Sixth alt coin thread I forgot to mod last thread.

[QuintLeo]

remember;  450w isn't 450w of 12V, its "n"amps of 12V;  lets be generous and say 32A.   32x12=384W.  Not enough for two cards.  And all of this is without subtracting the % overhead of efficiency (so multiply capability of PSU by 0.8 to 0.9 depending on rating: by my example 384x0.8=307.2w)

Check the PSU label.  See what it can really do.

 On most modern high-end power supplies, that 450 watts IS 450 watts of 12v capability - then the OTHER draws are pulled out of that.

 EVGA in particular works that way on most if not all of their power supplies.

 OP did mention a Delta - which I would presume is what the PCI-E power connectors to the cards themselves are running from.

That is correct. Kuching, Malaysia, the land of oversupplied real estate. $250 usd = 1600sqft. In Hong Kong (where I live), the same space cost 15-20x more lol.

 A standard 192.168.x.x privatenet offers ballpark 64,000 usable addresses - I don't think even BITMAIN needs much more than that, though I'd guess they probably use a 10.x.x.x privatenet "just in case".
 For example, I run my A2 miners on the 192.168.2.x subnet, most of the rest of my machines on the 192.168.100.x subnet, I USED to run a bunch of machines on 192.168.10.x via 10Base2 coax, I USED to run my S5 farm (and the SP20) on the 192.168.5.x subnet, and I have a DHCP address space set up for "short term usage on new machines I've not had the chance to fully configure yet" on 192.168.254.x
 My mining farm area though is starting to subdivide - each 6-rig "rack/shelf" unit will have it's own 192.168.100.xx1 through .xx6 address set, moving probably to 192.168.0.xx0 range if I get big enough eventually - makes it easy when I look at remote monitoring to say "ok, that IP is down, it is located THERE".
 I already had that implimented on the previous shelving units, each "row" with it's own .xx# and the # being the rig IN the row from top to bottom.
 I'm SURE this is not a new idea, though I've not seen it in actual usage anywhere that I can remember.

@quintleo
do you use differnt interfaces for each subnet on your router or something? or is it on the switch level?   how do you set it you can access all  the subnets from you monitoring machine?

im up to 70 machines here btw asics and rigs and already stsrting to worry that my 192.168.0.xxx 256 addresss could be a long term issue.

I also use static addresses set up on the subnet on the sonicwall router since they are all on interface x0
i do have another isp on interface x1 which i use to load balance and failover

 I set the monitoring machine to use 255.255.0.0 for a subnet mask instead of the standard 255.255.255.0
 If you're using a LINUX machine to monitor, that would be a 16 subnet mask instead of a 24.

 When I had the 192.168.10.0 subnet though, that went through a secondary machine as it DID need a different physical interface to be able to talk to the 10-Base-2 (coax) subnet.
 I handled that by having 3 net cards in the firewall/gateway/router machine, one to talk to the ISP connection, one for the 100-Base-T stuff (Gigabit was still expen$$$ive then), one for the 10-Base-2 stuff.

You recommend a good XMR pool?
citronick, what are you mining right now with nvidia rigs and amd rigs? Sorry if you said it lately, but I was busy in the last few days and couldn't keep up with you guys
Thanks

I am at xmr.nanopool.org

It has global nodes and my XMR address for Binance exchange works too.

I am parking all AMD rigs there.

For NVIDIA rigs .... temporarily at xmr.nanopool.org until I find a better home for them.

Likely moving them both to MPH eventually because I can consolidate all XMR, ZEC, etc algo-mining rewards into any coin of my choice - BTC in this case.

In my case  I think 1000 usd loss. of btc.

I am now on mmpool.org for  btc

and on mining hub pool for  about 21000 sols of cash.

[martyroz]

I've only lost $50 USD as I just changed to nicehash that day.
Back on zenminepro / supportXMR now.

Profits are amazing without nicehash! Lyra2REv2 @_@!

[VyprBTC]

Wow... and I JUST swapped to nicehash last week just to sell hash for BTC... there's goes about .1btc down the drain. WTF was I thinking using them anyways.

Got any nice eth/xmr/equihash home?
Since nicehash is down I’m not sure where to go
And honestly not sure if I wanna go back
It’s a big set back for me now

MPH is good alternative because you select your payout coin

You don't trust the newly profitable coins at the moment? Mona, Vivo, Pirl or others?
In my case, I'm keeping ati to ubiq and nvidia to bitcoin gold, hoping to go up, like bch did after a few months

Now I need to find a new SHA256 pool.  My backup has been kano but I really didn't like the small payments per block.  It made my transaction fees high.

Zpool.ca was a quick switch for me for sha256

Just go for PPS pools and get those Bitcoins rolling...

I am wondering if PPS earns more than SHA256 multi-coins pools ?

I loved zpool for my SHA256 asics....  direct BTC payout.... was pretty painless up until they had the issue with S7's not staying online.....   what a debacle that was at the beginning of last year.

zpool isn't too bad.   I have rarely had major issues with the pool, and have seen no real issues for as long as I have had a failover set for those major failure/connect/disconnect times.

but...

4000+ BTC.....


Those quacks at nicehash....  oah gawd.  How retarded can you be?

What RAM does the ONDA B250-BTC-D8P board use?

Will this work?

Looks like it should work.  I dont think the onda board has a low voltage requirement.


Now... that depends on what version of the board.


V2.0 takes DDR3......

V1.0 takes DDR4......

as per the last time i looked at the specs on ONDA's website.

google their site, go to it, google can translate it for you.  find the board, look for the V2.0 and 1.0 specs listed....

[ATCkit]

Bought DDR3 based on something I read. It didn't fit. Will try the other one.

probably mixed up thinking it was a D1800 =)

so your board must be a 1.0 =)

[bdiddle]

Hey Phil, do you have anymore of those mining boards not claimed?

My Onda D1800 arrived DOA

i think so, its looks to be more or less the 4 gb version of what i have on my onda b250 d8p ver 1, just a bit slower maybe.

i dont think so - someone correct me if i am wrong

All I see if the summary of coins being exchanged for your selected payout coin.

To see the running of the rig - I uses smOS console to see

I am so tired of chasing coins.... I think its better to just go all out with auto-algo-convert to BTC and squeeze every ounce of hash from any GPU you can find/own.
