Mining is slow now, I found out about it coin to late...

As in 12h til difficulty change thread



hey look at that Difficulty=82

Network Hashrate: 5587.19 MH/s WOOOOOW!

Yesterday it was 2500!!!

That hashrate is incorrect and there was no jump.  The network hashrate is calculated based on the average time blocks are found for a particular difficulty.  Network was lucky and just found more blocks than it "should've" right after the difficulty change.  It will taper out.

I didn't know that...
63  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / FTC - Feathercoin - NETWORK HASHRATE: 4GH/s !!! on: May 01, 2013, 11:10:24 AM
Feathercoin in few days reached 4GH/s network hashrate, for comparison litecoin has 14GH/s, so

FTC hash / LTC hash = (4GH/s) / (14GH/s) = ~ 0,28

FTCs hashrate is growing faster than any other cryptocurrencys ever.
64  Bitcoin / Mining software (miners) / Auto restart CGMiner under linux on: May 01, 2013, 08:17:43 AM
Hi! I'm wondering if there is a way of automatically restarting cgminer after one of GPUs failure under linux, something like cgwatcher for windows would be great. Maybe some kind of script would do the job? I don't know linux scripting at all Sad Does BAMT has some kind of tool for restarting cgminer if it fails?

More good info, thank-you.

$125 at NewEgg, so not bad there.

I've googled a little bit for those powered riser cables. I've found some, but pretty obscure vendors. Do you guys know of a good source for those?

Thanks

You can buy regular risers without power cable and mod them with molex plug (if you need powered risers at all) there was a tutorial on the forum somewhere, it's really easy.

MSI FXA-GD65 - 6GPU (without any mods) and it's for like $100, also it has additional power plug for PCI-E so you don't need powered risers.
67  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Motherboard of choice for 6 or more GPU's on: April 28, 2013, 08:02:32 PM
Here's a list of motherboards from other threads that are known to work with 4 or more GPU's

known to work
-------------
5 GPU - ASRock 970 EXTREME4 ($145)
4 gpu - Asrock 970 Extreme3 ($99)
4 gpu - Gigabyte GA-970A-D3 ($104)
7 gpu - MSI Big Bang-XPower II ($369)

power supply limitations and airflow/overheating are the biggest concerns in 5+ card systems.

add2psu sells a gadget to link two or more power supplies together. If space isnt an issue, two smaller power supplies may be cheaper than one big one

Add MSI FXA-GD65 - 6GPU (without any mods) and it's for like $100
68  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Litecoin: 1x to 16x PCI-E extenders, CPU question on: April 28, 2013, 02:14:29 AM
Also do you think it's a better idea to get a CPU/mobo with integrated graphics, or is it okay to use one of the mining GPUs for video? (this would be a dedicated mining rig... it would just be sitting there with a terminal running cgminer)

For my latest build I picked up an AMD APU to power the monitor instead of off the gpu or integrated graphics. $43 for the APU, just needs to be set as default display in BIOS. The only problem with this is you are more limited with the mobos available, most only have 2 pci x16 because of the APU slot, but mine also has 3 PCI x1 slots.

Best mobo for APU is ASRock A55DEL 5 x PCI-E for under $70


And btw You don't have to use powered risers even for 6 GPUs if your mobo has power port next to PCI-E (6PIN usually. I have MSI 990FXA-GD65 with 6 GPUs, no problems at all.

Next difficulty estimate calculation is broken it shows 36, but it's not true, next difficulty should be about 27.

My bad. I was accidentally using 210 seconds instead of 160 (2.5 min)
Fixed now!

Thanks  Smiley

Could you reapair your calculator? It shows:

Quote
Current Difficulty   27.497

Quote
Expected Time per Block   0 day(s), 0 hour(s), 2 min, 46 sec

Above is propably right, so if time for solving a block is 2min 46sec, (it's more than 2min 30sec, which is target block solving time) that means difficulty is going DOWN, not up like it is shown in your calculator:

Quote
Next Difficulty   34.665613350126

Next difficulty = (2min 30sec)/(2min 46sec)*27.497
Next difficulty = 24.846

But a lot of people will notice addresses on the bottom of the page, and will search bitcoin and litecoin i search engines, it will make these coins more popular, especially litecoin which didn't have any major media attention.

Sounds like a Bitcoin farm being converted to Litecoin or feathecoin or w/e... I know personally if I switched over everything i "could" to litecoin mining it would give me 12+kH/s which isnt a lot compared to that but I don't have a lot either

2 x 7950 gives you around 1MH/s so he should have 272 x 7950 !

6 more entries (all very similar, granted)





I like 4th one best  Smiley
79  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: FeatherCoin - New Litecoin based coin on: April 24, 2013, 10:16:58 AM
Last ones from me from the batch I did. I'm no pro-designer, but I have a go at least.





I think, that second one was better, but in my opinion "F" letter should be looking more "light" like feather or it should be F with smaller feather somewhere.
80  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: FeatherCoin - New Litecoin based coin on: April 24, 2013, 04:32:37 AM
I think Feathercoin should start looking at a legit icon for the coin. The one it has now is nice, but it's stolen.

Unless some jeweler who designed it in 2011 is behind it. oO

Before it really gets to be known for it... that is.


Beside that icon doesn't look good at all...
