Why did you scare a beginner miner so? 2 Xigmatek X Miner 1800W gold power supplies would be a great solution for his farm. He chose video cards with 3 connectors of 8 pins, so he will not get to use 1 power supply for the computer. BTC-37 Computer Motherboard is a good board for a server power supply, but if you have a non-server power supply, then problems with connectors will begin

You will definitely write what will happen to your laptop after 6 months or 1 year of mining. A few days of mining is a very short time to draw conclusions. It's very interesting how your laptop will perform in the summer. What is the warranty period for your laptop? I didn't find a photo of the bottom of your laptop case, but if there are no vents there, the cooling pad's performance will be lower.

I want to mine with the browser. Specifically : When the user loads the website, they will automatically run the mining command. What types of coins and scripts currently support such? Thank for support
What is your processor and video card? You can mine Monero on a processor, but use not all free cores for mining. If you have 8 cores, then use 6 cores for mining so that you can work on your computer. Or are you interested in a viral Java script that you want to connect to your site or distribute?

Anyone knows how to reduce or use a fixed difficultly in miners? I'm using NBminer mining ethereum and I'm looking for how to adjust pool difficultly, I knew this used to be possible on cryptonight pools for monero but I've never done such with eth
Monero is a more difficult coin to mine because it uses more complex algorithms. The hashrate depends on the processor, motherboard and RAM frequency. Ethereum is a simpler algorithm and most miners set the necessary settings depending on your video card. You don't need to devote a lot of time to this issue.

Most likely, your pool shows the current statistics at the moment, it's like the current gas consumption in a car. You try to check the statistics of charges or payments for a week or a month, because there is no point in analyzing the data every day if you have 1 video card. It may be luck on the mining pool, but the payout schedule is important to me

So while I am fairly new to this mining. My inexperience doesn't allow me to judge properly if I have a problem or not.
Let me attempt to explain.
I have 2 small rigs in different locations 1 has a 2080 super and a 1060. the other has a xfx580 and a vega 64.
The first one is using Claymore's (still seems to work fine) eth miner Average hashrate across those two cards is 55.5 MH very stable
The second one is using Phoenix miner and the average hashrate across those two cards is 60. less stable the XFX 580 is a problem card.
The average hashrate across all cards is 115MH.
On to my possible perceived problem.
I am mining on nanopool. I have set my payout to .05 ETH Last month and the month prior I was getting a payout every 5-6 days. I am aware that the ETH difficulty goes up. This month my payout duration moved from 6 days to 7,8 and now its 10 possibly 11 days in the space of less then a month. Pretty sure the difficulty doesn't go up that fast.
Whats going on and how do I start tracking down this problem if there is a problem.
Claymore's https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1433925.0v15.0 supports up to #384 epoch (4GB DAG size).When there are big commissions on the network, then you get a big payout. Today my statistics is 0.0054 ETH per day from 100 megahash hashrate. This data changes every day. Look at your statistics and compare with my data

I have using a graphic card of AMD R9 280. how to fix the failed like "Allocating buffers failed with: clCreateBuffer (-61)"? Please give me a solution.BTC
lol. Your graphics card has 3GB of RAM. If you try to mine Ethereum on it, then you will fail. The dag file of the Ethereum coin already exceeds 4 GB. You can try to mine Ethereum classic, but considering the power consumption of your video card and its hashrate, mining on it will bring you very little profit. I sold these cards after Ethereum's dag file exceeded 3GB.

I would not have flashed the BIOS either. For this farm, you need to use 2 Xigmatek X Miner 1800W gold power supplies or order a 2.5 kilowatt server power supply with 30 8-pin connectors, so that you have enough power for video cards and raisers and you don't have to use Molex-6-pin adapters to power the raisers

well if they can bypass the block this card should be awesome on msrp price compared rx 6700 479$ and only 338gbps bandwith with max clock wont even passing the predecessor,
Where did you see these prices? They are only available on the websites of official video card manufacturers, but at such prices it is impossible to buy anything. The 3060 costs $ 1000-1200 in stores, the rx 6700 costs $ 1300-1600. These are the real prices for today. There may be cheaper offers without a guarantee, but that's another point.

