Oh wow sounds like they're doing good work. My cousin's over there in Chicago. Can he join up?

You just saved me some money! I guess the saying 'If it sounds too good to be true, it probably is' applies.
Thank you, and great detective work.
Dont thank me, i'm just the president of the BTC608 club, it was the hard work and determination of our members that brought all this to light. i was just a volunteer to drive down there with a few of them. the real thanks goes out to the following people John Smart Dania Moretti Alexx Jankowski Tom Thompson & James McCain all from Madison Wisconsin. Can I have their addresses too? I'd like to send them a little something from my Ghanaian uncle.

No idea if these guys are legit but their BTC address has had no action, 0 transactions and 0btc :-( If were asking about legit sites - has anyone dealt with these guys http://www.xtrememiners.net/ ? xtreme deffo are scam see my sig this lot in op looks odd

looks like a duck
i've read that faq and about us some other site before, possibly in the scam list see my sig

vat's 20%. it's quite hard to escape it. maybe try claiming you're intending to re-export the box when you go home?

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=294197.msg4283576#msg4283576Black Arrow LTD:
Could we please have an engineering update on the progress of the Minion ASIC? Thank you for your time.
From BA: " Dear Customers, We have some updates: The Minion: We have our final specs for the Minion. Based on our library (we can only simulate the TT corner which is 0.85v @ 25C) and the power consumption is 0.6-0.65W/Ghash. We trust that underclocked and underpowered the Minion will achieve under 0.5W/ghash as promised. This is not as good as our first simulations which were based only on Front End but this is where we need to stop. The time does not allow us to continue our effort towards seeking a lower power consumption. We had to drop the frequency from 1.5Ghz to 1.0Ghz in order to achieve this efficiency. However we've increased the number of cores so the Minion will hash at the speed promised. We had met all the timings for 1.5Ghz but the efficiency was 0.8W/Ghash and this is not something we could have accepted. The minion driver: We have also published the minion driver and we're happy to announce that it is steadily mining into cgminer. We've made the driver open source: https://github.com/ckolivas/cgminer/blob/master/driver-minion.c Batch 1 closed: We have closed batch 1. All orders paid in 2014 will be shipped around 1st of May. "

yeah rudyo knows what hes talking about. also the fact they're working on s.o. elses setup even if its identical to yours doesnt mean anything. also did someone say xfx theyre crap. am sick and tired of help me ive got a 290 threads here and on litecointalk. do not do it
lol do you mean everyone complaining about those cards have XFX? no i mean 290s complaints any brand outnumber all other gpus! and ditto xfx any card. actually i dont have a clue and therell doubtless be some bright spark out there with an xfx 290 who claims 999khs but save yourself some aggro

No wait. I did this and got it wrong (exact same card). I am far less technically minded than you and most here, so suggest you wait for some differing opinions. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=293872.msg4118646#msg4118646I'll be working on this today Why are you undervolting? to get more hash? what are you hashing at now?what do you expect?

I have a question regarding Bitminter Client. I am currently mining with 2 Block Erupters having a total of about 660 MH/s. My Client has been running for 5 days now shoing up I've earned 00058592 BTC Coins (or are this blocks?!) In Bitminter login it is showing up that my total earnings are like this: Personal Assets Balance Unconfirmed Future Expected per block Bitcoins 0.00227229 - 0.00227229 0.00003750 Namecoins 0.00717448 - 0.00717448 0.00007501
I feel like there's some difference between my client earnings and those showing up here? Or is it because I missunderstand something between the two statistical numbers in client and my bitminter login? I also would be glad to know what exactly the shift feature ( https://bitminter.com/shifts) is meaning to me and my earnings. Do I have to share my earnings because I am earning "less" compared to other miners with better hardware?
By side... currently Bitminter is mining BTC and NMC which are both Sha256 based currencies. Wouldn't it make sense to cross-mine other Sha256 currencies as well even if they are not as successful as BTC/NMC yet? As far as I know BTC/NMC Mining works somehow without much more extra calculation efford... I had a look to this list showing up other SHA256 Crypto-Currencies... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_cryptocurrenciesfigure 00058592 will probably be number of shares accepted since you started client. shares are your own contribution as a proportion of all. client doesn't show btc earnings. merged mining with namecoin indeed takes no or v little more effort. not all sha256 coins can be merge mined with btc. the ones that can are useless/scams/painintheasss

AMT has been confirmed real? Cex.io/bitfury would be hard to[ ]do
you're right confirmed is a bit strong. my guess, they'll add hashrate. they use bitmine chips just eddicated guesses would be useful till more knowledgeable posters come along forgot the most important - the wasp project - sorry lads

|

also if you move this thread to alternative cryptocurrencies, or start a new one there, you might get much more sane replies...

Dont hate newegg hate AMD. Even the prices on Amazon have increased. I got XFX 290 for 399 now they are 499.. ie in 15 days
Ohhh, no, Newegg is bad for other reasons. spill?

I am running three workers as follows on BitMinter Client v1.4.3
Mac OSX Snow Leopard w/3 ASIC Block Erupter USB Miners Windows 7 Enterprise -32 bit w/2 ASIC Block Erupter USB Miners on an HP Z200 Workstation Windows 7 Professional -64 bit w/7 ASIC Block Erupter USB Miners and 2 x GeForce 9800GT graphics cards on GeForce R331.93 on an AlienWare Area 51 mini tower
While there do not appear to be any configurable items on the Mac, the GeForce 9800GT will allow me to modify these entries:
Work group size Work intervals
and enable/disable Manual vectors
The information icon gives minimal descriptions and I'm wondering if others have tweaked these settings for a performance gain. I just increased the Work group size of each GeForce to 256 and am watching its performance.
Regarding my Windows 7 boxes, I'm wondering if anyone has had success playing around with the comm port settings by increasing from the default speed of 9600. My hash rates seem to be fairly consistent, but if possible, I wish to reduce the Proofs of work rejected by the server. Or is that totally beyond my control?
All feedback is welcomed!
I reckon you'd be better off financially using your gpus to mine scrypt coins and convert to btc at hashco.ws see my sig. look at https://litecointalk.org/index.php/topic,7722.0.html, but set them up for hascows. now i think about it you'll need to run cudaminer for your nvidia cards. research round that litecoin setup would show you some ideas for intervals and vectors if you want to stay loyal to DrH. with your asics, there are threads on here somewhere about overclocking and com settings. you might need a fan

that's for amd cpus. yours is an intel. look further down the page...
is there no quark wiki or forum similar?
