721  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: [SATIRE] How to design a CoinChoose-constantly-profitable coin? on: June 12, 2013, 06:43:57 AM
You could have a coin that has a high chance at a higher block reward. 60% chance you get 100, 40% chance you get 10. If coinchoose lists block reward as 100, jackpot, the average reward is only 64, making it look more profitable than it is. The issue would be if the block reward was listed as the smallest reward of 10, like it does for LuckyCoin. But LuckyCoin's bonus blocks are only 6%, not the majority.

They're almost exactly the same, aside from exclusive games and side fees like Online Play. I'll probably be passing on this generation and just build a Steam box, at least until the initial price drops dramatically.
723  Bitcoin / Mining software (miners) / Re: Should cgminer need different settings for different coins of same algorythm? on: June 12, 2013, 12:23:04 AM
That's right, generally. Some different settings might be needed for brand new coins in Orphan City mode (like Expiry 1, Queue 0, Scantime 1), but past that point all settings should be the same. If you have -I 12 --thread-concurrency 8192 for one scrypt coin, you'll have -I 12 for --thread-concurrency for any other scrypt coin.
Only thing that changes and MIGHT cause isssues would be difficulty with the coin/pool. Nothing that should crash the card, though, just maybe have extra rejects.

Alternatively, you can set them individually with a conf file.
Example (don't use these settings obviously, but change them):
Code:
{
"pools" : [
{
"url" : "http://www.ulr.com:port",
"user" : "user",
"pass" : "pass"
}
],

"intensity" : "13, 17",
"gpu-engine" : "0-800, 0-850",
"gpu-thread" : "2, 2",
"scrypt" : true,
"api-listen" : true,
"shaders" : "800, 960",
"thread-concurrency" : "1600, 2400",
"lookup-gap" : "2, 2"
}

And start cgminer from that config:
Code:
cgminer --config /config/path/config.conf

Wrong address? Litecoin has an L at the beginning of all addresses.

Yes, we should get connected. And organize. And discuss. And speak our minds.
What method should we use....
How about a forum?
Wait....

High thread concurrency would do it.
Delete *.bin files and try something low like:
Quote
-w 256 --thread-concurrency 4096 -I 12
That's my basic desktop usage 7850 settings, 7870 would handle it fine if the card is working fine.
7870's have 1280 shaders as well, but you already tried without that flag.

Yes. You can run as many daemons as you want/can handle

Click search. There's already a million threads about this. And also a million alternatives as it is.

I love the Bitcoin concept.  Which is the best way to invest in the currency?

Is Bitcoin mining a profitable venture?

What about Litecoin?
1. Opinionated. Someone else will tell you.
2 and 3. http://www.coinish.com/calc/ and http://www.coinwarz.com/cryptocurrency to see how profitable (or not) mining is.

Thanks for all you input. OK This is the last Newie question.

Are you running Windows 7 or something else. on your mining rigs.

de704
You'll get the same hashrate on Windows 7 or a Linux distro. I have one of each, they both do fine once you set drivers up.
735  Bitcoin / Wallet software / Re: I want a client that... on: June 11, 2013, 06:29:02 AM
I highly doubt it...
You could in theory make a bat file that will run the backup wallet command, throw the resulting file into something like a truecrypt container, and move it to a dropbox/btsync/WhateverServiceYouUse folder. All that would be fairly easy. The thumbprint part is a bit ... much/difficult.

I like the concept. The hash per dollar is painful, though.
738  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Missing right khash power will tip for help on: June 11, 2013, 06:15:14 AM
Just sounds like the card got downclocked externally. Did you try hardcoding the clocks into the cgminer bat?
i.e.
Quote
--gpu-engine 1080 --gpu-memclock 1500
