4363  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: How will this change the world of mining?? GTX 1080 / 1070 on: July 12, 2016, 08:57:10 PM
Unless you live in Washington where electricity is 7.6 cents per kw, all the conventional cards 270,270X,280,280X.290.290X,370,370X,390,390X are not worth mining. Unless you believe the price will go up again someday which I think is what is driving the network hashrate of Ethereum currently. Miners have not lost faith in future price speculation. Of course this will not hold up forever as they keep dishing out the dough come bill time. Rather than wear out rigs on little profit or negative return it is smarter to turn them off and either wait for a profitable endeavor or liquidate assets...The time of Gpu rig building for profit has been over for awhile. The new cards that are more efficient carry such a high price tag, ROI probabilities are not good. 

again this, those who do not factor in, resale value of their investment, have not the right to talk about roi at all

you guys are talking like your card will be worth zero after you sell them when mining end, no they are worth like 80% of initial value especially if they belong to a new generation, this is not true for old card, they are worthless for gamers...

for example the 1070 will e easily sold for 350 even after two years until Volta will be out

isn't neos 1MH for 970+960 really slow? i can do 750 with just a 970...
4365  Economy / Speculation / Re: Price increase to $1000+ again soon. What will you do? on: July 12, 2016, 04:43:52 PM
The price of bitcoin is unlikely to ever reach $1,000 again. Also, if it starts irrationally working its way up to near $1,000 there are a lot of people eager to sell and the price will catastrophically collapse again. Bitcoin is in a long term downtrend, though there will be ups and downs as people are slow to realize this confirmed fact.

mmh dunno if this is another chill account or what, but you should now that the price is increasing at a slower rate this time, and thinking ever once that it will happen the same thign happened with the 1200 ath is a bit stupid

the pattern here is increase then stagnation then another increase, those increases are really slow and rock solid this time, 1000 will be a thing of the past very soon

The 390 g1 gaming comes with a 6 pin and a 8 pin connector.

6pin= 75Watt
8pin= 150Watt
Motherboard 66 watt

MAX power is 291 watt, but the wall readings is abit higher. (Powered usb risers)

there is nothing stopping the card to draw more than those "max" values.
only thing that matters is power meter at the wall plug.

yes in fact in that cse some of those thing, will simply melt away

and, again, pure Mh/s don't matter: it's efficiency that matters (Mh/s)/W, unless you run on free power.

yeah also 300w for 40MH is not that impressive actually, because 6 x 970 can do the same, 120MH at 900w(6 x 140w + system) and without any tweaking just PL limited to 60%, like i've done in my case

if we were to ignore the consumption we would still use monsters like 7990 or 290x2(this can do 51MH)

I don't know about you guys but for me it is profit that matters.

Most of the time some powersaving brings you more profits but not always. Best hash/ watt and I am loosing profits everyday with every card I have.

When reading these watt/hash threads this starts to look like some loudest whisper contest. Like the_ultimate_mining_GPU would consume zero watts and hash 2Mh/s eth. Or like winner of GP race was that guy who had most fuel left after race.

Really, do your math. Many of you are loosing profits.

I am still happily running some 295x2. Like every hawaii they do at least 34MH/ core without mods. If I ask they deliver, currently I am not asking so much.


yeah but final profit is minus cost of electricity, you must factor this, and there is no 0 electricity

it's all about if you need more efficency, for me it's important, and i understand that for other is not that important, because they have 5 cent electricity or lower(still important for them if they have 100 gpu or more)

the same for initial investment, it's not that important you can sell later your card, your card will not be worth zero in few months if ever, especially if they are new generation gpu

a 970 cost less than 200 euro now, the dual mining is possible for nvidia too, just no one wants to do it, i remember you were working on one....

where? link please,....

it's private if it ever exist...

maybe he was referring to the 970 at less than 200

ah i sold mine for 220 few days ago on ebay(g1 gaming), below 200 i see them on different private website here in euro

Hey,

I got bored with ETH  Grin and decided to give this a spin. Forked the SIA GPU Miner written in C and added a few things:

- MSVC project files for those who want to hack on it using Windows.
- pool support using -Q parameter (works similar to Go Miner)
- took the cl kernel from the GO miner to improve performance (roughly +18% on a 7950)
- x64 Windows binaries zipped up in the bin folder.

