Since blockchain was a public ledger (everyone could see) So, I think one of government project should be adopting blockchain, let's said elections. Or maybe donations program on the election campaign.

As far as I know, Newegg and OverStock accept bitcoin as one of their payment methods, but personally, I've never tried it.

I only use my bitcoin  (mostly) for recharge my mobile, and some domain and hosting services.

Work hard is a general rule of life. If you want more, you should work more.

I agree with you all, Cryptocurrency isn't a fast way to be a rich, but one of a great way to get some profit over it.

Come on, 60 thousand was a good number, at least for me. 

This year, my goal still related to mining, I want to add more Rigs to my Mining room, at least until I can't add more.

Have you increase the page file (virtual memory)?, that was basic, but that's important on mining process. (in case you forgot it)

Great job, would be perfect if you were announcing your multi-pool at Pools (Altcoins) https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=199.0 (all about mining-pool) you have a chance to get more responses there.

Yeah, that will break your card warranty. 
Proper way bios mod wouldn't break your card, what that proper way to do bios mod? one of it was always using your original bios as bios source for doing bios mod.

And the full proper way to do bios mod has posted above. May I need to quote it.

Noted
So that was the issue is, make sense. That was a compatibility issue between memory (memory speed) and its processors, right?

As the others said above: You will only damage your laptop and got nothing.

The other thing you should know:
Yes, you can mine using your laptop just for few hours only, but while you on pooled mining that was a bad idea when you have less stay time in the pool. You wouldn't have a full share to the pool (at least for a few pools related to their payment schemes), and that's not worth it.

I also have experience with bent cpu pins before. That also possibly causing OP's problem.
OP you should check!


Basically, that extra Molex used as GPUs extra power (PCIe bus), but I found some thread before with almost the same problem and solved with that (two extra Molex on board).

@OP
Have you tried to reset CMOS? Unplug and re-plug memory (RAM), boot your system without HDD (SSD) and plug the monitor at the onboard graphics.

Related to your question "How to get more h/s?" and you were using RX series from AMD (as you plan to buy) you will have a few scenarios.

First, OCing and Undervolting using OC tools may enough for a starter.

Second, Bios mod then OCing that you can do after understanding how it works.

Third, For some VRAM type, OC was more than enough (the card can run at the same hashing speed with OCed cards). AFAIK Samsung and Micron can do that.

Welcome to the forum and crypto mining world.

I agree with the comment above me. You can explore and gain you mining skill with current hardware at first. Know it how to optimize your device, how to find the most profitable coins, etc. Then you can upgrade your devices when you have ready.

You have an advantage with the alternative energy (solar panels, batteries, and a small wind turbine) as you said. And you can spend the time to do some experiment with your current device without worries about the electricity bill.

Interesting, I agree with you. Don't risk our name changed on social security number  . KYC for bounties and airdrops not worth it.


Then someone who buys that document will use it for KYC to. 

OP has been testing the rig with one card plugged, I think that isn't a power issue, but who knows. That's more like a driver issue.

The physical issue also possible, such as risers isn't right connected. Just check all thing that may possible.

That's better

Have you tried reinstalling your driver? Clean it first using DDU then reinstall the driver with the current setup (one card plugged).

Of course not, I'm just adding one more condition that you don't write above on your last statement.
I mean this:


Even I was able to reduce much heat at my rig with a few things, so that was realistic after all.


That's me, I didn't say you should do that. But for me stability is important.

Windows update disabled isn't mean your Windows not updated, check update history!

Let us know your full setup.

As the other said, will be better if you mine CPU-based coins, since LTC has ASICs Miner. Even GPU can't beat ASIC on Litecoin mining.

This post may help you:

Maybe you need to add one other thing:
I would like lowest power consumption with highest hashrate and less heat. (I want it) 

My RX rig running at 29.xx - 30 (2100-1360). I more prepare for stability.

You may right, buying mining equipment nowadays a bit risky. All thing must consider, except you were a miner with a few mining equipment before. And I can say for sure mining still profitable ("at least for most of the miner")
