Bought some 6 pin extenders and just used the unused 6 pin off each of my gpu cables to fill the motherboard 6 pin slots and everything worked like a champ. 8 gigabyte 1070 ti’s running with no issues. It did bump the power usage up a bit compared to the same setup on my octo board but not enough to be an issue.
Huh? The B250 D8P doesn't have 6-pin slots on the mobo, at least version 1 doesn't.... Oh wait, you're talking about the Octominer board? D8P V2 has 6 pin PCIE power replacing sata/molex, as well as a repositioned ATX power port..... from what I recall. |

Loving this XMR profitability. Hope it lasts for a couple weeks.
I think that unfortunately hashrate will redistribute much faster than that. Supply is very elastic. im literally getting almost 4x+ what I was a few days ago.... So, until people stop turning more machines onto XMR, it will lower a bit... but, even still... I can almost generate 1 XMR a month now; compared to being able to generate almost .01-.05/mo. Loving this XMR profitability. Hope it lasts for a couple weeks.
I think that unfortunately hashrate will redistribute much faster than that. Supply is very elastic. Is anyone mining xmr with nvidia? I'm fully nvidia, on rvn at the moment, and wondering if it's worth switching… see my post a few above this one; it has a link for phil to an XMR binary that has no devfee. For the next few weeks, Ill probably be only mining 100% XMR now, and not RVN + zpool coins as I have been. |

thnx!!
I couldn't get it to run two threads on the vega64
could you please post the code for 6 gpus if you know
thnx again for the effort
Not sure what you mean. If you have multiple GPU, you will see a config file like this for nvidia: "gpu_threads_conf" :
[
// gpu: GeForce GTX 1070 architecture: 61
// memory: 6789/8192 MiB
// smx: 15
{ "index" : 0,
"threads" : 28, "blocks" : 45,
"bfactor" : 8, "bsleep" : 100,
"affine_to_cpu" : false, "sync_mode" : 3,
},
// gpu: GeForce GTX 980 architecture: 52
// memory: 3370/4096 MiB
// smx: 16
{ "index" : 1,
"threads" : 12, "blocks" : 48,
"bfactor" : 6, "bsleep" : 25,
"affine_to_cpu" : false, "sync_mode" : 3,
},
], You can see each GPU listed with it's configs. There are notes that I did not cut and paste about modifying 'bfactor' and 'bsleep' to 8 and 100 respectively. This has helped me in my issues in the past. the AMD file should contain a similar description of its settings. I am thinking this is probably your issue? You should see all system GPU's listed in the AMD.txt file. I don't have any vegas on hand to test with or anything, so I can't get a config from a vega to show a prime example as the app creates the configs itself... so give it a shot; assuming I understood your initial question properly  Also; if you add more GPU's to the system, or remove some, or change the CPU, delete the appropriate file (amd.txt, cpu.txt or nvidia.txt) and re-run xmr-stak.exe. it will re-assess the system and rebuild the configs for the current hardware set. |

revolution always starts with few. the others will have no choice but to follow. some self proclaimed crypto gurus, (some of them are even clueless, why are they rich and how fast it happens) remember they still speak at conferences etc., from now on i will whistle when they speak. and my first question will be be why dont you counter asic when you know is not decentralized?
The key is; if the asic could be made cheap and available, then that is a potential valid counter to centralization by asics. Food for thought. |

XMR is really climbing the profitability ranks. Feels like the end of last year's profitability. I pointed all of my machines at it for now. Wanna reach that min 1XMR payout now. XMR is the first blockchain aside from BTC that I have synced fully now at home. Thinking of setting up a machine at my VPN location with pool code.... almost worth it at this point. I have been pretty impressed with the stability and hashrate of my recompiled xmr-stak for W10.... so much better overall hashrates without the miner disconnecting to do devfee mining.... and its a one stop app shop; will run any GPU I have throw at it so far (GTX4xx-GTX10xx) as well as the AMD. Someone should test my build with the older RX and HD cards... see if they are supported like the nvidia side link it I will run an rx 460 and a rx 560 I think I have a really old hd6790 If you need help editing the configs to disable CPU and whatnot, send me a PM or email me directly at my username at gmail, I should be at my PC for a while longer; but there are notes in the top post of that thread, as well as examples of editing the configs in a reply below it. |

