Coinex has no volume why add it at all? Adding an exchange before it has a reasonable amount of volume it stupid Please consider to remove CoinEx quotation for ANC . They say their wallet has issue and there is a total out of market buy offer there. IMHO It is just smoke and mirrors and it modifies at the limit of lecit profitability for that coin.

I need a payout of my bbq coins. I get no response from your email. Also lebowski is not making payments must be on the wrong chain

vapor-x is way better than the windforce 3, the other two I haven't used except for a 5850 directcu that was awesome

Then it seems to me that its very unlikely we won't be at least over $100 a bitcoin by next year so why aren't more people investing it bitcoin. It seems like the only for sure thing of making some profit. It could still take you well over a year to receive a bfl product and there is no proof otherwise. What if all these preorder companies take a similar amount of time or don't produce anything. Are you forgetting that BFL said they would deliver in august of 2012, honest abe said so. History says you can't take any of these companies word for it, especially when they aren't willing to put up their own money and need to piggyback on your investment to make it happen. I was hoping for something more of a reason to sending random people an irreversible currency than they have the cheapest product. When it doesn't exist, its more like gambling on the hopes of making it rich. Now that to me seems stupid Jalapenos aren't 25BTC anymore. They're more like 3. And those Block Erupters really are a terrible investment. They are WAY too overpriced. Anyone recommending them is usually either A) stupid, or B) counting on mining on them for a small period of time and then reselling, which is hard to do just right.
For me, it's a simple question: what other alternatives are there? If I truly believe in Bitcoins, and want to mine and keep mining for several years, what's the best way to accumulate the currency?
Switching to LTC does nothing to help BTC, so I avoid LTC as a matter of principle. Buy BTC and hold? That only works if the price is guaranteed to increase, and isn't a good long-term option. It might take a year for a Jalapeno to mine back those BTC, but what if I mine that Jalapeno for 5 years? I come out ahead. You could buy ASICMiner shares, but I dont consider them good for all of BTC. WAY too centralized. If you want to mine BTC, ASICs are the only real, viable option for the long-term.
Now I'm talking about mining here, and there are always other options to invest BTC to make BTC. You could give out small loans and make money on the interest. You could invest in a small startup that sells good for BTC. There are probably hundreds of ways to make BTC that aren't mining.

I don't understand why people are paying for kncminer and bitfury preorders. I remember last year and I almost bought a BFL jalapeno for 25 bitcoin. Would I have 5gigahash right now if I had, yeah probably. But I backed out at the last second because it was too good to be true. Will anyone with a BFL jalapeno mine 25BTC? Maybe but it will take them well over a year. So why is everyone ready to throw money at devices that don't exist? Not only that but these same people who are buying preorders tell people buying block erupters they are wasting their money. At least their devices actually exist. Not only that, but the prices look like a bargain compared to 25BTC jalepeno's

shutting down after about 10 min tells me the power supply is borderline not powerful enough, its possible you could disable things on your motherboard and underclock cpu to get it to work but i still wouldn't recommend it as you don't want to run your psu at 100%. the power usage on the cards is creeping up when they reach operating temperature and also the psu heating up will cause the maximum power available to decrease

Do you guys ever install them? anyone know what they do? I have no idea what is in this almost 1GB of system drivers that come with my motherboard? I always pick up my video drivers from AMD website and I currently have no devices showing missing drivers in device manager without installing them

Who even cares if someone doesn't pay taxes on their bitcoin? The government doesn't care when apple or GE doesn't pay their taxes so why should I have to. The government rarely does anything about rich people having overseas bank account and avoiding taxes. Not only that they give the rich cheaper taxes via capital gains. Our government could get rid of the income tax if it really wanted to. Just stop trillions of war spending. So no I will not pay my taxes. This country was founded on people just like me not on people like you who happily bend over for their government Good, if you don't try to circumvent the law, and pay all due taxes on profits made through bitcoin, then I have no issue with you personally. However, understand that you are in the minority in this community.

In my experience mining ltc is about 12 degrees hotter than an memory underlocked 5800 series running bitcoin, it shouldn't be thirty. Here's what I would check in order of most likely to least likely
Check that fan is still operating full speed Thermal paste may need to be reapplied Heatpipe on cooler could be damaged warping of heatsink (rare but I've seen it happen) some cards like being perfectly level and will give off high temps if not

what block am I suppose to be on I'm showing 175038?
|

I don't think cfm is what you would need to worry about. Almost any 120mm fan will put out more cfm than a high end 80mm. But if your trying to modify the cooler the more important part would be to build air pressure so that the air actually goes through the fins on the heatsink vs around it

Your definitely right about having an active ups and I do plan on buying one when I get more asics, more than just the few block erupters I have now. It just never was reasonable to do when running thousand of watts of gpu's How long your video cards for the most part, relies almost entirely on the power being provided to it. You will have the best success with clean power from the outlet, from the power supply, from the motherboard and finally from the voltage regulators on the card itself. Many people think its the temperature itself but high temps just put your voltage regulators closer to their highest tolerances, which then results in failing components
Unfortunantly if you don't have a (high quality, line active) UPS, ensuring good power from the outlet is difficult or just impossible. I am very skeptical of cheap (<$20) surge suppression devices that a lot of people will think are actively doing something, when in fact they are just a $0.50 MOV or two and some wires on the inside. The AC side of a quality switch mode PSU is usually pretty good at sorting some kinds of problems with the AC line. Many of the expensive ones can these days can even shut themselves down if they detect strange transient voltages, to protect themselves. There should be some good energy storage on both sides of the high frequency transformer, that helps give good smooth DC power on the output. For example my Corsair HX1000 has even survived ~1 second complete power outages where most of my other computers and appliances have shut down, no doubt thanks to the huge electrolytic caps that must be inside it, and with not even 1% change on the DC output mind you!

I think the usb miners flash every difficulty one share, cgminer may only submit shares at a higher difficulty depending on the pool setting. When you first start cgminer it will show "Pool 1 Difficulty changed to 4" or something similar. As long as cgminer shows you are getting shares, nothing to worry about

I might buy this from you in a week or so if you still have it. I have another kenwood that needs replaced due to rca jacks and would be great to drop it in without rewiring. Can you test the RCA's that they give a firm connection with no audio drop outs
|
|

hardly below cost... but close to cost. It looks like someone gave their alt nick away
|
|
|
you can run cgminer with --disable-gpu.... have no idea about bfgminer though

update: tech republic 7 port burns up the power adapters with 6 filled, going back down to 5 each. They are sending replacements power adapters for free though so not a huge loss. I have one hooked up to psu power with all 7 filled and works so far. I will report back in a couple weeks when I'm fairly certain its ok, and before converting the others to molex connectors
