Same here. UltraVNC works great though

That "any" is rubbish if you don't take into account Mh/$.

If you mean to say that ALL miners for sale today are too expensive, so too low Mh/$ for the current and future difficulty, that's a different issue.

With "never pre-order" I agree 100% though.

The NSA doesn't even care and would waste their time and resources targeting Bitcoin itself.

Bitcoin is good to help concealing one's small addictions (e.g. porn, gambling, pot - consuming is decriminalized where I live) from family, but only an idiot would use it for large scale criminal activity.

I obviously didn't take the OP seriously. That said, some advanced theories behind LOSSY compression are interesting. For example, AAC-HE, fractal compression in JPEG2000 or procedural generation of textures in games (remember the 96kb 3d game?).

It is to block spammers and abuse.

It's frustrating in the beginning, though.

I was expecting a blog littered with scammy CPA offers, but no, very clean!

Nice work, dude!  Smiley

OP, it may if you're willing to undervolt the cards and lower the core clocks, probably hex-editing the bios.

How to know?

Take a look at how many Amps the PSU provides in the 12V rail. Below only applies to single rail PSU's, I don't know how to balance when it has multiple rails.

For each card
1) Plug one in, undervolt, optimize hashrate.
2) In Gpu-Z, select the 2nd page and see the Vccd In value. See how many Amps it is getting from the 12V rail. Look out for peak demands and when do they happen. Start/stop cgminer a few times to see those peaks.

Plug 3 already cards and do step 2) again. See if the cards Amp demand peaks at the same time. If not, with 3 cards you can already extrapolate to 5. Add the amp values of those 3 cards together (or pick 3x the most consuming card value), multiply by 1.66 x 1.2 (for some extra safety). If this value is higher than what the PSU provides, don't risk it.

This KrugerCoin is a pain

Hashrate     74 Kh/s
Reject Rate    89.19 %   

otoh, I have a 6950 and a 7870 XT, one used and the other is a well known failure at scrypt.

I wonder if I'm having the same problem as Epeus, just at a smaller scale. If not, honestly don't know what to do. Your pool is by far the best in so many ways, but my weird setup has some trouble with it.

Damn, how did you guys here fall for this crap?

I actually know someone that knows what he is doing and plays with those programs into his advantage, but there's no higher risk than HYIP or pyramid schemes...

I don't intend to derail the thread, but when you guys talked about jail, you mean in the U.S., right?

For the love of God, stop mining MinCoin and HoboNickels

Excellent OP, thanks.

What's with the thread crapping??

I will bite, who are you, why should we trust you, and why should we buy from you.

P.S.
SSB has the USB's for .125BTC you are selling them for .20BTC
he's not selling for 0.2BTC, but for $20. That's 0.14 ~ 0.15 BTC

Consider using Cgwatcher to manage your mining software. Sometimes cgminer gets stuck when the pool goes down.

Guys, I went from about a 4% reject rate the last few days to over 22% today.  I like the pool, the ops are responsive and seem to be trying, but until you get all the bugs ironed out I'm off to something else.
That only matters if your setup is generating more than other miners, or the pool is generating more than other pools. If it has to do with the coin, then what's important is profitability after rejects+stales are taken into account. If a coin shows 800% profit but with 40% lost work, that is still better than another 400% "clean" coin.

As I said elsewhere, some coins can't handle tons of megahash thrown at them, others have built in defenses against opportunistic mining and the rejects will increase. That's a different matter altogether.

So, I'd not bother too much about an ugly cgminer display or bad stats, don't let them stop from mining here. The most important metric is obviously uBTC / minute for the ones that auto-sell.
