1  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: PSU max load on: February 08, 2018, 12:51:42 PM
That depends on the quality of your PSU. Top tier PSU would be able to handle that load, although I won't be using or recommend anybody to put that load into a PSU since you're going to lose the efficiency which most PSU have their peak efficiency on 50% - 70% load. Using 2 psu's instead would be a safer choice. Just my 2c

Maybe if I undervolt it. Would that help?

Hello. Is having 90% psu load safe while mining? I would like to add AMD R9 390 to my pc which already has rx 560 in it. I checked power load on be quiet site and it says that my pc will consume 481W, i have 500W psu and im not sure if its safe

Hello, so i have a 2 quick questions. Can I buy e.g amd rx 560 and r9 290x and will it work with good enough psu, and is rx 460 and rx 560 the same card and will work with my rx 560(i'm choosing these cards bcs they are quite cheap in poland)

Hello! I have a really quick question will my current 500w psu handle another rx560 used for mining. Heres my current setup https://imgur.com/a/KLPY8

Speccy can't tell us about your PSU, but assuming it's a quality 500W PSU, you should be fine adding another RX560.

Its Antec 500w, i think its good quality bcs it has lots of good ratings

500w and a antec , id say its bronze rated

So will it work?

9  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Share loss after reinstalling system on: January 05, 2018, 03:18:10 PM
I dont really know why the shares went so low
With Win10 you've had 29 shares in 4 hours, and with Win7 you've had 24 shares in 6 hours. Noticeable, but still within the normal variance range (4-6 hours is not a long enough period to make any definitive conclusions). There's 2 weeks between the screenshots, so maybe Nanopool has changed their difficulty? Right now it seems to be 5 billion. Do you remember what it was 2 weeks ago?

Oh so thats why. I asked my friend if he also have lost shares and he said yes
10  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Share loss after reinstalling system on: January 05, 2018, 01:25:20 PM
Hello. Receantly i needed to reinstall the system from windows 10 to windows 7. Everything went ok but then i started mining eth.
Before update it looked liek this: https://imgur.com/a/YJ0CF
But after the reinstall it looked like this: https://imgur.com/a/uGh4N
Only thing i changed was adding 1 more hard drive and of course the system. I dont really know why the shares went so low
11  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Linking 2 psu's together on: December 28, 2017, 11:56:03 PM
Hello! I was wondering if its safe to link 2 psu's together using 24-pin splitter. I want to link 500w and 350w psu's together bcs 1 psu won't be able to power 1 rx560 and r9 380. I really don't know that much about this kind of stuff
12  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Mixing amd and nvidia gpus on: December 24, 2017, 08:15:21 PM
Hi i have a quick question: Is it possible to mine ethereum with mix of amd and nvidia cards(1 amd 1 nvidia) using claymore miner
13  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Is it worth to upgrade my current setup for mining ethereum on: December 17, 2017, 05:08:53 PM
With POS coins you are staking coins i.e. holding coins in a full node client wallet to accumulate enough stake to mine a block and earn a reward based on the POS annual percentage rate for that coin. Typically with POS you can hold any number of coins and still be eligible to stake. The more coins you have and the longer you have them staking, the quicker you will be able to earn enough stake to mine a block and earn a POS payment. Your client node doesn't need to be online to earn stake, but it must be online to be able to mine a block to earn a reward.

Ethereum will be switching to a hybrid POS/POW system with the Constantinople hard fork expected early next year and it's expected to switch to fully POS in the Metropolis release by the end of next year. That means you won't be able to mine ETH with GPU's after that and instead you will need to hold a number of coins to stake and generate new ETH as interest on the coins you hold.

Will ethereum classic do that bcs eth and etc have similar value

RX 560's are a good inexpensive low power option for mining ETH. They use about 60 W and if you can get 17 MH/s, that is a very good cost/hash ratio. Increased availability on RX 570/580 from the Vega launch has lowered the demand for lower performance cards like the 560 for mining ETH. I would say you could definitely mine profitably with the 4GB cards before the ETH switch to fully POS sometime next year and can still mine other ETH based clones.

Whats pos? And will it change a lot of things in ethereum mining?
15  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Is it worth to upgrade my current setup for mining ethereum on: December 17, 2017, 02:59:25 PM
Are there no other graphics cards available locally? Yes, you will be able to mine Ethereum with that GPU but it won't be able to do so efficiently. At about the same amount of power consumption, you could already be hashing at around 23-24 MH with a GTX 1060. GTX 1060s are also more future proof than the RX 560 because it has 6GB memory. If you could buy a 1060 for a few more dollars i'd highly recommend getting them instead.


