I have a single 1050Ti (MSI GAMING X) and it sits at 195 Sol/S with the following settings:  As to the issue with 1050Ti's not reporting power usage, that was deliberately removed by nvidia from their drivers starting several months ago. The reason being that there is a known issue with the power usage reporting circuitry on the 1050Ti's. |

I got my 10% right on time. Every morning after the payout to my local NH wallet, I immediately transfer to my Coinbase account for 0% fee.  So if they get hacked again, at worst, I loose 1 day worth of mining, no big deal. 0.005 BTC is like $45, so I can certainly understand there needing a be a minimum threshold like that, given the BTC transmit fees these days. |

It seems it is from OC settings, try and see what happens with 0 OC. Also because you mixed different types of gpus on the same rig, intensity is also problematic. try to lower all cpu, memory and intensity and also use EWBF because has a similar hasd rate on equihash.
Miner02 has six identical Zotac 1060 3GB cards in it. Miner09 has six identical EVGA 1060 3GB cards in it. So those 2 rigs have identical cards, as do most other rigs, but yes, there are a few exceptions. I have dialed back to 0 OC now and will run like that to see if the issue goes away. I'll also give EWBF a shot. I was running that before DSTM came out. EWBF seems to have been abandoned by its author, which is the main reason I switched. Thanks! |

I think there might be a bug in the "GPU settings" feature. When I look at my miners here, I have them all arranged in the order I want, and I have "Set name" on all my GPU's to what I want:  However, when I select all my GPU miners and then go to GPU Settings, I get this:  So for almost all my rigs, the GPU model is missing, and the sort order does not match what I have in the miner view. Also, I'm only doing Equihash using DSTM 0.5.8 right now. And I have my clocks set to pretty conservative values, but on my 1060 rigs, DSTM will still lock up on occasion and AM is unable to do anything about it. Examples:    I have my 1060 rigs dialed all the way down to +100 Core and +450 memory now (at 75% power). When I was running nvOC, I could do +130 core and + 600 memory all day long, so I'm not sure what's up. I'll keep reducing the clocks until it becomes stable I suppose. It will often run for a good 24 hours right now before it hangs as shown above. It sure would be nice if AM would be able to detect this and restart DSTM. |

I can help with that. Your solution didnt work for me either. Afterburner remote server just didnt start with windows startup. How I sorted it out is: 1. install msi afterburner, go to settings and check, "start with windows" and "start minimized". 2. download msi afterburner remote server, put it somewhere, for example, in C:\Program Files\ etc.... 3. go watch this tutorial how to make programs start on startup https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3krml2Hm8Sk4. at one point, when he talks about "trigger", "at log on", "delay it by 30s", dont delay it. Let it run straight away. 5. go here: https://www.tenforums.com/tutorials/69693-enable-disable-startup-delay-windows-10-a.html6. download Disable_Startup_delay.reg, or do manual registry edit. Run that Disable_Startup_delay.reg. 7. Now restart pc, all should start now with windows, both Msi afterburner and remote server. Thanks! I applied the above on one of my miners and it worked perfectly! Now I just need to apply it to all the rest of them. |

How to I get the GPU model to show next to each card under GPU settings. Some of my miners seem to have it working by default:  And others are completely blank:  I have defined a number of GPU profiles and have them associated with GPU's on various mining hosts. I have a total of 12 Managed Miners at this point, and they all share the following path and credentials:  Despite that, after a restart, neither Afterburner nor Afterburner Remote Server appears to be running. So I have to RDP into each miner and manually start those to apps, before I'm able to access GPU settings from my host running AM. The AM Remote Agent is of course also installed on all the miners, and it starts the mining program(s) just fine and I can reboot the remote computers just fine. But, like I said, neither Afterburner nor Afterburner Remote Server appears in the system tray. The GPU's do start mining with the correct clock and power values that are defined in Afterburner on each rig, but the tray icon is not there, so I can't make adjustments from AM without first going to each rig. Each managed miner is running latest Win 10 Pro and the only login account that exists on each computer, is my Microsoft Account, so that is the Remote Windows account I specify under Options/MSI Afterburner as per the above screen shot. And all the miners are set to automatically login with my MS Account credentials. Love the program, but these little annoyances are driving me nuts! |

Are you the guy that Vosk interviewed for his YouTube channel? If so, you're doing amazing things over there!!! Loved that video!
Thanks. Yes, that was me.  I have since switched to using Awesome Miner as my front end, but continue to mine the NiceHash Equihash pool using zm 0.5.8 miner. Much nicer having control of all my miners from a single pane. |

Yes indeed. Just processed mine. Now I just need need my payment from yesterday. At least they are making progress. I'll stay on MPH for the time being though.

