Heliox - just to update that I managed to get the -175mV working on the new batch of Nanos.
I have not got all 6 cards in a complete setup yet, but testing on 1 card is a success. I will run it overnight before flashing the other cards. I will report the kill-lo-watt meter readings tomorrow morning.
As of now, with -175mV rom: -6mV,1040/300 = 30.3MHs at fans= fix 60%, temps 67-68c and stock -175mV,800/300 = 22.4MHs, temps 62-63c, auto fans
I am tempted to try the -200mV rom.
Is it normal that some rigs will have 150 roms and some 175 roms, mixed configs in your environment?
how do you guys mnaage to raise the core on the modded rom cards ? i have several -175 six card rigs and th seccnd i change to core from 800 to even 950 the box crashes In Windows, you can use the MSI afterburner to raise/reduce the core voltage. The memory voltage is not changeable. Read my post i said i tried that and it box crashes whenever i change the core from the 800 to anything higer windows 10, even with a clean install same thing happens. Do you mean even if you raise the core voltage to higher levels, that does not support the higher core frequency? core freqency you mean and yes the modded rom cards wont let me raise the core freqency frm 800 stock cards start at 1000 and i have no problems raising it up to 1060

how do you guys mnaage to raise the core on the modded rom cards ? i have several -175 six card rigs and th seccnd i change to core from 800 to even 950 the box crashes I was wondering why I was able to do it and many have commented that they cannot. I think I know why. My H81 is powered molex and my USB3 risers are also powered -- both powered. with a kickass PSU like EVGA-G2 1300w or 1600w, cranking it up to maximum was a breeze. its not a psu issue since i should be able to up the core to like 950 on a single card with my 1000 watt evga psu even tweaking one card leads to bsod and i have tried all the cards individually to see if its a specific card these are all with the 175 rom

thanks i got my 78 twitter bonus , was not even expecting it with all the whining i see here
really nice work so far i have around 20k waves now

Yes and it turned into a scam. Maybe 150 gpus were paid for and the guy scammed everyone.
I have a contact at provantage.com. I could ask if he can get bulk and what discount he will give.
I live in New Jersey 07731 zip.
Phil,
I would think it would be worth looking into.
Between here and the ETH forum, I would think there would be a lot of interest.
I emailed for a 50 card price and a 100 card price. If I do this it has to be a decent price. would need to be like 500 cards to get a good price lol

I hope that the price delta between 4/8gb versions won't be too large (like 199/229 USD). 8 gb of ram nowadays are useful for many algos, not just ethereum.
There are no algos that require 8gb of memory. ETH is the only algo that requires at least 2gb of memory, and should be enough until the end of the year. yeah but if and when eth goes pos and a newer comes comes up the developers may want to make 4gb the lowest you can use and 6gb or 8gb more important. My logic would be if AMD of Nvidia push a new coin by paying a few developers to build one they would want to make it really asic resistant and that the 1070 or r9 480 are much better to mine with. At this point I have 4 r9 nanos 7 r9 390s 1 r9 380 not sure what I will do next. i would wait for the new card, they are so much better for consumption alone, it's not even funny and the 1070 despite its initial price, is still better than any amd nope it cant dual mine

Escrow through Ognasty? If yes, I would get 5 to start with.
No , at the moment , but we accept paypal. haha

I need a new graphics card and was just about to buy one when they announced the RX480. Would be interested to see how this mines etherium or other altcoins. $200 seems like a good deal for this card.
By the moment "better" cards will be released and available ETH may drop in price, difficulty increases etc not immediately, huge farm can not afford to change each of their gpu to the new one, so only small farm will have an advantage I've seen the other post of the 27mh on 1070.
There is zero evidence to backup his claim.
Until I see pictures or posts from a trusted user then I will remain suspicious.
I do respect the community - i'll post the picture of the rig with 6 1080s running on windows It will be nice to gain a point of trust in exchange though ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) Please do so at your earliest convenience, I am debating between Nanos and 1080s. You should consider 1070 - even if they fix the perf - still 1070 is a better buy - i dont have one at the moment - but 6 1080 should look nice ![Wink](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/wink.gif) I fail to see how a 400$ card with less perf of a 200$ card can translate to being "a better buy". you need to read it again, he mean a better buy compared to the 1080, not 480 also 480 real hash is yet to be seen could be only 22MH at 150w real price of custom design is also different than target price, we might speak about a less difference also there is an algo right now on where nvidia is vastly better, i don't buy a card only because of etheruem You must be kidding no other algo is worth mining even close to ethereum when ethereum ends in six months I wil sell all my cards like most others will. Unless you have free power or under 5 cents which 90% of people do Mining ends with eth most likely

