1  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Nicehash DaggerHashimoto efficiency on: July 17, 2018, 11:06:14 AM
Hello!
First, thank you for all your answers.
Currently, I'm mining the equihash algorithm on Nicehash. I know it's not profitable for now and even daggerhashimoto isn't profitable for me.
But the problem is that i mined for 0.0005 some months ago when it was profitable and i need 0.0005 to be payed Grin. So I would like to earn
those 0.0005 bitcoin as soon as possible and with the best possible efficiency.

Yes my card is a GEFORCE GTX970, I know it's an old card, that's why i was using it for mining. I'm not doing it to be the most profitable but to learn things.

The real problem comes from Nicehash. As I said, on all the algorithm except Dagger, my card is doing what it should do (benchmark=real hasrate). But with Ethash I benchmark myself through
Nicehash at 19 MH/s and when it turned on, 3 MH/s  Undecided Undecided. Moreover my card seems to do not suffer, it is not doing much calcul beaucse the heat doesn't go up.
Whereas 3 months ago maybe when I mined dagger I was at 19 MH/s as the benchmark said.
Can it come from Nicehash ? Or it is my card ? I read some months ago that because of the development of ethash blockchain, the graphic card RAM will increase (to load the blockchain) and that it will cross the 4 GB level. Did it already happened ?

This afternoon, i'll mine with claymore to see if my hashrate is of 3 or 19 on ethash.

Thank you again.
Have a good day.

Alexandre

Hi guys !

Firstly, sorry for my English because I'm french Grin.
I have a little question for you. I like to mine with my PC on Nicehash. But currently the profitability of equihash, the algorithm I mined is pretty low. I would like to mine DaggerHashimoto but little problem... Angry Indeed when I benchmark I get 19 MH/s for a 970 without overclock or something, just basically. When the mining begin I am at 3 MH/s  Grin Grin. Moreover Nicehash thinks it's profitable... And strangely my card temperature does not go to high (50°C) So I think that something is blocking the miner... Because I remember that maybe 2 months ago I mined DaggerHashimoto I benchmarked at 19 and I mined at 19 x) So I do not really understand what is happening...
Sorry if this topic already exists, I did not find him !
I hope you will be able to answer me and I wish you a good day !

Alexandre
