Works fine for me. If I keep hearing this I might switch back Working fine for me as well. I did have that delay this morning for the first time, but it resolved itself within a few hours. |

It's pretty awesome to watch them pull $10+ per day on a variety of coins recently, and if one coin tanks, then it's trivial to switch over to something else and simply adjust afterburner a little.
What OS do you use to swap exotic coins? I would say the main limitation of nvOC is that it's hard to pick the exotics and stay up to date with miners. Windows mate, all the way. |

The really ODD part is that it's NVIDIA cards that are in really short supply now, AMD cards have had the pricing jump the last week but they're still AVAILABLE, Nvidia cards 1070 and up are not only price rise some but availability VERY short.
It's not just Newegg - EVGA themselves had very few "available" cards in the 1070 and up range when I checked this afternoon, NONE of the 1070 ti models except the Hybrid, 2 or 3 each on the 1070 1080 and 1080 ti.
Evga should be on track today the 4th as they are supposed to start shipping again. 2 1070 0 1070 ti 0 1080 1 and perhaps 2 1080 ti models in stock (can't tell for sure on the "members exclusive one". That's ALL that EVGA had in stock on their web page just now. 3 or 4 models TOTAL across all 4 types of GPU out of 49 models they have in that range. |

ehsminer has been popping up in threads for a while now - and quickly getting marked as a scam every time they do.
have they ever opened any kind of sale in the past? They don't even show a semi finished product . . Like it or not, the evil Bitmain L3+ is currently the best Scrypt miner out there. ... Hopefully better products can come into the market however, I hope Scrypt market will not suffer the same fate as X11 as more ASICs comes into the market. ... Tossup for second - the A4+ has been reviewed and has started shipping, and the L21 is a tossup with the L3+ Scrypt has a lot more resistance to new miners popping up - there were a lot more "l3+ unit equivilents" mining scrypt prior to Bitmain entering the scrypt market by a LOT than there were "D3 unit equivilents" mining X11. Scrypt after all had already had 2 full "generations" of ASIC made and sold for it prior to the L3, while X11 barely had ONE and that not a real big one. It says a lot that my A2 farm is still MORE profitable right now despite all the new hashrate that has deployed this year than it was a year ago at this time - X11 can't say that or even come close to saying that after Bitmain SWAMPED the market with D3 units (plus everyone else that tossed in quite a few more second-gen X11 miners). ehs has listed "preorders" on their page intermittantly - folks have mentioned ordering from them at least a couple times I vaguely remember. |

That was painful because I needed some coins to buy TRX.
Speaking of this.. I see that TRX is boosting trading volume. I'm not really into tokens, is it a good holder?  TRX is one of the best projects I've come across - and they have backing from major companies like Alibaba, Lenovo etc. Having 30m users coming on board soon is also a big deal since the mainnet is ready to go live soon. Go read the whitepaper -- its quite impressive. Announcement of partnerships with major players next week is also boosting the price. I got in at 8 cents.... it's currently at 18 cents. I am so sore I took my time to evaluate TRX too long when it was at 3 cents. Well there is no such thing as a bad profit. Good long term hold. Yeah, I was equally impressed with this project and luckily got in back on 12/27 when it was at 3.6 cents. Just bought 2k that day due to lack of time moving some BTC around, but when i saw it at that same price point 2 days later i bought about 3k more. Currently it is just about to hit 30 cents lol! so, up 10x in about a week. Gotta love this crazy market lol! |

That's ALL that EVGA had in stock on their web page just now. 3 or 4 models TOTAL across all 4 types of GPU out of 49 models they have in that range. Yeah this shortage is truly insane! And it's not just the high end cards any more. After weeks of no Vega's being available, i jumped on the 1070ti train. Was lucky to get 2 MSI Platinums from newegg at $480/each and 2 ASUS Strix Gaming for about $500/each, all but 1 arriving tomorrow. I even started trying to accumulate MSI rx 570s 8GB and luckily got what now seems like one of the last ones from newegg yesterday for $300. But now those are gone too and can't really find one for under $400, which I will not pay for that card lol. Still seem to be quite a few 570 4GB left around various stores but I am not going to double down on that since I already am running 24 470 4GB cards and need to future proof my current purchases with no less than 8GB. B&H has a lot of GPUs with "stock expected in 7-10" days but I am not going to tie up money ordering those and then have them end up not shipping at all or being way farther out than that estimate. |

I hope these don’t become as hard to get as the ASIC miners.

I love SSDs and installed probably 40 of them last year for customers in my IT business. And, my first two rigs have them. But, the two new ones I'm working on I'm throwing in some used laptop hard drives simply because I have those on hand and don't have any SSDs in stock. So other than a little bit of boot speed and shaving off a few watts of power consumption, is there any reason why SSDs are so popular in mining rigs?

My 5x1080 rig had its most profitable day yesterday after 7 months of mining-life. Over $8 per GPU. Pretty sweet. 2018 is starting pretty well so far! This weekend I'll mount the Scythe fans (with front grille - I do care about my fingers after all) to the Onda-Vega rig. Happy mining, folks! |

Virtual Memory (pagefile) is used a lot by the GPU's so its nice to have an SSD which provides considerable access speeds over traditional drives. Also they are less bulky and last longer. A lot of people use thumb drives as well, but I don't think they are meant for the heavy read/writes from pagefile use. This of course applies only to windows. |

Usually no real pagefile using occurs, I check actual HDD access via hardware monitor. All that is needed is ability to allocate huge pagefile when starting certain miners in windows. So no way it justify additional investments to SSD. The only case when SSD may be useful is windows-based multi algo switching rig aimed to hunt short surges of shitcoin profitability using extremely short switching timeframe. Though no harm to use SSD provided additional money are free :-) |

It may not mine faster, but I saved hours of tedious waiting. |

This is why an older 64Gb SSD is worth the ~$30. craigslist is a great place to get em, just make sure you bring a USB adapter, and do a check on it's SMART status; see if its begin to disable memory spaces at all..... usually they are right as rain. Just dont use a SSD for holding massive files that get re-written or overwritten a bunch. I have a graveyard of SSD boards that I have lost due to large-file handling. |
