If Dual mining, a Dcri setting of 17 fetches you the most profitable balance of ETH and PASCAL.
And if you want to maximize ETH, do not solo mine, dual mine with a Dcri of 5, that produces the max ETH hash while generating enough PASCAL to cover electricity costs.

On my low power bios modded RX 470 4GB cards, the best setting is DCRI 17/18
I get ETH 26 and PASC 240 per card, each card drawing about 105W at the wall.

What kind of RX470 do u have ?
what kind of low power bios are u using ?

thx

I am pretty sure its not 105W at the wall while dual mining. He is most likely looking at his GPU-z wattage. I think it uses 150W or so.


It is actually 105W at the wall. GPU-Z Reads 67W. Sapphire RX 470 4GB Reference style cards, hynix memory, custom memory strap, running at 1000/825 core and 1785/825 mem. Were doing 25.5 at 90W solo ETH.

@ Phillipma - I will have my MBs by Saturday so I can test it this weekend.  It better work!!!!!  I really don't see why it wouldn't but there may be stupid BIOS settings that may need to be changed, etc.  I want these for VEGA and my PICO setups.  I got them for killa $61 Each so DEF DEF don't want to return them.

$61??? How?HuhHuh I still see them listed at $165 with 50% off so $85 minimum.

With Amd's ryzen release notes yesterday
Amd is about to make the market completely competitive
So I'm going to see where it goes before I put more into intel boards and CPU
Intel might drop prices on everything to try and compete with what amd just did

Yeah, there's some decently price B350 motherboards with 6 pci slots. Link: https://www.amazon.com/ASUS-Prime-B350-Plus-Ryzen-Motherboard/dp/B06X416NJ1/ref=sr_1_19?ie=UTF8&qid=1487876338&sr=8-19&keywords=am4+motherboard

Definitely easier to resell these than H81 btcs. Depending on the power efficiency, the 1700 cpu may be able to mine XMR pretty well too. (I guess 500h/s)


Umm that board has 4 PCIe slots and two PCI slots, so it can only do 4 GPU's.

looks nice but  I could see the giants getting many price drops.

even the s-9 went from 2100 to 1300

s-7 and s-5 were worse.

I was cut very  bad with gridseed blades and LTC.

I am afraid of asics for alts.

Hey Phil could you point me to where you are getting S9's for 1300?

Do you mean computer games like IGI? Sorry if I am at mistake actually I started to play computer games just a few months ago after getting some time from my studies as free. I have played IGI 1 and 2 only and now I do not know that 3 is available or not. I am searching for it on market and online also but I do not find anyone.

IGI? Do you have a time machine??? Is this post from 2007?Huh?

Thanks! I know most miners are command line apps, but it doesn't have to stay that way.

Yes, it's free apart from the dev fee.

You can download it from the website, which also has screenshots and instructions for installation and configuration for pool or solo mining.

We've also put together a few short ( 10 minute ) videos on our You Tube channel.

If you want any email support, please feel free to contact me via the form on the "Help & Support" page on the website.

Interesting. Following thread.

I should have a pretty interesting announcement on this front in the next few weeks ...if I were you guys don't buy anymore of these cheap switches (they suck and are not even designed properly), or even GPU risers. I will have something that will change the way we GPU mine Smiley

spill the beans

Cant spill everything yet, as im still finalizing design...but here are some teasers from my prototype system  Grin All the GPUs are 470s 4GB, would have more connected but only have one dev board built and ran out of 470s lol


Okay now the Hype level's over 9000 ...

