1  Economy / Computer hardware / Antminer D3's - with power supply. Located in EU on: May 21, 2018, 08:43:47 PM
We have 30 Antminer D3 with power supply - brand new and never used.
Our host never installed power for our new machines and never upgraded the cooling - so we have some machines extra.

Anyone interested ? VAT, Customs ect have been paid for the EU.

We ship anywhere Smiley
2  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / simplemining - How to set up my cards? Feel like a noob - ubuntu noob in fact on: January 31, 2018, 10:12:04 PM
Hi Guys

So my windows keeps crashing so I went looking for an OS - so I didnt have to go though the hell of reinstalling out friend " mr blue screen ".
not a fan of win 10!

Simplemining is simple - until i wanted to get my 6x1070 rig up in speed again - out of the box its 1700 sols/s on zec - not impressive!

Downloaded putty - logged in and then....

What is the command to be able to set Clock, power limit and memory?


Really hope some can help another miner out - feel lost Smiley
Well I am an Ubunto n00b - never really played around with any linux system. Please help Smiley
3  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Scrypt: What coin is best to mine these days ? on: August 23, 2017, 09:27:58 AM
I have been on Fastcoin for a while, but as it reached its halving, it's not that fun anymore! Smiley

So - what would be fun to move to?
I bet there is other coins not covered by the mining calculators, that would give a decent profit Smiley
4  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Canīt find the sweet spot with my GPU - Help wanted: evga 1070 SC Black edition on: August 11, 2017, 06:09:29 AM
Hi everyone.

I recently got my first rig up and running, but i'm having problems finding the sweet spot for good hashing rates.
Is there anyone who can give a quick glance and take a look ?

This is my typical hashing rate for zcash:
EVGA GTX 1070 SC Black Edition, Micron mem.
Zec Miner 0.3.4b

GPU0: 398 sol/s, temp 62C
GPU1: 409 sol/s, temp 53 C
GPU2: 402 sol/s, temp 59 C
GPU3: 409 sol/s, temp 53 C
GPU4: 411 sol/s, temp 57C
GPU5: 339 sol/s, temp 61 C

In afterburner my settings are:

Power: 73%, Core: +114 and Mem +334

The system:

Z170A gaming pro carbon, 8 gb ram, 120 gb ssd.
Cosair HX1000 that powers MB, CPU and GPU0,GPU1,GPU2 & GPU3
Cosair VS 550 that powers GPU4 & GPU5

My hashing rate is lower than expected and I would love to get it up, to a point where payback period is less than a year Wink

Is there anyone out there who can help me ?
What timings ? What to do ? what to look for ?

Any help would be very appreciated
5  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / A pool for a better world - would you mine there? on: July 17, 2017, 01:43:04 PM
Hi All

Miners unite or miners don't care?

I was talking to a fellow miner of mine and we were talking about how happy we are, that we are only getting power from wind power.
That way we make a bit of money and add too much of a footprint on our world.

As we have our own mining pool together with a few friends, we started talking about possibilities:

What if developed our pool more, made it open to everyone and used the mining pool fee to fund projects that are designed to combat the situation the world is in?
Would miners unite or do they not care?

In my end, I would prefer a pool had a mission, other than getting the people behind rich - But I'm probably not everyone:
In my spare time I'm currently working on a system to keep algae alive in a container that can be placed out in the public ( you know: heat, cold, weather, maintenance etc is a difficult problem ) - those critters eat 200x more co2 than a tree compared to biomass and I would love to make Copenhagen co2 neutral.

All miners - what do you think?  Smiley

If there is positive feedback, I'll contact my developer and ask him to start working on a bigger setup  Cheesy



6  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Designing SCRYPT miner hardware: and I am not a tech guy on: May 10, 2017, 10:36:10 AM
This is going to be fun - and by fun I mean, I'm getting a hell of a lot of gray hair.

The story so far:

I have been trading in cryptocurrencies for a while and have been mining a bit from home.
My very good friend has never been trading, but want to and was really keen on mining.


As he has money to invest, he sat me down one day and said: Should we buy a lot of miners or should we produce the hardware and then assemble ourselves?

I pondered over this question for a while, until I was told that we should try and produce our own.
We have in our network engineers, who are working on circuit board design and such, so doing the design of the board is ( for once ) not the hard part.

What is our aim then?
Well its two fold:

1: produce a scrypt miner ( as the first one ) with a hashing power of 500-700 mh/s and only about 800 watts, for a price that is not 5000 euros, but something people can pay.
2: Getting a new miner to market, that is assembled in Europe with all the good things that comes with that.

So where are we right now?

Trying to identify the chip to be used. Have contact to a few places, but so far the A2 chip might the one.
Perhaps anyone here know better?

What we are looking at, is to make is like the blades out there.
To have a computer recognize it as a piece of hardware, compared to having a standalone system, makes it a bit easier.

But there is a long way to go, but lucky for us, there is people on board who know a lot more than I do about the technical standpoint and I'm really looking forward to the next weeks of progress.
