1  Other / CPU/GPU Bitcoin mining hardware / Re: Question about PCI (legacy) to PCIe adapters. on: April 02, 2014, 11:44:01 PM
I know this is an older topic, but i'm curious as well.

http://www.startech.com/Cards-Adapters/Slot-Extension/PCI-to-PCI-Express-Adapter-Card~PCI1PEX1

Was looking at those. The price sucks but for some it's much cheaper than buying a new mobo/proc/ram (in my case I could really use 1 for my rig).

If anyone has recent exp. with these please let us know!

Interesting you achieved this with risers. Have you ever tried to see what kind of hashrate you get without risers on those cards?

I'd be curious to see how that's possible on a board with only one 16x slot.. Wink

I was also thinking about a coin with an automated air drop (the preliminary success of
Auroracoin seems to indicate that Airdrops are actually a good thing).

Each wallet that at a given time has X coins in it, will receive a 3*X air drop. Creates instant interest
in mining (and possibly buying) some coins to get several wallets with the given minimum.

Repeat this cycle every 3 months, upping the next minimum coin requirement to X' = 5 X.
This leaves a 1*X coin gap per wallet until the next air drop, requiring more mining (or buying)
to keep up.

It's kind of a proof of stake system with a continued motivation for mining or buying.
Note that the airdrops are NOT filled from pre-mine, but rather as PoS transactions.

Some inflation is built in, however it should not be a problem if the number of users of the coin
grows at about the same rate.

I like where this is headed!

Looking at the pool stats of the ONLY mining pool (which has 454 kHash/s) I would say the top miners are most likely GPU farms. The kHash rating per GPU would be in a similar area as for Yacoin, given that the total scratchpad size is about 4 MB.

If (when) you get this working someone should put up a pool for us nvidia miners to bring some healthy hash to the network. Wink

Hi guys, I hope you can help me out here,

I posted here earlier already but I get this error:

error -4 enqueueing kernel onto command

i have 4 R9 280x and 4gb is that the problem?
in short i believe yes for more than 2 cards mining u need 8 gb ram minimum

I find that a good rule of thumb is 4gb per card, I have rigs with 4 x 290 and they were fail at 8gb so I installed 16 gb and it worked just fine. If I were to make a guess I would imagine you need to match your combined GPU memory in available system memory.

More system ram does nothing for mining. I've seen 6gpu rigs running 2GB (linux). 4GB is all you need for Win.

I like new coins as much as the next miner does, but as a former cab driver I don't see this coin going far. Drivers want CASH, plain and simple. Sure most taxis accept credit cards, but most drivers will make up 1000000 excuses to get cash instead. CC's carry hefty fees and the money earned cannot be spent immediately, which a driver may need for food/gas/etc. Also, drivers are self-employed. It's not the cab companies you need to convince to accept coins, it's the drivers.

Best of luck with this, but I don't see the value in it.

So I see over 10 million accepts in cgminer, this is a concern... some real answers would be in order.

Thanks captcha...

I've stumbled upon Gandalf50's blog, windowsmatters.com and he has a dual boot premade winpe x86/64 iso.
I'm gonna try adding gpu drivers to it as well as miners and see how it goes.

Check it out, looks pretty cool.
Have you used pnputil.exe to install drivers before?

I actually just tried it today, it's how I realized I could boot a x64 WinPE to a x86 machine.

pnputil.exe to install drivers, never tried that. I've gotten used to adding drivers through DISM...I have a feeling that it will only load previously installed drivers, not install them. If you're running it live it they certainly won't hold until next boot. I could be talking out of my ass here so let me know if it works  Grin

Been working on this as well without much luck..

@cbuchner1: Is it possible to set the "intensity" for CudaMiner like cgminer and other GPU miners?  When I am doing other things on my machine, it would be nice to have a way to lower its resource utilization.

-i 1 = useable pc
-i 0 = somewhat useable pc

Just got 2 of these, running at 2.5Gh/2.6Gh using osc6_bits=54 with <1% HW errors.

Is there a way to set different osc6_bits for each without having to do it manually in bfgminer

2-6-2014 -- GTX660

--algo=keccak -d gtx660 -l K1000x32 -L 64 -i 0 -H 1

~65% usage and 70-80% TDP

58Mh/s benchmark! Had 3 out of mem errors on start. Not bad for first run!

Changed to -L 128, gained 10Mh/s, and no out of memory errors!

I'm happy with cryptopool.eu. Was a bit shaky at the start but I got my coins after some time mining and nice too see many active workers in the pool.

Ty ty for good work setting up the pool and hope you will have other coins in the future! Where can I donate?

Cheers
/Happy miner

Agreed. I'm seeing my coin. No issues.

@CryptoHashery You might what to fix your're getting started page, the url is wrong (stratum+tcp// twice) and will surely confuse some peeps.

Like this coin because it is well prepared. Quite unusual these days..

+1 for online wallet

CryptoHashery - not a good solution for a pool. They really couldn't handle PENG launch and they stil owe me 110k PENG, because I can not withdraw it from my account. I was with contact with them but they didn't help and the problem is not solved. I hope guys from CryptoHashery will read this.

So until they solve old problems I am a NO NO to CryptoHashery pool.

CryptoHashery pool = problems

I've been mining with cryptohashery for months (various coins) and have never had an issue with them.

I'm currently mining on poolnetwork.org? wtf? cryptohashery isn't showing any stats though.

And poolnetwork only has about 3.7 mh/s now but the net hashrate is ~80 mh/s? What's going on?!

I think you're lost. This coin hasn't launched yet.
