i was looking at these faucets any recommendations
Faucets as such are not at all profitable and it can take very long time to even get a dollar from such said faucets. If you are keen to earn some coin, I'll recommend checking out the bounty section. OR buy some coin as it cannot get cheaper then it already is. |

its been about a year since i last mined; was doing equihash for Zclassic last on miningpoolhub. i know im not going to make anything after electric costs, just want to do to keep up with whats happening in the crypto mining world. Just wondering what algo and coins are best for 1080ti mining? and which miner, what pools, and exchanges should i use?
Try to look into the Announcement Section and check out new coins. As of now, the profitability is near to zero for the coins that are popular. Do some research on it. Anyway, Grin and BEAM are looking good for now which is where the GPU mining wagon is currently hashing on. |

Nice addition to my bookmark. Appreciate for spreading the word about it.
I didn't expect any ASIC to make that much in this bearish of a market but I was surprised to know that Obelisk is making $50/day which is quite good, to be honest.

This is my methodology to test GPUs before selling them off.
I usually check the fans first to see if there is any mechanical issue with them by running the fans at 100% for half an hour.
If that goes well, I start with cleaning the GPU by removing the dust with compressed air, then changing the thermal paste. ( The goal is to make it look as new as possible)
Next is to run various benchmarks with HWinfo running in the background to check for high temps, Comparing the score with the identical GPU.
(Benchmarks like Firestrike, Timespy in 3DMark and Uni-engine)
At last, box it up and sale!

I read a lot before I invested in any hardware and all had the same opinion regarding Gigabyte GPUs, The fan being the worst part.

It's about time ETH devs starting to realise that 51% attack is not impossible if the ASICs for ETH gets more efficient and only a few has the power to mass produce and run it. Moreover, any hardfork in the future will also be hindered because of this.

A detailed tutorial!
Anyway, Do you have numbers for the hashrate you are getting with the GPU?

Setting up a new miner following the mining.help guide. It provides a link to download and use Claymore 10.2, but when I try to run my bat file the miner doesn't go anywhere. Bat file contents: EthDcrMiner64.exe -epool ssl://us1.ethermine.org:5555 -ewal 0x1D497Dd122b4eb7253B4799Deb98664E65F68Fdb.ACI1 -epsw x  Any help is appreciated. Thanks. Disable dual mining and it should solve your problem. |

Can some developer make an argon2d GPU CUDA miner for windows (no matter how fast mining will be)? Please!
Post this in the bounty thread and provide some kind of incentives as this will attract developers to work on it. |

How the hell do you dual mine two core-bound algorithms?  By dreaming about it. |

Really no surprise here.
The new Nvidia GPU lineup has been a lot dissapointing with no RTX ON support yet in the real world, price point and now the mining performance.
The GTX 1080 is still a great buy and provides a better price to profit ratio than this card.
Anyway, nice benchmarking. I would love to see an update on benchmarks running on the Windows OS.

There are already ASICs out there for every algorithm that Digibyte supports.
So No, It won't be profitable to mine with GTX 1050ti.

A great compilation of data and yes, the energy consumption for the mining of Equishash coins has dropped significantly but day by day the majority of the net hash is growing under ASIC territory which is not good for GPU mining, thus more and more centralization to the ASIC companies.
I'm not against ASIC but the companies who manufacture ASICs and their bad market practices.

The new fork is said to lower fpga by more then 50 percent. Maybe 75 percent.
So 14kh May drop to 7kh or even 3.5 kh
While a gpu should drop 10 percent.
If a 500 dollar new vega does 1800 hashand drops to 1600 hash it is not bad
If a 3000 dollar FPGA drops from 14000 hash to 7000 hash or maybe 3500 hash then gpus will recover.
This is a big fork. If the hash rate does not drop a lot the xmr will lose out
So good to know that at least one of the coins - Monero is listening to their community, miners to support them and the GPU mining. All my rigs are pointed towards Monero for quite a while now and if anyone checks the price then you will see that Monero has been very stable whereas BTC, ETH and other cryptocurrencies had a really hard time, Most disappointing was ETH. |

First, don't use MSI AB to tune your Vega GPUs for mining. Go with OverdriveNtool and check out this website dedicated to the information for Vega Mining. It will help! http://vega.miningguides.com/ |

At that price, if there is even one. It's stellar.

Your default power consumption for the above GPUs is still very high.
Try to decrease the power limit percentage rather than setting a power limit on them.
If the core and memory both are important, try to work out as same as you are doing with memory or core, until it hits the error and if still, they are not stable. Underclock a bit.

Well, it's simple.
The more the PCIe slots, the lesser the stability.
Well, you don't want to have downtime with one 19 GPU rig where stability will be a big issue whereas 8-10 GPUs in a rig where the balance between stability and the N.of.(GPUs) is ideal.