There are too many trader asking if yobit is scam but still yobit is standing for how many years already its funny lol!
Well, people who use Yobit are playing with fire and it just seems fantastic. Until one day Yobit won't answer a problem in a given situation (because that's how they operate), and that's when people playing with fire will get burned. It's not a question of "IF", it's a question of "when" - problems happen all the time. Agreed... they do operate in a manner that is unbefitting an exchange when it comes to "customer service".
I myself have never purchased any coins there that I have planned to move off the exchange. All of my alts on there are always going to stay there; that was my first mental decision when I started to invest the sig payouts into the market... I guess that's why I don't see it as such a big problem towards my intents.
They really need to stop listing these no-name coins... just because they are paid to list them. I am very surprised they haven't added many of the majorly traded tokens found on other exchanges.
When Yobit accepts to list a new coin, they should understand that listing a coin is a business commitment; and if they don't want to support it anymore they should notify and compensate all parties involved. double edged sword as the dev can easily Eff em like most do. they always ghost. I always 100% consider any tokens on that exchange except the major mediums to stay on the exchange. I only expect to be able to withdraw thing like BTC, BCH, LTC, ETH, ETC, etc.... Hasn't failed me. But then again; im not a person that maintains a million wallets and blockchains because my internet bandwidth is rather limited. |

This is what I assembled it to be: https://imgur.com/ZyDO73LI left one fan rail out; slightly different layout than your original intent I believe. I only had your websites assembly docs when I put it together cause BCT had the SSL error and I couldn't see my PM's. You did send me a massive amount of hardware.... might wanna check you nut/bolt counts on the next one.... lol I still have several M3-30+ screws etc. Not complaining though Might wanna make assembly instructions for this version. |

I have to say I am really liking this Onda B250, it runs great no matter what I throw at it. Simple Mining OS, Win10, Debian. They all just work. I currently have 7 480X 8gb cards in it. I had 8 but one died, it will be back from RMA in a few days. It worked great when all 8 were in there. Starting to think I should buy one or two more of these instead of wasting time messing around with other boards.
another facet: If you accidentally bump the BIOS reset when plugging in a USB (keyboard/mouse in my instance) all you need to do is F1 into BIOS, and set default graphics to IGFX.... simple. But yeah, im loving this board. It's the perfect format IMHO. |

look up nvsmi. its in the nvidia folder; it gets installed with the driver. you can use it to manually set fan speeds via command line, so just have it execute before your ccminer command.
More on the nvsmi utility in the batch link in my sig. may be a link or two deep, but its the link about forcing P0 state. Probably the original batch thread linked in the one in my sig....

Looks like the eagle has landed for the Monero-v7 profitability...
100khs is giving 0.0266 BTC at Nicehash Crypotonite V7 marketplace.
It's that 80% missing hashrate no longer dumping earnings me thinks.... Or, letting the price rise while they turn on machines slowly in secret..... |

Almost 100 pages again... Got my frame from @Spotswood I got mine on a custom order, so it was similar, but different than the directions given.... regardless, I figured it out and got her all nice and together. Need to extend one of my SATA power cables from the PSU about an inch or two, annoying, but expected. On the table, the PSU was in a different position. It looks like there's enough room to stack another PSU right on top of the first one when the time comes. Spotswood is kinda ingenious on how some of these connect together. My mother when watching m assemble at her house, was throw n back by the holes drilled in the framework for the hidden/flush screwheads. Anyways; once I got it home and the board test-fit, I re-arranged the parts I put on wrong and populated it. Back up and running. https://imgur.com/a/YmKSA |

Thanks for the toughts Jared, if nobody else has same problem, either they never check how much their rigs should make or I'm the only one. Now my crappy mixed pile of 6 different brands 1060s (hynix included) beats all brand name parts rig with 7 cards  Out of desperation i updated the bios yesterday with the official beta bios 006 from Gigabyte. Before that it was original. Now i get the same hashrate as before by adding 200Mhz instead of 700 (probably a MSI AB bug). However GPU 4 still produces incorrect calculations. The last thing i can try with this card is use it for equihash/other script or just.. play.. games? Anyway, if anyone has ever had such issue and solved it, please share your experience. play some games... see if you get artifacts..... |

has the BIOS been modified at all? if so, put the original one back on it to test again.
If not, or yes... either way;
it sounds like it could be an issue in the bios with a bad flash or a flash that is too much for your degraded hardware; or the GPU/ram may have suffered some damage either due to simple failure over time, or due to overclocks/temps...
Not saying what it is,
but the symptoms are that of a card with a bad bios or its been overclocked too much too long and its circuits degraded in the die; circuits in either RAM or the GPU die.... especially if all at stock settings, fresh drivers, and different miner apps/algos produce the same results.
I have come across a few open box GPU that were overstressed and threw nothing but errors and games were unreliable or glitchy.... and have also ran across second hand GPU in CL purchases that behaved as you mentioned..... tis why I bring a test system when I buy GPU on craigslist. I always make sure I can properly test it at stock settings before I buy.