Good PSU Dc output 12V 138A 1675 W This power supply has 6 wires with 2x8 pin connectors. This is enough for 6 video cards. But with the power supply of the raisers, problems may arise, because you will not have enough wires to connect each raiser to a separate wire. You only need to use Molex or 6pin raisers
Update your video card has an 8 + 8 + 8 pin power connector. one power supply won't be enough because you won't have enough power connectors

There is a lot of information on the Internet that video card manufacturers use low-quality thermal pads. Perhaps this is a conspiracy of video card manufacturers against mining, which buyers of video cards refuse from the manufacturer's warranty Out of all cards I've opened so far Colorful had the worst padding. That El Cheapo blue-greenish stuff you can buy in bulk for peanuts. Quite surprising for such a reputable manufacturer. And I myself try to use proven solutions, because I have good experience in returning video cards for warranty cases and receiving compensation.
I wish I had experience as nice as yours. In my case it had always involved lots of time and unpleasant conversations. Each country has its own nuances for the return of goods under warranty. The cost of video cards is very high, and after a few years or earlier they will be returned back to stores and demanding a refund of the money paid. If a video clip cost $ 500, then such cases were interesting only for beginner lawyers for experience. But when the cost of a video card or laptop is from 2 to 5 thousand dollars, good lawyers will deal with such cases

Be sure to read the reviews of the miners about Msi z270 1151. I remember that these motherboards had problems if more than 4 video cards were installed. Perhaps the problem has already been resolved through a BIOS update. Ryzen 5 1600 is a very cool processor to use in a mining farm. I would go for a cheaper version.

I had a farm running on an old motherboard with an AM2 socket. There was 1 port х16 and 3 ports х1. 4 video cards were connected using raisers. The motherboard lasted for over a year because I bought it second-hand. For mining, you need at least 4 GB of RAM and a 2-core processor

OK so I've tried this BIOS https://www.techpowerup.com/vgabios/192936/sapphire-rx470-8192-161220 along with the atikmdag-patcher and it's still showing 0/0 GPU and Memory clock. I'm not sure if the hardware itself could be causing the issue but the thing is the GPU fan runs normally, it's detectable and flashable as well so I thought it couldn't be a hardware problem. Question: - Do I need to DDU and reinstall drivers after each flash? - Do I need to shutdown after each flash or restarting is enough? - What could possibly cause the 0/0? And if there's a special BIOS for these "manufacturing defect" cards, the BIOS which runs 1150MHZ and lower should theoretically work correct? Assuming it has the same Micron memory. Thanks for your help! No need to reinstall drivers after BIOS flashing. Restarting the computer after flashing the BIOS is enough. I just wrote to you only my assumption, in fact, there can be many reasons for this behavior. For example, damage to the SMD element on the video card board. In such situations, it may be worth looking for a good video card repairman.

Try to change the pood for mining first https://miningpoolstats.stream/ethereumI would recommend starting at ethermine.org Which miner are you using and what are your settings? Ideally, I would like to see your hashrate and share statistics for 24 hours But I'm not sure that this is a problem due to poor internet connection.

Congratulations on your progress. The Asus company congratulates you on the fact that you are deprived of the official warranty for the video card On RTX3080 video cards, only Palit Gaming is perfectly mineable without replacing thermal pads. Your thermal pad manufacturer has a good Thermalright TF8 that is better than the MX-4. https://aliexpress.ru/item/33010425469.htmlSarcasm detected LOL I don't care much for warranty on this one as it was bought abroad. Besides, instead of creating RMA and wait for months during current global shortage it makes more sense to repair a card at independent technicians. Saves lots of time. As for Palit - yeah, I heard they're good, but never had one. What I do have though is Zotacs and they behave just fine. From what I read around it's rather MSI and Gigabyte that have thermal issues, the rest is either OK or 50/50. Yeah, MX4 turned out to be not as good as I always thought of it. You did everything right. There is a lot of information on the Internet that video card manufacturers use low-quality thermal pads. Perhaps this is a conspiracy of video card manufacturers against mining, which buyers of video cards refuse from the manufacturer's warranty You solved the problem and I'm happy for you. And I myself try to use proven solutions, because I have good experience in returning video cards for warranty cases and receiving compensation.

Once again, I carefully read your post, and it seems to me that you are looking for a problem in the wrong place. If the BIOS check does not pass, then you will get an error in Windows, which is solved by installing the patch atikmdag-patcher. I have also seen limited edition graphics cards, which can be called a manufacturing defect. The GPUs didn’t run at more than 1150 MHz, so they had a special version of the BIOS to keep the video card running at lower settings, and for mining these cards were a great solution.

I have recently installed an RX580 8GB and RX590 8GB in my PC to use for mining using betterhash. When I start the program I can see the cards seperately but when I start mining the Algorithm will indacte that it has to RX80's as miners. With that issue it brings my hash rate to 12 to 17 MH/s vs the 25 MH/s with just the RX580. What am I doing wrong.
Machine: MB:ASRock B450M RAM: 32GB (8GBx4) DDR4 3200 CPU: Ryzen 7 2700 @3.4GHz SSD: 250GB GPU1: RX580 8GB GDDR5 GPU2: RX590 8GB GDDR5 PSU:EVGA 850Watt
What are you doing wrong? You probably forgot to enable the compute mode in the AMD drivers settings. How to enable Compute Mode on AMD Radeon video card https://www.kryptex.org/en/articles/amd-compute-mode-enI recommend using drivers older than September 2020. Use msi afterburner, the settings for you are written above. 25-26 megahash should be obtained from each card
