How often does this app refresh the data?  I'm just trying to get a feel on how much data gets used if I'm not on wifi.

Since they're the 8gb I'd be interested in taking them both for $200 shipped.  Sending PM

I guess these are the 4gb models?

Mine always drops a little bit when submitting a share or when there's a new block but never to zero.

The pools don't know what your mining speed is and they are simply not going to trust that the hash rate you advertise to them is what your actual hash rate is.  Instead they have a difficulty setting.  The pools knows for example that at X difficulty a 100mhs rig should produce say 60 shares per hour or 1 share per minute.  If you submit one share per minute at that difficulty, then the pool will say ok you're making 100mhs.  If you produce one share every two minutes then the pool will say hey you're only at the 50mhs rate.  So depending how "lucky" or optimal your rig is at finding a share will effect the speed that the pool thinks you're rig is hashing at.  It simple cannot just take the word of your reported hash rate or people will just find a way to send exaggerated hash rates to the pool.  So the pool luck and your share luck also effect your total payout.

Thanks!  I was hoping for an update to the android version with alerts for individual miners.  I'll check it out.

Awesome!  Thanks Phil and all.  The BTC address in my signature is fine!

Yeah with the halving I imagine that it is much harder for any chance of return even with really cheap electric rates.  They would need to drop the price by half for me to even consider getting one with my rates.

To be fair AMD's main focus isn't just mining.  They aren't Bitmain and I believe that their main concern is fps rather than hash rate.  Just like people are not going to invest in creating an asic for an algo that may be gone in six month AMD is not going to invest heavily into optimizing their video cards to mine coins.

Nice should easily be able to run this off a 1300w PSU too.

So how's fan noise at 40%?

I purchased a few of these risers with the 6 pin PCIe power connectors so I could use them with my server power supplies.  They've been working pretty well for me so far.

Thanks for the tip.  I always left them all active and never would've thought of that.  Next system I'll give that a shot!

Shouldn't the 1070 be Computer 8.0?

I would definitely be interested in a low noise S9 and I really hope they do make one soon.

LOL I totally hear you there.  The rig I build on Windows 7 stole about 30 hours of my time to get it to recognize all the cards and to hash.  Of course I ran a Windows update and it was all over but the memories.  It would only recognize 2 of the 5 cards and sometimes wouldn't boot up at all.  Eventually gave up and went with Ubuntu and that took me another 30 hours or so to get that going right and knock on wood that system is running stable now.  Not optimal, but at least it is hashing away.

I think you are better off running these 480s with the PCIe risers that have the 6 pin PCIe power connectors instead of just the sata or molex connectors.

Looks like they're finally sold out of the S7-LN.

Yes I am really hoping that they adjust their prices after the halving.  They haven't adjusted the prices for their older S7 and S7-LN in a while which really surprises me.

From what I understand the 4gb cards memory clock is 7 ghz stock and the 8gb cards are 8 ghz stock so you might want to stick with the 8gb cards.
