64GB pagefile
the pagefile is a windows thing....and you cant run more than 8 of one brand of card in windows so literally NOONE will be tryin to run this board on windows with 19 cards Good to know. I thought it was a universal OS requirement to have as much RAM+pagefile as much is required by all the GPU memory that's assigned to be used. Though thinking about it, it shouldn't really happen under windows either (meaning it's a silly bug) because that space is never used, just needs to be there for a second. Thinking about it even further, initializing cards one after the other should propably get rid of the issue though I'm not sure, just spitting balls. |

Sounds great until you have to troubleshoot frequent crashes due to a failure.
You can and will have cards that will behave badly and each riser has 3 parts (the riser itself, the cable and the small PCB going into the PCIE slot) so that's already 76 points of failure making it a PITA to troubleshoot.
And multiple PSUs can also make things unstable/difficult and you need a very good and expensive CPU for some miners and tons of memory and (preferably SSD) for I'm guessing 64GB pagefile so more GPU density isn't that much cheaper.
If it works though, it's nice but I much more prefer simple, 4-6 card rigs with a single PSU with a bunch of wallets I solomine to or stake distributed over them.

This is cool, thank you.
Though I'd be more interested in watching stats across multiple rigs.
I mean, if you have a https://freeboard.io account, you can bundle stats from multiple rigs. Sent a pm a while back. |

There's literally no reason to assume anyone controls that address.
You pretty much burned your coins.
Never, ever type addresses by hand, always copy/paste or use QR.

ICOs are both centralized and rely on trust and therefore go against the basics of crypto by design so the only cleaning up is to discard ICOs altogether.

but the functionality of the token in the sale of one's excess bandwith doesn't provide any value? I dont know another project like this.
How do you propose buying bandwidth - on mobile? It doesn't matter which site you're downloading from, your bandwith is calulated regardless of VPN or P2P. And if you're not on mobile the service is that much more useless as there are dozens of established and trustworthy VPN services for minimal fees. So assuming it's for mobile, I don't think you can have a 2/3/4G/LTE mesh network without using your providers towers and therefore calculating your bandwidth. Also, they say Privatix exists and "Since 2015, more than 750,000 users have used this service." So why ask for money? If it clealry works by now why ask for scammy ICO funds? Granted I didn't read the whole whitepaper (I got dizzy after all the ICO bullshit) but it seems like it's nothing but another lazy and easy to use ERC20 plug and play useless cashgrab ICO token with some major premine as well. |

Premined ICO scam bullshit which sounds too much like PIVX - which is a legit project.

Based on my experience over the years;
Sata can handle way less than Molex on paper, true (unless you use sata-molex cables), but sata can really handle current above its spec.
The only time I had melted cables is when I plugged 2 x GTX 750 Ti's (60W TDP) that had no aux 6-pin connections on the same molex and/or sata cable (as in, both cables got way too hot). For cards that had 6-pin, it didn't matter, both sata and molex cables were equally, slightly warm.
Simple and safe rule of thumb to follow is to try and only plug one card per sata or molex, 2 at most and you'll be fine after you check the temp of the cables after a few hours of use.
Unless you edit the BIOS and set the PCI link as a primary source of power or increase it beyond 60/72/75 watts or whatever the defulat is you'll be fine because all my nvidia cards prioritized electricity intake from 6/8-pins and I've been mining since Kepler (GTX 6xx series).

Depends on the balance each connection is taxed.
Also, I rather use mnolex as it's pretty difficulty to find a PSU that can support both the cards and the risers solely through 6/8-pins. And modified server PSUs are a bit of a gamble.

More trouble than worth even with nearly free electricity because;
- they use a lot of electricity while being reaaaalllly slow (compared to even the lowest end current gen GPUs);
- most miner softwares are not compatible with old cards (at least on nvidia side, don't know about AMD) as they don't support newer compute versions;
- you have to spend a lot on other computer parts per 6 cards (CPU/mobo/ram/psu/disk drive);
- they are prone to die "early";
- even cheap current or even last gen GPUs vastly outperform them for fraction of the electricity and other PC components' price.

Get the cheapest and oldest laptop you can imo. It beats all centralized staking services plus the battery acts as a UPS.

