If you took loans out to buy mining rigs, you deserve to go bankrupt. I cant believe people would be so stupid as to do something like that.

the solution is to run less cards if you wont try another OS
1583  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Mining for the non-profit sector. Need to exceed 2 mBTC per day per 1070… on: July 07, 2017, 07:06:48 PM
Lets summarize this:

1. OP floats idea that will cause him financial ruin.

2. People warn him of this.

3. He screams like a child and starts throwing out insults to everyone and anyone. (Sounds like the kind of person I want working with my gifted child for sure)

4. People point out all the different ways in which his idea is no good.

5. Ignores all answers, throws out even crazier numbers, gets laughed at more.

6. People still try to patiently explain how wrong he is about these ideas, attempting to save him from a huge mistake.

I think that about covers it.


P.S. If people are too lazy to learn about a method of funding that could change their child/families life and expect you to magically make it happen for them....do they really deserve the help?

The real issue is sourcing hardware right now. Chances are it will take 3 months to find all the hardware you need.
1585  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Mining is not stable on: July 07, 2017, 06:54:58 PM
I see no problem at all with what you posted. What exactly is the problem?

Mining isnt a flat line, you may just think that because some pools do smoothing on the curves so that it looks nicer.

For example:

bitcoin miner:



ZEC mining:



ETH mining:

1586  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: 8 x 1070 gtx on nicehash only 20$/day is this correct? on: July 07, 2017, 06:47:38 PM
How did you do your math? Right now 3500 sols is $23 a day. Not sure how that is less than the $20 you get from nicehash.
1587  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Mining for the non-profit sector. Need to exceed 2 mBTC per day per 1070… on: July 06, 2017, 10:16:21 PM
I was getting upwards of 2.4 mBTC per 1070 per day with NiceHash v1.7.5.12.


This has nothing to do with what version of Nicehash you are running. You need to learn the fundamentals behind the coins yourself before you try and pitch it to other people. You cant just will your graphics card to make more money then is actually possible based on EVER CHANGING market conditions. There is literally no way to guarantee a specific payout in the crypto world. Things change by the minute. You need to figure out another way to fund your venture, this will NEVER work for you.

how do you know its detecting 2 rear fans? screen shot your UI and post it here so we can make sense of it

Run a linux based OS like simplemining or ethOS
1590  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: closed mining case? on: July 05, 2017, 03:44:49 PM
I run a Fractal Design Define XL R2

It has room for 2 watercooled 1080s as well as a CPU water block radiator. It is also an insulated silent case.
1591  Bitcoin / Mining speculation / Re: Commercial Mining Hardware on: June 30, 2017, 11:22:31 PM
I am not talking about about the Antminers, Dominators etc, stuff that we can buy in server rack forms so we can scale up well and quickly.
Any pointers thanks, happy to even hire someone as a consultant who has a previous background with commercial mining.
thanks
 

I think you are lacking a basic understanding of the current state of hardware, mining datacenter layout, and mining in general. The devices you mentioned ARE commercial mining equipment. A mining datacenter has little if nothing to do with a traditional datacenter build/layout. There are no current generation miners being mass produced that are rack mountable. There are people on this forum selling custom rack mount boxes you can place the miners inside of but that will greatly add to your cost and most likely cause cooling problems unless you are using air conditioning. If you are planning on using air conditioning you should just stop with this idea right now as you will quickly bankrupt yourself building the wrong kind of datacenter for what you are trying to accomplish. If you are serious about this and would like to discuss a path forward feel free to reach out to me via PM. I have more commercial mining experience than most everyone on this site.
1592  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Be a miner as a dayjob... on: June 30, 2017, 11:11:33 PM
99% chance that its not going to be that profitable until Mid 2018, maybe till the end of the year however it might.

Let me put it to you this way

At the end of 2013, a Radeon R9 280X made about $10/day in Nov-Dec 2013. $7.50/day in Jan 2014. $5/day in Feb 2014. $2.5/day in March 2014, $1.50 in April 2014, in the summer of 2014, it made ~$1/day, at the end of 2014, it made $0.25/day.

Why? Because you are not the only one "thinking" of this idea and got money to throw around. You got competition.

Where exactly are you getting these numbers from? An R9 280x mining Ethereum TODAY on $0.10/kwh power makes $2 per day.

Just remember each card you add over 6 multiplies the problems you will have by at least 3x
1594  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: RX 580 problem... on: June 30, 2017, 10:50:37 PM
The LEDs lighting up just mean the card is being supplied power, there are many other things that can die that will make it non functional. Your card is dead and needs to be warrantied.

1596  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: What is the best miner for Zcash (Nvidia 1070)? on: June 29, 2017, 04:24:17 PM
The best suggestion would be to do some research as the thread directly under yours answers your question.
1597  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Please stop saying ROI, its Capital Recovery. on: June 28, 2017, 09:14:52 PM
I feel like you are just posting this nonsense so you can feel better about yourself. At the end of the day it just ends up making you look like a douche. 
1598  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: EWBF's CUDA Zcash miner on: June 28, 2017, 05:06:27 PM

How are you getting 600 sol/s on the aorus?! These can easily pull 720 stock (740 w/mininal oc)



I think you are confused. A 1080 stock only does 480-500. A 1080Ti will do over 700 yes but not a regular 1080. 600 sols is a good solid number, I pull 600-610 out of my EVGA Hybrid 1080
1599  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Mining on GTX Titan X 12gb 384 bit on: June 28, 2017, 03:43:32 PM

At about 730-740 Sol/s on an overclocked and watercooled Titan X Pascal (2100MHz Core / 5600MHz Memories) for Equihash.

At stock about 680-690 Sol/s.



Those numbers sound like a stock FE 1080Ti.

I have an EVGA Hybrid water cooled 1080Ti pushing out 800 sols after overclocking.

My EVGA Hybrid 1080 (not Ti) is pushing out 610.

Are they S9s or T9s? You linked the T9 specs.
