1  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Any opinions on what I should do with my existing 750ti rig? on: August 23, 2017, 02:28:19 AM

  I have this rig that I used to mine dash with, but its worthless for that for some time now.  I run it on kopiemtu from a USB stick.  I have been switching around mining mona/lbc/groestl for the past few months.  I unfortunately can't mine eth or xmr with it using kopiemtu.  (kopiemtu does support some of those altcoins, but not with my old cards)

  Anyone have any suggestions for me to best utilize this? 

  Should I get a cheap SSD and install full blown linux and use simpleminer or pimpOS and mine eth or xmr?  Just keep mining the 3 I am based on whats most profitable, or is it approaching time to just scrap it.  I was thinking of buying a solar panel so that the power is "free" and then just run it til it dies.  Just thought I would see if anyone had any other things I hadn't thought of.  Anyone still doing anything with a 750ti rig and care to share?  Thanks.

Sorry maybe I asked in unclear way, let me try again.  Its ccminer on kopiemtu 3.0.  Whatever version comes with that.  

I just need to tell it to set the lower powerlimit of 35-40w instead of what seems to be defaulting to 150w in the miner.  Is there any way to change that limit lower when I launch ccminer was my question so that it won't just fail to even start the mining process.  Or if ccminer will not support mining those coins on a 750ti rig then so be it.

So ccminer defaults are trying to set power limit of 150w, I want to find out how to change that and set a lower limit for this rig since the cards are nowhere near that power usage and there is some safeguard that only allows the 30-50w range for those cards.

Had an issue I cannot figure out how to resolve.  Running 3.0 with a 750ti mining rig.  I did the thing listed here to remove the ccminer_all and point it at ccminer to support the older cards.  Works great for most coins except for two.

If I try to mine Monero or Decred I get an error when I start miners that the power limit of 150W is too high.  (I agree 150w is way too high an upper limit for 750ti cards.) 

Can I change this in the .conf files?  Or do I have to go elsewhere?  I think the error message said it expects something between 30-50w or something in that range.

I spent a lot of time searching these forums but I am not able to figure out how to change this.  Thanks in advance.

PS  all the various miners listed in the tips that point to mbl.cash domains have died it seems.  Anyone know an alternate host site?  Was just trying to get my rig setup to be able to mine a handful of altcoins I think could maybe have legs so I can build up a small stake of each.
