I don't know, but if you email them they should be able to tell you who to contact or look it up on their website.

The replacement black fans are available from Sapphire. Email Sapphire at tech@althonmicro.com. The LED fans are for retail stores.

Your miners are the best out there. Keep up the good work.

More options is always a good thing, but everyone can't always win and you can't make everybody happy.

You can't mix Nvidia and AMD cards on ethOS. You could try HiveOS, which apparently supports mixing AMD and Nvidia cards on Linux.

This belongs in the pools section, not here.

Going by WTM, currently the most profitable Neoscrypt coin is 15% more profitable than ETH only mining on a weekly average basis. Once you factor in dual mining and the increased difficulty that will come shortly from Vega's, that will certainly make it less profitable, at least for RX 580's.

Doesn't seem as profitable as Ethash or Equihash for RX 580's. Should be a good option for Vega's.

The same parameters work for both the .bat or config files, so as long as the parameters are set correctly, it should make no difference which one you used. If you look at the log file, the first line is the parameters passed to the miner. You can also use different config files in the same way you use different .bat files. You just need to put the name of the config file to use when you start the miner.

I doubt it makes any difference, it's just a matter of convinience. The config file is parsed and passes the parameters to the miner at runtime anyway. If you change pools or use different settings often, a .bat file for each pool is more convininet than having to adjust the config file.

Now that ASIC's are out for DCR, the share difficulty on the pools has gone up to compensate for the huge increase in network difficulty. With 310 MH/s, after power, you would lose money mining DCR. You are much better off dual mining XVG or SMART which are still profitable to dual mine.

Any masternode that is worth having or isn't an outright scam will require several thousands or even hundreds of thousands of USD to hold. If you are too stupid to figure it out, running a successful business requires establishing credibility. Servers and domains used by pools also cost money and time to set up and run, which by investing in that infrastructure beforehand, helps pools establish credibility. Pools aren't saying 'send me your hash rate and I'll set up a pool to pay you with'. Anyone with a legitimate business plan would invest the time and resources to help establish that credibility. Creating a post on a forum with a link to a Discord and Telegram channel that can be set up anonymously by anyone for ZERO cost in 5 minutes does nothing for except to show it's a scam.

For one the only thing I'm sending a pool is my hash rate, which I control and can set my own auto payout limit. Nobody is leaving hundreds or thousands of USD worth of Crypto locked up on a new pool or on an exchange and if you do, you're an idiot. Trusting some idiot on the internet to manage your masternode for you is just the next level stupid.

Since you don't want Windows updating your drivers, I would disable drivers updates in Windows Update.

gpedit ==> Computer Configuration ==> Administrative Templates ==> Windows Components ==> Windows Update and set 'Do not include drivers with Windows Update' to enabled.

All the masternodes that I'm aware of require sending and locking up the masternode amount under a single transaction and wallet address. So basically this clown expects everyone to send him their coins for you to trust him to host the masternode, collect the payments and then send you your percentage. That's like someone saying they are a bank and you can trust them to hold your money for you and pay you interest. Sounds totally legit. LOL

And delegating that to some annoynymous noob that can just run off with the funds is a good way to lose the coins you are dumb enough to send. 99.99999% of the masternode coins started in the last months are just scams.

If you don't control the keys, you don't own shit.

The current lack of availibility is in large part due to Nvidia's manufacturing switching to the new series. Once the new series is launched, all that inventory will come out at that same time and availibility will definitely improve compared to where it's at now. Of course the aftermarket partner cards will take a couple months after Nvidia launches their refrence cards.

If you are planning to sell the cards, then I would do it before the new cards are out, since they are selling at a premium due to the lack of availability.
