Power supply.  You need to buy a real PSU.  Viper sounds like some crap Chinese junk that's probably outputting more like 300W than the rated 750W.

I won't bother wasting my time trying to help people out in this thread anymore.

Good, we didn't ask for you help in the first place.  Tongue

its a good idea to have your system autoreboot every 12-24 hours for increased uptime

Clueless.   Roll Eyes 

I've got a Windows machine mining, and it's somewhere near 100 days since it was rebooted.  It's an ancient old Dell machine, so it's not even anything fancy - it had 5 years of 24/7 use as a desktop, I stuck a couple of GPUs in it, and dumped it in the corner of the server room, and now it's just sitting there mining happily.  Heck, it's still running cgminer 2.something

Well the Cube doesn't really need anything to run.  But, you can run BFGMiner on the Mac using nwooll's Homebrew scripts.

I think if you're going to invest $14k, you should do a bit more research, rather than just asking a question here.  There's so much information on this forum (hint, start in the Hardware forums).

You should be able to get 800+ on those cards each.

settings, please? I can't get over 740 with mine, MSI has been a much better performer for me than sapphire dual-x or gigabyte windforce

800+ is impossible.  My elcheapo MSI 280X only gets 688kH, because it's crappy core only does 980MHz stable.  720kH is the normal top-end speed of these cards, 800kH is a drug-induced hallucination.
907  Bitcoin / Mining software (miners) / Re: Problems with Antminers on: February 25, 2014, 12:08:55 PM
I can't seem to limit my Antminer U1's speed any more.
It looks like the always goes to 2.1 GHh/s, no matter if I start them with 0781 or any other value. Then they overheat, and gets reconnected.

Any idea what can be wrong here ?

You need to fan cool the miners.

I highly doubt you have a HD5970 with 256MB of RAM.  The standard for a 5970 is 2GB, 1GB per chip. 

It should mine DOGE fine, probably about 500kH.

Would the author consider talking to Luke-Jr about adding CUDA support to bfgminer?

See: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=168174.msg5333306#msg5333306

At the moment it seems more likely that I will be pushing forward with new features to cudaminer, and leave it to someone else to merge CUDA code into cgminer or bfgminer.

NOTE: OC support for Linux is somewhat likely to come, so serious miners won't be stuck having to run Windows
for very long.

Failover and monitoring is on my agenda. Does anyone have links to documentation of the established hardware monitoring APIs?

Fair enough, I understand the want to make your own mining program. 

To me, a non-programmer, it would make sense to merge your code in to something that's already a solid, stable, well supported program that already has all that groundwork done.  To me, you're reinventing the wheel. Smiley

Which version of drivers are you trying?  Would have been useful information in the first post.

You're in cloud kookoo land if you thing $300 is a high performance PC.  Add a zero to the end of that and you're getting there.

Though, all that said, if you could spend $500 you could get a decent enough machine - $200 for a low-end PC that has two PCI-E slots.  Add a pair of nVidia 750Ti cards which give you about 500kH with less than 120W power use.  Mine altcoins, with that and you'll get about 0.005BTC a day from somewhere like Wafflepool or Scryptguild.

Obviously you need to put the board in the dishwasher on it's own, not with your lasagna dish and cereal bowls.  You don't want a lump of beef or a Rice Krispie stuck in your PCI-E slots.

You shouldn't need to rinse your risers if you don't get them soapy.

So, nVidia's new Maxwell cards (the GTX 750Ti is the first one available) do 245kH at less than 60W power consumption.  Is there any chance of bfgminer incorporating CUDA mining?  CUDAMiner seems a bit of a bodge of pooler's CPUMiner.  

To quote Tom's:
Today, four GM107-based cards in a mining rig should be able to outperform a Radeon R9 290X for less money, using less power.

Bitcointalk has been compromised at least 3 times since I've been here.  That's just the ones that had a visible effect and were thus publicly known.

Maybe everyone could send the forum operator some BTC to get some better software?  I recon 6000BTC would do it.   Roll Eyes
917  Other / Meta / Re: Why does the forum keep going offline? on: February 23, 2014, 07:36:08 PM
Why not? Isn't there any reliable/trustworthy cdn service out there?

I prefer not to trust any service.

You're down to your last BTC4999, can't afford to pay for a real host, eh?   Roll Eyes
918  Bitcoin / Mining support / Re: Bitmine KNC Avalon Clone - Help me please on: February 23, 2014, 02:52:05 PM
Hey everybody,

i bought a Bitemine KNC Avalon Clone on Ebay.


You need to figure out what it is you bought.  You say Bitmine, then you say Bitemine, and I'm not sure what KNC has got anything to do with it.
919  Bitcoin / Mining support / Re: guiminer problem on: February 23, 2014, 02:35:05 PM
do u have an idea of the problem ?


Yeah, you're using outdated, old, crap software. 

Try something made recently like sgminer that works with recent drivers and hardware.
920  Other / CPU/GPU Bitcoin mining hardware / Re: Bitburner Fury Bitfury ASIC Bitcoin Miner 100GH !!! No Group Buy ?? on: February 23, 2014, 02:28:58 PM
I've got one.  It's OK, but it's not the most reliable thing.  

They pretend to be an Avalon, which is totally bizarre.  cgminer does support them.  

Mine does freak out quite a bit, it either just stops hashing, ZOMBIES, goes totally dead, or hangs up then turns its fan off and heats up to about 120C.  I get about 51GH out of mine, at 275MHz/1.1V.  It's got it's own PSU, so it's not a power issue as far as I can tell.
