1  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Help setting up monitors for Mining at home on: November 04, 2018, 11:41:38 AM
Hey guys, I was mining for a year now, my rigs are placed at a store room in my home. Now Im renovating my home and building a separate room for Mining devices. My mining rigs carry a monitor on its side where I see the stats and for config and others I had to connect a keyboard and mouse everytime. [One keyboard, Mouse and Monitor] Had to switch between rigs which is a pain. Now that Im getting things in one place, suggest me ideas where I can use one keyboard, mouse and monitor to use across devices, or 2 monitors with same keyboard and mouse. I have heard about KVM switches but doesnt know about the reliability. Using mouser app in 2 pcs, seems good but totally a waste when there is no internet. Suggest me something guys.

PS: Im thinking something like this - Rigs in the South side of the room and the master control in the North/East side where I do all the stuffs.

3  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / [ATTENTION] CVP 13 - Most Powerful FPGA ever on: August 31, 2018, 06:20:14 AM
There is a new FPGA in town. CVP 13 - A bittware product currently pre sale on mineority. The Board is powered by Xilinx Virtex Ultrascale+ VU13P 2E, and the rest is manufactured by Bittware. CVP 13 is rumored to be 50% faster than BCU1525, and ROI must be twice as faster than the former. The Price of one CVP 13 is $5750 exclusive of Shipping and taxes. BCU1525 is yet to be delivered and there is no single piece available anywhere for public, and it is claimed to be more powerful than VCU1525., CVP 13 that comes at 1.5x pricier, who have more bucks to try on these?

4  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Nvidia announces GeForce RTX 2080 on: August 15, 2018, 03:23:35 AM
Its official finally. Only the name could differ. An official video suggests the card to be much powerful than the 1080ti. Can we expect a solid hashrate for mining? lot of hidden details in the video. ANN on Aug 20. Might be interesting.
5  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Marketplace (Altcoins) / ASIC Miners India Import Discussion on: August 06, 2018, 07:23:59 AM
There had been lots of hassles in the Indian customs regarding this ASIC miners import from China. Its been a while, but how is the condition right now? Is it easy to import now? talked to FEDEX they said nothing about problems, just acknowledged that they could do it with ease. If someone have done it recently, please share your experience. Let the community hear about it.
6  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Good time to buy GPUs? on: July 20, 2018, 02:43:24 AM
Been mining for almost 1.5 years now. As time goes, so is my GPU count. Built 2 nvidia powered rigs, up and running smoothly. BTC prices are so unpredictable, and so are the altcoin prices which are almost a reflection of what BTC has become today. nvidia might launch new gpus anytime sooner or may be longer than expected. My doubt is that, once a new range of gpus are launched, the older gpus will be out of circulation, right? Well in that case older gpus will not be available then. And for the new gpus, the price will never look similar to the older ones. So, is it really the right time to buy gpus which is available for cheaper price [not so much] in my city? [provided BTC will not suffer much in the coming months] or should I choose not to buy now?
7  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Suprnova finding blocks slower than ever? on: April 25, 2018, 02:29:34 AM
I dont know if its just me or the entire mining community. For the past week, I tried mining many currencies from suprnova, [Of course they have a huge hashrate] yet couldnt get what I thought or what WTM estimated! When I look through, blocks are rare to be found on suprnova, whereas pools with minimal hashrate could find considerably. Why is that? When inquired on BTG discord, dev said it is because of difficulty adjustment, and it will pass over time. Is it real?
8  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Any chance market bounce back to where it was on: March 26, 2018, 06:13:03 AM
For 2 months, market is not consistent. In the past, I have seen worse but the market bounced back well. The current scenario is so weird for me. Almost all the currencies, I have been holding has fallen to where it was when I bought. Can the market ever be back? Im a part time miner by the way.
9  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Is regulating Crypto killing the market? on: January 23, 2018, 01:29:26 PM
We re seeing a lot of things about cryptocurrencies in our daily news. Many countries are trying to regulate it by imposing restrictions. Does that mean the good old days have gone? Huge pump after the arrival of a new coin? HODL to gain 1000% or so? All these things have gone? The market is very dull, we couldnt even see a solid jump these days. So, is this the start of the end of crypto? Post your ideas.
10  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Electroneum [ETN] Holders, What is your take? on: January 17, 2018, 03:27:54 PM
ETN - the coin that was speculated to make much noise suffered much with this drop. Coin almost back to where it started. Guys how are your doing with the holding?
11  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Forget the drop, why isn't difficulty change at all? on: January 17, 2018, 02:30:35 PM
May be a silly question. All the coins have dropped substantially, but why isn't the mining difficulty change much? Yeah, the miners are about millions in numbers, but price change would have made them to switch over to a different coin or so, which should have reduced the hashing power per coin. The difficulty in fact has sky rocketed for some coins in the past 2 days. Somebody please help me understand.
12  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / GPU causes system freeze on: January 09, 2018, 11:31:17 AM
My rigs are running well for days but this error occurred earlier today which I have no idea about. My rig has 5x1060 and 2x1070 One of my 1060 freezes my PC when I start the miner. If I remove that GPU things are back to normal. Although I found the culprit still don't know how to solve this. GPU is not dead it works but causes freezing when under load. Suggestions please
13  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Asus GPU Tweak II vs MSI Afterburner on: January 02, 2018, 08:28:17 AM
I was using Afterburner for a long time with no issues at all. When I switched to Equihash algo, it wasnt stable so switched to GPU tweak II, it worked like a charm. Then I switched to GPU tweak II in all my rigs. All of a sudden, when everything seems normal GPU tweak loaded with no saved profiles or settings. It just opened with setting and profile from the installation. I had to create new profiles for OC settings then. It is happening quite frequently now. What might be the issue? I have uninstalled Afterburner with profiles. Suggestions pls.
14  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Hashrate not stable in Gtx 1070 on: December 04, 2017, 09:51:07 AM
I dont know what's causing the problem. My first rig, 5x1060, 2x1070 running almost 23 hours a day with zero fluctuation in hashrate. Reg, 1070 hashrate is stable at 32.3 all the time. I set up my second rig recently and I used the same OC settings as the first one with 7x1070. Unfortunately the hashrate is drastically changing from 18 to 32, no matter how lower the OC settings are. Checked the PSU, they are brand new, 1xHX1200 1xRM1000X. First rig is running on 1xRM1000X 1x850X. Temp are almost same, infact the later rig is provided an exhaust fan nearby. What could be the problem?

