Anybody mining anything other than XCN?
Is it worth the effort?! last time I checked XCN was not at top of profitability?

child isn't that bad, i think it's a little more profitable than xcn Anybody mining anything other than XCN?
nope... but if you want to mine a coin all for yourself (not caring about profitability... can't have everything ) whirlcoin or talkcoin are good whirlcoin is another victim of this bad era, i still dream that it will take off

I still have my bounty... few weeks ago, I was doing some test on whirlpool algo on suprnova, got a pm from a guy wanting to know if I was doing some test (or else...) ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif) and later on, I discovered that I was owning half of the net hashrate (I switched to solo, was getting a block per minute or worst... )

As I promised, X11 mining on the 2x970+2x750Ti 24/7 setup, closed case: subir fotos onlineCheers Not bad, 6MHash/s, that's what I get with my 780ti

those are stock? i am seriously considering an SLI on the 970's right now, i think a 3 way sli on 970's will have more power then sli 980's djm, when your 980's come in, would you mind doing a full 3DMark run with them SLi'd for me please? the same as above to compare with Not bad, 6MHash/s, that's what I get with my 780ti
Yeh and lower power usage aswell. not even utilising compute 5.2 yet either

I am hoping for a drop down to £200 each for Christmas, so a drop of ~£60, that would make a 3 way sli just a little more then a single 980 lol i know my motherboard currently supports 3 way sli, in 2.0 x16 x16 x4 lol

I intend to, then ramp up the overclocks. my 780 doesn't ever hit 45'c with the pump on its lowest setting so 3 970's should watercool easily

I have 2x Palit GTX 970 delivered yesterday, not impressed so far, think they might be going for a return trip back up the river in a couple of weeks if nobody works any magic.
I am getting the following rates, per card, using driver 344.16, with +200gpu & +200mem
XCN 8mh XMR 440h X13 4.8mh Scrypt Jane 6KH
Not tried BBR yet cause can't get 970's to work with Kopiemtu
System is drawing aprox 380w (not inc display) at wall, AMD quad core cpu so the 970's are using aprox 100w per card.

what results are you comparing them against to not be impressed? the algo's are not optimised yet, everyone knows that. You pay the same for a 970 as you would have fr 2 750ti's at launch anything over double performance is an improvement, and at double you have saved density

I don't think I'm quite getting double the 750ti's yet. Comparing to my 750ti's, for a few more ££'s I could get 3x 750ti's for every 970. I was hoping for the 970 performance to be at least 2x that of the 750ti's. Will wait patiently for optimisations. I have been tinkering with the look up gap whilst mining scrypt Jane, so can see there is loads of room for improvement.

Regarding density, there are now single slot GT 750 and 750 TI cards. So one can put 5 of these onto one mainboard without using any risers. These rigs will then fit into more compact cases.

850watt psu for 2 gtx980 and 1 780ti doable ? (with a i7-3770 which doesn't use lots of power)
