Pool issues (SLush, BTC Guild...)

[latukka]

I've been using Slush pool for a while, but have to occasionally jump to other pools because od DDoS attacs. I tried using BTC Guild, but I'm having problems like this:

Post#1184 Looking at my logs, the last maybe hour or so I've gotten idle miners every 2-3 minutes...

1# What is the problem?

2# How can I setup my GUIMiner to start mining at another pool when priority 1. pool is attacked? I've tried mining two pools simultaneously, but it eats my MH/s ~10-20 units.

To be honest, I don't see a problem in your picture.
The temperatures are fine (graphic cards are able to get 70°C)
On the other hand, looking at the patern of the graphic your GPU tends to go immediately stop.

My guess: Putting the graphics together I think your computer stops the GPU usage as soon as the temperature gets to 60°C and starts again under the temperature of 50°C.
I thought that you could highten this temperature.
Note that this is just speculation...

I've been able to mine constantly at Slush pool with 100% GPU and 72°C temperature. I think the problem is at BTC Guild.

I'm having the same problem using BTCGuild (http://forum.bitcoin.org/index.php?topic=16221.0).

I have the same problem too. The problem comes from BTC Guild definitely.

Kind of unrelated, but a GPU can get to 110°C before it gets perminatly damaged. I've ran 570's and 580's folding for months at 80c, no damage what so ever. I would say the highest temperature a GPU should hit for sustained use is 85.
