261  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Is this a good onboard CPU/mobo for mining? ASRock N3050M on: December 03, 2016, 06:00:27 AM
http://www.newegg.ca/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813157617  (sorry, canadian link)

$85CAD, and as far as i can tell it would handle 3x GPU mining. (Pretty good considering that a celeron+6gpu mobo can run more than 2x that)
262  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: GPU Rig PORN on: December 02, 2016, 03:24:15 PM


Here some of my rigs, total rigs 85 cards 292.
In a week or so we are starting the preparation process for hot summer, more photos to come ..

looks great, but why would you not use an ATX mobo that can handle 6-7 cards?

your mine would be using ~40 fewer motherboards, 40 fewer CPUs, ~320GB less ram, and 40 fewer SSDs. Thats like $5000-6000 savings, and less time spent tuning 1 rig at a time

Looks like someone released a fake 9.0 beta version. I posted a warning in the comments to only trust this thread for new releases, but it was removed. Here is the link to the youtube video.

Flag it and bag it  Grin

dont share a scam link

so the one and only post by your account is to repeat a link to fake software scam?

I think 1070 loses efficiency powering the 8GB of memory, the 1060 3GB should be best, except for in ethereum.


Probably, but it's hard to gauge just by how much. I think the number is miniscule and it's nice not to get locked with 3-4GB in the future as I'm not planning on selling 1xxx series cards in less than well over a year.

I could only find estimates on memory power consumption which vary wildly:

http://www.anandtech.com/show/10193/micron-begins-to-sample-gddr5x-memory (1/3 of the page)

Based on other sources older cards consumed 4.35 W per gigabyte of GDDR5 (17.4W for 4GB and 34.8W for 8GB) but the same source says it's closer to 20W or slightly more for 8GB.

There are also much higher numbers, like 50W for an R9 290X.



isn't it watt per die instead of eg. 1 GB Huh

I don't know. Maybe that's one of the reason why the numbers are so different.

It would be per die... The amount of power memory consumes is pretty small compared to the entirety of the card. Some people also forget that Ethereum is not the only coin in existence and building your ecosystem around one coin that will be getting hit hard in the coming months is not such a great idea.

Nvidia is also not responsible for the kind of memory manufacturers use. That would be up to manufacturers such as MSI/Gigabyte/Asus.

Ethereum continues to give the largest % of mining revenue by far, without it we can all throw our cards away. Also 30W/card would not be negligible.

Only NVIDIA pulls this memory switching shit every generation, your argument fails because AMD and its AIB partners don't do this.

Ethereum is going away this Januaryish as it shifts to PoS.

Only Nvidia switches memory? lol... When I mined with AMD I had three different manufacturers. Hynix, Elpedia, and Samsung from four different card manufacturers. Some changing between the same cards and models. They do it because they find a better partner that can source memory for cheaper or better to them. Mining is a small drop in the bucket when it comes to the entirety of GPUs.

As I mentioned AMD/Nvidia have nothing to do with who the memory is sourced from, only the type that is used (GDDR5/X, HBM). That's all the card manufacturers.

ethereum originally planned to go PoS by summer 2016. then fall. now early 2017.dont hold your breath - IMO the devs and those close to the project are mining it, and advertising a PoS switch "soon" is an excellent deterrent to others from building farms

ASIC for ZCAS,ZCOIN ,etc... http://www.ufominers.com/zcash-equinox

dont link that site - total scam

http://www.ufominers.com/ethereum-rhinominer


because everyone knows that an ethereum miner needs a FLOPPY DRIVE

Good morning ladies and gentlemen of Bitcoinland.

Not much change but what little there is, is in the right direction... currently $745USD at Bitcoinaverage.

At least we Canadians are back in quadruple digits... $1001CAD.

We're still basically where we were a month ago. I'd guess that $700 is a done deal.

Time to start moving up again. Let's put $750 behind us and get to work on $780.

it jumped on minimal volume, so it could revert pretty easily back to $730.

IMO, we stay flat in $720-740 range until 2017, then move up. passing $780 would almost certainly mean a runup to a (brief) ~$900 peak

Any updates on new hardware being released ?

In Two Weeks.

*ducks*

you mock now - but spondoolies is surely coming out with upgrade boards for the SP10!

I know, ill show myself out...
270  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Claymore's ZCash AMD GPU Miner v8.0 on: November 28, 2016, 08:33:50 PM
Definitely ETC + Sia better than Zec currently  Sad

am i missing something? my calculations indicate dual-mining is unprofitable for anyone paying >$0.07/kwh

bumping to the top, and including a warning:

my account was hacked and ive been locked out. Im following the recovery process but it relies on Theymos's quick response. Please do not PM or respond to PMs from "klondike_bar" until the issue is resolved.

In the meanwhile, I am able to still fulfill issues either through this account (not recommended for obvious reasons) or via email (if you know it). Previous clients are invited to ask me to sign a transaction with any payment address(es) they have used in the past with me. I'll have no problem signing to demonstrate ownership.

This posting is legitimate and I can vouch for it, do not send funds to the main klondike_bar account until it is recovered.

I've got my account back and still tons of cables in stock. Finksy can confirm
272  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Ethereum 1.4Gh/s miner @1550w with less than 3 months ROI? on: November 28, 2016, 01:18:04 AM
cmon, it has a cdrom drive - are you really that stupid?

give me your money and ill give you back 10% in a month from now. its a better deal than buying this hardware
273  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: CCminer(SP-MOD) Modded NVIDIA Maxwell / Pascal kernels. on: November 24, 2016, 07:36:39 PM
running my GTX1070 (strix, 2GHz core /+800MHz mem) at 200Sol/s each with the nicehash miner.
274  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Claymore's Dual Ethereum AMD+NVIDIA GPU Miner v7.4 (Windows/Linux) on: November 23, 2016, 05:23:53 PM
can confirm that r9-270x does about 105Sol/s with claymore (windows), using cards that are undervolted

definitely superior to getting ~14MH at ethereum
275  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: PS4 Pro Mining or Xbox One S Mining? on: November 23, 2016, 03:49:00 AM
that relied on the PS3's linux capabilities

AFAIK the PS4 isnt designed to allow any sort of root/shell access

What's the reason for the dip? Whale decided do to sell?

stabilize at 720-730, for a few days, and then push up again. either passes $760 and goes for $800, or deflects down back to $700 or $680 again
277  Other / Archival / Re: Pictures of your mining rigs! on: November 20, 2016, 04:23:41 PM
^with bios change, should be around 26-28MH ethereum or 150-160Sol/s zcash
278  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Claymore's ZCash AMD GPU Miner v6.0 on: November 17, 2016, 04:35:20 AM
after 24hrs, im getting pretty good numbers

3x R9-270X (sapphire) @ ~72Sol/s
2x RX-470 (MSI 4GB) @ ~144Sol/s
Theoretical = ~500Sol/s
Actual (nicehash) = ~473Sol/s

thats pretty damn close, about 5% less than the miner indicates. Assuming the 2.5% fee, thats within 2.5%
279  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Mining many crypto in one hardware on: November 16, 2016, 09:16:40 PM
What are you talking about?

Buy a gpu and use something like the claymore dual-miner.
280  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Claymore's ZCash AMD GPU Miner v6.0 on: November 16, 2016, 09:15:36 PM
so jealous of your temps, i only have one 390x the rest are 270x and 280x. will probably remove the blackplate to see if it helps

Imo the backplate is probably better and/or inconsequential if left on. In some builds, it may actually help conduct heat from the card (while others it provides an insulating layer)
