[XMR] What Hardware and Software do you use to mine the MONERO XMR

[lexele]

Tried a different approach: lower mem clock but with strap from 1375 mem clock. Reached 800h/s cc 1200 / mc 2025.
Not stable yet.

Hi guys. i have found this gpu server. is it worth to mine with it?
how we can how much H/s each CUDA core generate?

Those are specialized GPU, not the GPU used in mining-farm.
You need to test all of them but I doubt that they are cost effective.
You have the same on Amazon server, it's not new.

that's with the 470 OC, right?

Impressive. My RX 480 (1x sapphire reference, 2x sapphire dual-x OC) all deliver 630H/s stock.

The dual-x I got to ~690H/s with cc 1400@1200mv, mc 2100@1000mv

Do you somehow match up the claymore miner -cclock and -mclock settings or what do you mean with "strap from 1375 mem clock"?

I have the sapphire reference. I modded the bios with polaris bios editor-> core clock, mem clock and mem timings (the straps). Most of people use the 1500 mhz strap and copy it to higher mem clock straps. I found that for my card 1375 memory strap is best. it's stable at mclock 2010 => 780h/s.
with nitro cards you should be able to go higher , the mem is better( although the latest nitro 4GB comes with elpida memory instead of samsung and is not supported yet by polaris editor).
for undervolting you have to use TRixx or wattman or other. I run at core voltage 825 mV and mem controler 981mV. you should go way ver 800H/s. I'm looking forward to see your results.

thanks man! Now I'm getting somewhere

tuned everything back to stock settings, fetched the bios from the dual-x 480 and copied over the 1500mhz mem straps to the higher clocks as you suggested. one reboot later, the flashed card does 807h/s@2000mhz memclock as opposed to 630h/s stock @2000mhz memclock...

I will toy around a bit more with this

[frediiii]

OK, so those previous settings gave 800h/s but also produced invalid shares.

after some testing, I'm now at stable 775h/s which will have to do for now, as time testing is time not mining

CPU 1175@900mv
VRM 2060@990mv

Memstrap from 1500 copied over all the way to 2000

This now uses less energy than the default settings. The cards stay so cool the fans are now cutting out to 0rpm

GPU temp ~55°C

[lexele]

I'm stuck at 778H/s too. my mem is not stable over 2010... that's why I use 1375 strap.

[Hueristic]

LOL, system came out of hibernation and my secondary card was dead so I was like "Great" I have an excuse to upgrade to a decent miner (I sold all my dedicated gpu's 6 months ago) but on reboot it came back. LOL first time I was ever happy a card died and it really didn't!

You might use higher memory strap to get more stable mining of the Monero. If it is too high, it is not so stable.

It's very stable at that mark, run it for a week flawlessly with expected revenue.

[shakeandbake]

I am currently running 36 16-core opterons and a few GPU's I had laying around. Churns out about 18KH/s edit: sometimes hits 20-22KH

Hy there,

i find it rather interesting, what hardware can and actually is used to mine the XMR.
Post whatever you like, if you own a farm or if you stress your Desktop to get a buck out of it.

It would be helpful to get a dedicated list of used hardware, miningspeed, used Software, used wattage and what you are going to do with your mined XMR´s (only if you want us to know)

I am looking forward to a nice thread with lot´s of contributors! Maybe we can build a POLL later  

Currently i run following HARDWARE and SOFTWARE

MAINBOARD -> Asrock 960GM-VGS3 FX 760G RGVSM
VENT -> Alpenföhn "Brocken Eco"
CPU -> AMD FX-8320E 3200 AM3+ BOX -> supports AES-NI
RAM 2 Rigs -> D3 8GB 1600-11 NT GSK
PSU -> 300WATT
OS -> Ubuntu 14.04LTS Server 64bit

I am currently solomining with bitmonerod on 4 cores with about 160H/s
The remaining 4 cores are mining with a modded WOLF cpuminer-multi from sammy007 at minexmr.com with an average of 160H/s.
The system is running stable and due to the big vent at the CPU you here almost nothing, i can recommend the use of it!

I am planning to use a GPU, GIGABYTE GeForce GTX 970 Mini, to mount it into the ATX tower and use with tsivs GPU miner and check out what i can get out of the 145watts  

Kind regards,
elrippo

Gpu mining xmr is not very profitable.
The best gpu miner is Claymore for AMD : about 800h/s for a R9 290X (Hynix memory).
There is a private nvidia miner for maxwell nvidia cards (sp_ ccminer but not the public one) : but a GTX 980 has less hashrate with this miner than Claymore and a R9 280X...
 

how much XMR are you earning every block? and how many hours can the GPU to process one block?
I can probably try buying all these hard ware if i see i can earn sufficient amount thru it. I've read about that Claymore thread from time to time.

Hello I am new to all of this. but I am confused. Even if you dont pay for electricity and already have a computer that can mine at 800 H/S thats only like $13 USD per week. Is that correct? $13 US Dollars per week? whats the point if you have to dedicate a whole computer to do nothing but mine for 24 hours per day just to get $13 per week? Am I missing something?

Pro-miners put six cards per motherboard and have thousands of them.

[Warduke]

so six cards per board is expensive and thats only what? maybe $80 per week? sorry I dont think any one has thousands of PCs mining in their house.

No of course they don't mine in their house, they have factories.

Cmon guy, Im talking about normal people here who mine, not Chinese mining factories run by companies or people with investors. Im talking Monero mining, Im trying to understand how is it possible to make any real money mining Monero coins? If a single person cant mine at least $300 per week minimum, I dont see what is the point spending money, time and resources mining.

[lexele]

unless you have a big house and free electricity, you cannot.
