Hey if I mine some zcash on ethpool
New pool.
A ) what exchange will let me have a wallet
B) what software is everyone using
C) I have rx 470 or rx 480 I have 4gb or 8gb what's best.
D) Anyone running a good rig setup yet?
A- bittrex will have a wallet on friday. B- right now everything worth wild is linux only C- right now cpus are out doing gpus till someone can get a gpu solver that can push some numbers D- i have dual xeon e5-2670s doing around 30 sols on windows. (still working on linux numbers) so based on this I can do A - get a wallet on fri B- try to get my 1 linux pc to run its intel 2500t cpu C- same as B D- based on your results I will get less then 10 sols |

I was PMed asking if there was an update. This is what happened...
We spoke on the phone the next day. (20th?)
I increased my offer.
He said he would talk to his partner.
No communication since.
Too bad pretty coins I would have wanted a roll of them. I would offer escrow but I usually don't handle that much for escrow. I do mostly under 2 or 3 k for escrow. |

I will re-install win 10 one last time and try the 6 card one rig ... if it fails it'll be 3 GPU per MOBO.
Tired of loosing hours of mining and time.
I found that the you have to use the usb risers that are powered in the back of the usb riser board for the 12x pcie slots on the motherboard instead of the flex cables. I love the flex cables, but they often only work on the 1x pcie slots. See if this works for you and let me know. Thanks !!! I will try that. I have USB riser, but I was using the flex cable for the 12x 16x slot. Appreciated info EDIT: what is very strange is whatever card is at position GPU 1, it always the one who cannot create the DAG (Open CL error 36) or just doesn't hash (0 MH) or just hang after 1-2 hours. I got trouble with GPU2 and GPU5, but I can see that it's not the same card at the same position all the time since cards crashes and window re-install the driver automaticly or whatever he do it seems to shuffle the cards. If I run 4 cards, it is just more stable (2 days). I tried 2 MOBO (H81 PRO BTC) with the same result pretty much. I managed to get all 6 cars running 2 times, 10 mins and 2 hours with with only bootstrap Bios updates. I don't play with wattman, it is a waste of time at the moment, everything reset all the time. I red some info in another thread ... I will try what he said ... plug one card, reset CMOS, plug the rest (and some driver manipulation). I might just re-install Win 10 first since i have reinstalled 9.2 and 10.1 like freaking 20 times. airsick mobs are nutty. I just got this mobo http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813157681 99 usd 30 rebate = 69 usd. I got it to replace the mob flooded at the solar array. So I wanted to run windows 7 and I got the usb mouse won't work bug. it works once you load all the drivers on the mobo cd/dvd so I go look around the house and find both a keyboard and a mouse with p2 jacks not usb jacks just to get to load the mobo drivers. spent an extra hour last night looking for the ps2 gear. the board is now working with 2 msi rx 470s' this was a cheap build. 2 cards on sale 370 usd. the mobo on sale 69 usd. so cost was 439. all other parts were salvaged from the array mobo. the ram the ssd the cpu. So I am up to just under 400 mh. I am happy I have chosen to be high on btc vs eth or anything else. I have just been converting all eth to btc at the moment. I also sold off a bit of btc to shore up my cash share of the game. I am kind of busy helping my neighbor fix up his garage. we tore out all old insulation put in new. then put in decent tongue in groove pine for the walls. next we will put up shelves. We should finish the job on this Friday. |

Well it's a much simpler machine, shouldn't be too difficult. And if it doesn't fall apart in ways that aren't covered by any reasonable warranty plan about 20% of the time it's worth a bit more just because of that.
well the website does not list them at this time. and I am not inclined to do a preorder or pay 4.2 coins for a 10 th machine. BTW coins are up to 6.62 usd. I don't mind paying 1000 usd for it. The 13th bitmaintech is 1550 so 10/13 x 1550 = 1192 usd that would make it exactly equal per th to $ usd It would be able to run on a 120 volt 15 amp circuit. which means the EVGA 1300 g2 comes back into play for home miners. I would love to see this at $899.99 and 75 usd to ship it from The east to the USA> $975 total would be good. oh bitmaintech will simply drop its price to beat it but I did sell most of my s9's off and I am holding 20+ coins at the moment. |

I think everyone agrees with what Newko said. citronick you really should come back, Juvia belongs here.  Ditto! Come on back citronick and let Juvia help you enjoy the next block party with today's spot price of $669!  Well...I'll third and fourth those tomes. Not to extend the S9 discussion...but, one of my students (a really brilliant person) in my grad school Research Methods class once quipped, "Yeah, correlation doesn't necessarily prove causation...but when you're observing a cat catch and eat a mouse, do you need to see ten other cats eat ten other mice to feel comfy in the statement that cats eat mice?" IMHO you did a good thing, citronick, and for the right reasons, whether it turns out that our paranoia is founded or not. For me and my teeny-tiny group here, we're doing OK still. No worries. <snip> This is testable though, right? You run your mining software, record *all* the hashes 1. smaller than some size, and 2. for some amount of time that provides enough data 3. to test whether or not the data could belong to the theoretical population distribution. The test could be a "goodness of fit test" or use statistical inference. "Enough data" might just mean enough hashes to determine whether or not citronick has the 32 bit error that some previous miners have had (though I assume that Kano has already run that particular test ). yeah I would really like for him to do some 5 day off 5 day on tests. he should hit a block every nine days. so if he did say 3 tests of 9 days on and 3 tests of 9 days off. it is 54 days I would love to see if for the 27 days he was on the pool was a lot different the the 27 days off the pool |

