you have -esm 3 in the command line?

tell that to the folks in cyprus.

sounds like what i have, the 470 connected to the kvm gets ~10% lower hashrate. 26 mhs vs the other 470 at 29.x mhs. . asm is on, and -dcri is 30 on both cards.

both ran the same on 8.1

only difference in the 470s is the memory, one samsung, one hynix. both are strap modded.

i am dual mining dcr if that makes any difference

os is windows 7

thanks for the link. good read. helps a lot in understanding this mess.

nope cant do it. one or the other, plus a second coin like decred or sia

well if it were nash it would certainly solve the "problem" of the satoshi mined million coins suddenly being sold and crashing the price of bitcoin.

but as someone else pointed out (sorry forgot who) wouldnt nash known of that potential problem and  publicly burned the coins as they were mined. xfer then to an unspendable address or something. i mean if perfect money were the intent it shouldnt have the risk of a price crash built into it.

its as if satoshi didnt realize how important bitcoin would become. nash would of.

thanks for the explanations, i wasnt sure how asicboost was/is/could be implemented, and if it would suddenly doorstop a bunch of hardware. sounds like bitmain stuff will work either way, just with a 20% boost with proper firmware.

if segwit activates bitmain can suck an egg for all i care but the ordinary miners with bitmain tech would get destroyed.. if say S9s cannot mine segwit blocks im just wondering what all the folks with S9s etc  will do when all their gear turning into doorstops overnight.

they would be forced to support a forked BU based chain i guess. whether they agree with BU or not.

glad im gpu mining alts..

this is probably obvious but i havent seen a clear yes/no answer on this:

if segwit activates on btc (fat chance) will bitmains recent asics stop hashing? if so which models?

i dual mine with my powercolor single fan red devil 470. temps are in line with my msi dual fan 470. but the single fan card runs at higher rpm so is a bit noisier.

i got into it just to see if one could indeed make money of my GPUs (a HD4850). seemed too good to be true. and i did it mainly to prove a point to my wife that our computers were not just a money pit

of course it did make some money and i was able to exchange it for USD in my bank account  via mt gox and dwolla.  and after a couple months i grabbed more gpus (HD6870, HD5830s) and built a mining rig. this was around 2011. went with gpus, then fpgas and finally early asics.

made a decent amount, had some nice vacations and bought some toys. didnt really save a lot as i was unsure of its long term viability. 

at this point i gpu mine (alts, convert most to btc but i do save some alts) to be part of the Grand Experiment. still cash coins in here and there but now im more into saving coin long term.

i also have a powercolor red dragon 4gb single fan with samsung memory. goes good on eth with the 1750 strap mod but it has a crappy hsf so runs warm.

same here. nicehash decred pool rejects all shares for a while, then for no apparent reason the shares start getting accepted. long term average winds up being ~50% accepted.

seems to be no rhyme or reason to this.

bitnet. short, simple and to the point. instantly recognizable.

openshare has nothing to suggest blockchain tech. sounds like an openoffice module.

i had it right in the .bat, just not in the post 

when mining 1st starts it seems to get a lot rejects but then after a bit it settles down and shares get accepted.

i wound up with 100% rejects on nicehash when i specified -decri values. i deleted that setting (no -decri on command line) and shares started being accepted again.

kinda odd as before it dual mined dec with a -decri 60 setting no problem.

ive taken to pointing my ir temp gun at pcie and psu connectors every couple weeks or so for the last year, ever since i had a seasonic 750 psu melt its pcie connectors on the psu side (seasonic had a bad run of cables a few years ago when i bought it).

i remember taking needle nose pliers to some female molex connectors years ago as they would loosen up on some connectors.

i have a tube of no ox that i use for flashlights and my r/c cars. havent used it on computers yet but its a good idea.

i found no difference on my 390 with 15.12 or 16.11.x drivers.

31 mhs @ 1100/1500 sapphire nitro

my nicehash dashboard showed 0 speed on dcr and my 2 rigs started getting 100% rejects as of last night. so this morning i switched to eth only.
