it was plugged in tightly
to be clear, im not talking about molex connector but 6/8 pin pcie, even my standard desktop should handle a 280x (8pin + 6pin) just fine, not sure what the problem was
was the pcie cable used on a lot of different gear? was it unplugged and replugged into different jacks. pcie plugs have very short lifespans when plugged and unplugged. a pcie cable should not be plugged and unplugged 30 times in its life span!!! most pcie cables are rated between 10-20 plug an unplug cycles. Seems silly that 15 times can ruin a cable but it is true. that is something new to me. I have plugged PCIE cables many times when I have to adjust/test the rigs. the connector which got burned got plugged in only once, the connector which didnt get burned (gpu side) was plugged in 2 times |

It is possible if dual mining heavily, I have done it with 290. You need to use separate pcie cables or cable cooling if you are going to max it.
strange though that my other system survived just fine for 3 yrs, i wasnt dual mining as well |

Hi,
i just noticed a failed card (280x) wasnt dead but rather the PCIe to PSU connector was burned and i wasnt able to pull it out, the plastic has molten with the socket it seems.
the PSU in question is a Enermax 1000W ECO, this PCIe Connector was attached solely to that 280x, my question is: how is this possible? the card doesnt draw that much power and the cables seemed thick enough to handle a 280x
Those r9 cards draws alot of wattage i wouldn't suggest using powered raisers with them unless it's a high quality one , by the way i have seen so many cases like yours and all are r9 3xx,2xx with molten sockets those gpus are power beasts i have run my 290x off another enermax gold rated psu for over 3 years and it never broke/melted, seems to be psu build quality? or just cable quality? |

the changes in 2.0 look great, i dont really own any nvidia cards anymore, but keep up the good work!

now that its clear that also the naples server chips will not offer 256bit avx it will be interesting to see how they perform in compute intensive algos which greatly benefit from avx2

how does one stake with the wallet and coins inside?
getstakinginfo returns enabled: true, but staking:false
and i dont see any GUI option to stake some/all coins
anyone?
I think stake take fee from transaction... Proof of Stake:
- NO REWARD, ONLY TRANSACTION FEES
- A Stake will occur ONLY IF there is a transaction in the mempool that is paying the fee it doesnt tell how to stake, it only tells which rewards you get, and which you dont Of course it does. You must have some OC in your wallet and wallet unlocked for staking and if there are no transaction fees in the mempool a stake will not occur. If there are then you are competing with other stakers to claim those fees and mine/stake a PoS block. Hard to understand as i havent seen a crypto like that ever and this feature is actually one of the 2 reasons why i decided to watch this coin/thread and participate in the first place. I dont think this KimBasinger character cares about this, this is clearly a satoshi nakamoto style release by someone with high coding skills that meet one onecoiner too many. Plus if someone likes the code just fork it and change name and do a release. I am only here for two things: - to see how this proof of stake consensus will work as this could be a thing for Bitcoin future roadmap. - to see if anyone from the onecoin (the one without the actuall blockchain) will post some comments or enlighten us Proof of Stake:
- NO REWARD, ONLY TRANSACTION FEES
- A Stake will occur ONLY IF there is a transaction in the mempool that is paying the fee i see, so it auto-stakes (given you "win" in this competition), does the amount of mature coins matter? if it doesnt one can split up his coins to multiple wallets without doing work (besides having the daemon running) |

it s really nice set up. if i find a solution to get them, i will buy 100 pcs giant. i made a private room for them. everything is ready. But i have to find avoid the customs. The customs is a big problem. 100, holy  supply might be a problem as well for such large orders |

yeah it's very easy to use and very fast, it update almost instantly for me
btw my temp are 45° what are the maximum temp allowed? now that summer is coming again, i want to be sure that i'm far away from the limit
wanting to know as well, anyone? as apprently no one knows i have asked baikal: Regaridng of temmperature
can work good under 72 degrees, once miner is in over-degrees, it will stop hashing automatically. when temperature back to under 72 degrees, miner start automatically, back in hashing/ |

there are issues with (multiple) high clocked ram sticks installed, a friend of mine will try to get 3200mhz working, might have a great impact on cryptonight performance, sadly still no mobo arrived

im currently trying to understand the structure of cpuminer-opt/cpuminer-multi: i want to implement a basic cryptonight hashing function in javascript and/or port the C/C++ part of cpuminer-opt to js with asm.js, though im not sure what the best starting point for this basic task is
is there some documentation for devs which are not familiar with how mining software works?
i suppose writing this in js with libs is fairly easy
Not that I'm aware of. The first step is to identify everything needed for cryptonight. If all you want is the bare hashing function look in algo/cryptonight/cryptonight-aesni.c. If you need to rely on SW AES look in algo/cryptonight/cryptonight.c. There's a lot more to it if you want to build a mining app: UI, stratum/networking, multithreading, algo interface, algo support SW, I'm probably missing a couple. If you want to build a frankenstein you need to find the line between the core SW and the algo SW. That line is primarilly scanhash, though it's a very blurred line. Almost everything above it is core SW, and everything below is algo specific. The intent of algo-gate was to try to better define that line, but you can still see when the line is crossed by the custom target functions the algo has to give to the core. multi and ccminer have a bunch of algo hooks in the core code. I'm not familiar with any other miner architectures but I presume there still exists that basic interface where you input a message and get back a hash. thanks will look into it yes, im aiming for frankenstein, nothing pretty, it should just work |

fetch is only necessary if your local git repo doesnt have the new branch info from the remote(s) yet, after a clone there is no need for a fetch to get the legacy branch directly when cloning one can use: git clone <url> --branch <branch> |
|
|
|
yes, you will need to execute the second command as well, see here:  you can use to list all branches (not only the local ones), or for all remote branches |

I'm trying to work with branches in git and having problems. At the moment I'm stuck
trying to clone the legacy branch. When I clone the repo it has no knowledge of the legacy branch,
if I download a zip of the legacy branch git doesn't recognize it as a valid repo.
I would have preferred to keep the 2 branches seperate instead of having to switch branches but
I can't even see the legacy branch to switch to it.
in your local git repo do: git fetch
git checkout -b legacy origin/legacy
should work I don't think this will work, I need to specify where the branch starts. It looks like this is trying to recreate what I did on github. I don't want to recreate it I want to use what was previously created. fetch will update your local repo from github and checkout will checkout the branch specified |

Hi all,
i have written a small proxy nodejs script which will proxy standard tcp socket (stratum) connections to another proxy B which sends the data to a destination tcp socket (stratum) server.
i have done that to avoid same ip banning from nicehash for large ip ranges and i only have a metered internet connection at home so i just deployed it to openshift, thus relying on websockets instead of regular sockets.
is there any project using websockets already for stratum implementations, or is it just too much overhead ? i suppose it adds some overhead, but not that much
cheers
edit: im monitoring my reject rate with this setup, and so far it is zero (as it was without the proxy overhead)

no problem setting them up. Just like building legos...
