The "GO" button after entering my wallet address does nothing for me.  I can't see my wallet.  Can you tell me the URL to call a wallet?

What screws are included with the motherboard?

Need to know since I am going to mount motherboard risers on the aluminium rig.

Cases come with screws, not motherboards.

Miners just need to resist buying GPUs at these outrageous prices. Things will calm back down once those that aren't as dedicated fade away.

Dual boot to a second copy of Windows that runs the miner. Don't have any personal information on that instance of Windows.

Yes, but IMHO the documentation is lacking.

Man I love your idea!
And I think to the nvOC should be added some fee for guys working on this project at lest 0.001%.
Because you spend lots of time etc.
It has to pay off, me thinking
 Cool

Arch Linux is a great idea -- I've been experimenting with it on my rig -- but it will take some work as the instructions I have found for implementing the NVIDIA proprietary driver are lacking.

Yep, don't buy them.

Hybrid cards still have to dissipate the same amount of heat from the GPU, memory, and VRMs, except that it's done through the radiator and fan instead of just a fan.  Although your monitoring will show the card is "running cooler," your environment won't be noticeably different as the same energy is being expelled regardless of how you do it.

They'll payoff just as fast as any other card that is the same class and is similarly priced.

Yeah just generally the water cooling components take up a lot more room so it's not economical on space.
31  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Risers....are the dimensions the same?? on: January 18, 2018, 04:41:51 PM
They are close but not quite the same.
32  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: ASUS B250 Mining Expert on: January 18, 2018, 04:40:36 PM
Celeron is crap.  Go for minimum of a Pentium.  You'll get dual core and four cores with hyperthreading.

Had same issue, ALL RISERS WERE BAD!!!  Seriously, I've RMAd over 18 risers already.

Wow, that sux!  The first seven risers I have tried have all been good.  I guess I am lucky!
34  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: What is the most profitable altcoin to mine on CPU only? on: January 15, 2018, 08:50:19 PM
My guess would be Monero.
35  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: The right CPU (for mining and for the mother board socket)? on: January 12, 2018, 03:21:12 PM
CPU mining is generally not worth it.  I have an i7-5930K 6-core Intel CPU and it barely earns a few pennies a day.

Regarding motherboards, generally if it has a Socket 1151, it will use the latest CPUs, but it may need a BIOS update, sometimes even before it will boot.  Just check the specs for the board(s) you are interested in and it should clearly be stated.  If you want to avoid the BIOS updating issues, get a later model.

Best of luck to ya!

CDW told me they were on worldwide back order until March, then I found one the next day from Newegg.

As of 9:00AM here I'm at:

Miner 1 - 2x1070 - 0.00147459 btc - ahashpool
Miner 2 - 2x1070 - 0.00091089 btc - zpool

That's roughly a 40 hour run time on both pools.  Zpool did better than the first 16 hours but it's still 38% less than Ahashpool.

Ahash's payout is too high for a smaller miner like me.

Can you take and post a photo of your bridging pins for type of PSU ? plz

I like to know how to use server PSU for mining too.

Indeed, but any SSD should be fine.  Specifically what SSD have you seen that doesn't get the job done?

Specifically usb boot drives, they will never be like good ssd's, there are many bad ssd's that make your cpu to work hard. On a system with 6 gpu's even bad ssd's will be fine, heck even usb boot drives might be.

I agree, and I'm not a fan of USBs as boot drives.  I prefer to stick it on an SSD.  They are so inexpensive now when you find them on sale.  I am finding that a tiny one won't do due to the swap requirements of some algos, so I am glad I have a 120 GB on my rig right now.

In the end you will be exchanging something for something else. I prefer a better ssd than a better processor, but you can also go with a better cpu than a better ssd. Not bottlenecking my cpu is key for me. Also a better ssd will make my cpu to work less and use less electricity. I guess is a choice in the end.
