look at these ratios

http://coinmarketcap.com/


 gear mining btc    2,380,716,564 GH/s that is 183,000 s9's and that is 274,500,000 usd  plus psu's

cap is 14,582,607,308 usd so 18.82%

gear mining eth

5976 gh  that is 200,000 rx 480's and that is 42,000,000 usd


cap is 631,622,906 usd    so 6.65%  




gear mining zec  

55 mh  is 275,000 rx 480s say  57,750,000 usd

cap is 15,392,931 usd   so 375.17%


So gear value to cap value ratios

BTC    18.82%
ETH      6.65%
ZEC  375.17%

DO THESE HAVE MEANING?

if they do  zec    will soar in value

or  BTC and ETH will crash in value.

LOOK AT THIS LIST:

gpu
AMD


 Which is probably the ONLY member of that list that mining has ever caused a measurable "sales blip" for.

 Keep in mind though - of every "AMD GPU" that is sold, AMD themselves likely realise at most 20% and more likely 10-15% of the final retail sale price on.

 It would take MANY tens of milliions in "additional sales" to miners to pay AMD back for a $10 million price intervention like like has been suggested.

 Keep in mind that the very very limited number of chip making facilities that CAN make the GPUs for the current generation cards have been BACKLOGGED the entire time they've had any production at all, which puts a severe limit on how many "additional" cards IF ANY are capable of being sold.

 Some folks wonder why BitMain keeps "selling out" so often on the various S9 batches.
 I am 100% CERTAIN the reason is that they can't get the CHIPS on a reliable basis to keep up with demand for the SAME REASON.


 If ZEC had gone live 2 years ago, or 1-2 years from now, it might make SOME sense for AMD to pump the market - right now, it makes pretty much zero sense.





exactly  which is why the pumps are not 10 million when they come.

You realize the pump that just past had 2,000,000  usd in action on pump day.

if you have 4 accounts on a major exchange  and use:

 a to sell to b
to sell to c
to sell to d
to sell to a
to sell to b
to sell to c
to sell to d

and boom a pump at  a lower cost then 2,000,000 

This will not end  for quite a while.  Why is that  simple the market cap is low and it is cheap to do so.

my stock amd rx 480's has 235 s/h. How can i overclock them for better perfomance? i have tried 1300core and 2100 mem clock speed, but they starts to hash even lower~206 s/h. Pls give me an advise how can i solve this problem.ty.

that is  a decent number.

the only way to do better is a bios flash

and if you never did bios flashing be careful as you can brick the cards.

To answer why I spent a shit ton of cash on dvi.

I have found that going the route of  dvi switching  bypasses the dreaded black screen and the eth 4mhs bug. Better then vga or hdmi
I also have some

display to dvi cables
hdmi to dvi cables
dvi to dvi cables


It really costs far to much to justify as a practical solution.
Team viewer is more cost effective

But I am a gear freak.

Right now I have 12 rigs in house.

I plan for the garage to have 8 rigs not 10

They will be 7 biostar 4 card and 1 evga 4 card  the eight port switcher will be ideal.

3 rigs will go to the solar array

1 rig will be in my den   a 1 card rig as I had the pc already


Hey zec dropped just a bit  so stay on it and wait for the rx 490 pump.  hold coins if you can.



27366  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Trying to make a list of the rx 480's hash rate power and settings etc. on: December 25, 2016, 05:01:50 AM
Trying to get 6 X Sapphire RX480 going on H81 MB, tried win10 and win7. After driver install and after reboot, fails to post. Nada, black screen sometime or BSOD. Even with just one card plugged in on a power riser. Only if I unplug the card will it boot into OS. Thought it was my MB, but I see many 480's running on these boards. I even ordered the H97 Anniversary, thinking its my MB, has not come in yet but Any suggestions?

That's really strange. I have 4 RX 480's (just added a 5th) on the H81 board with 4gb cheapo ram and a G1820 CPU on Windows 10. Runs pretty well. What's your PSU? I'm using a Rosewill Photon 1050, which certainly is nowhere near the best, but it's been running good for quite a while now.

I'm using 16.11.5 driver on all my rigs at the moment and they're running just right. However, I did install other drivers on one of my rigs at some point and if I remember correctly, I had similar issues to what you're talking about. Well, not failing to post, but I was getting crazy BSOD's to the point that I could not login and needed to reinstall Win 10. But Windows 10 will put you at like 16.6 and I just install 16.11.5 and I'm up and running. I wish I had more info to give, but that's been my process and it's been alright so far. At the end of the day, it could be your board. You wouldn't be the first person with a bad H81 board. Just read around.

This was a very old post you replied to.

Most,info,here is out,of,date.
I am locking thread.

8 port dvi/USB/kvm switch

All seriousness I did get an 8 port  switch. Cost me good money but I have an idea for using it beyond mining.
And I am going to have six four card biostar Msi rigs.

