Look into getting an fpga or ASIC product for mining.
Only ASIC!
FPGA mining, like GPU, will be totally useless  Smiley

No.

Anyway, as other said, in the next months ASIC will be released. And then GPU mining will become useless

On a side note, normal banking too would be fucked by outages and offline. You would not even be able to withdraw your money from a bank without electricity. So what apply to bitcoin also apply to dollars and euros.

"competition"? To me it looks like avalon and bfl use exactly the same asic  Roll Eyes similar prices, similar performance and similar release date  Roll Eyes

Yeah  Undecided Laptop with 2gb graphic card  Shocked Shocked

Should be an Intel HD Graphics family CPU with integrated GPU. It basically re-uses free system RAM as graphics RAM, which is how it arrives at that weird huge number.

It's also totally and completely unsuited to mining.
Yeah, that system is fail, the delay of using normal ram as GPU ram means that the idea is fail.

Lol at people who measure their graphic card by the memory  Cheesy so if it has 4gb it is better?  Shocked

I understand that people do not want to read messages by people they have in ignore. But this does NOT means they can make these messages invisible for EVERYONE

A mean to downvote posts and have post with say "-5" show as hidden/collapsed by everyone with a hide trigger of >-5

Sorry but these suggestions are retarded.

Moderators and not random users should delete posts and ban people! Why the hell should anyone message disappear because "some users" clicked ignore button? So long for discussions, either you are ok with what the other people say or then they downvote you and your message disappear, no matter if it follow every rules and is fine? That would sucks!
Especially in this forum, we have people with tons of different opinions. Who disagree of course will happily downvote a message. But why should it disappear? Because someone don't like it? Meh

2455  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Why is Bitcoin wallet client peer sync so slow on: October 26, 2012, 07:37:10 PM
Because the database system that is used by the client sucks. Future clients will have another system much much faster.

The client must download every block, the "sync" means it download all the blocks. 1 block is created after average 10 minutes. Now, to verify that each block is indeed ok and the header of it is ok with the previous one, it keep reading the blocks and checking things. If you notice your hard disk happily work when the client is syncing. Future clients will make this verify much much faster by optimizing how the client do this.

Anyway, yes, verifying the blocks is required to make sure the blockchain is the right one. Bitcoin is a p2p network after all, and it cannot trust anyone. It must be sure that the blockchain it download makes sense  Cheesy But yes, making the process faster is a good idea.

Anyway there are lightweight clients who do not download the blockchain and simply use one on a server. This of course doesn't mean they can steal your bitcoin!

I still like the idea of a ram intensive algo (eventually ram speed could play a role) maybe combined with something only multi cpu/gpu can solve effectively.
This way you ban botnets and make asic manufacturers/buyers wet eyes.
I still would like to know for what else beside mining an asic or its technology is useful/applicable, maybe it would be smart to invent a technology if this is not the case that would be useful for other computing operations, with multi cpu this would be the case i guess.

"what else beside mining an asic or its technology is useful/applicable"


Uuuhhh do you know that every hardware piece is an "asic"? Your cpu, your graphic card etcetcetc

And do you know that if you make a ram intensive algo with cpu and gpu you can make an asic optimized for it without problems, exactly like now?

Seriously guys at least learn what asic means and how computers work before "suggesting" things  Cheesy

This thread will be locked. Mind your words next time or we have to take further action
Lolwut? You post some screenshots and explain things and the reply is this??

And what they say is false, reducing memory clock here lower my GPU temperature a lot->i can overclock it more or keep the same overclock with a lower temperature.

Oh so dificulty depends on the total of miners Mhas/s, and not on how many hashes done.
Are you joking or what? It's exactly the same thing
