If you need more beta testers, you can count on me too.

When it's ready to go live I'll create a proper domain name and open it up for people to use and BETA test.
Right now I'm randomly picking people as I'm adding a lot of BTC / alt-coin specific things and double and triple checking things to make sure everything is catered for and those with big farms / amounts of rigs can typically provide better testing & suggestions.

SGMiner-GM, AMDGPU-PRO, Sapphire Nitro+ 470 4GB (Hynix), custom memory timings.

You also might want to mention the chance of him achieving those figures himself is close to zero Tongue

It seems you should learn a bit.
The License file is a part of miner package. Besides copyrights, it also describes what you may do and what you may not. Do you state that you may ignore "License.txt"? If so, that's what I mean when I say that some devs don't respect licenses.

You're actually right, but many countries have laws that protect reverse engineering (I believe a lot of Europe does) regardless of licenses.

Some do, but that typically is only if you actually purchase something. Something that is offered for free will not cover that as the license explicitly states what is allowed if you want to use it (in whatever form).

How much ram does your GPU have?

Probably 2GB, that is the problem.

Yup, that is why i'm asking Wink

That's very good analysis - and good visuals too for easy reference -- are the codes available to us? or is this on subscription basis?

I'll send you a message off list shortly.

 Either way, XMR is still the most profitable over the last 24h.


 Not for everyone. I haven't seen it come up as "most profitable" for anything I run *except* my GTX 750 Ti cards yet (those are in XP gaming machines that CAN'T run anything else AFAIK), though it's been getting semi-close on my RX 470s (though whattomine hashrate figures need to be taken with LARGE quantities of salt at times).

 On the other hand, the pool I've been running the 750 Ti cards on seems to be not accepting a TON of hashrate - any recommendations for a RELIABLE pool, preferably with a low "payout to exchange" minimum?

Sorry, I should of been more specific. For RX470 and RX480, XMR is more profitable. (You have to hand adjust all the values as the default figures on the site is WAY off).
For XMR, I've been using dwarfpool for the last 2 years and been extremely happy. No stolen shares, consistent payouts, geographically located and the payout to exchange is 0 (they pay for it themselves).
67  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: My new ZEC + XMR+ ETH thread builds info links thoughts and photos. on: December 26, 2016, 03:54:17 AM
thats a very nice graphs you have there -- is that generated from a website?

I landed up coding it as I wanted to see profitability side by side with various coins over time.

With no solid wallets for XMR and ZEC, I have to use Poloniex address and I see that over time, the commission charge to them and also the baby-sitting efforts to sell the coins at high -- are taking too much money and time from me.

XMR fork happening in a few days which is the final hurdle before the XMR wallet (which will cause the price to spike, big time). Either way, XMR is still the most profitable over the last 24h.
Also the pools pay the commission charges so you're actually saving yourself some profit by not having to send from wallet -> exchange and back again.

I reckon, factoring all of these consolidating to NH and get paid in BTC upfront works out to be same-same. The farm on 100% NH (selling hash for BTC instead of mining them directly for native coins) generates around USD$270-320 220-270 per day @ 33 rigs.

If I have indeed lost up to 3% of these revenue for using NH, I think its a small price to pay because, I get to do away with selling at exchanges and get BTC upfront, pass the "selling" risk to NH, avoid Shapeshift and risk paying more commission and catch the BTC wave directly. I use NH only for ZEC and XMR. ETH is direct into my Coinbase wallet.

If you are collecting coins, then NH is not a good solution.

The thing you have to realize is that using NH isn't just a 3% loss in revenue, that's just their fee.
You're losing about 13-15% of your PROFIT (on average!) as NH as it's considerably more profitable to mine the coins directly to the exchange (on Poloniex) and sell for BTC.
I'm busy automating the entire process so that there's never a need to babysit it. The second any non-BTC coin lands on the exchange, code will sell immediately.
There's around 70 people using the code / site currently so I'm sure that (configurable) functionality will come in handy.

any solution for this  Huh



Increase virtual memory
I did it but still nothing

How much ram does your GPU have?
69  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: My new ZEC + XMR+ ETH thread builds info links thoughts and photos. on: December 25, 2016, 07:00:01 PM
Did the "most profitable coin" just switched to ETH???  Angry

One of my test machine, I installed Nicehash Windows miner.

