1  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Pools (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN] profit switching auto-exchanging pool - middlecoin.com on: December 31, 2013, 05:05:51 AM
Just got a payment of .01013789 and I just started this morning, so it was probably for 18 hours of mining on 2.1 mh/s

If it doesn't pick up then I'm going to go back to mining LTC- I would have ended up with .02 BTC through just mining that over a day.

Hopefully it will level out and improve.

Thanks for the quick reply.  I'll give it another day and see what happens.

I started mining this morning about 18 hours ago, and I haven't been able to pull my page up, and haven't gotten any payouts. 

I assume I just need to wait another day and I should start seeing some traction?

BTW I'm mining it with 2.1 mh/s now that I was using for LTC, testing this out to see how it goes.

First order went great, got it in no time flat.

Second order was placed on 5-22 and I haven't heard anything since the order confirmation... 

Hi Jacob,

So sorry for the delay. The manufacturer hasn't been able to keep up with the demand for the 16x-16x risers due to supply issues. However we currently have a shipment in transit and we're expecting them to arrive on either Friday or Monday this week.

I have the rest of your order packed and ready to ship. If you like I can do a split shipment for you, this way you start hashing sooner and we can ship the 16x-16x immediately after they arrive this week.  Smiley

Please let me know if you'd like to go ahead with the split or if you have any questions about this. Thanks!

That's alright, I can wait another week for the complete order.  Thanks for the response- product is great quality!

I had a listing for .5 btc pulled down last night.  'Digital Delivery of Goods' issue.  I hadn't sold a lot of it, probably totalling 2 btc over the last 6 weeks.  Just testing the waters.

I have sold a few bitcoin mining rigs on there though (GPU based).

Just placed a second order.  Quality of the first cables was great!

I see the 16x extenders are on back order- hopefully not too long.

Thanks Again!

I have my home server which runs Home Server 2011 (Same core as 2008 R2) with no issues.  Just runs 1 card though. 

If you have to pay for the license a Server 2008 R2 license is going to run you ~$650 vs ~$150 for Windows 7/8...

Placed an order on the evening of Friday the third and got it on sat the 10th.

Quality looks good and shipping was fast- I'll be back!

did anyone recieved any cable from hashrate store?
are they legit?

Got my order from them in on Saturday (5-10) after placing it on 5-3 at like 10PM CST.  Installed a couple of cables in a rig last night, seem to perform well and the quality looks good, got them in less than half the time at not much more than Chinese non-powered extenders from eBay.

FYI The order was only for 10 cables so your mileage may vary on a larger order. 

I am likely to order from them again in the next week or so if I continue to expand.
11  Other / CPU/GPU Bitcoin mining hardware / Re: Overclock Different GPU's on: May 14, 2013, 07:27:34 PM
Thanks for the tip- I'm running & x64 Pro which I agree can be a bit picky regarding drivers.

I'm currently running 12.8, I'll uninstall and re-install the latest when I get home from work.  After I moved it to the crate and added the 7850 (It was running wirh 2x 7870's before) It wouldn't even let me OC the 7870's anymore.

I should have followed my own advice (Network Admin by profession) and re-installed before I asked... Smiley
12  Other / CPU/GPU Bitcoin mining hardware / Overclock Different GPU's on: May 14, 2013, 04:18:15 PM
So I combined a couple of separate systems into one running in a milk crate last night.

The mobo is from a C2D HP Workstation with 2 PCI-E x16, 1 X8, and 2 X1.

I've currently got to MSI 7870's and a XFX 7850.

I had the 7870's pushing ~475 mh/s ea and the 7850 ~320 OC'd in separate computers.  I wanted to reduce my overhead and test a new setup with risers and such (a proper mining rig).

Now the problem is that I can't seem to overclock them with either Afterburner or Catalyst anymore.  This cuts my production by about ~200 mh/s spread over the three cards.

So the question goes, how do you guys overclock different cards in the same system?  Should I just replace the 7850 with another 7870 and be done with it?

Thanks for the advice- and sorry if it's too much of a NOOB question, I'm starting to figure all of this out. Smiley
13  Other / CPU/GPU Bitcoin mining hardware / Re: DO NOT BUY GPUs to mine! You will not get your money back! on: May 14, 2013, 03:55:48 PM
I'm doing alright so far... Only been doing it about 3 weeks and just last night added enough to get me to 1.5 Gh/s.  New cards bought on sale with rebates and selling game cards brings the cost way down.  Installing them in a handful of systems I had laying around- I've brought in about $140 for $700 in expense so far.

I'm having fun, and it looks like I'm going to do alright- no it won't make me rich, but especially when it comes time to sell cards I think I'll come out ahead by a fair bit.

PS- I did pre-order a BFL Jalapeno a 6 weeks ago.

I am looking into getting another mining rig.. I want to possibly do a 5 gpu setup.. But For some reason i cant find where you guys get your Powered risers..

Can you guys link me to a few reliable sellers?

Thanks

You can definitely make your own if you have experience soldering or getting the pin-outs for PCI-E.

Alternatively, we have a web store with the powered risers you're looking for with flat rate shipping.  Wink

Just let me know if you have any questions or need anything else! You can email us at info@hashrateproducts.com


I Just placed an order on friday, hoping they come soon. I'm planning on combining cards from a couple systems and reduce power overhead... I'll post on quality when they get here.
15  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Best 7950 / manufacturer, comparasion table on: May 07, 2013, 07:28:57 PM
I just built a rig with 3x XFX 7950's and I concur with hem sucking... i have to push them pretty far on the OC to get ~520 ea and they run hot with the alum surrounding the heatsync.  My MSI 7870's hit 475 w/ barely overclocking and eve an HIS 7950 gets 550.

17  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: How much hashing speed of your video card floats? on: May 07, 2013, 07:12:40 PM
I use hd 7850 and hashing speed floats in between 165 and 320, most of the time it is about 200-280. Do you experience large float also? I use bfgminer with auto-fan settings and gpu temperature is around 70C and pretty stable with fan running about 40-41% load.
Are these large variations in hash speed normal?

Thanks

I Have a 7850 hat bounces between 270 and 320, but usually doesn't vary much more than that.

Working through the restrictions myself... been lurking for weeks though...
19  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Config help on: April 24, 2013, 02:23:32 AM
I have adjusted them, I pushed the memory and processor to max before artifacts would appear.  That gave me a bit more- but it seems to max out at 550 and seems to just want to chug along at 48-500.

It's sitting in a PCI-E x16 2.0 slot on a 3.0 C2D system (I had it laying around).

It's a HIS card, do you guys think that's what the performance is due to- would I have better luck with a MSI, ASUS, or other better brand?
20  Other / Beginners & Help / Config help on: April 22, 2013, 05:11:56 PM
Ok, so I'm not a total noob- but still relatively.

I initially setup a 7850 rig and am getting ~350mh/s out of it and am happy with that (unless I shouldn't be).  His weekend I setup a 1x 7950 rig (these are two separate pc's) and am only getting ~485 mh/s where I think I should be getting 550-600.

I'm using guiminer with flags set -v -w256

Any tips on what else I can do?

PS- I was using 50btc, but got tired of their site being down half of the time I went there.  Using btcguild now.

Thanks for the help!
