Do you turn off xfire while mining? What is your hash rate per GPU and Total?
Turning crossfire on or off doesn't seem to change hash rate significantly (maybe a slight decrease).  Right now I run two instances of GUIminer, each set to one of the GPUs.  I get ~350-370 mhsps per card while idle or doing lightweight stuff like browsing the internet.  Crossfire on doesn't seem to increase the performance of card
  • .  Usually have to turn one or both off for playing games.
The 6900 series cards do a good good job mining and gaming at the same time.  I have a 6950 and play Black Ops and GTA4 with out a problem with -F 99, second GPU -F 1... xfire off

807  Bitcoin / Pools / Re: What mining pools have you tried? What did you think of them? Where are you now? on: December 03, 2011, 09:13:31 PM
I just started mining a couple weeks ago after I built a new gaming PC. Crossfired 2x6970 and GUIMiner right now.

Tried slush's pool, didn't get it working.
Tried bitcoinpool.org and they banned me for turning off mining while playing games (i think)
Settled on deepbit because it was easy and had regular payouts.

No arguing about who is doing it wrong, I want to hear about your own personal experience.

Do you turn off xfire while mining? What is your hash rate per GPU and Total?

Why nope?  Support it with logic...
Support your statement with actual people.

Also, you STILL have not given an actual logical reason that makes sense (to anyone but yourself) for wanting it.
LOL @ this being the one part of the post you choose to ignore.

brilliant...

Also, I bet you will attract more miners if you show the number of shares since your last block found.
Nope, still nope.

Who cares why I want it.
Actually, it does matter for a number of reasons. Two that I can think of off the top of my head are 1. Using one pool's stats to do evil on another pool and 2. Screen clutter/confusing other BTC Guild users. Many would wonder why round shares are being reported in a pool where round shares DO NOT MATTER to ANYONE (but Eleuthria) because of the PPS payment system. Also, you STILL have not given an actual logical reason that makes sense (to anyone but yourself) for wanting it.

I pay fees and so will more miners.
Nope, still nope.

Why nope?  Support it with logic...

"Screen clutter/confusing other BTC Guild users?" I am talking about in JSON...are you watching stats via the api page?

Two things off the top of my head to help, 1. please stay away from the API page like https://www.btcguild.com/api.php?api_key=UrWEtoddDiDSOFAkingWEtoddDiD to view stats 2. just go to https://www.btcguild.com for stats.  less confusing...

"Using one pool's stats to do evil on another pool?"  That is crazy talk; can you articulate an explanation to that statement..?

Thanks for the input.  Please maintain seriousness at all times  Grin

All that's going to show is how much El made or lost on the round and well TBH I don't care about that...

That is why even I don't keep track of it.  A huge reason for the switch to PPS was to reduce the mental fatigue of monitoring round lengths and freaking out everytime we had a long round.  I monitor profit/loss (which is just luck in the end) on a much broader scale now.  I have no control or influence on it, so obsessing over that kind of stat is just a waste of energy.

E - I want to apologize for giving you and your fanboys a hard time  Kiss.  I found that your pool's share reject rate to be a better metric to compare your pool against other pools in a backup role (non-prop pools that pay consistent reward for each share submitted.)  Your pool is efficient enough to be a primary pool for my proxy which comprises of BTCG, ABC, Ars, Triple, Red, Master, Eligius, EMC, and Yourbtc.  EMC, Masterpool, and BTCG are very efficient.  Keep up the good work!

I know the payment methods are different, but efficiency is the most important important metric with my mining strategy. Wink

Also, I bet you will attract more miners if you show the number of shares since your last block found...hurts nobody and you can get meds to control your anxiety "A huge reason for the switch to PPS was to reduce the mental fatigue of monitoring round lengths and freaking out everytime we had a long round."...  Not a problem for me...  Who cares why I want it...Eve and I pay fees and so will more miners...if you aren't a Moron, you will see it is win/win...sorry for the loaded statement, you are obviously smart but unreasonably obstinate...

Why remove it?  I am using it to compare PPS, SMPPS, DGM, and PPLNS for payouts and speed of payouts...  See, your pools is in competition with other pools and payout systems.  Other Pure PPS pools provide the info, and you said it was already implemented, so WHY won't you display it? Listen, in business when your competition provides better service (as seen by the customers, not you) you will loose market share.  See we are supposed to be partners, not you dictating what i need.  Also, the pools doesn't get paid until you find a block and complete a round, SO IT DOES EXIST IN YOUR WORLD, YOU ARE JUST PREVENTING YOUR MINERS (CUSTOMERS) FROM SEEING IT!

Payouts and speed of payouts for my pool DO NOT HAVE ROUNDS.  Payout = (1 / Difficulty) * 47.5.  You can request that for withdrawal within about 5 seconds of submitting a share (shares are logged in batches so the only delay is the couple of seconds between batches).

My competition having rounds doesn't change that.  Rounds were "removed" it because the switch to PPS was a complete rewrite, the only thing that remained was the layout.  I did not "remove" them, I simply did not put bother to code rounds into a pool that does not function using rounds which are a score/proportional/smpps tool, not a PPS tool.