You mean incorrect share? If it yes, mostly caused by OC, and or GPU memory error. Try to check your GPU memory error using HWINFO. Normally under-clock will solve this, but as you said it's isn't. so, memory error may most possible.
HWinfo shos only AMD memory errors. It cannot read Nvidia mem errors. But even if there are memory errors, why even at stock clock? *tried also flashing the VBios - no change I'm shy, Sorry didn't see you have 1060. Try to Reduce memory frequency, under a stock, if it solves you prob, improve it back by stepping. does this card produce errors in a separate machine running by itself? |

I really don't get why there are so much bad reviews on Yobit ... I reviewed this exchange some time ago ( source FR) and it was pretty good. Simple to use, good security, and many coins to play with ! I didn't had trouble so i didn't get with tech support. For the old coins support it looks that it's pretty hard to maintain all the infrastructure. Look's like Cryptopia as the same problem as Yobit to maintain a very large amount of coins and tokens ... Problem with Yobit is not that they have technical issues - every exchange has technical issues sooner or later. Problem with Yobit is that, if you encounter such technical problem, you have NO support at Yobit. You can open support tickets - chances are they will not answer them.You mention Cryptopia: that's not at all the same approach! These guys from Cryptopia WILL answer back, even if it could take some time - but they always answer back. Many people have coin stuck in limbo at Yobit. For months. I have yet to have a support ticket go unanswered; unless its from a ticket that did not request or ask anything such as the one where I inform them they are on an XVG sidechain, not the main chain. All went answered. Most (if not all) failed ETH deposits have been because the deposits were from some sort of unsupported smart contract... I.E. it was not actual ETH directly sent. |

is there a reason to recompile more than one XMR app? I mean; I just wanted to provide a legitimate outlet to a no devfee miner for my miner batch/packages I am assembling. I liked XMR-stak because it incorporated Nvidia as well as AMD cards; as well as supporting all my pre-CUDA7 devices. (470, 550, 550ti, 650, 650ti, etc etc.) Something I am mainly on the look out for is: an all-around good version of SGMiner that handles everything from X11->X16R and everything in between for AMD cards. I don't have my hands on a stable and reliable "AMD 'other algo' miner" as of yet. Same for equihash and ETH miners. ETH is bottom of my list as it is its own animal; and not a coin/platform I ever believed in. I only use ETH on exchanges for selling otherwise unsellable coins at a profit. If I can not make a profit on DOGE markets; usually I can squeeze a profit out of going from ALT->ETH->BTC. Since ETH doesn't scale as small as DOGE, its easier to pinch out a modest profit. I already have the nvidia side almost handled; I just want to find a few more no fee sources like for equihash and possibly one for ETH. I wonder if it works with RX 550 cards. The claymore miner does not work with that.
I've already tested with a rx560, so I don't see why it wouldn't work; the algo isn't super dependent on memory size AFAIK. Side note: With this new no-devfee recompiled version; it has been maintaining a more steady hashrate report at the pool. fewer wild swings, etc. as well as a better monthly income as per nanopool's estimate. I think it is due in part to the miner app disconnecting; and reconnecting to the pool and getting auto-diff reset when a block change happens during devfee mining. The first few lower diff shares tend to get a fake hashrate bump etc. I see it now. Devfee mining really hurt the miners profits in the end.... Maybe you guys will see it eventually. I wish people treated mining apps as people treated software in the early 90's on BBS's...... We would be a better society as a whole. FYI: sorry for the damaged first upload. I had no clue until something was mentioned. If anyone had downloaded when I first uploaded; I suggest replacing it with the current posted version at the top of this thread. |

Up to over 24 hours here. I notice the BERN in clusters every day or so in the list. I just want to know everything is ok. The profits look really good, and there are other people mining, but it's just making me nervous that my balance hasn't hardly changed in a day...
check the pool stats tab, and click on the algo (x14) on left. it will load up the coins mining and more stats as well as graphs and a total coin readout. Sometimes, you will see credits there, but not on your wallet page for several hours. Its just a good place to look to check TTF and last blocks found. |

I am doing a bit on nicehash with a few cpus.
The funny part is, the main reason I wanted to remove the devfee; is because nanopool emails me every time the any miner goes offline for the dev share. I haven't had the email all night now... but I wont stop with my old cards mining XMR until I reach the 1XMR payout limit. Still trying my luck with RVN... holding off on my usual zpool steady earnings to get at least 1K coins saved up... who knows. may become gold. BUB on yobit has begin to climb again.... Dev went silent (as he said he may be) and people panic sold. the dev bought most of the coins. Ive been buying a bunch myself. Dev announces hes been buying the coins and others notice the prime wallet growing again.... im already over 4x my investment; so; to the moon with her Its only just begun. |
