Nobody cares about Maxcoin in this threat anymore?
Diff has increased 2folds and the price 4folds as well.
Mine this while it is still possible, my cudaminer folks, my prediction is it will explode again soon.
I was able to mine 1k Maxcoin in few days when the price so low and the diff low as well. I mined and won't sell a single coin.
Yesterday when the price was increased 5folds I sold a few coins to cover my lost in the last few days. Keep the rest for the next explodes.
these price hikes are usually called pump and dump :-) Huge market manipulation by a few heavyweights (whales)... And crazy volume!!! Great for trading. |

now it doesnt crush but it doesn't validate with the cpu hmm (and yes i am at stock ;P) thanks btw!
EDIT 1: My bad I forgot to put the MRC instead of YAC... Is 315 khps for the gtx 780?
EDIT 2: sorry again I mean 157 khps (I use 2 gtx 780)
I am getting about 480khash/s with my Asus GTX 780 (Factory overclock), so I am sure you can get more out of yours. Kernel config: -l T12x24 or T24x24 (Latest being a bit more screen laggy) Thanks...gonna try that. Forgot mrc was N 9 for a sec xD |

why when i try to run a scrypt jane bat on the 2/4 cuda it crashes? Can anyone share his microcoin bat for GTX 780? :s thanks in advance!
-s 10 --algo=scrypt-jane:YAC -d gtx780 -i 0 -C 2 -b 8192 -L 6 -l t12x32 Try it at stock clocks first... |

Take your time...that Nan guy's miner is pretty darn good for AMD it seems, but I wouldn't be surprised if his 'cpm' are not realistic. 280X cards are pulling 3375 with two instances per card and a slight oc. That's better than an r9 290 or a GTX Titan.
It's in my to-do list. Currently stratum is giving me lots of head aches because of being so poorly documented and cgminer's source code is so ugly that I can't read it lol, I hear ya...yet that kolivas dude raked millions in BTC donations, meh |

3 ASUS ROG MARS cards are ordered. This should be close to 20 kHash/s YAC mining power - all on one mainboard.
I'm curious to see what your results will be with those as I'm currently experimenting with Yacoin and GTX760's (one 2gb and one 4gb). I'm one bad decision away from dropping some cash and putting a proper rig together. I have 6 slots...should be able to run 6 r7 240s on my board. But yeah, those Mars look amazing! |

Still holding and keeping an eye on Yacoin. =)
What was the fork fixing/ changing?
It was a tweak to adjust the trust for chains of POS blocks to attempt to prevent orphaning of POW blocks. I setup your minerd but am unsure which to use for amd 960t? Both athlon-fx and nocona work but I get horribly low kh/s. Which version should I use for the Zosma and what kh/s should I expect? Also am I just wasting electric cpu mining on this coin now that it is gpu capable? Whichever version works and gives you the highest hashes per second... http://yacoinwiki.tk/index.php/Mining_Hardware_Comparison is the comparison page for hardware. Even a low end GPU's gives better performance per watt than CPUs, but mine with it if ya got it and want to. YAC is highly profitable if you know what hardware excels at it and how to maximize what you've got. I keep no secrets, but I've put a lot of time and effort into my configurations and updates to the software to cope with the high N factor, and I'm going to reap those rewards now. It's well deserved bro...I have yet to tip you and cbuchner1. |

Also am I just wasting electric cpu mining on this coin now that it is gpu capable? It's not too profitable but it's still decent for cpu. Better than the rest, right now. What gpus do you have? Even low end cards mine yac decently. |

is anyone mining max right now? how much more profitable than doge or yac with these prices?
I don't think MAX is profitable for us nVidia miners anymore, YAC is pretty good even though it lowered a bit, Doge IDK, I am mining microCoins: I must say the high numbers are addicting  and now? haha just doubled again mcxnow.comMight be good...I get 203mh/s out of my 780, and that would net me 0,013btc/day. Yac is worse than that right now I think, but tdp might go higher. EDIT: 204w vs 264w...not too shabby. |

So my troubles with Microcoin wallet persists and now also includes Yacoin wallet. They crash before they start. Quark and Maxcoin wallets seems to work though. Must be related to something I have installed. Like Microsoft c++ redist, .net framework or some stuff.  I normally fix those deleting everything but the wallet.dat and letting it redownload blocks. - I'm mining Altcoin (lol), gonna try solo now...random rewards, scrypt:2048 algo. Fun stuff, trades at https://www.newaltex.com/ |

What are you mining with keccak? I guess MaxCoin time is over with this diff. Also, any notable Coin where my gtx770 could be atleast competitive to radeons(so i can earn any money)?  Cheers Scrypt-jane, I'd say Ultracoin, Microcoin or Yacoin (my favorite). |