Planning to improve nvidia opencl performance using some inline PTX asm. This should bring performance close(r) to the native CUDA miners around.
Perhaps improve the CL performance a bit, but that's a crowded market these days.

If you like poking around in CL, there's an undocumented command line parameter (-k filename) that allows you to provide a custom CL kernel.

https://github.com/Genoil/Sia-GPU-Miner

Have fun!

[edit]

it looks like the optimized kernel using uitn2 needs some work. the client reports found blocks, but my hashrate doesn't show any longer on nanopool. I'll wait a little while, may need to revert back and pay closer attention to what results it gives. stay tuned.

is cuda that unfriendly to code with, that it's better to go with opencl first?

it's true, in fact a coin will never die because of dumping, like many believe, a coin will always die because of low demand, low amount of buyers, that's it

this because dumping is fixed, tnx to the block reward/diff, instead demand is not fixed, demand is the important factor to determine the value

I mine @ 27MHASH + 415MHASH sia. I save 160watt per card. Then I can mine with 2x the number of cards. A brand new 390 only cost around 250$

a 970 cost less than 200 euro now, the dual mining is possible for nvidia too, just no one wants to do it, i remember you were working on one....

4373  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: What is the best GPU to mine ALT coins? on: July 12, 2016, 07:02:23 AM
both are important (perhaps a little more the wattage consumed)... so... you say that it'd be a good option RX 480?

personally i think the best option right now is the 1070 at $400 or around that, 480 is limited to ethereum only unless you want to pay for optimized algo privately

1070 is good on any algo(but for ethereum you need to wait some drivers that will be available in two weeks or so), or you can wait for the 1060, which seems good too
4374  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: GTX 1060 Announced, July 19th on: July 12, 2016, 06:39:32 AM
What's even better about the 1060 is that the custom cards will be available from Day 1.

it seems that the price will not be so high like many other think, for europe might be 300 euro, which is not bad at all
4375  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: What is the best GPU to mine ALT coins? on: July 12, 2016, 05:53:07 AM
480 would be good if optimized for other algo but since in amd world top algo are private you get bad hash for neos for example, and also lyra2v2, and etheruem is not a top algo anymore

also it depend on your electricity, if for you is more important the initial investment or the wattage consumed

The expensive 16nm chips are equipped with slow ggr5 memory and a slow 256bit bus.
My modded 512bit bussed 28nm r9 390 mine Etherum @ 39MHASH (full power, single card) or 27MHASH with lower power than the gtx 970. (messured in the wall). With the 390 I get I shitload of SIA coins for free, thanks to Claymore.

I have looked at klaust's blake2s cuda kernal. I could only gain 7%.



can you post a screen of your 390 doing 39MH, because i find it hard to believe this not even Wolfo was able to reach that hash(i see his highest was 33MH)

and even if that was possible your consumption was probably 350w with a single gpu, a 1070 can do on linux 37MH with 150w, so no you can't beat 16nm sry
4377  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Radeon released RX 480. (Card is Released) on: July 11, 2016, 04:50:18 PM
Managed to put 6 RX 480 on a mobo using Corsair RM1000i 1000W. Running fine for an hour or so. Will update if my rig shuts down.

P/S: Did not test it with watt meter
Setting: Stock Memory, GPU & Power, 60~80 Temperature, 2000~4000 Fan Speed
Rig: Intel Celeron, 8GB RAM, 1TB HDD, MSI Z87-GD65


you don't need a wattmeter actually, just install corsair link, will show the wattage in and out

so where are all the pools here, there are like 600MH hiding somewhere, and i remember solo mining was not possible, there is a private pool or something?

someone has the hashrate for a 070 with this coin? should be around 2GH with oc, but i want to be sure

1.6G@1900core with gominer, 1.4G with KlausT

less with klaust which is using cuda how so? seems strange, i see remember 2300 for a 1080 with oc, so a single 1070 should do 1800 with oc

yes i remembered well look https://www.reddit.com/r/siacoin/wiki/mining
