20 blocks in one day, very nice...

You have the right idea, it makes the income from the pool much more stable, though it does involve higher risk. The major upside from this is that the pool is 100% hopper safe and we don't have to worry about any body hopping in just before the block is solved. As a gamer I still use bitminter for two reasons:

1. The miners simplicity and efficiency are unrivaled. Seriously, nothing comes close.
2. The high risk, high gain has benefited me very well over the past year leaving me, on average, with higher profit over time.


For a third reason, Dr. Haribo, the owner and operator, is simply the best. He is constantly working towards a better Bitminter for us and charger nothing in return. Over the past year I've watched this pool grow and because of Dr. Haribo's willingness to listen to users and his skill, the pool has simply become the best out there for most miners.


With all of that said, if you can only mine for a few hours a day then a PPS pool might be better for short term profits.

DrHaribo, have you noticed the upswing in namecoins yet? Over at BTC-E the selling for .008-.0088 BTC, around $1.17 each namecoin. That's pretty impressive, more importantly, profitable.

First the main reason I'm here, MSI Afterburner has released beta 3.0 which add a plethora of features and fixes. The best of which is a fix for the screen tearing cause by using Afterburner with AMD drivers, finally.


Next, the easiest, quickest, and cheapest way to get you BTC converted to your curenct of choice is through Bitpay.com it IS the paypal of bitcoins.

I have 2 7970's and get between 1.2 and 1.3, so you're good. I'm getting a new case, the gorgeous Azza 9000, and may be adding a third. We shall wait and see.


::EDIT::

OR I may just wait I little longer for this -_- They need to stop teasing me!!

So we get a huge jump in speed and we are hit with 3 stales in one day... Something seems off with this. Anybody have any idea?

Not worth running on that machine, you'll pay more in electricity than you'll see virtually no return. Refer to my post above on the previos page already explaining what you need.

Didn't realize we hit that already, looking it up I see it was the 25th... That kind of sucks, at least short term.

Not sure what's going on, but I'm getting paid a lot less than normal this last week. I've been getting .05-.06 btc every block but now I'm lucky to get .02 or even .01 every block. Normally I get around .7-1 btc in a day and I'm not even getting .3 on most days. Has something changed that I missed?

Long story short, just don't mine with Nvidia GPUs, not worth it in the least. If you are going with GPU based mining stick with AMD, most would recommend at least a 5850 to make it at least break even with your increased electricity bill. An AMD equivalent to the 210, while yielding much faster results, still isn't enough. You typically want at least 300-350 Mhps to see any real outcome.

I Still can't post in the main forums yet so I will ask here, hopefully you guys don't mind since one of yall can make some money. I'm would like this prgrogram which costs $5 USD and am offering .77 BTC for it, which is about 8.10 USD. PM if you would be willing to make that trade. Mods feel free to delete this if you like, I just have no where to put this.

With me making so much from this pool I wish there were more easy ways to use my Bitcoins. I want to buy food with it on a whimsy or something.. Guess I have to wait for BitInstant to finish making their debit cards.

I had the same issue once, I just set the bitminter client to performance mode and it cleared it up for me.

Woot... I'm finally above 2Ghps spread between two rigs. One of them is just a bit warm though. May eventually add some airflow.

Disabled AVG and followed your tip but mine is still stuck like RndmNumGenerator.  This is on a clean install of windows, I have no issues with my other machine and the client.

::SOLVED::

Solved it myself, I had to completely uninstall AVG in order for it to work.

ok...... then 51 -_-

I also use this for gaming, so I'm just going to leave it as is.

Wow, can get up to 600 on my 5970 with no overclock. Within my first 24 hours I've mined a whole bitcoin, averaging 540-600MH/s... Very impressed with this pool and software.

I have, but for some reason anytime I overclock it becomes unstable and freezes leading to me uninstalling/re-installing CCC and drivers. I have a feeling that it's because the card isn't overclocking on system boot, only when CCC is opened, so I'm going from the base clock and making a jump and the video card crashes.

I do have a bit of experience in oc/ing (my 3930k is running @ 4.65 with a top temp of 72c under stress, and that's with low end ram) and this one has me baffled, would love some help.

Also, sorry about the late reply and thank you for being so responsive. I'm begging to like the mining community, it's a fresh take from most I've encountered.

Also, Deafboy.. Your signature link seems broken.