@carly200
i made accurate counts.
results for R9 280x are very different from the results of 7950.
in my counts, 7950 is preferable to run undervolt like my own, if day profit is under 11.09$ per Mhs
instead, for R9 280x is preferable to run undervolt only if profit day is below 6.69$ per Mhs
for this counts i use this data:
hd 7950 (mine) undervolted @ 520 khs per 135w, overclocked @620khs per 275w
R9 280x (the one of a friend rig) overclocked @760khs per 308w, undervolted @575khs per 153w (take data from the "save money 7970 thread" here)
costs of power: 0.2443 euro kWh. (i pay this in Italy)
A 7950 draws 160w undervolted at 0.962v...and pulling 660-700kh/s with an optimized bin file and sgminer. You should read this thread: https://litecointalk.org/index.php?topic=12369.0i know "theStilt" thread. i have optimized CL file for sgminer 4.0.0 i not use for now special bios whit mem optimized by theStilt because i just use memclock @800 which is a right optimized step. i will try to run my 7950 at 660/700 (my max was 630) and i will try those bios, if really consumption is 160w, that is wery better than my actual setup. i will see and report. I've tried it and 620kh/s was at 160w with 0.962v. 660-700 would make it draw slightly more, but it will still be around 180w max. I'm in the process of switching to R7 240 4GB cards, and some nvidia stuff for yacoin, ultracoin and variable N factor coin mining (scrypt asics will make the old school radeons useless...they are not so good at scrypt-jane and draw 10x the power the r7 240 draws...) At the wall I get 20% more cause of the psu btw. |

Quick question: can I download a different cgminer for say maxcoin or vertcoin and run it on this Os?
Yes; just place it under the /mining directory on the root of your CD/iso Thanks a lot! Will try some vertcoin mining with it and post back with results. |

If we get some coins that are 64 bit based, with some doublelongs in the code, I'd say Nvidia has good potential.
uint64_t like Keccak? (unsigned long long int) ... forget it. AMD does 400 MHash/s. nVidia peaks at 180 MHash/s it's sad... but hey, whoever comes first... Christian Don't worry guys...memory hard algos are where it's at, and it's where nvidia really shines. I'm looking forward to the Maxwell low power cards, if they come up with a compute 4.0 or even a 3.5 part with 4gb buffer and low number of shaders that outperforms the R7 240 4GB I've found my ideal card for yac. |

Harder to get MRC and the price still the same. Gonna hold it for a while and it will explode like VTC. Very nice coins.
Btw who still mining Maxcoin right now?
I bought some VTC at 0.005 and now they're at 0.004. Hmm MRC: my stash is at 32 millions now. Good that I mined them while they were still easy  Maxcoin: don't even mention... This currency is done for. Ah, the memories of good times. Christian Christian, should I sell? Got 10 of them. :-) Maxcoins that is... I think so...I dump mine, at or over 0.001. |

Here's some yacoin figures for you, figured they'd interest you since power is so expensive there:
Model: Sapphire R7 240
Stream Processors: 320
Memory: 4GB
Clock (MHz) : 1100
Memory Clock (MHz): 1000
TDP: 25w
kH/s: 2.78
Software: YACMiner 3.4.0
Flags: --worksize 128 -g 2 --lookup-gap 2 -R 640 --thread-concurrency 24576
Nfactor: 14
Power usage measured at wall
Estimated profitability: 186,5 Yac per day (0,005 BTC)

Anyone here in my thread mining not just for fun, but seriously for profit as well? Having a farms of AMD cards in your garage or basement? nVidia is looking to get in touch with miners to interview them about their expectations for mining related products. Just be aware that you would be helping nVidia with your information and not your favorite GPU manufacturer AMD PM me with a brief summary of what you're mining and how and I can get you in touch. I work managing mining farms, so yeah, that would interest me. Beating the R7 240 4GB 2.8kh/s perf at n factor 14 would be interesting, with lower power, whilst also being able to mine lower n factor coins. The 780 is an amazing card but if they could come up with a card with less non essential parts for mining (ROPs for instance) it would be really awesome, since the power efficiency of the green cards and their slightly lower integer performance is what holds them back. |

Which ones? I wanna try a GT 640 4GB out...high N factor might be big soon-ish (it already kinda is, with the upcoming scrypt asics).
I'm mining ultracoin at 415kh/s, you think MRC is a better choice?
a GT 640 4GB (Compute 3.0) should do 1.6 kHash/s for Yacoin and N-factor 14 coins. I was recently able to get four cheap GT635 OEM cards with 1GB DDR5 memory (Compute 3.5) from ebay and with -L 2 they also manage respectable 1.3 kHash/s with very low power draw. I currently have no idea about the exact profitability of various coins. I am a programmer, not a daytrader Christian No prob...was asking mainly from the performance standpoint :p So, pretty low, seems like R7 240 4GB would be a better choice, unless you can get higher hash with higher L values. Gonna have to test it myself  Edit: we need a compute 3.5 card with 4gb and gddr5 ram...maybe the new Maxwell cards, GT 750 and 750ti. hmmm |

Do all those GPUS pay for themselves without having a hyped coin like MaxCoin to mine?
not as fast as AMD cards but yes, they pay 2x-3x the electricity costs in Germany. Which ones? I wanna try a GT 640 4GB out...high N factor might be big soon-ish (it already kinda is, with the upcoming scrypt asics). I'm mining ultracoin at 415kh/s, you think MRC is a better choice? |

i have a "watt meter" on the wall. now with browser open and downloading, wattmeter sign a consumption of 203w. my desktop on idle sign normally 65w so 203-65=138w. it must be said that i have a PSU corsair VS650 without any certification. so i think that my new rig i will start to buid tomorrow, whit a PSU 80+ gold, will use a few less power than this, i estimate 4 or 5% less. here, in Italy, i pay power 0.2443 euro kWh, it's about 0.3322$ per kWh. saving power is my only way to maximize my profit. GPU Sapphire HD7950 OC (11196-19-20g)  my "watt meter"  If that's your main concern, head to the yacminer thread and look at thirtybird's improved yacminer, and his R7 240 4GB results...those things make something like 0.00765btc/day whilst not even using a pci-e connector (75w or less, from the slot). |
