Do u have any mining performance for this card?
A tiny bit more than 280x/380x, same as 290/x which means you'd pay triple the price for a tiny bit more. For example my r9 290 does 25MH/s and my 280x/380x does 23.5. You might get something like 25.5~26MH/s right now. Mine gets 30-35MH/s. Quite a bit faster than the 290. I picked it up for $200 though... Thats pretty nice and weird, my 380x are slower than my 280x by 10%. I'm not sure whats up with that, honestly. |

Emotional? You were just making snarky comments instead of providing the instructions in the first place. Snarky is the emotion that exists only in your mind. "An answer means minutes of labor, a meter, and some requested instructions." If you want help, obtain and request three things. If you don't want help, then stop posting. It could not be simpler. I already asked. "Hence, are you going to provide said instructions, or?" |

Well a nice slow start to the Period. Run rate so far is -6%  I think there is an important difference this Period in that we entered it with a Full correction to the Difficulty, perhaps even an overcorrection? In the previous two periods we had an under-correction of at least 10% because of when Hash was added during the Periods. Rich I dont think so, the drop in hashrate coincide with the Batch 10 shipping out and there was a lot of BTC dropping in Bitmain,s pocket. It might not be the only factor but i would not be surprised if they mined on B10 during the latest holiday and when coming back they did tons of shipping. I guess until they hit the door we'll see less hashrate. |

Don't worry: I have no false illusions that this will last.
Uh, so the picture you posted shows the continued climb of network difficulty, it doesn't do much to support your statement. Difficulty is definitely not falling at all, let alone like a rock. And with stuff like this happening we can continue to expect the rapid upward adjustment of difficulty:  pls no. pls. So in 2 months what will be the resell value of an s7 ? 700$ at best i guess, unless BTC gets a huge upward jumps like a few months ago. I just wonder for how long this raise will keep up. Unless there's something better than 0.1J/GH that can get mass produced in the year or two, its going to have to slow down sometime before summer i think. |

I can solder repair stuff, I'm just wondering about the plugs... where to get the right replacement plugs on the board. I'm thinking I have to keep the metal parts of them, while just replacing the plastic parts? I think they are different than normal pci express plugs. I'll try to get some pics uploaded as soon as i can.
Thanks very much for replies.
I think i recall seeing them on frozencpu, but i dont know what the thing you refer to is called. http://www.frozencpu.com/I'm guessing if its common-ish to find, its going to be on that website. |

Well if you're not going to actually help, you dont have to continue with your snarky remarks. Why are you being emotional to a post that is 100% technical. Snarky is an emotion you have invented. One sentence says exactly how to obtain assistance. You must do three things. "An answer means minutes of labor, a meter, and some requested instructions." How much simpler can that be? Emotional? You were just making snarky comments instead of providing the instructions in the first place. Since you do not seem to be familiar with the term, here; snark·y
ˈsnärkē/
adjective
(of a person, words, or a mood) sharply critical; cutting; snide.
"the kid who makes snarky remarks in class"
cranky; irritable.
"Bobby's always a bit snarky before his nap" So, no, not my invention. Hence, are you going to provide said instructions, or? |

is it worth to try it out with 0.6TH power ? I never mined solo before. How little is chance to find a block with this mining power ? once in a 10 year or maybe 100 ?
Your odds are on average 37 years. So a very low chance to get one in the following month. Then it will maybe be something like on average 50 years in a month and so on. Its not impossible however. But i would do it at a trusted pool, not pointed at a bitcoin fork. Please don't insinuate that I'm not trustworthy. Or that bitcoin classic is somehow not trustworthy. And anyway, until 75% of previous 1000 blocks are mined on bitcoin classic nodes, there is no functional difference between bitcoin classic and bitcoin core (at version 0.11.2). And finally, the whole point here is for a "solo pool" for people who support an increased block size limit through hard fork via bitcoin classic. I assume anyone wanting to mine here has already decided they support that. I bluntly mean that there's no proof that you are trustworthy, not that you are untrustworthy. And the recommendation is that there is a trusted, known service, with probably better infrastructure/faster, with proven effectiveness with very low orphan rate, with lower fee, that is also much more professional than what sound like a "basement operation". For China and Bigger block. I reckon 2mB would be nice and not too bad for China. I think they were afraid of 8mB+ ongoing raise, which would probably eventually cause them problems with keeping up. If Classic is only a static 2mB raise then i reckon China MIGHT be inclined to all say yes, but i suppose we'll have to wait and see. |

You mean what? A multi meter? They dont record and i wouldnt want to spend days staring at it to see what it does. Record nothing. If a defect exists, it exists constantly. But the symptom of that defect occurs intermittently. A meter is so simple (requires no training) that junior high science students use it. An answer means minutes of labor, a meter, and some requested instructions. Measuring 12 volts says little that is useful. Instructions obtain in minutes numbers that results in an answer without any more speculation. Well if you're not going to actually help, you dont have to continue with your snarky remarks. Either help with instructions or not. Cheers. |

