This is a good question. I also get these differences with my 6990. I get a constant rate of 750mhash, but have seen my online worker rate around 850 at times, then at 650 etc. I guess it averages out but still its weird.

Hello, yes there are quite a few.
Some of the guys are producing decent 5/6ghash's setups. I know of a few that have ASICS etc. Its def happening to a degree.

Im just running my 6990 at 700mhz giving me about 750mhahs but being nice and quiet while doing it.

Oh and i dont pay for electricity  

Before the big drop $0.1 per BTC, i was running a setup with 2x5970's and a ASUS Ares and was getting about 2Ghash. Then i was earning about 5 BTC daily. Then the crash and sold everything... How i wish i had had some foresight and kept mining 

Also working on a few bitcoin projects. I have Safe Wallet that is available here somewhere (source code included) but am in progress with a few friends starting a much much bigger project.

Hope it works out  

Ok so i have posted up the source code for anyone interested in possibly making the app better now that its opensource :p

Ok, Source code posted in first page.

Its a VS2012 project running in .Net 4.5

I am still happy to make any changes requested or enhancements, or if others make changes im happy to host/mirror the project files for download.

That is definitely strange.

Do you ever chat on iirc channels. Its connecting to a IIRC channel, then uploading data. Thats not cool. One would think on a mac, its a bit more secure. Apparently not lol.

I hear your points, and have found a few other apps that as you say, do similar things.

Will therefore post source code tomorrow morning so the community can possibly use it mo make something cool lol.

Thanks for all the input guys.

Ok so here are some screenshots:

On the settings page, bottom right you can edit the search keywords and hit re-scan to find file matching those keywords,



then use the arrows to add the desired file to the watched list and once happy hit the save button:



then you will have those files on the front screen, and ticking or un-ticking will lock/unlock the file. Note that i am working on making this more "automatic" so you can allow a certain process to access that particular file.

I lock a portion of the file (well the whole file but the method i use is normally used to just block a section, i lock it from byte0 to the end),
so you will get this error if say you try to copy the file :

Wow, sorry for coming across as not legit. I have been mining on and off since 2011 but just never really used the forums, at all. I am new, yes but just trying to help the community.
Changed download link to come from my domain.

Also,  i didn't know that there were already applications out that do this type of thing(ok maybe because i didn't search,  ).

Anyways, onto how the program works

you run the app, it sits nicely out the way in your systray and once configured, it locks access to a selected file until you tell it to unlock access. So there is a search function, which will search for files containing a specified set of keywords (editable in the settings page), and then you can select from that list what files you want to be able to lock or not. You can also manually browse to a file and add it manually, ie not using the search function.

Once files have been selected to be "watched", on the main screen you can then use the check boxes for each file as to lock or unlock it.

Ill take some screenshots now and post them up.

I am hesitant to post up the source, as its something i have spent some decent time on and dont want to just "give" it away. My idea is once any possible issues have been sorted and some extra functionality has been added, is to actually charge for it. Posting the source would be pointless as everyone can just go and create their own version 

I would have to go with NOT.

Firstly, try register the project (ie domain or whatever is needed) in a different country if you do need to register something. This will help avoid the tax man to a degree.
Please elaborate on your "Cold Storage". If you mean a bank account offshore, you can still do that. If its a safe at your house, well again, you can still do that.

As for Hackers, well just try and be as safe as you can against them, build your solution around Anti-Hacker and you should be ok   Encryption is your friend :p

Also never have a decrypter in the same place (ie website).

Hey guys, finished the Aplha of my app.

Hi all,

So after reading all the stories about wallets being stolen etc, i thought i can assist myself and the community in the process  

So after giving it some thought, i came up with Safe Wallet, an application that locks your wallet.dat file (or any other selected file) against any form of access. This is still a very early version, so locks and unlocks are going to have to be manual, but alas, I am working on a version where you will just give access to a certain process (eg. C:\\program files\bitcoin.exe).

So I present you with the first official version:



Download : http://www.systemtech.co.za/safewallet.zip (660kb)

Source Code : http://www.systemtech.co.za/SafeWallet%20-%20Source.zip (4.35Mb)

Current version :
Go to settings and select either searched files (by default containing the word "wallet") or manually add a file. Note that searched file keywords can be changed and then hit re-scan.

Once you have files in the watched column, save and then tick them in the main screen to have them blocked. To unblock, just un-tick the box. Fairly straight forward for now, but lots of functionality coming in future releases  

This is still technically a Alpha version so for any errors, suggestions or enhancements, please either PM me here or send a mail to me : bitcoin@systemtech.co.za (yes we have developers here in South Africa  )

Enjoy

What he is describing will work perfectly as mentioned, as long as he closes down his client 100%. Ive done this a few times with my wallets.

Also just a note to the OP, would creating a new address not help you? Do you need to have a completely separate wallet?

haha, adding a good bit to the price, but you could go water cooling. Gautenteed then to not have heat issues. I can say that i did that on one of my older rigs with 2 x 5970's and it worked like a charm. Wish i didnt sell that setup >_<

Small idea, try just use cardboard( to test it) and close your box up a bit better. So the only real airflow is the fans. im thinking the top fans will make a bit of a vacuum and pull the air out while the side fans will be building up pressure. At the moment, there is just too many holes so they are pulling a good bit of air that is just sitting around the edges, not from between the cards. Basically make some pressure in there as i don't think the fans are quite working too well being so far from the heat with so many gaps. Either being closer, or making the case closed will have the side fans forcing the air in between the cards a bit more and out the top as its the only logical way to go.

Should not take you more that a hour with some scissors, tape and cardboard and you will know very quickly if it will help.

Wont hurt seeing as you have such a beaut of a case there.

Agree, Also maybe try either shrink the background image or put one with better quality up. Id rather wait a few extra second for it to load than have a pixelated background image.
Also the scrolling image with the massive background image just seems a bit too busy IMHO.

Last thing :
this section is really not easy to read, especially considering it your punch line and title.

I would agree on the 7950's being a better buy.
Also agree on the better PSU.

Just my 2c

Im  a developer, mainly in C# but have dealt with VB and C++ a tad. I have also done my fare share of Web dev and plenty on MS SQL admin and dev (including SSRS).

Kinda working on a app at the moment to block wallet theft. Read a few threads about guys getting their wallets stolen so hopefully by the end of the day, ill have a thread up with details etc on my app. Im rather excited to be helping the community