This is NOT an issue of transparency, its an issue of creating useless garbage that serves no purpose.  I can make up a thousand stats like rounds, but the end result is absolutely nothing related to payouts are affected.  Would you like me to make the knobs go to 11 while I'm at it?

Dude, your fee's are higher than everyone except MT.RED (if you do the analysis, the worst performing payout.).
There is only one pure PPS pool cheaper than us, ABCpool.  They don't have merged mining, which at these exchange rates actually makes up for more than the fee difference.  However, I don't try to market this pool as a low/no fee pool since I switched to PPS.  If you can't understand the purpose of a fee on a pure PPS pool, you're free to leave.

" If you can't understand the purpose of a fee on a pure PPS pool, you're free to leave."  You are a shitty business man!  "I don't want your hash power, so leave" 

Thanks for saving me from wasted time monitoring round shares...I am not, my "puter" does...but your lazy drone miners will be free from looking at them (thanks control freak)...missing out on the hash power of myself and others like me (and there area bunch, Moron (psychology), disused term for a person with a mental age between 8 and 12, and a common insult for a person considered stupid )   They must be smarter than I by not waiting time with a jerk to provide extra info for fee paying miners...jackarse!

hmm might be a noob ? but what happens  with the transaction fee that is earned on blocks that have them?

D- hmm, maybe your a tard?  "but what happens  with the transaction fee that is earned on blocks that have them?" makes me think so???

E- So, the other Pure PPS are better at servicing their miners, and more transparent with their stats?  Cause you avoided the fact your competition does.  Moreover, you choosing not to display it cause you say we don't need it, but I am saying I do. I'm not calling you self-righteous, condescending, or arrogant.  However, I would like to see it to adjust for difficulty changes.  Thanks


Please explain the usefulness of round stats in a pool where there is no concept of rounds.  This isn't an issue of transparency, it is something BTC Guild removed internally after switching from Proportional to PPS.  For a pool that is PPS and -only- PPS, a round has no purpose.  I would love to hear why you need something like round share stats on a pure PPS pool.

What do you want to see adjust for difficulty changes?  The payout rates update instantly after a difficulty change (its completely automated).  The website display reflects new payout rates within 5 seconds (once the next batch of shares are logged to the database).

Dude, your fee's are higher than everyone except MT.RED (if you do the analysis, the worst performing payout.)  You have been accused of messing with shares to make 4% in the past (not saying if it was true) BUT YOU SHOULD BE THE LAST ONE TO HOLD BACK INFO SINCE YOU HAVE A BAD REP IN THE PAST...  So, what your problem with control?  Would it take down the pool?  Are the fees for my 2ghs that you collect from me to pay for you to sit on this board and give me reasons not to do it?  Does it take days to re-implement?  Dude, you must suck in business...  Very good at playing GOD...

BTW, I talk a lot of $hit so please don't be offended; I am sure you are a great guy...  dmcurser...?

Sounds to me like you have no idea how Pay Per Share works?!?!

I would recommend you read Meni Rosenfelds documents on pool reward systems.

The number of blocks found by BTC Guild have no bearing on the price per share for the shares that you contribute.  The price per share is calculated off of the current difficulty.  So if BTC Guild finds more blocks it will have taken more shares to find those blocks and thus more shares are paid to the miners.

Sam, you have no clue why i am asking for it...

PPS payment doesn't depends on blocks. You don't need to wait for round completion. In most or all true PPS pools your balance is credited after each submitted share.

Pool owner may just send those shares to /dev/null if he wants to. PPS means "we are buying your shares and nothing more". No rounds, no invalids, no waiting for confirmations.

Sorry to break into your discussion, but I'm providing PPS service too and I really don't understand why someone would need a shares-in-the-round counter if nothing depends on it.
May be you just want to know when BTCGuild round ends for poolhopping to proportional pools ?

Maybe, I would like to use BTCG as a backup? Which I stated some posts back.  There is no "benefit" for me to know when the round starts, but for me to use BTCG as a backup pool, I just need the share count to differentiate BTCG from a slow or bad luck pool and thus slower payouts...  Not hard guys, that is why I don't understand WHY it is so hard to enable, yet would be a win win for the all or us...pool picks up hash rate and I (and others like me) can include BTCG in a backup role...  To "know when BTCGuild round ends for poolhopping to proportional pools ?" makes no sense...why would anyone wait on a BTCG round to hop to a prop pool? 

Why keep saying "You don't need it (even though i keep asking for it) so you can't have it (even though I and others with the same needs get it at other pure PPS pool that I am contributing shares to.)

See ABCpool:
Shares 3911
Invalid 7
Reject rate  0.18% (better than BTCG?)
Pool Speed   320   

I would send shares to BTCG depending how I want to compare the pools via the round shares, which do exist when BTCG finds a block...  You even said "Pool owner may just send those shares to /dev/null if he wants to..." 

"Pool owner may just send those shares to /dev/null if he wants to. PPS means "we are buying your shares and nothing more". No rounds, no invalids, no waiting for confirmations." is from the standpoint of a miner in an ideal world...  As I hope I have explained enough about why I, and others who mine through a proxy, need in order to prioritize competitive PPS,SMPPS, and DGM pools