I would like to know more about the meanings of these numbers. I know what a couple of them mean so I erased them but these I just don't get can someone like make a small description of the numbers and what they mean thank you Im trying to get beter with bitcoins and know all about it.  "blocks" : 399184, "currentblocksize" : 749814, "currentblocktx" : 1605, "difficulty" : 163491654908.95926000, "genproclimit" : -1, "networkhashps" : 983842110216960512, "pooledtx" : 8403, "chain" : "main", Thank yall's Welp. "blocks" is block height #, blocksize is... block size, then how many TX, and current diff, genproclimit -1 means youre not limiting how many processor, network hash is ... network hash and pooled tx is how many TX in the pool. All the info and more details are on the wiki; https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Main_Page |

I dont have to tools to monitor it. The problem doesnt even happen anymore, however.
Symptoms no longer exist. But the defect does. Normal is for a defective part to still boot and run a computer. A meter is so ubiquitous as to be sold even in stores that also sell hammers. Often for less than the cost of a good hammer. Even available in Walmart for $15 or in Harbor Freight for $5. You mean what? A multi meter? They dont record and i wouldnt want to spend days staring at it to see what it does. When i check it quick, the DC voltage is good, a solid 12.08v or so. |

Maybe my belief comes from misunderstanding, however i had problems where my computer would lock up 5 or 6 times a day, on reboot, the bios would give me a warning that a surge was detected and the PSU was shut down for safety.
The word 'surge' has many and completely different meanings. For example, a surge on a USB port is due to insufficient current. A surge on AC mains is a massive current spike. A surge reported by a computer's motherboard is a low DC voltage problem. A plug in protector is for an AC anomaly. Your message is about a DC anomaly. To say more about why requires number from a meter using some requested instructions. That DC anomaly can result in intermittent computer instability. So, we'll never really know. Thanks for taking to time to reply regardless. But you're right, its at DC level. I dont have to tools to monitor it. The problem doesnt even happen anymore, however. Edit: Actually it does rarely if i plug 2 S1 on my PC's PSU. Loud would be 670W on my 750 evga g2. |

Then i dont know how to call them, but i saw volt go over and under current, i can see the voltage go +-5V in real time, sometimes it goes higher, the lights get bright and quiet often an incandescent ampule burn out. How do you call that?
You saw what voltage vary +-5V? Woefully subjective and vague. Voltage ideal for all 120 v appliances can vary well beyond 5 volts. Perfectly good even for motorized appliances - that are less robust. Incandescent bulbs can dim to 50% intensity. Or brighten to double intensity. Voltage changes that large are perfectly good for all electronics. Computers can withstand even larger variations. If voltage drops lower, then electronics do a normal power off. Why should normal voltage variations cause concern? And why is that harmful? That and other protectors completely ignore +-5V changes. Its let-through voltage is 330 volts. That means 120 volts must well exceed 330 volts before it does anything. What does a protector do when voltages vary +-5v? If a Leviton is properly earthed at the service entrance (ie at breaker box), then everything inside has effective protection. Leviton is effective when connected that close (low impedance) to earth ground. Lesser transients are already made irrelevant by what must exist inside every appliance. Thanks for the lesson. I dont have access to my panel's main breaker so i can't imagine installing one at that level. So i was wondering what i could do to keep all that equipment safer. Maybe my belief comes from misunderstanding, however i had problems where my computer would lock up 5 or 6 times a day, on reboot, the bios would give me a warning that a surge was detected and the PSU was shut down for safety. Then i changed surge suppressor/power strip and it flatly stopped. I got a couple of such occurrence where stability issues were resolved by adding or changing the surge suppressor. |