Asrock H81 if you can get it, or the Biostar if you cant get Asrock.
633  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Claymore's Ethereum Miner With Reduced DevFee to 0.01% on: February 18, 2017, 09:30:08 AM
Huh
I do not understand the reason for so many people to remove the developer's gain?
if you are so good why do not you build a miner, fast and stable?


have you noticed that you are a newbie, who do you think will follow you on your project? I certainly do not.

best wishes for your work, so if you can call

oh theres a reason for it, any miner that has been doing it long enough has an idea of how much claymore makes from ALL of us, while I do say he is good, one of the best the issue that a lot are having problems with is the fact the its an ONgoing fee it doesn't stop, reguardless he if is working on it or not, not to mention he makes in the ballpark of around 30k a month that's a lot to be getting paid, expecially for miners of his that he hasn't not worked on in MONTHS like his XMR miner, when was the last time that was updated? how  much is the dev fee on it, I don't think that was changed either I believe its still over 2.5% yet he hasn't worked on it and is getting paid. see where im coming from? pretty sure im not the only one

on the side note, if the dev fee lasted not more than 90 days @ say its current percent. ALOT would be okay with that. limiting the amount of time and how much the dev fee is isn't wrong, what is wrong is to assume that we miners are okay with paying a continuing fee reguardless of conditions, such as no development in month(s)

You DO Realize how shallow your arguments are? His audience is the same lot, whether they point their machines to XMR or ETH or ZEC, its the same machines so the total money that he can earn is the same.  Also each algo hits its peak beyond which it cannot be improved, expecting regular updates to dated algos is kinda stupid. And his fee model is a continuous one because YOU CAN NOT AFFORD his one time fee miners that large private farm operators can.
For whiners like you his miners DO have a no fee option to deny him that PRECIOUS 1% that he is taking FOR DOING NOTHING. So go ahead and use those, or just stop using Claymore altogether, wolf's miners is pretty good, go use that and quit indulging in what is a breach of contract and Piracy.
634  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: [SHOP] SimpleRigResetter - Auto resets HANGED rigs - available now !!! on: February 15, 2017, 07:17:36 PM
Ok i had unexpected emergency. Becasue of that i had 1 day delay.
Anyway all orders placed up to 14.02.2017 are sent and you should receive email with all details.
If anyone didnt received email then please PM me.

Now orders will be going out smoothly Smiley


Development of Extension Boards is moving forward.
We decived to upgrade this even more.
All 24 slots on Extension Board will have RJ9 (telephonic) conectors.
The cables will be cheaper and lighter. Device cost will be bigger but summary overall experience will be better.
There will be much easier for you guys to for example order ExtensionBoards WITHOUT cables and do them yourselves Smiley
That way some far far away countried will have cheaper shipping costs.
Anyway still its too soon to tell all details, but once i will know them i will share with you Smiley

Now we can focus on SRR software/firwmare - if you guys are missing something, just tell me.
I am open for suggestions and updates.

Hear Hear. Cant wait Smiley

Great way to end the night...............Uncle visited again.
Hey Yun, are you nhando? Why did you stop using that handle?
Yes, many of you will know my old nick as nhando and may be very familiar with me if you've mined on Kano.is pool.  My account was hacked and admin never did anything to fixed it even with Phillipma verifying my old transactions etc so I have to take over my friend's account which is this yun9999 due to laziness.  So yeah, I've been thru the many ups and down of Crypto not just some excited new guy who just started.  =)

Yeah I remember seeing the  nhando handle a lot back when RX 480's hit. If you've been around in the forums you kinda spot the regulars and ol timers who've been there done that Smiley
Actually was kinda surprised how someone with such an elaborate setup flew under the radar, I had never heard of yun9999 untill this thread and was blown away by this newcomer Cheesy
Finskey's reply addressing you as nhando made me think yeah that makes a lot of sense, he has to be an ol timer Cheesy
Cheers, and best of luck for the upcoming storm.

v12.0:

- improved speed, about 405H/s on stock 390X, 450H/s on stock Nano, 290H/s on stock 280X, 295H/s on stock RX480.


NOTES:
1. Reduce intensity ("-i" option) if miner is unstable.
2. It seems there is no way to get full speed on latest drivers for Fiji cards, at least in Windows. So don't use latest drivers for Fury, use 15.12 or 16.3.2.