Unfortunately gtx 1060's are about 300-400 pln more expensive and locally in this price they only have 3gb of memory. I wouldnt like to buy it from ebay or amazon or somewhere else and pay 30pln shipping and wait like 2-3 weeks
16  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Is it worth to upgrade my current setup for mining ethereum on: December 17, 2017, 02:46:08 PM
I would like to add more rx 560's to my ASUSTeK COMPUTER INC. P8H77-V LE motherboard and will it be worth even adding something to it.
I realized that rx 560 gpu will be the  most profitable for me because I live in poland and the currency here is relatively cheap(1 usd = 3.50 pln) and rx 560 costs 615 pln and has a hashrate of about 17mh/s. So can i add more of these gpu's and come out with a profit of some sorts?
17  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Mining ethereum with more gpu's on: December 15, 2017, 01:32:15 PM
So i would like to mine ethereum with 2 rx 560's. I already have 1 rx 560 ASUSTeK COMPUTER INC. P8H77-V LE motherboard and antec 500 power supply. So can i ethereum  mine with 2 of these cards or do i need to change some hardware
18  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Can you mine Dashcoin with usb miners on: December 03, 2017, 08:32:34 PM
I was wondering if I could mine Dashcoin with usb miners e.g Gekkoscience
19  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: What are the most profitable coins to mine with usb miners on: December 03, 2017, 04:04:04 PM
You need low diff coins that the USB miner supports.

There's two kinds of USB miners today: SHA-256 or Scrypt.

For SHA-256, use this list to find the most profitable:

http://whattomine.com/asic?utf8=%E2%9C%93&sha256f=true&factor%5Bsha256_hr%5D=16&factor%5Bsha256_p%5D=4&factor%5Bscrypt_hash_rate%5D=500.0&factor%5Bscrypt_power%5D=800.0&factor%5Bx11_hr%5D=15000.0&factor%5Bx11_p%5D=1200.0&factor%5Bqk_hr%5D=450.0&factor%5Bqk_p%5D=75.0&factor%5Bqb_hr%5D=450.0&factor%5Bqb_p%5D=84.0&factor%5Bcost%5D=0.13&sort=Revenue&volume=0&revenue=24h&factor%5Bexchanges%5D%5B%5D=&factor%5Bexchanges%5D%5B%5D=bittrex&factor%5Bexchanges%5D%5B%5D=bleutrade&factor%5Bexchanges%5D%5B%5D=cryptopia&factor%5Bexchanges%5D%5B%5D=hitbtc&factor%5Bexchanges%5D%5B%5D=poloniex&factor%5Bexchanges%5D%5B%5D=yobit&dataset=Main&commit=Calculate

For Scrypt, use this:

http://whattomine.com/asic?utf8=%E2%9C%93&factor%5Bsha256_hr%5D=16.0&factor%5Bsha256_p%5D=4.0&scryptf=true&factor%5Bscrypt_hash_rate%5D=4&factor%5Bscrypt_power%5D=4&factor%5Bx11_hr%5D=15000.0&factor%5Bx11_p%5D=1200.0&factor%5Bqk_hr%5D=450.0&factor%5Bqk_p%5D=75.0&factor%5Bqb_hr%5D=450.0&factor%5Bqb_p%5D=84.0&factor%5Bcost%5D=0.13&sort=Revenue&volume=0&revenue=24h&factor%5Bexchanges%5D%5B%5D=&factor%5Bexchanges%5D%5B%5D=bittrex&factor%5Bexchanges%5D%5B%5D=bleutrade&factor%5Bexchanges%5D%5B%5D=cryptopia&factor%5Bexchanges%5D%5B%5D=hitbtc&factor%5Bexchanges%5D%5B%5D=poloniex&factor%5Bexchanges%5D%5B%5D=yobit&dataset=Main&commit=Calculate


Note that all I did is use the filters on whattomine.com for the hashrate of the common SHA-256 (15 ghz on a GekkoScience 2Pac) and Scrypt (4 mh/s on a Futurebit Moonlander2)

So basically the easiest sha-256 coin (because i was concidering that kind) coin to mine is DashCoin

I dont really have money to buy another gpu so the best option for me would be to buy usb miner. So what coins are the most profitable to mine with usb miners I'm new to mining cryptocurrencies
