1  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Here some Taxes Paid in order to mining ETH on: June 28, 2017, 09:45:10 PM
Ethermine doesn't take 0.1 Eth per ether you make, you could probably use windows if you have it and save yourself the 2$ monthly, for the exchange it could be depending on your website.

Depending on the offer of each website, payout schemes may differ:
a) http://ethpool.org is a predictable Ethereum solo mining pool and implements a solo
mining payout scheme. Each submitted share will increase the credits of the Miner who
submitted the share by the fixed share difficulty of the pool. The Miner who
accumulated the most credits will receive the reward of the next block that has been
mined by the pool and his credits will be reset to his current credits minus the credits of
the runner up Miner. "Uncles" are distributed in a similar way only that the credits of
the Miner receiving the uncle reward will not be reset.

b) http://ethermine.org is an Ethereum mining pool using the traditional Pay-Per-Last-NShares
("PPLNS") payout scheme. This reward system is round based, whereby one
round has an arbitrary number (N) of minutes. When a block has been found by the
pool, the block reward is distributed according to the number and difficulty of the shares
submitted during the last hour. Payout takes place immediately after the minimum
payout amount of 1 "Ether" has been reached. However, the payout threshold is
customizable (minimum 0,1 "Ether", maximum 10 "Ether").

c) http://etc.ethermine.org is an Ethereum Classic mining pool using the traditional PPLNS
payout scheme. The payout scheme is working exactly in the same way as explained
under b) above. Payout takes place immediately after the customizable minimum
payout amount has been reached.

d) http://zcash.flypool.org is a Zcash mining pool using the traditional PPLNS payout
scheme. The payout scheme is working exactly in the same way as explained under b)
above. Payout takes place immediately after the minimum payout amount of 0,01 ZEC
has been reached. However, the payout threshold is customizable (minimum 0,001 ZEC,
maximum 10 ZEC).

still not 0.1 eth per 1 eth

mine on a standard pool like supernova so you can see the dashboard and how many coin you are making, many tho k the earning will be less but it's just the variance
ethermine is a bigger pool than suprnova

Try asking here for help
https://www.reddit.com/r/EtherMining/comments/6jjhob/ethereum_code_optimized_for_some_nvidian_cards/

ethereum speed depend mostly on memory OC, 1060 should do 23-25mhs OC-ed

Maybe more if Claymore did not hate NV, as dual mining is unusable to NV dual no asm optimizations and hash drop is 80% more on ETH on NV compared to AMD  Grin
What? dual mining works fine on nvidia. I lose about 1Mh/s per card at dcri 59
4  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: 8 - 11 GPU Rig, which PSUs to choose? on: June 27, 2017, 04:13:00 PM
Hi,

I am going to build an 8 - 11 GPU Rig (depends on how many cards I can get to run on an Asus Z270-A mainboard (using 1 M.2 to PCIe adapter and also 1 PCIe to 4 Port PCIe adapter, see pic).
I will use only NVIDIA 1060 (some 3 GB / some 6 GB) cards, cause others are extremely overpriced.

I would prefer to use 2 seperate PSUs, cause it's much cheaper than 1 big PSU.
Would 2 700 Watt PSUs (be quiet! Pure Power 10-CM 700W) be enough to power the whole rig?
I am planning to undervolt (65%) and overclock the cards (core +120, mem +850) and think 1 card will user 90 - 110 Watt.
If I am right, the maximum for 11 GPUs would be around 1210 Watt and then there would be some power for the rest of the system (CPU, RAM, etc.).
Or is this too less power?

If I use 2 PSUs, will I have to use a special link cable, between the PSUs or will it also work if I just connect the additional cards to PSU2?

Do you think, that these 1 PCIe to 4 port PCIe adapter will work on the Asus Z270-A mainboard? Or will even more than 1 of that adapters will work on that mainboard?


Last question:
The Asus Z270-A mainboard has 2 x M.2 slots. I will use one slot for M.2 to PCIe adapter. So can I run my system using a M.2 SSD in the second M.2 slot or is it blocked cause of the use of slot 1? I am asking, cause I did read, that only one M.2 to PCIe adapter will work on that mainboard, so I am unsure if a SSD will work in the other M.2 slot.

