I forgot to mention, I totally understood what you were getting at, and since I’m not mining Bitcoin or using an ASCI, I’ll need to post in the other forum and I’ll just provide a link to this post here incase anyone needs to see it,


Thank you for the response!!

Hey,

Thank you both for the response. I should answer a few things that I never answered:

1. I should have said this in my first message, and I totally forgot. Iam not mining Bitcoin. I have mined and I’m currently mining either Bitcoin Gold, Ethereum Classic or Monero.

2. Iam not using an ASIC. I’m using just a personal GPU. What I want to achieve is simple…I’m just mining for fun, it is just something that I have been doing for quite sometime. To address your concern about being “10 years to late to mining”, that is possible I only started mining just a little bit after mining became a thing, so I might not know what I’m doing.

3. I do not really have any, “achievement goal” that I’m pursuing, I mine for fun, and the little bit of extra income that is made > at some point during the year I’ll login to my different wallets and convert everything to LiteCoin or Doge or Ethereum and exchange it for cash > then transfer it into the girlfriend and I’s joint account

But the reason for my question was to see if anyone knew why mine (or anyones) mining software would put out a huge amount of Kilohashes at night then just go back down to putting out 8-10 during the day (PST, and “per day” meaning between the hours of about 7am and 130pm, sorry I didn’t specify that in my last message, sorry.

Oh and as far as posting in “alt-coins”, well I wanted to do that initially but someone that I was chatting to mentioned that, my topic should go in the genera discussion forum. Next time I’ll post something like this, there.

Thank you again,
Jeff

Here is a question for you brilliant people out there:

1. How come I can’t get my mining software to put out more than 8-10 kilohashes?

2. BUT I let my miner go over night and woke up to check on it during the night and it was putting out like 350 kilohashes.

By the morning it was down to about 6 kilohashes again and I tried this for the last 3 nights.

Anyway, what could be the cause of this? I have my OC all fine tuned, and I didn’t do anything special to any setting or replace the processor or anything

Why the huge jump in kilohashes, unless it was a pool thing, maybe a ton more people connected to the pool? Anyway - if the computer can put out that much, I may have a use for it to mine something

Anyways I wanted to ask what are your thoughts, if anyone knows?

Hello,

I was told to post an issue in the 'General Discussion' forum, so here it is...Iam having a fairly small issue - that Ive just never experienced before, and I was hoping one of you might have an idea. Ive used this GPU to mine XMR a month or two ago, and everything was fine. I just tried launching XMRig - and it seems to be stuck on the very last line that you see on the image there, which says,
"allocated 2336 MB (2080+256) huge pages 100% 1168/1168 + JIT (1ms)"

I have seen that line before, but the client always - just starts mining away after that for some reason now - it just wont move past that, its stuck right there.

I have:
1. Changed Pool
2. Changed Mining Clients
3. Restarted

and a few other things, but I was just curious if anyone might know why this is suddenly happening?

Thank you,
J

Hopefully this is the correct way to get an answer.

I’m mining XMR at Mining Pool Hub Pool, and I have no complaints what so ever, actually not even much of a question. But I have my payment threshold to payout around 0.0525 but after 3 days of mining the XMR Payout Estimate never goes over 0.00019000, then it actually goes down to the .00018s, then goes back up to the 00019s then back down.

I was just wondering why that is? I’ve mined XMR several times in the past and never had this issue and I was perhaps just wondering if it was something maybe someone else might be noticing to?

Anyway, that’s my only question

Thanks!
