7x970 - Lyra2 won't start (out of memory)
4GB system memory
7x 970 ?!  Roll Eyes mobo are so expensive...
you need at least as much ram than vram here something like 28Gb to run that kind of system



Surely there has to be a workaround. I mean the memory/swap doesn't even seem to be allocated let alone used, not even for a second.
Something like initializing the cards one after the other instead of all at the same time or something? Or giving the cards different jobs instead of working together on one big job? I have no idea but I'm sure there's a way.

This is both silly and borderline delusional.
The coin only have 31 BTC volume even now that it's getting pumped.
54% price increase at the time of writing. Why would anyone other than gamblers want to hold their savings in such a volatile form?

It doesn't even have a block explorer to take a look at the distribution.

So some of you guys though even for a moment that the article benchmarking the supposed new dual chip cards on minesweeper was true?Huh LoL!!!!

Cheesy Cheesy Cheesy Cheesy Such a nice results on solitaire also

Solitaire is serious business Cheesy



I take it you tried.

Cloud computing services adapted a long time ago and they monitor everything. If you stress the CPU or GPU(s) or network bandwidth too much to their liking they will cut you off.
Unless of course that's exactly what you pay for but that is pretty much the equivalent of burning money unless you're name is David Andersen.
2925  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: CCminer(SP-MOD) Modded NVIDIA Maxwell kernels. on: July 05, 2015, 04:47:38 PM
even if this were completely true AND available right now - it would be a very difficult task to implement such cards in a mining environment due to the logistics of space - cost of cards and cost of consumption of electricity - and shelving space for the machines ...


Entertaining the idea, I don't see your point. If we disregard the obviously super high hashrate per initial card price and the terribly inefficient looking cooling I'm sure there would be a sweet spot (guessing 3 cards per rig or 6 GPUs).
One of these imaginary rigs would do as much as 4 full 750 Ti rigs if we scale the numbers off the Titan X and the density would surely be welcomed by most miners so I don't see any logistics of space issue. On the contrary, less space, less fans and probably less noise, less components so in overall less points of failure.

I honestly think both LTC and DOGE are way overstaying their welcome as I really can't see any reason whatsoever that would warrant their current price. I'm curious though, why people think otherwise.

Saying that it's "overstaying their welcome" is wrong.  People love trading those.  There is an open market for it, who's to say that it should be taken off market?

This was just my opinion and I didn't say they should be taken off at all. I'm just genuinely curious why these have this high trade volume. Foerster since gave a few reasons though.
2929  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Why DOGE is so cheap, What am I missing?? on: July 05, 2015, 12:41:07 PM
i think the reason why Dogecoin is at this value is simply because of the ridiculous available supply of the Dogecoin . right now it is 100 billion Doge available. additionally every block will give a reward of 10,000 Doge and the miners will dump it on the market as soon as they get it.
with not enough demand this amount of supply will keep the price down.

Currently there are 10 BTC worth of coins are being mined every day. Compare that to the daily volume and it's safe to say the mined amount is nothing and the market can easily absorb it.


A coin with consistent high volume is what that matters most

I agree, I just don't see why Doge has this much volume.

I want LTC to be around as a safe haven coin in case shit happens with BTC.  Easy trades, storage and movement of funds.

edit:  And the volume is there to support big trades.

I see but I think that if BTC would flop for some reason then so would LTC/DOGE. I just don't think there's anything that LTC/DOGE does better than BTC.

Yobit is officialy dead to me. Just because they deny to serve one side of the market doesn't mean it's healthy, in fact as said above this is pretty much a braindead form of ponzi.

For scrypt based coins ccminer is set to only use 88% of the maximum video RAM in case of Windows and 98% in case of Linux by default:

Code:
device_backoff[i] = is_windows() ? 12 : 2;

It is there for safety so it won't crash for people who wish to mine on their main card.
One of the changes I always do before compiling is to change that value to 1 for Windows to allow it to use 99% of memory and if you don't have a monitor attached to your card and not running something that is using VRAM needlessly, it won't crash. Not even while autotuning.


I used that since cudaminer days so I have no idea about the hashrate difference anymore.


Now that we're entering the territory of cards with 3GB+ video memory it's worth noting that 32-bit ccminer can't utilize more than 3GB.
64-bit can utilize it all but 64-bit is also noticeably slower so for cards like the 970 it doesn't worth it but for the 980 Ti it might - for algos that scale with memory amount (not access) like Scrypt-Jane.
Afaik, 32-bit softwares can actually utilize more than 3GB video memory but only if the data is also stored in the system RAM which is generally not optimal for mining.

Edit: 200 pages! Congrats and keep up the good work sp_ (sent a few beers your way).

The 980 ti
http://www.gigabyte.com/products/product-page.aspx?pid=5208#ov

Would there be a difference if the card where 6gb and not 4gb ram on hashrate ?
thx

That's a non-Ti.

This is a Ti which have 6GB memory: http://www.gigabyte.com/products/product-page.aspx?pid=5472#ov

It can't cost that much to create fake volume with a pegged coin.

Do you want to get malware and get your wallets stolen? Because that's how you get malware and get your wallets stolen.

If you're not running wallets in a limited Sandboxie, a virtual amchine or on a throwaway OS then it's just a matter of time when you get your wallets (and maybe even your browser's saved login/passwords for exchanges) stolen.

I also dislike bittrex keeping delisted coins (the very least they should send them back to the address they were deposited from) but I also don't think this poll has any merit. Good luck though.