Please can you post a link to it, you've gotten me curious! Tongue


it is costly

I sent Bitmain Warranty an s9 hash board that was still under warranty but they charged me $200. You have to send to Hong Kong to get warranty work covered.

Yeah but shipping to Hong Kong costs 115.

And you have to claim the board is worth under 45 dollars.

So,if,board,is,lost or damaged oh well.

And turnaround is 3 weeks.

You are correct that bitmainwarranty charges on case by case basis on boards that China may cover.

My best advice is figure at least 10-15 % in down time on your s9s

And either warranty option is not really good.

... some Miners with low E-Prices might still be in ROI,
but I do not think,
all of the 8732.3171 kSol/s running at nicehash 4 BTC
are really °°°.

Looks like a big bubble.


 Grin PanneKopp

P.S. some "Mining-Rig-Investors" will cry


why do you see a bubble  and I see an opportunity?

market cap of 15 million makes pump cheap .

and the list of companies above  that stand to make a lot more sales if this coin sticks around is a long list of big money companies.

You do realize that a  10 million usd  pump put in by AMD  would jack coin price from .052 to .111 easy

and if 2 or 3 of the companies above all decide to do a pump  coin can go to 0.3 or 0.5 no problem.


Look for a big pump when AMD releases the rx 490 and rx 490x

Phil,  How many of your failures were outside of the warranty window?  Are most failures appearing relatively soon so you are covered by the warranty?


okay  first five units  All ordered in june ----- 1 dead board on day 80


sixth unit ordered in august ----------------  2 dead boards and 1 dead controller  all in under 2 weeks


seventh unit  ordered in NOV -----  auto tune still working.


I did everyone with bitmain warranty   so I paid shipping NJ USA to Colorado, USA

My repairs were all free .   My costs were shipping 15 to them 25 back to me  so 4 x 40 = 160

I purchased some fans and 2 spare old firmware boards which are no longer available  cost about 300

So 460-500   spent for repairs maintenance and spare parts.  against 7 units of s9.   Down time  say 1 full month of 1 s9  which is around 250 in coin

so lets say 750 lost for 7 s9's

 I won't count the 25-30 extra trips from my house to the solar array  6 mile round trip


27374  Bitcoin / Hardware / Re: Bitmain's Released Antminer S9, World's First 16nm Miner Ready to Order on: December 24, 2016, 04:29:26 PM
I got a quick response this time, 30 day warranty on the hash board so I am shipping back today. We shall see how long it takes to get it back.

I also have an R4 that only hashes on one board and not sure if I should send it to Hong Kong or Denver for repair.

I am currently at 19% failure rate on s9

Yeah  I am 1/7  that is 14.2%


in reality 3 of 21 boards 1 of 7 controllers

or 4 or 28 parts

or 1 of 7

which is 14.2%

I can get the 1200W Platinum psu's for about $150+/-20 on Amazon.

That can be a great deal!

The cheapest 1200W platinum I've seen was ~$185, but usually they are ~$200

Rosewill Quark Series 1200 Watt Full Modular 80 Plus Platinum Certified

Here is the link:  https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00VS8728G/ref=ox_sc_sfl_title_3?ie=UTF8&psc=1&smid=ATVPDKIKX0DER

They have been really reliable for me.

While we're talking about PSU's: does anyone have a way to pull data from their PSU's?
I know Corsair Link is one PSU that can do that .. Do any others? I'm trying to find a way to monitor lots of power going to individual rigs on a large scale.

Maybe thermaltake?

Go to www.jonnyguru.com. He has info on over 300 psus

Thanks,

 Regarding connection problem : considering it was working before shuting it down and didn't work after shuting it down. I thing this is not the issue. I have done an hard shut down (with power button) and this may have caused overpowering in some part or damaged some parts (this is my version).

Specs of parts :

PSU :
 Lepa 1600W G1600 80+ Gold

Mother board :
Ashrock H81 PRO BTC New Version (just recieved it)

CPU :
Intel Celeron ProcessorG1840, 2.8 GHZ, 2 MB Cache, LGA1150

RAM :
Kingston KVR1333D3N9/8G 8GB PC3 10600 CL9 240 Pin DIMM

DRIVE :
Kingstone SSDnow SMS200S3 / 30 G (which I adapt using mSATA -SATA 2,5'' Disk adapter from Lindy)

GPUs:
2 GIGABYTE G1 GAMING RADEON R9 390 8192MB GDDR5


Here are the pictures without GPUs :








so here are your photos
27377  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Problem starting GPU MINING RIG on: December 24, 2016, 03:17:16 PM
You're not putting the PSU under any load at all when just connecting green to ground. It needs to have some load to test it properly as most psus would be fine at idle but only show problems when being used. Swap it out onto something else if you can and see if the problems follow the psu.

this is a good method.

also remember that lepa psu is a multi rail  like 4 or 5 rails


and if you really want to shut down a rig

flip the power switch on the psu or pull the psu power cord.
