Hello

I understand that a NVidia card is of course not optimal for mining due to it's inherent lower MHhash/s speed, but if you are stuck mining with a 560 Ti (bought it for gaming, then decided to go mining later, whatever), here is how I increased my hash rate from 90MH/s to 108.2 MH/s:

In NVIDIA Inspector 1.9.6.5 (http://downloads.guru3d.com/NVIDIA-Inspector-1..9.6.5-download-2612.html), click "Show Overclocking" then confirm that you understand the risks.
After this, set your:
Memory Clock: 1382 MHz (could go lower if you want)
Shader Clock: 2053 MHz (much above this and it is unstable)
Voltage: 1.050 V

Click "Apply Clocks & Voltage" and start up your miner and see if it is stable. If not, adjust the shader clock down a tad until it becomes stable for more than a minute or two.

Don't have much time right now, but later I'll go through and see if I can't push it to ~110 MH/s, I'll update this post if I am able to.

P.S.: At this clock my GPU stays at around 70C, so I think I have still a fair amount of headroom for chaining settings.

Hey, been trying out the site, quite fun .

Just one thing I've noticed aside from what people have been saying lately, earlier you said, Nachtwind, you have a fully-working shop, but it doesn't seem to be working for me When I try to buy an upgrade with any type of coin... it says "Button Here" instead of having a clickable button. Is there something I'm doing wrong, or are we just waiting on an update for this?

Again, awesome project

Pla: thank you Not sure exactly how to implement this, but that logic will help alot

markm: I haven't really seen litecoins used for virtually any gaming aside from 1 or 2 sites, bit coins seem of course more frequent, but still not "common". Yea, I see what you mean, litecoins would be more for products not currency in a virtual game?

@Rothgar: you are talking about the text-based RPG? Thanks Do you know any kind of thing to link an amount received in LTC to a wallet to a certain address to writing a file? This is the one major roadblock I see in the way of the project...

Quick question, could someone help me set up solomining? I have litecoin downloaded and working (with around a 47 LTC balance I got from pool mining). I have had no trouble pool mining, but I set the litecoin.conf just like this:

testnet=0
server=1
rpcuser=miner
rpcpassword=litecoin

block_nTime=1317972665
block_nNonce=2084524493

#gen=0

#Change this if you want to use a different rpc port for mining
#rpcport=9332

#Only uncomment this if you are running litecoind (not Litecoin QT)
#daemon=1

and I am using the following settings in ScryptMiner (with a GUI frontend):

Threads: 4 (I have a i5-2500k) Scantime: 5
RPG Server: 1 (also tried server and localhost)
Username: miner
Password: litecoin
Port: 9332
<No additional parameters>

Could someone point out if I am doing something wrong? thanks!

To get a few things straight (although I don't think this will help anything):
1.) I am not coinhunter, I don't support solidcoin, I have never even used solidcoin.
2.) I am also not never2sleep, I lent him bitcoins and he returned them quite quickly. After that whole issue, I moved on to investing in more ensured things (relatively speaking), at the momeny hash king's bitcoin deposits.

As well, even if I was either of these people, I am only trying to ask whether Litecoins are a viable currency and whether people accept them, and I got my answer, thank you . Do you think there would be any demand for a text-based RPG that uses litecoins as an internal currency? Litecoins seem like a perfect choice because of their relative ease of mining/producing, and since they are cheap, they'd be an interesting currency for truly micro-transactions, and could be used as the true or secondary internal currency that players trade in. Just an idea that I've had rolling around for a bit of time now.

And BitcoinEXpress: why would I be a scammer? I have never scammed anyone... as well @BitcoinEXpress, not sure if your response was sarcastic, but LTC at the moment seem much more useful than Solidcoins.

Guys I don't support SolidCoin, doesn't seem like the people behind it have any interest in anything but profit, and the latest MicroCash whatever seems more than a tad fishy with statements like "Sell your bit coins while you can!", etc. I was simply wondering what you guys thought about Litecoin as I've had some fun mining them lately and have around 45 and was wondering if the project was dead or not.

