OMG WHY?
1. If I cashed out the BTC I made from MAX alone it would nearly cover the loan I received to purchase an S5. It still feels a bit like play money. 2. My career has been taking me further and further away from silicon, so just following your progress on cudaminer is gratifying. 3. You happened to be of assistance (however indirect) along my path to realizing that it is entirely appropriate for me to quit my cushy corporate job and bring my skill set to the world of cryptocurrencies. What's an S5 ?

You just opened a Pandora's Box ... Perhaps Nxt can actually be "mined", after all. I suppose that's possible but that would be stealing. (and that's wrong). I will say though that when I ran an api balance check and saw someone holding 975,000 NXT with a 4 character all lowercase password my mind melted. (They still have their money, obviously or I wouldn't be posting that here! ) -Will You are a very kind and genuine, but naive person.

My criticism is a bit more vast than nitpicking on a word of your post, heh... Just be careful with this kind of experimentalism. Good luck.

I have a better idea. It's called Bitcoin.
I think this will help Bitcoin by forcing cryptocoin adoption in all households of America. You don't see a problem with this?

In order to stop people from being scammed; promote the credibility of alt-cryptos; prevent the degradation of BTCTalk; and motivate people to really invest and trade cryptos, please join my effort and use some of your sig space to put a message like mine, a link or whatever you see fit. Thanks!

Well, reduce the clock speed of the card that becomes sick ...

That doesn't make much sense to me. Why would someone rent a rig at a loss? Are they suckers who want to try their hand at mining without the headaches and investment of buying a rig?
I'm curious about this because I've heard others mention renting out their rigs. Is it hard to set that up? I'm an altcoin miner with four 290X's on my rig. I guess I should look into it if renting out is more profitable.
It is an inexpensive way to learn and 0-day mine coins for speculation.

change the PCI-e frequency with Asus TurboV, slowly from 95 to 105 Mhz, 1 at a time. See if this influences hashrate. If TurboV doesn't allow it, you need to set values on the BIOS.
This change may help with the HW errors: --gpu-fan 70-90 --gpu-engine 1030 --gpu-memclock 1500

See what's the behaviour if you connect the GTX570 on the 4x slot and the Toxic on the 16x, regarding gaming and image stability
Go to the bios and disable all peripherals you don't need. Temporarily disable sound and even ethernet (if you have an wifi dongle). Maybe it allow you to alleviate issues with the southbridge/platform controller of the motherboard. Performance may tank on that 4x slot, because it doesn't offer 4x PCI-e directly, there's a busy chip in between the Intel CPU and the slot, just good enough for SATA, USB and other devices.
Could you post a link to your exact Motherboard model?

Don't mine on such an expensive high-end laptop, except a few minutes at time for experimenting and learning.

This looks pretty legit, maybe it really is Satoshi.
Afterall, how can we trust a cryptocoin when the anonymous creator who created it under his actual name is known? Huh?

To your point about this being a "virtually free service"....BS. 2% is *double* the pool standard for profit. The fact that this *seems* low to you is irrelevant. You forget trading alts for BTC and exchange fees.

Those 128A are at 1.12V, so the value is fine. You should undervolt though and make sure the fan runs at decent RPM while mining, regardless of the core temperature shown. Unfortunately there are no VRAM sensors there. Some cards show memory voltage. Maybe the RAM chips are slower than what they were programmed for in the Bios or one is actually defective, I have no idea

Lower the video memory clock.
Could you post another HwInfo screenshot, showing the important sensors, while mining?

is realy 4x 280X cards uses only 1120W, seems not very realistic. As my calculations show, these nvidia cards are 2x times more efficient thant amd curently.
Could you present your calculations?
