If you guys have malware on your PC (e.g. a RAT or keylogger), all that site related security is worthless.

I blew a "600"  W PSU with a single card. A Corsair 650W handles 2 cards without issues. At least yours shuts down without damage. So far... |

Pool operators that cater for newbie miners (like me still) or who loves statistics and cute websites do otherwise. Meanwhile they destroy coins, the value and the mining scene. They offer profits to someone else's trading bots, instead of to miners. The ones that are into such mining scene for more than a few weeks, get this crystal clear.
Besides what impacts profit, I don't want anything. Basically what is required for having:
- Nearby stable low latency pool
- No connection loss on coin switching
- Low rate of rejects/orphans/discarded
- Good choice of coin
- Very good trading bot/algo
Everything else is a waste of your time and effort. For me, you don't even need a website.
Edit: if you want to offer transparency, you can show on the website the coins you mined in the past, no need to show what you're mining NOW.
We are working hard on reaching all the goals you mention here. About not letting people know what we are mining, I don't know if I fully agree, but I do think you have a valid point and we will consider it. Thank you for your feedback. Sorry if I sounded harsh or a jerk. Very glad you consider my view.  |

I have a rig currently with a 7970 and 2 R9-270, soon with 2 more cards. Of different brands.
I have no problems configuring separately, for scrypt. I had a few issues mining Vertcoin, sub-optimal performance either on the 7970 or the R9-270's.
Install Catalyst 13.12
You do have a point. It can be convenient to, for example, have "3 and a half cards" on that 1 KW PSU ...

Oh, the irony! |

Provide a link for "...the successor of the 7990, well, that will be at twice the price of a 290 or even more, so with the same Kh / $"
Ya dude, speculation. But... those who don't learn from history... What isn't speculation is that GDDR6 is next up and any wise person would factor that into planning.
For the love of God, enough of this nonsense! Answer the question: do you have a link about AMD planning a 2 Mh/s card, or is it your view regarding the potential of GDDR6 or something else? If you have a link, share it, ffs! |

You misunderstand ...
I know very well that GDDR6 is coming. I also don't need you to google stuff for me or educate me on message boards. What I asked and would like to see is evidence that a card allowing 2 Mh/s, with a desirable or advantageous price, will be released. Where's the link with such evidence? You claimed 2 Mh/s projected. Projected by who? Or is it just speculation at this time?
If you mean the successor of the 7990, well, that will be at twice the price of a 290 or even more, so with the same Kh / $

Cryptsy is burdened by huge volume of tiny trades, transfers from mining pools and yes, lots of bots. You should know this by now, and know better than to see it as an exchange for your trades and speculation. It is what it is...
Then, it's often ridiculous to blame them for your coins not getting to your wallet, when what makes transfers move forward, are the miners. If nobody mines your most beloved shitcoin, of course it can take hours!
In fact, I'm glad you "massive traders" hate it. This is one of the many exchanges where middlecoin, hashco.ws and similar, sell the scrypt coins and the less "massive traders" are there and the slower Cryptsy is, the harder it is to manipulate the prices down.

GDDR6 by EOY and projected 2 Mh/s on these cards as a starting point.
Link? |

GPU mining will go obsolete for scrypt currencies (LTC, doge, etc) the same way it did for sha-256 (Bitcoin). People will design and manufacture hardware that is meant to do nothing else, and do it quickly, and the difficulties on the altcoins will spike.
There are good odds that it will happen within a year. It appears that everyone who has pre-orders for this hardware are scams, but eventually someone will come along. There's just too much money at play for it to get ignored.
Maybe then there will be a new chain of alt-alt coins with a new algorithm that again can only be done on a CPU. Then someone will figure out how to do it on a GPU, then someone will come out with new hardware for it.
Not really. While ASICs for Bitcoin/SHA2 offer 10x (BFL Japaleno) to 200x (BlackArrow Prospero X1) the hash speed of a GPU for equivalent price, the announced scrypt ASICs cannot even surpass GPUs, per device or in Kh/s / $. But but, lower power consumption of the scrypt ASICs, bla bla... Resale value of GPUs and the rest of the rig, and undervolting. Your gpus can work at 0.9 - 0.95V if or when the priority is low power consumption |

OP, one of the issues is that DigitalOcean is crap for the price. You see it advertised on guides because one gets $10 on the referral link. Instead, signup for Amazon EC2 and take a look at spot instance prices around the world.
Forget about scrypt coins on CPUs, though. It's worthless. Memorycoin, protoshares, primecoin and others are ok.
Then, a GPU rig isn't uber-expensive. $200 for MB, CPU and RAM. The PCI-e risers cost $20 each. Then there are 2 interesting cards, R9-270 and R9-280x. Finally, the PSU(s) you need depend on the cards you choose. A good quality 1050W $200 PSU can handle for example 3 R9-270 and 2 280x after the cards being undervolted, but 2 PSUs start to become appealing in this situation and you can go 5 or 6 280x
With well chosen components and a bit of luck, it pays itself in 2 to 3 months, not speaking of some cash you recover when you sell them on the used market

Check with Gpu-z, the PCI-e speed and version at which GPU0 is running. PCI-e v3.0 is recent.
Then, the motherboard may be overvolting the PCI-e slot, considering the competition there is on OC friendly motherboards.
Then see if you can change PCI-e frequency and latency on the Bios or with tweaking software. Disable sound, firewire and whatever else not required for mining.
What are your thread-concurrency settings? Some will give HW errors in the very beginning as you mention.

See if the EVGA Supernova 1300W or Seasonic X 1250W is more affordable. Either way, check for 1 point reviews on Newegg and Amazon
1 point reviews for the corsair? I can't find them? Thanks for the tips on the others I'll see what prices I can find. The Corsair seems even worse. Lots of defective units |
