83  Bitcoin / Mining / Re: Max OC for a 6970 on: July 14, 2011, 04:58:25 AM
WoW!!! Somthing is really wrong with my new rig i have just build!!!
I just finished building my new PC (not just a mining rig) and i am now testing the abilities of the hardware.
My hardware:
AMD CPU phenom X4 955 3.7Ghz o.c
Crucial DDR3 1600 2x4GB
Asus crosshair IV formula Motherboard
x2 HIS Radeon HD 6970 crossfire
Air cooling

I am using the Phoenix miner with flags:
-k phatk DEVICE=0 VECTORS AGGRESSION=8 WORKSIZE=128 BFI_INT

My 6970's are NOT overclocked and still on stock clocks of 880/1375  voltage 1.175

And I am getting 365 Mhash/s (each GPU) BUT... wait for it......  My temps are 91C !!!  I can boil an egg on my cards !  Sad

I've been searching so much on other posts and i've never found people with such high temps.
Why is this happaning to me?   Huh  Is something wrong with my setup?  Or maybe the temperatures supposed to be that high?!?

- Relax and stop typing like a whiny dramatic child.
- You most likely have a shitty case with equally shitty ventilation, fix it by buying a non-shitty case or more fans.
- If the cards are sandwiched together, air will have a tough time getting in between the cards and the fan won't be as effective in cooling the card.
- If you were a real engineer you'd know that.
- Place a wedge between the cards to create an opening so air can circulate into the fan area of the cards.
- Change your username to something more akin to your level of intelligence.
- Mining stresses the GPU a lot so high temperatures are to be expected. It is always recommended to enable manual fan control and increasing speed to 60-70%. You might need higher speeds if you have a shitty case.
- If the noise from the increased fan speeds bothers you do not make a post about it, we don't give a damn. Solve that by putting on your headphones and crank the volume up on the Justin Beaver album you've been listening for the past few weeks.
- Seeing your sig motivated me to donate to planned parenthood to have less retards born into this world.
- If anyone found this post useful I encourage them to donate to Planned Parenthood as well.  Cool

Go read what a pyramid scheme is, this pool is a version of one.

Bitcoin Mining GPU Performance Comparison
http://www.hardocp.com/article/2011/07/13/bitcoin_mining_gpu_performance_comparison

Article with basic comparisons of different mining hardware, focusing specifically on GPU performance. Leaning heavily on the technical side but still nice to see it get exposure.

Bitcoin mining is a new, kind of "underground" start up, of a system of virtual currency used to buy goods and services over the Internet that is gaining in popularity. Before you turn away thinking you've landed on the wrong website, this is still HardOCP, and this does relate to video card performance. I'm not going to sit here and try to explain the whole economy of Bitcoins to you, quite frankly it is beyond the scope of this article. The reason why this is of interest to us at HardOCP, and our readers, is because of the fact that Bitcoin mining benefits from GPU acceleration in a big way.

Nice to see a major hardware enthusiast site touch upon it. Don't be harsh on them for not using all the tweaks we hardcore miners know as it is still a good introductory read for those thinking about getting their feet wet.

Yes, it is a false positive. Do not panic dear newb.

Useless and false speculation. That article is from March long before AFDS where the new architecture was announced.

91  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: I deleted Bitcoin for the moment on: July 10, 2011, 10:47:33 AM
Now my operating system isn't so stressed anymore Cheesy When Bitcoin was mining, often my system would lag, even freeze every few seconds. And this on a Core2Duo CPU. I now also have 400MB harddisk space free again now that the Bitcoin database is gone.

How can anybody take a currency serious that is dependent on electricity and where the maintenance costs more than what we get in return?

Silly newbs. Just because you failed at educating yourself about mining efficiently doesn't mean the currency is not sound.

There are experimental tools to recover deleted wallet.dat files so they can still be recovered with some luck. See here and here.

Newbies beware, Triplemining = pyramid scheme. There's a reason they are spamming the newbies board, they are desperate because no one is buying into their scam. Smiley

Those blocks are not there because they were found by another pool.
95  Bitcoin / Pools / Re: [60GH/s] Jackpot everyday! Earn more bitcoins with less effort. on: July 07, 2011, 10:35:21 PM
Pyramid scheme and you already spammed the same shit on another thread.
96  Bitcoin / Pools / Re: Team Wolf902. Earn more bitcoins with less effort. on: July 07, 2011, 06:00:35 AM
In other words it's a pyramid scheme and the ones on top need to find people with more hashing power than they have, to exploit them and make them earn for them. Anyone stupid enough to join any tripleminng pool deserves the title of serf.

P.S: If the pool was so great as you claim no one in there would have the need to spam the forums, actively recruiting people to fill out the bottom of their pyramid. Smiley

Fuck ads. If this is implemented it'll simply be one more filter in people's AdBlockPlus and NoScript Smiley

Bitcoins are not for panicky neckbeards, it is time you cut your loses and forget this ever existed. SELL SELL SELL Wink

Good job, you finally got around to reading a wiki article that most people already knew about. Are you going to tell us next that the sun rises every morning?
100  Bitcoin / Pools / Re: Does your hash-rate suck? on: July 03, 2011, 05:03:42 PM
Translation. This is a pyramid pool scheme that encourages people with low hashing power to recruit those with more to exploit them and do the work for them. In other words; if you join through the referral links of this pool, you become that person's serf.
