1  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN] Dogecoin Pool doge.scryptpools.com - 2% fee on: January 08, 2014, 11:35:53 PM
I will donate all 350k of my dogecoin in the pool, but I doubt we will ever get it back.

I had gotten a bit into bitcoin mining before it was big, then got distracted from it. By the time I tried getting back in, I couldn't use my home hardware at all for it. I pretty much gave up at that point. Dogecoin was something that got me interested in mining again, but seeing all my mined coins lost was very disheartening. I didn't even want to think about crypto currencies for the next few weeks, it just got me angy. Then I had an epiphany, I wasn't going to let this defeat me. I took the roughly $140 that my coins were worth and bought another video card for my setup. I'm not going to let this defeat me, I'm going to double down, damnit! Well worth it. Only had the card for less than a week but I'm already having fun with tooling and fine tuning it. I'm also back to browsing forums and sites and checking out the latest cryptocurrencies, though I do worry about those who were let down by this and have yet to restore their faith in mining!

You could say the same for the stock market. The top 1% owns 38% of stock market wealth, and the 90-99 percentile owns 43%

That makes 82% of all stocks owned by the top 10%, it's definitely something for the rich to get richer!

...
Therefore, along with a 7900 series card as a display card, with 8GB of memory on the desktop, I was able to tune the 7850 with the following settings to get over 360khs on this desktop, and another 7850 (by itself) to run at 380khs, all without hardware errors:
--intensity 12 --gpu-threads 2 --gpu-engine 1050 --gpu-memclock 1200 --gpu-vddc 1.1500 --shaders 1024 --thread-concurrency 4096 --worksize 256   (dont just copy paste in case i mis-spelled something)...

Thank you for this! I was getting either errors, or very low hash rates. I tried a lot of different values but I didn't think to try 2 gpu threads! I just pasted the above settings right into cgminer (as you advised) and I'm now getting a constant 360k with no errors (yet)! Cheesy

I will definitely toy with it more, but I'm just happy to have it running.

Nice!

However, you can no longer get angry at people pointing their cell phone camera's at your butt, they're just trying to read the code! *wink*
