None.

No, I do not support it. Go to monerotalk.

This is hilarious. Monero (or any other altcoin for that matter) is nothing but a tiny dust compared to the massive machine that is Bitcoin.
Let's see the 24h volumes:

Monero - 148 BTC
Bitcoin - 56,065 BTC

It appears to be 40.

After I first read about Ripple, I stopped reading when I saw that Ripple Labs is a company registered in the US.

I think the only way to stop ICO scams is to educate people they they are very likely getting scammed and they shouldn't invest into them. They are probably have more chances of making a profit with a random shady ponzi site. If you trust a random new account with your BTC because of a few bulletpoints and pretty images I think you have no right to get upset if you get parted with said BTC.

If I had my tinfoil hat on looking at all the new ICO and SHA256 coins I might be wondering whether or not there is a new group that is keep pushing out coins with different flavors.

1. Bitcoin
2. Crave
3. Spreadcoin

Bitcoin is a given, Crave looks very promising long term and I love that Spreadcoin cannot be poolmined (safely) and it's starting to look good again even though the original dev disappeared.

Interesting. I think at the end of the day it will only push towards more decentralization like decentralized exchanges.

That is why the marketcap is a completely useless number.

Oh look, an ICO!

To my understanding the TDP slider or power target limit is a hardcap on the maximum power the card uses. That is not necessarily translate into watt used by the card. The fans, the memory and the core itself all have to be collectively under the limit. If the limite is reached, you can't increase the clock speeds with overclocking because there's no power to do so. That's why you could reach higher core overclocks if you downclocked the memory in Kepler cards (probably applies to Maxwell as well) because then the memory used less and of course the fans can't get limited in power.

I have 4 of them and I've been using them for over a year and I picked them up for the current equivalent of 0.26 BTC each. On arrival I just updated the BIOS and I'm using them with powered USB risers without plugging the additional molex power cables into the board. And they are one of the coolest boards I had (chipset heatsinks tops out at around 50°C)
There might be different revisions though or bad batches or you were unlucky or used bad quality power supplies - or they are indeed bad and I was lucky but my experience is so far positive.

I love the Asrock H81 Pro BTC boards. For their price I find them amazing and I never had any issues with any of them.

This is interesting. The wallet seem to be based on Chrome?

Block height is 1461. Is it live or testnet?

Those figures cannot possibly be right. The Gainward card you've mentioned also have a TDP of 60 watts regardless of 6-pin or not (source). The PCI-E slot can provide 66W alone (5.5A on the 12V rail and 3A on the 3.3V rail). Additionally 6-pin can provide 75W and 8-pin can do 150W. The 38.5W TDP figure from the BIOS doesn't mean what we thought it would. Non-powered cards can pull 60 watts as well with stock BIOS. I both have ASUS and MSI non-powered cards and they do pull 60W. Besides, wherever you look even gaming benchmarks show close to 60 watt usage for all 750 Ti's.

Increasing the TDP should have zero effect for stock clocks, all it does is give headroom for overclocking. And in my case at least, overclocking is always more efficient as in it always scales better than power consumption. For example +150 Mhz on the core is 12% gain in hashrate and 11% increase in power consumption at the wall for x11, and it's +10%/+7% for quark and so on. Conversely, with downclocking the efficiency gets worse.

I'm sorry but trusting a random dude with your coins is beyond silly. Cryptos are decentralized and have trustless transactions for a reason, you're throwing that all out of the window if you're going to trust a random guy with your coins and shouldn't be surprised if you get scammed. I mean if giving a guy your coins and paying that guy to setup a service that will make you more coins is not dumb greed I don't know what is.

Boooo!

I see. Last time I checked an idle rig (750 Ti) used 65 watts (SSD, Pentium G3420 - 53W TDP) which means an extra 10.8 watts per card. That turns your numbers into 0.0875 Mh/W for a 750 Ti rig and 0.0884 Mh/W for a 970 rig for quark. I'm not sure if a 6 x 970 rig would get bottlenecked by a Pentium G3420 though. The poor density of the 750 Ti (having to buy more mobo/cpu/memory) is probably being offset by having to spend on a bigger PSU on a 970 rig. Unless you use multiple power supplies per rig but I'm not a big fan of that.

So it seems the difference is negligible and it all depends on the prices of the cards. Based on the numbers I could get them the 970 is favorable in my case. In other words, 1 watt of maxwell GPU power to me would cost 0.00935 BTC in case of a 970 and 0.01085 in case of going with 750 Ti - assuming quark is a good representation of other algos.

I'd guess the memory issue of the 970 isn't detrimental to any algo, maybe except for the few very memory hungry ones.

I'm curious to see figures of the 980 and from the 980 Ti once it's released.
