621  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Trying to mine with Ubuntu - 4 cards work, two are "UNCLAIMED"? on: March 12, 2017, 08:49:00 PM
I should mention, the motherboard is a ASUS Z270A, has seven PCIe slots (so I'm not using one) and the two GPUs that aren't being addressed are on good working risers.

I went into the BIOS and changed all the PCIe connections to Gen2 to increase capacity, but no effect.


Gen2 is one step usually needed,
the second one needed (on my Supermicro boards) is:

"Above 4G Decoding"

you can try to find something similar in your BIOS and enable it

jk_14 with the crazy outdoors rig !!!  Congratulations and thanks to everyone for playing this silly contest, brought to you by cryptominingtalk.com and the referral/ad money it gets.  I might have more contests coming up for fun, let me know if you have any suggestions !!!

Peace,




Thank you Smiley


P.S.
I need to add one hint, if someone want to make some outdoor rig,
it's nice to preserve SLI pins at least with some adhesive tape or plastic cover
because some of pins may be dimmed after months

they have their own pool, but sometimes a wallet doesnt answer to a rpc call and in this case some shares could be sent to the other coin as "fallover".. generally its < 0.1%

You may have noticed the lbry invalid job ids during payouts... its a good sample if a coin is alone.

The other case is on connect.. if you are the first to mine a secondary coin, you get first the current "block" until a new job is ready. if you submit shares before you get the new block template... its counted and converted... I don't do exchanges, its taken from pool fees..



Great work!

and what is approx. wildkeccak hashrate for 1070?
624  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Perfect outdoor rig on: March 03, 2017, 10:34:46 PM
the current project wouldnt work for windy installations i suppose, rain would just be blown sideways inside the container
where i live the wind can blow rain at an almost 90° angle

during that more than half of year - there were many rainy, really windy days
that metal netting surface is just to catch a watter drops,
and doubled one by one in 1cm distance -  is just to catch most strong watter drops, which potentially goes beyond the first surface


as I wrote somewhere: after some time, I forgot my early thoughts about switching it off during a storm
625  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Perfect outdoor rig on: March 03, 2017, 10:27:03 PM

Hot air being lighter than cool air, it create under the table a pocket of hot air protecting your hardware from humidity & such,


that is exactly what I want to say... PSU is more sensitive for humidity than GPU's (e.g. my 750Ti were totally humidity resistant)
and PSU takes an air a bit warmed by GPUs, so the humidity is decreased there

What a awesome project!!

I was thinking about this but then I changed my mind because the birds and insects would harm the Rig.

because the way how air circulate under the table and some instalation gadgets

the best proof is that all of my PSU's still work fine,
after summer and winter true tests

Superb! What are the lowest temperatures your rig has experienced in the winter?
And what were the highest temperatures in summer?

I really like your design!


between -15 -20C degree in winter (fans sometimes stop for a while)
25-30 in summer (GPU about 70C and fans 50%)

632  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Perfect outdoor rig on: March 03, 2017, 08:31:27 AM

Ok, this rig passed a winter test perfectly, so it seems I may disclose it now...








there is nice contest here:
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1809782.msg18045600#msg18045600

I like it! how many insects did you end up slaughtering?

no insects at all, it seems they stay away from it
(in fact, my area is not insect intensive, mainly flies?)

you could also try to protect from insect by adding the metal netting from bottom
(that material is not really affecting cooling)
635  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: RIG CONTEST - Show me what you've got ! on: March 03, 2017, 05:21:28 AM

edit:  If a lot of people post their rigs, I may end the contest earlier than in one month.  I also might do 1st place, 2nd place and 3rd place prizes.  Or maybe Most original, Most functional, Most ghetto, etc.

most orginal, you say... Smiley

Ok, my outdoor rig passed the winter test perfectly, so it seems I may disclose it now...
(all weather condition proof, from -20 to +30 Celsius degree tested, no extra cooling needed)

636  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: excavator - Pascal algorithm - NVIDIA CUDA miner [1.0.0b] on: February 28, 2017, 10:55:22 AM
Is there a way to change the intensity ?

Change -cb to some value, experiment.



In near future.


how near? Smiley
637  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: KopiemTu 3.0 - ethash & equihash - NVIDIA USB linux distro on: February 28, 2017, 10:48:03 AM
Can someone point me to the repo for this?  Or build instructions to build from scratch?

If this is an open source project, I will contribute to it (beyond the six beers, I'll help with code, etc.)

But if it's closed source, I'm going to try and get going with ubuntu instead.

Primary reason for running linux is it is open source and thus more vetted.


all sources are included, check /opt/kopiemtu directory
638  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: What is best Linux Distro for NVIDIA rigs in 2017? on: February 26, 2017, 09:32:37 PM
ubuntu server 14.04

For some reason 16.04 server won't boot.  Just saw your message, trying 14.04.  I don't really need a GUI, as these machines will never have a display again, hopefully.

Thanks to you and @mirny!


try KopiemTu 3.0:

639  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Pools (Altcoins) / Re: ZCLASSIC Pool: https://pool.mn/zclassic 0.99% fee, miner notifs, vardiff etc on: February 26, 2017, 09:17:05 PM

something is wrong with that pool
not proper diff, no block for many days

fixed


10 days without single block...
everything is still OK with the pool?


now we can see - 5 blocks were discovered within those 10 days...
it's quite hard to mine on pool with such "fake history" Smiley
I hope that is fixed now...
640  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Linux: Reboot after Failed GPU's on: February 21, 2017, 03:12:06 AM

but since I'm not running sgminer as sudo, the program spits out a permissions error. 


run sgminer as root? Smiley