I am almost sure they are HODL'ing yesterday's altcoins before selling. So far it's paying off because alt coins are going back up right now. They figure what they are thinking "why sell at -30% when it will go up 30% the next day.. "
well, if the dip continues, they are fucked. And that could very well be why they did not make the daily payout today, nor the 10% payback from the hack. For all I know, their could be running on very thin margins right now... |

I went to place an order for the following:
B8PLUS 4U rack chassis (includes free shipping)
B8PLUS motherboard
2200W Server PSU
4GB SO_DIMM
120GB M-SATA
I figured the 4 smaller items would have been thrown into the chassis and not incur additional shipping. Instead, another $50 was being added for shipping those other items.
So there is no "package deal" where those "add on items" are included with the chassis at no extra shipping cost?
Thanks
@octominer So if we purchase the chassis with free shipping, there is no shipping break on the other components? I guess $50 shipping on mobo and psu isn't all THAT bad from China, but since the chassis ships free and is by far the largest and heaviest, I think you should offer a shipping deal to users that wants to order an entire setup and just throw their GPU's in and start mining... |

I only have UPS's on my Network Equipment and Burst Coin miner. Everything else is just set to auto start in BIOS as has been mentioned.
I do have a whole house surge protector though, and all my rigs are being feed with 240V for better efficiency.

I mean if you are cashing out daily from what you are mining, the most you could lose is 0.01btc right? not really much.
In my case I pull in about 0.03btc each day on NH. So right now, that is what I'd be out if they don't pay me for yesterday. I switched all my rigs over the mph until NH pays me for yesterday. I have done comparisons in the past between NH and MPH, and with NH now offering 0% fees to Coinbase, they edge out MPH in my most recent testing. Of course it all depends on the market, what coin to auto exchange to on MPH, etc. I did apples to apples, auto exchanging to BTC. NH is nice if you want a steady cash flow (NH >0%> Coinbase >1.5%> Checking Account) without speculating on which coins to hold, etc. |

Yeah and looking at their facebook page, it looks like nobody has been paid yet today. Probably related to the fact they they are supposed to pay back the first 10% of what was lost/stolen during the hack.
Their page shows "maintenance mode" on and off.

I'm looking at a similar heat load. Been looking at these 10,500 CFM fans for around $400: https://www.northerntool.com/shop/tools/product_200422375_200422375200 CFM per 1,500 watt miner means I could do about 50 GPU rigs or ASIC's with one of those fans, as long as I have unrestricted airflow. So even if I loose 50% to intake filters and what not, that still leaves 5,000 CFM of air flow. 5,000 / 200 x 1,500 = 37,500 watts my miners can put out. The fan above uses 3.5A at 230V, so that is about 800 watts. That's about 13 CFM per watt, so quite efficient. Any negatives to using fans such as the above?