At any rate, does anyone know of any retailers that actually do accept LTC for one thing or another? I'd simply like to know if I have any options for spending them.

Hello I have recently become interested in LTC and have mined 7-8 of them (mostly on GPU, ~75khash/s).

I was curious what you guys thought... is litecoin dead? Are there any known merchants that accept LTC? I poked around on the internet and couldn't find any merchants accepting them, did I miss something? I understand the exchange rate is orders of magnitude lower than BTC (1BTC is worth thousands of LTC).

Read through about 10 pages of this thread so far, and was just wondering, how's the current shipping lengths these days? Thinking of getting a single.

Sorry I'm a bit confused, how/where do I deposit bitcoins into? (Sorry I'm really new to all of this...).

@Tomatocage: I honestly just got tired of this thread and didn't find much else of interest on the forums in the lending section. BTW, is a 7970 worth it for mining, or would I be better getting something like say a 5850?

If you guys want some more information about who I am, I am Vorksholk and I run a minecraft server (server.omicroncrew.com) participate in a YouTube channel (omicroncrew) and more with this same username. No one named never2sleep has any correlation to any of those. Food for thought, I suppose.

Guys, here is some food for thought. I have a fairly large online presence between all the sites I've used the same username (Vorksholk) on, just google "Vorksholk" or here is a google link (which goes to page 19 auto): https://www.google.com/search?rlz=1C1ASUM_enUS477US477&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8&q=Vorksholk#q=Vorksholk&hl=en&safe=off&rlz=1C1ASUM_enUS477US477&prmd=imvns&ei=1kqST7-hN8aeiAKCyKgJ&start=180&sa=N&bav=on.2,or.r_gc.r_pw.r_qf.,cf.osb&fp=11e991441f3e1091 .

Look up never2sleep, it is very different. We had registration dates similar, and similar numbers of posts, and I lent bitcoins to him and was payed back a lot faster than I anticipated, not solid evidence we are the same people, although I can see where you are coming from. I'm not just lending to this guy and leaving, I'm going to lend to others and probably invest in hashking's deposit. I'm surprised on all the negative attention I've received here with lending someone with a similar number of posts and a similar join date some bitcoins.

What kind of proof are you guys looking for to prove we are not the same people anyhow? Are you looking for something like ID, etc. because IP address/geolocation/information on profile/posting history doesn't seem to be good enough (which I can totally understand). At any rate, what kind of evidence are you guys truly looking for here? Being that bitcoin is based around the ability to be anonymous, it's pretty hard to track anything like an address I understand, so transaction records are practically worthless.

@bo2573: why is that?

Bitcoin loan repaid far before due date, and with an extra +4% to interest rate!

Not sure if this is common convention, but need2sleep: you may want to post the blockchain.info transaction, not sure if this is something people regularly do, I'm very new to this.

Yeah, I'm planning to moving over to investing in hashking's deposits perhaps once I build my rep up just a tiny bit. Anyone here had any direct experience with hashking's deposit service? Looks pretty credible due to what I've seen so far.

Psy... we are not one and the same. Not sure how to prove it to you, but I joined this forum when I saw the topic for Coinworker.com (awesome service, BTW.) and eventually purchased one month from bitservers.co.uk. First time I've seen never2sleep in my life is today, and figured I'd join in on the lending bandwagon, see what it's all about and get someone's rep up a bit.

I'm surprised how much negative attention this thread has gotten. He is just building rep... I understand it is risky, but oh well.

Anyhow, 10 BTC sent to the address you PM'd me, you can see that here: http://blockchain.info/address/1CBMQ72AMXPPLRsZEiFkJUPM3xuD6fSk9Q


@PatrickHarnett: Just curious, what are you getting at with your post about our registration dates? Just curious.

@Tomatocage: Just wanted to make sure everything was clarified and set-in-stone, no room for confusion when I was very specific, lol.

I'll give you a 10 BTC loan with a 1% interest rate, so after the two week period you will send back 10.1 BTC on 5/3/12. If this sounds good to you leave a response and we'll work out the details.

Hey, I just bought MW2, seems like an awesome service. At any rate, just wondering, what's your turnaround like?