Also this may not be a profitable rig, profits are rapidly dropping, and you may not breakeven before profits go to under a $1 a day.

Yes that is correct. I think the nicehash software actually uses Claymore and EWBF miners to mine in the background.

The nicehash service is essentially a place you can sell your hashrate and other people can rent it to mine for themselves.

You run the software and then you will have to benchmark your hardware which will score your hashrates for each algo.

Then using the scores the nicehash miner will automatically switch between coins as to what is most profitable.

You will then be paid in BTC directly without the hassle of selling the coins that you mine.

It a simple way to get you started right away, expose you different algos and you can get insight into your hardware.

Remember nicehash generally is not as profitable using a pool to mine the coins for yourself.

blockchain.info wallet is actually fairly secure and you will need an address for the nicehash miner.

Enjoy!


The best thing about nicehash is that it is pay per share, so if you are not on a fulltime mining rig, starting and stopping is a lot easier to keep steady payouts.

Don't be so mean guys I'm just newbie to the whole mining thing just saw somewhere on aliexpress ltc miners and I thought they can mine all scrypt currencies... so I guess I need to build gpu rig ... thank you for the replies..

So how exactly do you plan to make a profit?

Use this and tell me how profitable youll be: http://www.mycryptobuddy.com/EthereumMiningCalculator/path?hashrate=30&powerCost=0.12&power=100&chartView=profits
lets say I get 6 x 290/390 on good price thats 150-60 mh/s on current rate(249$) and difficulty my profit will be 575$ without the electricity bill which I'm not paying Smiley
This doesn't account for future difficulty increases. The profit on ether is roughly half of what it was two weeks ago. It will probably get cut in half again or worse, and that 4 month breakeven becomes 8 months or 16 months, is it worth it then? There are tons of new people everyday on here, that is why everyone is making fun of you for not doing the research about asics.

Does your dashboard show an unpaid balance? If yes, goto the settings tab and you will see why the wallet ist still empty Wink

Dashboard?
settings tab??

Please, treat me like I was just born  Smiley

Your dashboard on ethermine.org
Enter your address and click on "check status".

Forget about the above post:
Quote
you have to mine about two-three months to get first result)))
That is complete nonsense.

Right, with a minimum payout of 0.05 eth, 32MH/s should be around 4 days.
he doesn't know even about dashboard, and you think he could change minimum payout? )) complete nonsense
True, i should start offering remote management services for noobs.

Look at amazon for GPUs AMD RX470/480/570/580 or Nvidia 1060/1070
There is a lack of GPUs in the whole world

I am looking mainly for asic miner not building gpu rigs... That was the reason for the topic I need advice on good miner for the money (2,5k) and fast delivery...

Regards.

take your money and light it on fire, that is what is going to happen if someone sells you an asic miner for ethereum. They don't exist and won't exist. I am sure someone will try and scam you and sell you an asic.

You know, nVidia speed is not dropping after every epoch, which leads me to think AMD might be able to fix that on driver level.
i hope so  it will come soon because the profit $1 on card is not so scary for me just the lower hashrate make me sick
just mine a different coin, it is just the dag file of eth that is causing the lower hashrate, so other coins won't have a drop
11  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Profitability on: June 26, 2017, 06:29:40 PM
Last week.

RX 470 4GB made $7/day with dual mining

Today...

$3.50/day


Still profitable but a crazy drop in such a short amount of time...



I wouldn't be surprised if it gets chopped in half again, then lots of people will start to quit.

Any chance these new optimizations can be added? I don't want to give up dual mining. https://www.reddit.com/r/EtherMining/comments/6jjhob/ethereum_code_optimized_for_some_nvidian_cards/
13  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Profitability on: June 26, 2017, 04:23:23 PM
Hello, guys what do you think about the profitability in the near future. Like two, three months. mining on RX 5xx and 4xx will be still profitable? what about Rx vega how much it can change market? what witch epoch ?? the hashrate will drop so hard. what when the ethereum proof of stake. the miners will change the Currencies.
In the last two weeks my profitability has gone from $32 a day to $24. Added almost 2 months to my breakeven.