Yeah I can not alter any post in this thread it is an action thread.
So to be clear this is for sidehack .
Two sticks you bid for one.
I will ship a stick to anyone that wins.
We will have 2 winners 1 for each stick.
NotFuzzyWarm .1 btc leads
Rockmoney. .06 btc leads
Elokk .05 btc is in third. No stick

I can't correct the misspelling it is sidehack not sidekick. iPad auto correct sucks |

What a massive few days at Kano pool -- amazing block party today, brings back the good ole days and also it kind off put some truth behind Kano's calculations on bad luck brought by S9s. To convince myself that moving out is the right thing to do, a few days ago, I temporarily moved 108 x S9s off the pool... taking a chunk of S9s off the pool may have normalised the pool altogether. I was hoping I could proof kano's math wrong. so my conscience is clear when I come back to the pool.... but I think he right in this matter -- its as simple as: take 100 x S9s out from pool = get luckier and get 4-5 blocks even with lower PHs. While I am happy for fellow Kano miners, I am sad to face the fact the S9 farm pointed to this pool is not good for the her - means also that I am cannot mine at kano with the current gear. Lack of A7 information didn't help too... if it ever comes out, I would be more than happy to get my investors expand Juvia's farm and add a "Gray's farm" with A7s only to Kano pool. I am no expert in the science behind bad luck calculations but I have my fair share of agony caused by faulty controller, hash board repairs, long RMAs and weird readings off a rip-coff copy of cgminer labelled as their own - so I know how bad we need a good competitor to Bitmain. I am still hopeful of getting some good news from Avalon... ...until then.... Juvia & minions have left the building. so 108 x 13th =1.404ph if I am correct. that would not be enough to hurt the pool. keep them off for 5 more days. then bring them back for five days. run five 5 day tests. off on off on off if the luck follows all five tests good with your s9 off pool bad with your s9 on pool I would believe it. |

I bought as MSI Gaming 470. It runs rather cool, about 57o, or so, but what can I tweak to keep the fan running all the time? It toggles itself to be on for 20 seconds or so, and then turns off for another 10 to 15 seconds. I just want it on 100% of the time. I've tried various settings, but it still toggles on and off.
Gaby, that is weird about your hard drive.... These rigs never cease to amaze me...
try wattman set temp to 50_50 also set fans like 900-1200 |

If you win a stick I will ship to the world including USA EUR CAN for free. 0.05 btc is the starting bid for 1 stick. I am auction 2 sticks. first bid wins in a tie. I will ship to you once sidehack confirms payment. the funds go direct to sidehack Sales must be paid for within 24 hours of the auction ending, paid to address 1GekkosciLeaey8Na9siC8oD5HcMtLnWwd Here is another shot.  |

Can not edit auction threads. sidekick ran a funding auction thread. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1652091.msg16671448#msg16671448It raised some funds. I am auctioning 2 compac sticks. bidding starts at .05 btc Will run it to Wed 11 pm EST Sales must be paid for within 24 hours of the auction ending, paid to address 1GekkosciLeaey8Na9siC8oD5HcMtLnWwd I had as many as 25 sticks I gave away as promos gifts etc. here is a shot of some running  |

So what algos do you mainly run with your rigs (nvidia and ati I would assume different algos for algo efficiency differences between them?)
I am guessing Lyra2 or LBRY, and ETH correct? Do you pool mine with exchange or solo mine?
Personally, if i'm mining lyra2 and profits are just lacking for over day, ill switch my rigs over to X11evo for a day and switch back after. Seems to keep profitability to a nice even amount.
I'd probably do some ETH mining myself, but I don't like maintaining wallets and typically mine to a thin wallet based off a cellphone and xfer to coinbase or my hardware wallet for storage till use.... and since there are basically none for ETH.... and I can't just mine to my coinbase wallet... it's kind-of a drawback for me to start on ETH myself. (most of my regular net connections are cellular, so the traffic from wallets and blockchains are not feasible for me to keep online).
I mine Eth coin with ethpool.org use claymore miner don't over clock keep it simple for stability. The solar array is 3 miles from my home. When gear crashes I have daylight access to the site. So stable gear is very important to me. I never thought I would say that mining eth coin with gpu's is more stable then mining btc with asics. when the array had 10 avalon 6's and 1 s7 it was pretty much prefect 30 40 day periods of time with no issues. Not the case with the s9. |

If I had 50 Antminer S9's on a farm, how often should I expect to have to physically check / touch / be in the presence of the mining units?
I'm wondering how much effort it is to maintain peak hashrates + any other nursing tasks. And assume the initial bugs were worked out.
Thanks
Well if it were s7's I would say you could go weeks at a time. My s9's and the most I had were 6 would go for 5 to 9 days and I would get an issue of some kind. Maybe I had a 20 day stretch between June 16 and august 16 with zero issues and I had to go to the site five times in that time period. So I expanded in mid august it is now mid oct. 66 days and I have been to the site 16 to 20 times . I finally sold most of the s9's and have only 2 .. I have finally become more stable. but 2 miners are not much. |