It has quite an aggressive "auto-switching" algorithm for renting/selling hash.

And I usually take this signal from Nicehash and compare with whattomine.com and coinwarz.com to determine if I need to switch my rigs to mine the best coin.

I would avoid using nicehash if i were you. Not only do you have to factor in a 3% fee (not included on those sites), but their payment policy has changed and payouts take quite a bit longer.
If you're using RX cards, you probably want to (at this point) stick to XMR. (i factor in the 3% fee when checking profitability)

Is there a version upgrade in the near future?

Yup, he mentioned in a different thread that he is working on an update for it.

3. Negotiating 20 x Sapphire 470s from a local supplier ... hopefully can close by today.

Aren't you able to get able to get 480's at the same price at the 470's?

With the new AMD GPU's getting released in 2 weeks, isn't it worth waiting to see what price it comes in at?
(even if too expensive, it should drop the price of the already existing 470/480's)

8 port dvi/USB/kvm switch

All seriousness I did get an 8 port  switch. Cost me good money but I have an idea for using it beyond mining.
And I am going to have six four card biostar Msi rigs.

Please can you post a link to it, you've gotten me curious! Tongue
73  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Claymore's CryptoNote GPU Miner v9.6 on: December 24, 2016, 07:05:59 PM
Generally, 470's will get about 570-580 un-modded and around 690 after that strap-mod.
I have 1 rig in each case, and that is almost exactly what my 470's are getting under both scenarios. Granted, 480's should probably do a bit better than that but not my much.

Are you sure about that?

RX480's : GPU0 788 h/s, GPU1 783 h/s, GPU2 791 h/s, GPU3 786 h/s, GPU4 789 h/s

That's around 100 h/s more than your 470's.
If you can confirm what bios gpu,memory straps are you using, it would be great. and also are yours 4gb or 8?

8gb.. 1650 to 2000 mem strap with gpu at 1400 mhz

I can get the 1200W Platinum psu's for about $150+/-20 on Amazon.

That can be a great deal!

The cheapest 1200W platinum I've seen was ~$185, but usually they are ~$200

Rosewill Quark Series 1200 Watt Full Modular 80 Plus Platinum Certified

Here is the link:  https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00VS8728G/ref=ox_sc_sfl_title_3?ie=UTF8&psc=1&smid=ATVPDKIKX0DER

They have been really reliable for me.

While we're talking about PSU's: does anyone have a way to pull data from their PSU's?
I know Corsair Link is one PSU that can do that .. Do any others? I'm trying to find a way to monitor lots of power going to individual rigs on a large scale.

Sorry to hear this -- monopoly is bad - esp for basic necessities like electricity

You should explore other options like off grid solar or ISP outsourcing.

I have solar but that limits my night time usage only Wink

Heck my mining days might be coming to a close
Power company is inceasing rate by 7% starting July 1

Every year, our electricity goes up by 9%.

Wow ! In which crazy country are you living ? You know here, the if the price goes higher by 2% that's a very big increase, and that's not yearly of course ! Well if you start at 0,01$/KWh that might be worth but I doubt that it is the case !

wow..... the power company is printing money!
Curious which country has this kind of rates.
Would it follow a certain market energy rate?

I'm living in Cape Town, South Africa.. There is only 1 energy provider (Eskom) and they have a monopoly and protected by (corrupt) government officials thereby preventing any external energy providers from entering the market

But what about the luck . Isnt it such thing: all pools start to find next block , the one with more hashpower do it faster then others and gets all reward. Others with less hashpower have to be lucky to find it first. Am I wrong ?

https://www.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/comments/282tsb/mining_in_a_small_pool_is_statistically_as/

"if they're honest then yes, you really do earn slightly more at larger pools, and decreased cognitive costs are a real issue"
"p2pool has huge costs to run in practice for real miners - just setting it up sucks up time for instance, and it's design means that those with lower latency than others get an unfair advantage"
"so basically the thing is a pool will never orphan themselves, which means given a x% orphan rate, the pool with 50% hashing power has x/2% higher revenue"

No ETA, sorry. I will do it as soon as I can, but firstly I need to update dual miner. Also don't forget about holidays Smiley

Thank you. We'll wait patiently Wink