Muchos Gracias Compadre, getting 270H/s on underclocked RX 470 4GB's so I LOVE this version Smiley
639  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Data Center Mining Garage and Man Mining Cave on: February 12, 2017, 06:03:06 PM

So the parts required to make this work are:

24Pin Pico PSU with SATA connector to power SSD
6pin PCIe to EPS patch cable for motherboard
PCIe 6pin-powered risers (with on-board voltage converters for 3.3/5V)
a bunch of PCIe 6pin and 6+2pin splitter cables



Okay see now THIS IS WHAT I NEED Cheesy you have a convert here Finksy, I see the Server Way now Cheesy
When would you have these bundles ready? I believe I will be super interested in a jumbo bundle that has 2 4K PSU's each capable of running 5 rigs, so something like
The "Big Momma" 8KW Package - $???

(Add a 50A circuit and go big, with PDU included for clean, simple & safe install)
 - 4x DPS-2000 PSU's
 - 2x Standard 4K Breakout Boards
- 10x 24Pin Pico PSU with SATA connector to power SSD
 - 10x 6pin PCIe to EPS patch cable for motherboard

 - 2x Steel sideplates and hardware for mounting fans
 - 1x 50A 4-port PDU with 15A breakers for each circuit (40A continuous)
- 60x 36" PCIe 1X2(split) 6 pin PCIe cables
 - 4x C19 power cables of choice (see below for stock)
 - 4x 120mm hydraulic bearing 180CFM fans

Any chance of us seeing something like that in the near future? I would be super interested in getting a few of those.
640  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Data Center Mining Garage and Man Mining Cave on: February 11, 2017, 07:27:13 PM
How do you hook up the 4kw psus? Do you use one per few rigs with 7 cards?

You connect 1 baby PSU such as a cheap EVGA 650 watt PSU to power the MB and power risers, SSD for each rig.  It's best not to go too cheap on the baby psu as they wont last too long or may not be able to handle the summer heat under max load during the hot summer.  Remember cheap PSU ratings may not be accurate and they tend to post Peak Power vs RMS (continuous use) which is what you want for 24/7 operation.   Finksy is coming up with Pico PSU options as well so it will get more interesting.  I will review it when he send me some.

Wow, thanks for the detailed response!

So, to combine both of your favorites, what about if I used EVGA 650 P2 for the baby ATX and then the 4kw PSUs for 4 rigs with 7 cards each?

Also, I have never used more than 1 PSU before, so is there a special way to turn them on? I am assuming turn on the 4kw before you power on the computer with the baby ATX?

You would need the Baby PSU to power the CPU, SSD and the GPU PCIe Risers, while the bulk of GPU power is delivered through the IBM 4K. Thats two different PSU's supplying to one component which can cause a lot of power complications( powering both PSU's together always, failing which can cause power back channeled into the baby psu and motherboard frying etc) and that right there is why I've never even gone for Dual PSU setups, its risky territory. It was mandatory in the years gone by when cards like the 7950 drew 300W per card, but with the RX 480's drawing 150W peak we do not need to go dual PSU / Server PSU setups anymore.

Even if you DO decide to go for a Baby PSU + 4K Server PSU setup, lets evaluate a 5 Rig lot using this setup :
The Baby PSU has to power 6 GPU Risers must have 6 Molex connectors and sufficient power for the max 75W per card (which is the known PCIe Draw for the RX 470/480 series cards) so the EVGA 650W suggestion is the MINIMUM that you should consider. That's $70 per PSU. And an additional $255 + $50 shipping for the IBM 4K PSU bundle that Finksy sells and we are at a total of  $650.
You can get 5 X Corsair RM1000X PSU's at $150 each for each of the rigs, totalling to $750 and I have been running 7 X RX 470 rigs on them stably for over 5 months now. The price difference is hardly worth the additional risk.

Dont get me wrong, the 4K Server PSU setup is absolutely amazing for Antminers or ASIC's and 8 GPU Rigs or higher like the Pandaminer, but regular 5,6,7 GPU rigs are almost always better off with single dedicated PSU's especially with the new RX series pulling so much wattage out of the PCIe slots.

Btw @yun9999 this thread is downright AMAZING, the wealth of information that you have shared with everyone through this thread is commendable, many thanks for structuring it so well. The clean precise operation that you run has inspired me ( and im sure several others here ) to get our act together and move up from ghetto wood/pipe/aluminium rigs, the bar is now set waay too high for those to be passable anymore Smiley