The problem here is the memory bandwidth - you are going to see the same for 480 So hitting this limit you can ether go dual miner way and utilize the board to its max or drop GPU voltage and/or clocks to see if you have same hashrate Basically you can hash at the same speed with less power used
So it was all about that 512 against 256 mem band? I guess there will be no cheap 290's anymore... Not exactly - of course raw bus make an impact but its also dependent on algo - I think dual miner will be better for nv vs amd - we'll see if it happens in near future Hmm.. for me it looks like dcr pow mining days are gone... decred is useless to mine even at a side mining at this point, so i would not care much about dual miner, would only increase consumption Hmm Idk bout that nano does 25mhs eth and 1200 dcr for around 140 watts mueasurd at the wall eth alone is 100 watts so that's only 40 more watts for 1200 dcr 390 and 290x does like 870 dcr for 50 more wat Quite worth it Imo for the newer cards older cards not so much 1200 decred it's like 0.05 more per month, for a single gpu, with 1kwh more per day or 30 more per month only worth it for a big farm with cheap electricity, and this only for the nano, 870 with 50, is worse I ran the numbers and my 2700 mhs farm gets the same hash using claymore and an additional 50mhs dcr basically 20 -25 dcr a day which right now is worth $36 extra a day far outstripping the extra power use if youre not dual mining youre missing out which is why i;m dumping my 500 mhs of 970 hash. If i had a full stack of AMD for the whole 2700mhs id be at like 30-40 dcr a day far more profitable than eth alone. I'' be buying amd 480s over 1070s if they turn out to be decent dual mining champs

SCAM ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) yes. wallet and freecoins +faucet available. Infos are on the OP Lol this is for real?

wat
that cant be right, .02 would be like 10usd I see 1-3 usd at the max short term I'd consider myself fortunate if it started off at 50 cents. Nah if its less that a dollar its a huge fail ICO price is around .19 cents now with all the new money per Wave LISK was at 10x IPO and currently after the dump is a 4X, wave seems to have more hype and a better team than lisk... ETH was at 6x IPO at launch and currently its at ... lets not even go there lol if wave is not at least 8-10x IPO on launch which is around $1.20 its a short term fail in my book

sorry was away for the weekend...and yes I am under NDA so I can't say much other than what is publicly available. Chips are indeed BW's latest 1402 14nm. About 50 GH a chip @ .1 w/gh.
So don't tell us anything that is covered by the NDA, just tell us what your plans are for the chips? Rich My plans involve discussing the deal with BW so thats the issue there. And the "deal" is a bit at odds with my plan for producing small affordable miners for you guys which is the problem currently. I was going to stay away from stick miners since the high end of the stick miner range (for both compaq and my moonlander) was around 10W which cause a bit of headaches for USB powered devices/hubs...since most hubs can't provide that much clean power. The good thing about this chip is the high end is 5w, which would make it a prefect stick miner. My "ideal" plan would be around a 4-5 chip "pod" miner ~200GH @ 20 watts (ridiculously small, think a 2x2x2 inch box) that could connect up to 10 of them on a single pcie power connector, and would have a separate controller box. So essentially you would buy the pcie cable connector (or make one), the controller box, then add as many pods as you would like (up to 20 chained). So you would have miner "building blocks" and its up to the user how much they want to spend and how large to make the miner. Then lets say a new chips comes out, all you would have to do is swap out the board on the mini-pods for upgrades (same controller/powersetup and you would reuse the pod box/fan). I'd throw some BTC in as well if a solid and workable plan is put forward

And what are these technical difficulties that you speak of? You can't be suggesting that Ethereum has technical difficulties?
ETH will die from an inflated blockchain later in any case. In case the POS does even work. Why do you think all the POS coins have lost so much in the past months? Because POS is working fine and is the future or what? Nope, POS is broken and ETH will be broken too. Also it suffers from centralisation in more than one aspect. The DAO will die off due to human error. All this may take several months or even years to come to the surface in full bloom, but it will. You have been warned. It actually looks an awful lot like a pyramid sheme. But none of my business, what you're doing with your $$$. Eth devs are smarter than that they have a solid testnet and the ability to delay POS as long as it takes to get it right. Your comment is way off There are reasons to dislike the Eth platform but the POTENTIAL move to pos is not one of them.

Well I grabbed around 6 btc worth or 20k or so wave to match my 20k DAO investment I hope these ruSkies don't run off with my btc lol

If you're pulling 18000 watts a month chances are you're making enough money to rent a small warehouse for a few hundred a month. You'd also get to pay cheaper commercial electricity rates, usually better cooling, more room to expand, etc!
That would cut into his profits heavily... Quite correct not to talk of the time it takes sometimes to update and fix the gpu rigs when the sometimes go down Having my rigs close and not paying for the space negates any advantage in electricity discounts I've run the numbers