Is it possible to configure an external managed profit miner running Linux (nvOC for example)?
I was hoping to at least be able to call scripts via ssh to change the "coin" on the nvOC rig and then restart the miner, but I'm not seeing how to do that.
I looked under rules and I don't see any triggers related to profit switching that would then allow me to create an action to ssh a "coin change" to a Linux miner.
Is there a trick I'm missing that allows this functionality? There are no profit switching triggers for rules currently in AM. It has been a requested feature. You can setup the scripts to manually switch as an action though. You'd need to setup the SSH scripting through putty or plink as in this guide: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/39361444/automating-command-script-execution-using-puttySo, in theory, you could use AM to manually run your user-defined actions to call putty so that it can execute some commands (as per nvoc's documentation https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1854250.msg19503300#msg19503300). When you are in your miner view, there is quick access to these Actions in the bar at the top. If nothing else, you will be prepared with all of your Actions defined if some profit switching triggers get added in AM later, or someone offers a plugin to do so. There is a C# script interface for the trigger where you could define your own profit switching trigger, but that functionality would have to come outside of AM. Any plans for a remote agent for Linux? Patrike has mentioned that is could be a possibility, but I think that's going to take a bit of time... mostly because no two linux distros are the same. I don't envision that a remote agent for a "roll your own" linux system would be supportable. Patrike would have to offer his own linux distro that he knows and can program around to incorporate the remote agent and known paths for the mining software and settings. Can you imagine all the posts here with "I can't figure out how to set firewall settings in Linux to allow remote agent communication", or "how do you overclock in linux"... all of which would have nothing to do with AM. So right now I'm just using AM to monitor my nvOC rigs, which is ok, but I was hoping for more. Also, I'm running DSTM 0.5.8 on the nvOC rigs with API/telemetry enabled, but all it is pulling back is very basic info about the GPU's on each rig. See below:
So I take it this is a limitation of DSTM?
Not all mining software will expose those values through their API. Thanks for the answers! Not exactly what I was hoping for, for at least now I know. I'm still learning AM and I might throw Win10 on a rig or two to see how it goes. The rigs all have 240GB SSD drives (for virtual memory for GPU's which can be as high as 99GB) at and least G4400 CPU's, so they are capable of running windows. There looks to be excellent support for restarting remote windows miners when they misbehave, which they will. |

I got 3 rigs with PRIME Z270-A mobos, and they all have 9 GPUs (2 are 9x1080Ti and 1 is 9x1070). I have run all 3 rigs on both Windows (latest fall edition) as well as nvOC. No problems with either. This is how I have my BIOS configured on these rigs: Advanced/Platform Misc Configuration - Everything Disabled
Advanced/System Agent (SA) Configuration/Graphics Configuration/Leave alone
Advanced/System Agent (SA) Configuration/Graphics Configuration/DMI/OPI Configuration / DMI Max Link Speed = Gen2
Advanced/System Agent (SA) Configuration/Graphics Configuration/PEG Port Configuration / Gen2, Gen2, Auto
Advanced/PCH Configuration/PCI Express Configuration/Gen2
Advanced/PCH-FW Configuration/PTT Configuration/PTP aware OS = Not PTP Aware
Advanced/Onboard Devices Configuration/HD Audio Controller = Disabled
Advanced/Onboard Devices Configuration/M.2_1 Configuration = Auto
Advanced/Onboard Devices Configuration/M.2_2 Bandwidth Configuration = X2
Advanced/Onboard Devices Configuration/RGB LED Lighting/In Sleep, hibernate and soft off states = Off
Advanced/APM Configuration/Restore AC Power Loss = Power On
Boot/Above 4G Decoding = Enabled
Boot/Secure Boot/Key Management/Clear Secure Boot Keys = YES
Hope that helps. |

Btw, I noticed in the interview you had this very large Burstcoin array.. several sets of like 24 HDD .. you have how many HDD runnign now? How many motherboards drive those arrays? I was thinking about getting into burstcoin because it's green and well it makes sense. I am surprised there aren't more proof of capacity coins. Do you think proof of capacity will eventually really take off? I am thinking about adding 5 x SATA HDD to my GPU mining rig, would this be a bad idea? like 5 x 8 TB HDD. Would it slow down the GPU mining?
I have 4 x 24 bay chassis used by a single server (housed in one of those 4 chassis). I have a total of 90 drives ranging from 2TB to 8TB. Total storage just shy of 300TB. I have a Supermicro motherboard with a E5-2683 v3 (14 core CPU). It is capable of scanning the entire 300TB worth of plots in 30 seconds. Plotting the drives initially is very time consuming, but once done, other than a burst of i/o every 4 minutes or so, there is not much stress on the machine. So I don't see why you could not also GPU mine on the same rig. My 2683 is actually mining XMR at the same time as Burst. With the new PoC consortium and the recently released white paper on PoC2 and PoC3, I think Burst has a bright future. |

It's only faster in reported values on it's console. Run it for 24hs on a pool and it will be *less* than DSTM and with wild variation in the reported hash rate. After 12 hours I'm seeing about a 3% *increase* pool side, but I'll continue running for another day or two to see if that changes. |
