I installed 11.12 and went from about 412-414 MH/s per core down to 368 MH/s per core. I lost over 40 MH/s per core, or around 80 MH/s total on my 5970  But CPU usage is only 60%. Cool I guess. |

Will there be a merged-mining option for I0Coin when it hits block 160K?
|
|
|
|
|
Is Coinotron going to offer merged-mining for I0Coin? Block 160K is coming up really fast...
|
|
|
|
I don't think Bitcoin or Namecoin are really considered CPU block chains  |
|
|
|
|
Is there a list of pools which will offer merged-mining at I0Coin block 160K? Coinotron maybe? NE1 else?

OMG OMG OMG! I can't wait to get off work and try .12 out! Thanks for the heads-up! |

Also confirmed. However, I can no longer run a 256 worksize on my 5970's. Lost about 26mhash/sec per GPU. Pleh. Just can't win with these drivers... For the longest time I'd get the best hash rates with a 256 worksize on my 5970. Then for some reason (maybe I switched drivers, I don't remember) 128 gave me the best results. What miner version are you using? I'm using Phoenix 1.50. |

after catalyst 11.12 (no more 100% cpu), my hashrate increased to around 2.35 khash/s per thread. but still not near your 10-12 khash/s I call shenanigans. No more 100% CPU even with multiple GPUs? |

What's going on with i0coin? It's been stuck at the same block for the last 3 hours (according to Allchains anyway). Is it just an Allchains display error or something? Anybody know what the true current difficulty is? I'm at work so I can't czech.

Wait, so Ixcoin is forked now?

I have exactly three Tunisian friends, one who I used to be somewhat close with. I wonder if sending him a text saying I heard about this and congratulations, would be a little weird.
Maybe a brief "Sup fresh? It's our turn, baby!" would be more appropriate. |

Finally, a computer capable of running Crysis.

Looks like someone just added 100GH/s to i0C. Fork attempt maybe?

I'm not afraid of the detention camps popping up all over my country. After all, I'm not a criminal. I've got nothing to hide. If you are against them, then you are probably a criminal. *groan* The good ol' "I've got nothing to hide" argument. It's like arguing "I'm not African-American, so I have nothing against Jim Crow laws." |

FWIW, I've had nothing but good luck with all my Diamond cards. In fact they've been the best cards I've had out of all of them (MSI, HIS, Sapphire) in terms of longevity and overclocking. I OC'd my Diamond 5870 up to 1050MHz and ran it for half a year non-stop. When BF3 came out I played it with the same card with absolutely no artifacting or any other shenanigans.

Thanks Transisto. That looks very useful.
I have another question. Are there any special requirements in terms of a power supply for running the 5970?
FWIW I'm running a single 5970 @ 905/200/1.149v and getting about 824-828 MH/s out of it. This is with an AMD Athlon II 255 @ 3.5GHz (overclocked for gaming). According to my Kill-O-Watt meter, I'm drawing about 460-480W at the wall with this setup, so gauge your PSU needs accordingly. I have a Corsair AX1200 so no worries here, and I'd highly recommend this unit to accommodate for future growth. If not, then maybe an AX850. |

Question is, what will halving the reward do for I0Coin and for Bitcoin
In bitcoins case, mining will instantly become really unprofitable, will the relative scarcity drive up the price, will the network come to a screeching halt because miners turn off their rigs, halving difficulty
Most likely a combination of all of the above, exciting to see how Bitcoin and I0Coin will react to the first real change after the introduction of GPU mining
The only chain, that I'm aware of, which has experienced a reward reduction has been SolidCoin, and it happened through a code change, not through natural progression built into the system. But the effect was an almost immediate and sustained doubling in value from what I can remember. Actually the increased valuation effect happened even before the block reward reduction because people were preemptively pricing their coins ahead of the reduction, IIRC. So if SC is any indication of what effect a reduction in block reward has, then it might well be worth holding onto I0Cs for another few months. |

An exchange will probably come online after block 160K when merged mining activates. I was planning on selling a few hundred when an exchange opens up, but seeing as how the block reward halves in a couple months, it might be worth it to just hang on to them for now.
