should be started. My understanding is it should always be running. If you restart the OS, you need to start the pill and then start the mining software. What rs1x said ^^ and you should be ok with other cards. I have a rig with 5x 1080ti and 3x 1060 and it works fine. |

About to expand my farm.. looking at spending somewhere between $20,000-$40,000. Been making spreadsheets and trying to figure out what to buy.. any thoughts/input? My main concern is that Vegas are pretty much 1 trick ponies with the Cryptonight variants. Where nVidia algos seem to be easily ASIC'd. And AMD RX 500s rely heavily on ETH staying PoW.. Spreadsheet:  How do your figures look if you change the 1080ti ETH hashrate to ~55MH/s? I'm getting ~280MH/s on a 5 card rig pulling 1100W using ETHlargement It's a high cost per card but I figure (hope) they'll hold their resale value ok once the next gen is out. I plan to move them to rendering (RNDR token) if algos get ASIC'd. |

@jimmykl Thank you  What Algo are you using on Blazepool ? Standard or Plus or both of them ? I'm using ahashpool plus. Not chosen through testing or anything it has just been the most reliable and provides consistent results. |

Is there any chance for the Pill reduce even more the cards lifespan?
the real question FFS here we go again! perpetuating the MYTH that electronics wear out like some machine! The only thing that is likely to suffer are fans because they are mechanical. Until you can explain at the material level what changes with age, be quiet. 24/7 operation is not a reason. Running at 100% is not a reason (unless you're an idiot you will be under clocking and volting to reduce power) heat cycling is not a reason( for one thing mining gpu aren't cycling, they run at steady temps) So enough with the irrational paranoia, and anyway you will be upgrading before any gpu's run long enough to wear out Baz That's not exactly true. The caps will eventually fail, and they will fail faster at higher temps. I doubt that this ETHlargement will have any significant impact though. This is a good watch: Ask GN 67: Does Mining Hurt GPUs? https://youtu.be/3WWfj7RF_z8?t=6m21sBiggest win for sustained loads: run hardware below power limit spec. Less stress on components than their design ratings = much longer lifespan. If you're really concerned about components find someone who knows their shit and get them to vet the card design. Or someone might have already done it e.g https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KoLWVvHasaw |

First I want to thank the authors for this great tool and for their giving spirit to help the community. I would encourage everyone to donate some or all of their first week or two's increased profits to the developers to promote such releases in the future.
Secondly, I want to add my voice that this tool does indeed work as advertised. I have been running it now on my 1080TI rigs for the past 4 days and can verify that not only does it increase the hashrate as shown in the miner, but also increases the shares submitted to the pool.
My first test of this software was on a smaller 4x1080TI rig I have and the rig's poolside shares went from ~150 per hour on the Ethermine pool to around 190 per hour after using the enlargement tool. This corresponds pretty closely with the rig hashrate going from 140 MH/s to 200 MH/s, or the difference of going from around 35MH/s to 50MH/s per 1080TI.
After having switched my remaining 1080TI rigs over they all displayed similar results, with cards running from 49 to 52 MH/s and increased share count pool-side.
Myself I think some of the haters and disbelievers may have other agendas at play and they get mad when people release such helpful tools to the community, especially for free. I hope the people who are taking advantage of the increased performance of this tool can realize this and not only help cast light on the trolls for what they are, but also to recognize that a small donation will help to promote this type of software in the future.
If you do not choose to donate, realize if that becomes the prevalent attitude, in time the only software available to the public will be either with developer fees, costing you a lot more in the long run than a donation would, or remain in private hands of the big farmers everyone claims to so despise.
Once again to the developers, thank you for this great software as I for one appreciate it.
Well said! 100% with you and donation already sent |

Newbie question, but maybe someone can explain why one would choose to run NemosMiner vs: NiceHash? What is the advantage to run NemosMiner compared to NiceHash? I'm running only 1080ti's if that makes any difference.
I like: - being able to choose between pools
- ability to select a custom miner for an algo
- not having additional fees for using own wallet
- it works well with the monitoring service I use
And I still don't have full trust in NH after the NiceHack. Hi, which Monitoring Service are you using ? Hi @Sackl I use https://ethmonitoring.com/ |

Love the turnaround on the recent YouTube interview.

Hey this is crap. It doesn't work. It's probably a scam. Who knows what they're really doing to my precious rig.
To
Oh maybe my setup wasn't quite configured correctly. I changed something and now it's working properly. But I still have these 'hard hitting questions' prepared.
To
Oh you're a person. We can communicate. You're answering my questions reasonably. I really appreciate the time and effort you've put into making this tool and providing it for free.
Good stuff. Roll on May 25!

Looks like few reviews sad that accepted shares are doesn't change. Can someone confirm that this tool is not just an illusion?
Yes, confirmed. Working fine. Yep +1 it's the real deal. Those 'reviewers' must be on some other medication… |

any good news for our 1080ti?
What do you mine lately?
I am still on ravencoin and enemy miner 1.08 (i earn about 24 € / day) but i am not so sure to continue with it... if you have some good advice, you are welcome
thanks!
€24 for one 1080ti? where? One of their last posts said they had 8x 1080ti ( https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=3038728.msg35840371#msg35840371) so I guess it's €3/card? |

Hi,
the tool looks interesting but it does not increase submitted valid shares which are the important part vs hash rate!
It needs to be integrated with a miner to use the increase in hash rate to increase in valid submitted shares.
total bullshit ... FFS all this bollocks about 'not increasing submitted valid shares' is completely wrong. Stop fucking around with unproven statements, do your own testing and show us the fucking proof. Look, here are 5x 1080 ti mildly overclocked:  Graph legend in case you can't follow: Good = ethlargement running ~56MH/s / card ~220-260 shares total Bad = ethlargement stopped. ~38MH/s / carrd ~140-160 shares total Yes I could've left it running without the pill longer, the shares may have picked up a little as it could have been the bottom of the natural up/down swing of the pool. But it definitely has an impact on the shares poolside! If you're not seeing this I can only guess you are not using the tool correctly or there's something wrong with your pool/brain. |

I tested this on my 1080ti the hashrate gives me around 50mh/s to 53mh/s but the problem the average hashrate still the same as before but the reported hashrate gives me a real hashrate from my rig.
Do you think guys they can release also for 1060 and 1070 and also for other algo?
1. I guess you're trying to say that the hashrate increased but the shares remained the same? That's not my experience. 2. No it's only for cards with unmodified GDDR5X memory: 1080, 1080 ti, Titan XP. The dedicated mining cards already have been tuned, similar to ethlargement, so do not benefit from the pill. |

Must this "pills" work with a specific driver version?
No |

On my EVGA 1080ti FTW3, one of the sensors reaches over 70 degree, I think it stabilized around 73 but then I closed the miner. Actually they were 2 sensors at the same point but in different sides of the GPU, one sensor for the memory and one for the power, but my guess is that the power-related component is being overheated and causes the memory next to it to heat as well. The same problem exists with some Neoscrypt and Equihash miners as well, so it's not just ETHlargement, it might be something with all the 1080TIs or just this specific EVGA's edition. BTW, is there any way to deactivate the effect of the "pill" without restarting the PC? Just closing the console doesn't seem to change anything. PS: Where are my miners! Your tool works great at increasing the hashrate, thanks! I just hope it doesn't have a trojan in but I'm not keeping anything worth stealing anyway.  No temp probs on my EVGA 1080ti SC I'd recommend using a custom fan curve in afterburner or set a higher static fan speed. And add environmental air circulation. The pill effects seem to hang around for a few minutes before disappearing on my rigs ymmv. |