You can never be sure as the payload can be encrypted and triggered anytime and crypto people discarding warnings as "it's just a false positive bro" doesn't help either.
1: Your best bet is to run each wallet in a virtual machine - or on a rig with a throwaway OS which gets replaced periodically.
2: Your second best bet is to have a sandbox software like Sandboxie and set it up so that anything running inside it has no read privileges to important folders (like AppData/Local & Roaming) which makes things more complicated since if a software legitimately tries to write into Roaming, and is prohibited will throw an error. You have to use custom wallet data folders and keep custom browser user data folders (to avoid cookies and user sessions being stolen).
3rd, mostly useless option: using any antivirus with live protection.
4th (absolutely useless) trusting online antivirus softwares' on the wallet exe.

At the moment, the sleeping giant is DOGE
keep watching...
Lmao, Doge is worth nothing and will never achieve anything, pure shitcoin tbh. These statements I keep hearing since the first year of DOGE... And they keep growing... doges seem to be more stable as many other coins. Both DOGE and LTC offer NOTHING extra. They're both the simplest possible altcoins possible. They have no bright future; they're between Bitcoin and altcoins - both of which does each aspects better. The only thing going for them is market manipulation by massive bagholders - as it is blatantly the case for years. There's literally no sane reason to invest into any of them; you're either better of investing into BTC or another, more specific altcoin (depending on your priorities) - both of which doing something way better than DOGE/LTC. Investing in any of them does not only come under the definition of gambling, but also pretty much stupid. |

Hey sp_, there is new open-source miner for NXS that doesnt use CPU with 8 GPUs running.
And, 1080ti speed is 240 MH/s and it is much faster than your last miner version (190MH/s)
And, there is no need to overclock GPUs and run at crazy intensities like you recommend to do, it works faster and much stable.
AND... It finds a blocks like it should. (which is not likely for your NXS miners)
Cheers!
That's not so new though. I get 264 Mh/s per 1080Ti at 300 watts and 214 Mh/s at 180 watts. |

any ETA on cryptonite fix? still not working on the latest driver
I have tried. After I fixed the hash, the speed was reduced. So I need some more time. use 382.xx driver. I've got the same problem in the nist5 mod. the 382.xx driver give 15-20% more speed on the 1080ti. Not only does the miner not work with newer than 382.xx drivers, it also has no color coding. It looks like this: https://i.imgur.com/oOYf4SO.pngI've PM'd sp_ regarding this. He said that adding the "-q" argument would add color. It does not, all that "-q" does is freeze the miner. sp_ haven't responded to my messages regarding that since. A reply to issues with your current miner (small or not) would be expected since I paid for it. Yet, no reply had been given for weeks. It's quite easy as well for sp_. I would've done it myself but I don't have his source (for obvious reasons). Just recompile it so that the color coding works. Look up ansicon to get colors. -q is quiet mode, it removes hashrate reports, the miner mines silently basically. |

Sounds like a 51% attack can be achieved with owning the majority of nodes. Unless there are some higher tier, centralized nodes.

https://www.coinwarz.com/difficulty-charts/ethereum-difficulty-chartjump from 1,800T to 2,200T ttps://steemit.com/ethereum/@joshbreslauer/ethereum-metropolis-upgrade-in-late-september In addition, the so-called Difficulty-Bomb is actually delayed and will be part of the 2nd Hardfork of Metropolis. The Difficulty Bomb should cause an expanding difficulty in ethereum's mining. It is an intermediate step for the gradual replacement from proof-of-work to proof-of-stake. This is the so called Ethereum "Ice Age". But for the next Metropolis HF in September 2017 this should be delayed to the 2nd part and replaced by a simple Block Reward reducement from 5 to 3 ether per block. https://www.reddit.com/r/EtherMining/comments/6t56a0/important_information_from_todays_ethereum_dev/For those of you wondering what the real world impact of these bombs going off is, they are significantly increasing the amount of time it takes to mine blocks. Before one of the first bombs went off in mid May, it took on average about 14.5 secs to mine one block which contained 5 ETH. If you look at this chart https://etherscan.io/chart/blocktime you can see the exact times each subsequent bomb has gone off to the point we are at now were it is taking about 21 secs to mine 1 block of ETH. With the current implementation of Ice Age, this is what block times will look like over the coming bomb drops: August 25th - 25 seconds
September 24th - 32 seconds
October 31st - 41 seconds That will probably be more since miners will slowly turn away from mining it as well. This chart shows the difficulty bomb has only 0.05% effect: https://etherchain.org/charts/difficultyBomb |