Microsurges of over current happen a lot here, i can see it on my multi meter, apparently surge suppressor help with that by absorbing the extra current, which reduce the long term strain on all the electronic connected to it.
If you can see it on a multimeter, then it is not a surge. If you saw it on a multimeter, relevant numbers were posted. Hearsay is routine when one cannot provide numbers. What is damaged by a micro surge? No number will be posted because propaganda invents a fear called micro surges - that never causes damage - that is undefined by a number - that cannot be measured by a meter. Anyone who first learned numbers would know that. For example, how many volts does an ethernet suffer without damage? 2000 volts. A micro surge that is well below 2000 volts somehow causes damage? Yes - when someone does not attack their source for not providing honesty - a number. No numbers is how scam artists recruit the most naive. Honestly can only exists when numbers are provided. Destructive surges are hundreds of thousands of joules. An effective protector connects something less than 50,000 amps low impedance (ie less than 10 feet) and harmlessly to earth. Then hundreds of thousands of joules dissipate harmlessly outside. Then micro surges also cause no damage. No numbers (and we all learned this from what promoted Mission Accomplished) are a first indication of scams and lies. Every honest recommendation also says where hundreds of thousands of joules are harmlessly absorbed. Always. Where did he provide even one number that defines a micro surge? Show us a meter number that says otherwise. Destructive surges are characterized by an 8/20 microsecond transient - another damning number. Learn this from any MOV datasheet. Meters can never measure that transients. Only the informed would know that. Numbers are ignored when ineffective (near zero) protection is recommended by myths and hearsay. Micro surges are made irrelevant by protection already inside every appliance. How many clocks, GFCIs, dishwashers, LED bulbs, radios, TVs, and recharging devices are you replacing daily or weekly due micro surges? None? What needs protection from micro surges? Smoke detectors? What protects THE most important appliance when any surge exists? Best protection is already inside every appliance. Micro surge are irrelevant when reality and numbers exist. An informed consumer earths a 'whole house' protector so that a typically destructive surge (and micro surges) do not cause damage. Most only know otherwise by ignoring spec numbers. The fewer and informed properly earth one 'whole house' protector. Then all surges cause no damage ... those damn spec numbers. Then i dont know how to call them, but i saw volt go over and under current, i can see the voltage go +-5V in real time, sometimes it goes higher, the lights get bright and quiet often an incandescent ampule burn out. How do you call that? |

Cards are working fine.
Mod/Escrow...the whole works.
Thanks.
PM me your offer. I'll probably be looking to buy again sometime next week. |

Because any gear that isn't running at 0.25W/ghash or less is no longer producing and profit and after the next diff change in the next 24 hours it will certainly be at a loss. There was an estimated 400 petahash of gear that should be shutting down over the next couple months. Looks like about half of it has just turned off. That or network variance. However considering that build out of new gear is still happening and hash rate is going down perhaps variance can't account for a decrease. Either way .. mining with anything but the S7, the latest Avalon and BW.com's 14nm miner thing will effectively cost more than it will mine even with fairly cheap power.
Thats just wrong. S5's are still 50%~ profitable on 0.06$/kWh which is not great but not bad either. This is around what you get if you have your things hosted in non rip off data centers. Right now i break even on S1's. The S3+ will be running for a bit longer still. What data centers are you getting .06 from? That is lower then most out there that I have seen actually. I know one that is a little above .07 that brags a lot about being one of the lowest. I think you will find more are closer to 8-10 cent area. And I agree it should be cheaper but they are not in most cases. Hosted by Allinvain in Canada. I'd use his services if i had to. If you can negotiate a deal for several months i think he can do bit better prices. When that S5 deal was going on that came with hosting from Allinvain, the hosting came down to just about 0.06$/kWh. Considering residential here get 0.062$ here... Industrial setups can get up to 0.03-0.04$/kWh here. 0.08 to 0.1$/kWh doesnt really make sense considering there's cheaper in the US(well i think Sidehack and Toomin comes down to really close to 0.08?) and if you dont mind shipping to Canada, anyone in Québec gets 0.06$~ |

Shouldn't this thread be in "Altcoins"? Can't tell if making a joke. Some make that argument, but Bitcoin Classic is not an altcoin. Classic Nodes still act exactly the same as Core nodes (or btcd nodes or any other bitcoin node) until 75% of the last 1000 blocks are mined by Classic nodes. At that point a 28 day timer starts. If that 75% level is maintained for that 28 days then on day 29 the Classic nodes can start processing, mining, and relaying blocks larger than 1 MB. It was a mild bit of mischief I admit Its not exactly untrue. Its still a fork, which will continue with the existing btc blockchain. Which still means its a different coin, which means its an altcoin. However if 75%+ decide that its the new way to go, then the fork will just become a part of Bitcoin's history as a whole. However i think the topic is a bit moot, because it won't happen. China has much more than 25% of the hashrate. Ergo this won't happen. (They dont want it) |

And does anyone know if you can use a full house surge protection for this by wiring it into the 240v cable?
Of course not. Surge protection is about connecting hundreds of thousands of joules on a low impedance (ie less than 10 foot) path to earth. If not at or in a breaker box. a protector is not doing protection. Protectors that would 'block' or 'absorb' a surge are selling a magic elixir. Anyone can read its numbers. Those adjacent protectors only claim to absorb hundreds or a thousand (near zero) joules. Effective protectors are connecting devices to what actually does protection. That means destructive surge current are not anywhere inside a house. That means hundreds of thousands of joules dissipate harmlessly outside. Micro surges of over current happen a lot here, i can see it on my multi meter, apparently surge suppressor help with that by absorbing the extra current, which reduce the long term strain on all the electronic connected to it. I'm not trying to block a lightning strike, here, i should be safe from that already. |
