no sir not calling 69 hot, Im calling 100c hot. which as you can see from the pic two of my gpus are doing or right at it. I called msi they said they have tested up to 100c but don't know much after that.
Get MSI afterburner, undervolt a bit and set up a custom fan curve to try to keep all GPUs below 80. |

You ignore the most plausible explanation; namely that he didnt earn any money at all and was just operating a ponzi. That correlates perfectly with what you see with that wallet.
No, I said there were too much money for that. There was a message somewhere that said how much interest he was paying for one week, and if that number was right the base sum would be about 500 000 BTC when he defaulted. That includes a lot of compound interest, so the total sum people have sent to him and not withdrawn would be perhaps 100-150k. This wallet has much more than that. I think we can work on the assumption that the guy running the massive ponzi scheme might have... lied  |

It doesn't make sense either way. It has many more coins than he would have if it is a ponzi,
Why do you say that? Keep in mind that the bulk of investors most likely compounded their interests. If you believed pirate was legit, it would be almost silly not to. Precious few coins would therefore have to leave that wallet. pirate said he maintained several wallets. The PPT operators would be able to confirm whether they ever sent funds to the wallet in question. Given that most funds were reinvested and there appeared to be a net inflow every week, he could maintain a buffer somewhere else whilst diverting any coins he didn't need to make that week's interest payments to this massive cold storage address. Furthermore, remember when pirate claimed to be crashing the market, and brought BTC price down from $9 to $7.50? There are 80K BTC of withdrawals from that wallet that coincide perfectly with that event  Also, now that BS&T is gone the funds from that wallet are slowly disappearing into various mixing services - Is it that hard to believe? |

Since I have been forced to post in this tiny, sad world of Newbies without the ability to message the creator...
Im looking for an auto-shutoff feature for GUIminer so that when power is removed from my laptop it wont run while on batteries. I dont need my computer to burst into flames while in my bag, and running GUIminer all the time will kinda do that.
Repost for me to the creator if you can. Thanks!
You're mining on a laptop? |

Yeah Ive had the issues sorted out, I'm doing about 800Mh/s average with constant peaks upwards of 1200+. Im sure I can do a LOT more on the fine-tuning but as of now, it is of nice power. If only linux ran it.. Im currently using CGMiner @I=14. the card is only running at 75 degrees, i know I can push it more.
75 degrees is nice. If I tried to get 800Mh/s out of this rig, it would probably melt. I find ATI/AMD cards impervious to whatever I can throw at them. I had an x850XT(AGP) in my old computer, i unplugged the fan and the card was running at 120C for 6 hours straight and it laughed at me, compared to every nvidia card I get which I end up frying within the first 24 hours. I've seen enough broken 6990s and 5970s on the forums here to know that they're not as solid as you might think. It's usually the VRMs that go, it's a good idea to drop VDDC about 100mV if you can. |

Anyone having trouble with Bitinstant? I made a sizable deposit. Received email confirmation of the deposit but Nothing from bitinstant to my MtGox account!! I've successfully used bitinstant in the past so I am not sure what is going on... What am I supposed to do now? I can't log in to their IRC support and am unable to reach them by phone. Any Help Appreciated. This will be the last time I work with BitInstant.
Message them on the forums and calm down, they're very good operators, they're not after stealing your money somehow |

Nevermind, looks like I was paid in full  You didn't happen to get an extra 2650 BTC by chance, did you ? I figure that since BTCST and GPUMAX share a wallet, there might be a chance you ended up with my BTC by accident. Let me know. No such luck. So! Gpumax is back, I've still got a substantial chunk of my hashes going through here, how about a bit of public work then  |
|
|
|
Well holy shit I'm now 95% paid up If this is surprising to anyone, maybe you shouldn't be mining on gpumax. Well given that the service apparently shares wallets with BS&T, I imagine I'm not the only one who's been a bit concerned... |

I'm still sending fairly considerable hashrate this way - payments are currently 6 days behind (having caught up a bit since a few days ago). Do the stats from the 25th onwards look a bit funny to anyone else? |

Ouch though, is the problem with certain upstream pools (I've noticed that slush and EMC have been sending out more rejects than usual lately) or definitely a problem with your infrastructure?
Many a pool op must be scrambling right now to deal with the quick increases in hashpower: Network speed touched 20TH recently. Accross the board we're seeing varying symptoms of capacity problems at upstream pools, and those are never good for the miners. And we're having our own growing pains as well. The next release of our pool software (due in a few weeks) will address these, and furthermore will offer both time-rolling and higher difficulty shares for those interested. How are you handling dealing out higher difficulty work when so much of it is proxied? Will this be to your own bitcoind? |

Current channel topic is:
"Payments for midnight 8/26 through midnight 8/27 sent at 12:16 PM on 8/31 (CST)"
Cool, I wonder if this means GPUMax is sticking around for the foreseeable future - we shall see, a portion of my hashes are still going through it though  |
|

And if anyone wants to mine for me I'll pay you a bonus of 4.8% Ouch though, is the problem with certain upstream pools (I've noticed that slush and EMC have been sending out more rejects than usual lately) or definitely a problem with your infrastructure? |

Have we had an announcement that payments will absolutely definitively be going out tomorrow at midnight... or the day after... or the day after that, yet?
|

So, we have an address here that had built up a massive war-chest of coins since earlier in the year, and immediately following the BS&T collapse has started to try to launder the proceeds.
Hmmmmm.

My best explanation for this phenomenon is bus speed. While you may have a high end motherboard, the 6990 actually hits the limits of PCI-e 2.0. And running them in crossfire means you have to share the pipelines on the motherboard with another card. Most motherboards operate at 16x for the primary slot, but the secondary usually only runs at 8x, so you are pushing the same amount of data through half the pipelines.
Not relevant for mining. For mining purposes a 6990 will sit happily on PCI-e 1x. |

on buying some SC's....
Is it a scam?
Will they perform as they should?
Do I want to invest in mining for BC?
Are there any strong examples of people actually making money or is this more of a hobby?
I have enough hobbies, do I need another one?
What's on the tv tonight?
I'm sleepy, I should hit the bed!
Pretty much my train of thoughts....
I pay my rent every month from my BTC As for the SC's, you're probably right to be sceptical on performance and delivery... Personally I'm just mining my GPUs into the ground, then after ASICs come out I'll see where the dust settles... That's pretty impressive. I would love to pay my rent with BTC profits. How long did it take you to get too that point in profits? I had a gaming PC with an unlocked 6950 in it, discovered bitcoin in April last year, started mining, spent BTC earned on hardware, picked up some more cheap GPUs back last october when nobody wanted them, I was actually intending to sell them on ebay when the BTC price picked back up again. So I have 4 5830s, 4 7970s, 3 5970s all running and I have cheap rent Power bill is a lot higher than it used to be though I also run a little bonus pool (I hop pools, make more money, pay my miners >100% PPS) and that makes me probably a grand total of a few extra BTC per month |

You're winning by about a gigahash |

Have not tried that but ive always assuemd raising that would be a main contributor to a short lifed card. both the cards have the OC switch flipped on them and then speed set at 915, I went off vid I found on youtube a year ago. speeds have been good till here recently.
Rolled back to 12.3 catlyst driver set Fired it up, it ran for about 1-2 mins and whole system shut down, restarted and tried one more time and same thing.
any how, just got in from the work, time to trouble shoot it more if I can. LOL.
Post a screenshot from HWmonitor - mining with the full OC settings on + some heatsink dust over time could mean your cards are throttling due to high core or VRM temperatures. |