msi z170a gaming m5 has 7pcie and 1 m.2 slot, is there any body use the m.2 slot to create A 8 card rig?
when I get two more cards next week I am going to try. I have the m.2 adapter and it works fine

They make about $75 profit on the kits, I bought one, now know exactly what parts to buy on my own. Also bought their case for $250, raised my temps a lot over the dishracks I was using. They offer a good service for beginners but they could do a lot more to get repeat business.
16  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: First Asic for SIA - Obelisk SC1 on: June 20, 2017, 11:46:15 PM
I don't know if anybody else saw this. but they just announced the very first Asic for SIA, called the Obelisk SC1.

http://cryptomining-blog.com/8837-siacoin-sc-to-get-a-dedicated-mining-hardware-asic-device/

Sia Coin is primarily used to buy and sell data storage space. To be honest, I had no idea SIA was in any way/ shape / form legit enough to warrant ASIC development for their blockchain.

Everything I knew about SIA could be summed up in 2 phrases 1) backed by storage space, and 2) You can dual mine it with Ethereum.

PLEASE edumacate me. I want to know everything now that there's an ASIC coming out. What wallet should I use? All I've found thus far is an official desktop wallet, which isn't that bad, but kind of a pain.

I tend to think the introduction of this new ASIC should bring about a lot of new interest in SIA. Look at what's happened to Litecoin and Dash since the advent of Scrypt and X11 ASICs that mine them. "Correlation" does not indicate "causation", since ASIC companies choose which coins they think are worth pursuing and blahblahblah

LONG STORY SHORT -

1) I think the price of SIA will go up either BECAUSE of these Asics, or because of the reason Obelisk decided to produce the Asic in the first place, or some combination of the two.

2) I. want. this. Asic. I admit, I know very little about SIA, but since I'm bullish on crypto mining, I'm willing to risk the hardware costs just to have the first ASIC that mines SIA. I have to think I am not alone.

3) Until we get more info later in the week, this announcement creates more questions than it answers... Specs, power consumption, hash rate etc. Most importantly: What's the price? Where do you buy it? Who do you buy it from?

In the words of Futurama, "SHUT UP AND TAKE MY MONEY!"

If anybody here has any real information... or speculation, rumors, questions of your own, hunches and guesswork, PLEASE post below...

Even if you just want to make up disinformation to throw us off the sent, I'm desperate and I need a fix.
 Cry Cry Angry Shocked Embarrassed





I'd like to know the source of this because right now everything I saw said "details" by Friday -- now it seems the rumor mill is calling this an Asic.

Probably overclocked.
It is, but when it is much OC, WatchDog error appears. And with my OC miner is stable w/o WD error.
have afterburner poen and look at power usage, typically when mine drops the power usage randomly also dropped

Hi all,

I started mining with Claymore a few days ago and I am seeing an upsetting thing.
My GPU is an EVGA GTX 1080 FTW, watercooled, MSI Afterburner reports a RAM frequency of 5000 MHz, which is fine... but when mining with Claymore, the RAM frequency automatically drops to 4500 MHz. If I stop mining and start a game, the frequency goes back to 5000 - the 4500 MHz behavior only appears when mining using Claymore.

I suspect the driver somehow knows I am using Claymore and taxes me for that.
If I boost RAM frequency by +1000, it goes up from 4500 to 5500 MHz and the hash speed goes from 20.5 MH to over 25 MH - 25% boost - but this solution is clumsy, because whenever I stop mining I have to dial back the frequency boost, otherwise as soon as the GPU encounters any regular load, it tries to boost from 5000 to 6000 MHz and the memory can't handle it.

What should I do to keep mining with Claymore, but at correct RAM frequencies?

Hi, I don't have GTX1080 card, but I am currently mine on GTX970 which have similar issue. Try to use the NVSMI tools to raise the card power state from P2 to P0.
NVIDIA card stay in P2 power state when CUDA computing, memory speed will be limited in P2. Raise to P0 to unleash the full clock speed. Hope it will solve your problem.

ref: http://cryptomining-blog.com/tag/nvidia-force-power-state/

This doesn't work on 10 series cards right now, there is a nvidia driver bug.