My specs

8GB RAM
Win10[1709]

15  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Hold ETH until POS? on: November 27, 2017, 09:55:26 AM
Help me clarify this guys. Once POS happens, no more mining ETH. Then, is it good to sell the ETH, I have mined so far or hold until POS?
16  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / One GPU has low hashrate in EWBF CUDA Miner on: November 21, 2017, 11:32:02 AM
One of my 1070s has considerably low hash rate when running on EWBF Cuda miner  for equihash. All the other GPUs are at their max. This one GPU seems to be malfunctioning.

On Claymore, (1070s)

GPU#0 - 32.3
GPU#1 - 32.3

On EWBF CUDA miner,

GPU#0 - 290 to 320
GPU#1 - 400 to 420

Same OC settings though. What did I miss? All my GPUs and risers are powered on individually. Any ideas?
17  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / GPU Random Crashing and Overclocking fails on: November 19, 2017, 03:49:41 AM
Hi guys. I have a mining rig [5x1060 2x1070] up and running for sometime. My total hashrate is around 183.2 MH/S. For Overclocking I use MSI Afterburner 4.4.0. I have this weird problem.

- Anyone GPU crashes randomly [Not quite often]

- Overclocking fails for one or two GPUs

When 1 GPU crashes, the rig restarts and run with the remaining GPUs. I had to manually restart the PC to get it working again. First I thought it might be the risers but even after replacing the risers, getting this problem yet again. The second problem is frequently killing me now. From my observation it happens at night mostly. My rig has 5 numbers of 120mm cooling fan which exhausts the heat out of my rig. The room where I keep my rig, has no proper windows, 2 exit doors. In the morning I keep the doors open for air circulation, but in the night I have to close one door which heads to my backyard [Couldn't keep this open all night]. A lot of time I sensed a huge heat surge in the room in the night. Will that might be the problem? No fresh air being pumped in cause the OC to fail? Well, these are my assumptions, please tell me your suggestions guys.

Thanks in advance.
18  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Bitcoin Gold Core Wallet not syncing on: November 13, 2017, 08:27:12 AM
Just downloaded the BTG Core wallet from their website. When I open, I get this warning message that the core wallet needs synchronizing. As of now, nothing happened. It is still connecting to peers. How to use this wallet for mining?
19  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Best altcoins to buy now for future on: October 27, 2017, 01:50:45 AM
I think Im pretty late for the ETH party. And ripple too bounced about 100%, missed that too. Is there any altcoin that is yet to born or just born, has a great potential as ETH or XRP? Your ideas?
20  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / What's your take on Electroneum? Is it a another Bitcoin in the making? on: October 15, 2017, 11:23:48 AM
Electroneum - The newest member to be added to the family. Does all the things happening around it is positive or just hoax? Post your suggestions.
