Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: 1080Ti Specific - Best mining option

Hello, I'm trying to figure out how many GPU's I will be able to add to my motherboard. It is an Crosshair V Formula Crosshair V Formula Expansion Slots PCI Express 2.0 x16 3 (dual x16 or x16, x8, x8) 1 (x4 mode) PCI Express x1 1 x PCI Express x1 PCI Slots 1 x PCI Slot I tried connecting to a few of the slots and some would boot up and get into windows and then go black and the others booted up all the way through to the desktop. I though originally that each slot could have a gpu with the risers. Please help me understand which slots can be used for gpu's. Thanks.

Quick question, I'm building a 1080 TI rig that I want to use my old motherboard and processor to start. It is the ASUS Crosshair V Formula AM3+ AMD 990FX SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.0 ATX AMD Gaming Motherboard with 3-Way SLI/CrossFireX and I'm using AMD Phenom II X6 1100T. Will this be fine as far as the setup. It looks to me to have enough Pci-e lanes for the 5 1080 ti's but I didn't know if motherboard matters as far the setup. Thanks.

trying SIGT now and it saying 35 M/H sec which ends up like 3 dollars a day? How is this much better then ZEC or just using NH

I have been mining it all morning with 2 1080 ti's and have seen only .62 cents earned. My cpu has seen 0.1 cents. I'm new to the whole pplns thing where payment depends on the amount of blocks found. Are these type of pools good in the long run or should I be looking at other pools that calculate a set cost per hashing a day. Thanks. Check the blocks If the pool doesn't control much of the hash on that coin, then you're gonna get slow blocks and your earnings will be very up and down. If you hit a few blocks in an hour you make more than you did for the 8 hours before when you only hit 2. IME the best coins are ones with very fast blocks so people don't bother to mess around with cloud mining hogging up the shares. (although people do pull other shenanigans). As to whether or not pplns or whatever is good. Seems to be at least on short block time algos. Again seems to be abusable if you can just hop from the major pools every 10 minutes with cloud mining. But that's just what i've picked up in threads and am not qualified to back that up with any real technical knowledge. From what I hear they do control quite a bit of the hash for zec. I remember hearing about fluctuations like that and people doing that type of stuff on the forums as well. I think I will give it a day and see how it does for it but I don't really know if I like the up's and downs of it. I like steady and I was using flypool before and it seemed like it paid out after a day. I just liked its ui and that I could mine monero and zec on it utilizing it. I just got to find someone where else good to mine monero now. Seems like CPU mining has long payouts because you need 0.03 or 0.1 to get paid out most pools.

Hey I just started doing CPU mining with this pool and was wondering if I'm correct in the payout settings. 0.1 - 8000 XMR. Set to '0' for no auto payout. A 0.03 XMR TX fee will apply So if I set the auto pay to drop a payment when I have collected 0.1 XMR, a 0.03 transaction fee will apply? Seems a little high so I was wondering if most people just wait for a higher payout to do that transaction? I think it will take me about a week to get up to 0.1 xmr. Thanks.

I recently got into mining with my 1080 TI but I also have a Ryzen 1800x that does pretty decently with CPU mining totaling about 5.10usd a day. I'm looking to mine directly instead of nicehash as I have already ordered 1 more 1080 TI with the plan of ordering 2 more after this for a total of 4. Is there a better option to nicehash with regard to mining a cpu and gpu at the same time. 5 dollars a day seems pretty good to me but several people have been posting on how nicehash takes quite a bit for the services. NH seems to work well though utilizing my CPU for mining along with the GPU. I have tried EWBF's cuda but I only was mining with GPU which payed less. Electricity is not a concern for me as it is cheap. Any responses would be great for this newbie trying to get into mining. When you say mine directly i assume you will want to pool mine and not solo mine. If so you can easily setup an account with any poolmining site for example dwarfpool or suprnova and choose your coins you want to mine. For cpu id guess youd want to go with monero and possible zcash or dgb for gpu mining. https://dwarfpool.com/ https://www.suprnova.cc/ So how does someone mine from something like dwarfpool or supernova and then mine monero using the cpu? Do you run two mining pools? Well using suprnova as an example, If you have a look you can see all the different coins and algorithims you can run. Just log into whichever one you choose to mine is and go to the help section to download the appropriate mining software. https://xmr.suprnova.cc/index.php?page=gettingstarted thats the monero one which you would download the cpu miner and if you know what coin you want to mine with your 1080 just do the same again. you will be just running two different miners at 2 different pools. Yea looking at suprnova seems like a good way to select the coin I want to mine, I guess I just need to find some tutorials on youtube to setup the miner itself. It looks like there is a good tutorial on how to do this from there. Thanks for the help. I'm guessing a pc can run multiple miners with one focused on cpu and 1 focused on gpu. I will try this later today. Thanks for help helloeverybody. I guess I have to finish up doing NH until they pay me out on the 8th which is kind of a pain. I guess once I have more gpu's I can get paid out faster.
