I do have that tool, how else can I keep from burning the house down  but the reading is not exact.. jumps around and what you write down is.. well an educated guess. If you have a model w/ true RMS it shoudn't be jumping around. Cheaper units measure mean current and then calculate "guestimate" RMS. This is fine is power is perfectly a sine wave but some loads disrupt the sine wave. Loads like computer power supplies. If you are sure your model is True RMS you also need to make sure that the conductor is in the center of the clamp and doesn't move. If you move the conductor around you will change the induced current and thus the reading. A kill-a-watt works the same way so done right readings shouldn't be any less accurate than a Kill-a-watt. I have picked up one of these for $7.99, will it suffice?  |

For decades, experts have agreed that solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs) hold the greatest potential of any fuel cell technology. With low cost ceramic materials, and extremely high electrical efficiencies, SOFCs can deliver attractive economics without relying on CHP. But until now, there were significant technical challenges inhibiting the commercialization of this promising new technology. SOFCs operate at extremely high temperature (typically above 800°C). This high temperature gives them extremely high electrical efficiencies, and fuel flexibility, both of which contribute to better economics, but it also creates engineering challenges.
Bloom has solved these engineering challenges. With breakthroughs in materials science, and revolutionary new design, Bloom's SOFC technology is a cost effective, all-electric solution.
Over a century in the making, fuel cells are finally clean, reliable, and most importantly, affordable.
Each Bloom Energy fuel cell is capable of producing about 25W... enough to power a light bulb. For more power, the cells are sandwiched, along with metal interconnect plates into a fuel cell "stack". A few stacks, together about the size of a loaf of bread, is enough to power an average home. Current production is limited to commercial 210Kw and 105Kw units. http://www.bloomenergy.com/http://www.cbsnews.com/video/watch/?id=6816773nor http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PEk4o10WNG0 |

GUIMiner hasn't been updated in 6 months or more.
Maybe try going back to a July version of GUIMiner?
I'm trying to helpful as I can. I gave up on Windows 3 years ago but it be callin me, man.

I'm new to mining so am looking for a pool. I've read some posts, not about the pool, where your response has enlightened me, PSU's for one. Between you and Death and Taxes I have changed my purchase decisions on PSU's.
Regardless of how lame some of my questions may sound to some people, I am learning, even if just to ask better questions.
Basically I'd like to eliminate anyone from disturbing the stream, anyone that might affect my connection to a pool. I'm going to put a firewall on a dedicated internet connection for the miners, so that my surfing, good or bad habits, doesn't interfere with the mining. I don't trust any thing after the plug in my wall and I only need to trust the destination, the pool I connect to, so I am considering VPN, but that still leaves exit node to pool.
If peeking isn't a threat to the mining data, what could happen to that data between my miners and the pool that I should be concerned about? If someone wanted to be malicious what could they do?

I would rather see more complete stats, some have done more than the OP requirements, which is appreciated.

How many hashes for each card?
What miner software are you running?
I wonder if there is a thread to post your card stats in?

All traffic is encrypted (with the exception of block traffic, since it's meaningless in terms of security) From where to where, my miners to your pool? http://<username>:<password>@us2.eclipsemc.com:8337#US2_EclipseMC http:// It isn't SSL...which is broken by design anyway. http://cryptome.org/0005/ssl-broken.htmDo we OpenVPN to your pool? 4096bit?  Is my tunnel vision justified? |

Hi mmsandi,
Did you unpack poclbm_py2exe_20120205.7z with 7zip?
If it isn't unpacked first it won't function.

Are they parts installers?

Are you using any PCIe extender cables?

This card ... $210 for 440MH/s = $2.1MH/$
A 7970 ... $550 for 675MH/s = $1.2MH/$
Now on a MH/J perspective the 7970 wins for sure. Factoring in salvage value the 7970 probably does well too.
Alternatively: 5870 - $160/440MH/s = $.363 per 1MH/s  5870 - $210/440MH/s = $.477 per 1MH/s  7970 - $550/675MH/s = $.814 per 1MH/s  The 7970 costs $.337 more per mega hash upfront compared to the $210 5870. The 7970 salvage value may have to compete with the FPGA's. |

Can the motherboard bus and southbridge be causing or contributing to stability issues like in the OP?
What testing should you be doing after purchasing a used card through the internet middler?
If the visual inspection of it appears good and clean, what next?

Those 5970s are worth around 60-70 btc each + shipping. Anyone who offers you less is trying to rip you off. Not sure about the coolers.
There is no reason for you to butt in and poison other peoples deals if you have no intention of buying these cards. It's wrong and very uncool. Prices are relative to peoples expectation of value within their current circumstance and there is no reason for you to dictate other peoples value on any given product. I bought my new 5970 for 52 BTC (@$5.76/1BTC) with free shipping.  |
