Jackit, can you explain this part on your stratum difficulty test? Static stratum diff set to 40 (~Mh/s / 2), if you're running 12 1080ti, I would have thought your mh/s would be closer to ~228 mh/s? I'm trying to gauge my difficulty setting for my config on 8x 1080ti and was wondering, thanks.

sure.. the 12 GPU rig is split into three instances/groupings of 4 GPUs each, with the -d flag
This allows me to test three miners simultaneously.

Each instance/grouping hashes somewhere between 70-80MH/s on average. I didn't want to set the diff too low so I just went with 80MH/s / 2 = 40

That's what I figured, I appreciate the explanation. I am a silent observer of your work, I love it, I think it's a big plus to the mining community. I am a financial analyst by profession and I love the level of detail you provide so thank you for all that you do..  Smiley

.......

Perhaps you have a test using one of the miners for different operating systems Windows vs. Linux?

Why won't you set the diff too low, is there a disadvantage?

Significantly deflated EXE size versus normal ccminer, can this do skunk and tribus?  Those run faster on the fatter 43mb ones.
gitmod 4a the 8MB kind is messed up; probably should recompile
oh it cant take i 21.5 now, it maxes at i 21.0625
It is compressed using MPRESS2, alexis 1.0 under UPX is 4MB.

With different Rigs - have I to set the value for difficulty for each Rig?

Example:
Rig 1: 40 MH/s -> d=20
Rig 2: 65 MH/s -> d=32.5
Rig 3: 35 MH/s -> d=17.5

or the full account?
d = 70?

Why is that important? As long as it's profitable, I mine at 100 pl because otherwise I don't earn as much as I could. Why leave capacity unused, even if it is somewhat less profitable above 80 pl...

Some people like to factor in cost in electricity. But if that coin goes from $0.05 to $10, that cost savings actually hurts you.  I'm with you on running it at most optimal point of hash rate instead of hash per kwh.  But for each there own, so I ain't bashing opinions on savings.

Hi, people here are not so good with answer on questions so I have to ask on the same question a second time,
so I have also mining rigs and I have two, each have 40 mh/s so difficulty must be 20 for each rig or 40 for 1 account ?? I thing that is realy good question Huh? so pls for answer, thanks

If you are using a stratum-proxy : d=40.
If not, each rig must ask his own stratum difficulty.

Note that some pool have minimum stratum difficulty (15 for ravenminer.com) and others ignore this parameter.

So if I understand right stratum difficulty (d=) must be manualy se on 40 for each rig ? thanks

Well, a lot of home miner are limited global power wise more than investment wise, so it can make sense to have best efficiency per card.

In fact i'm not sure if you know what is a stratum-proxy. It's a software somewhere on your network between your rigs and the pool. It's dispatching work to your rigs and concentrating shares to the pool.

We will assume that you don't use this kind of stuff, so you should set each rig password with d=20.

Absolutely agree! Depending on the electricity cost, everyone should decide for his rigs what is best - max power or balanced Hash/Kwh.
The difference between $0.1/KwH and $1/KwH is kinda bothering when looking for profit.

JackIT, do you have performed tests based on different components of the GPUs?

I want to know the result on how performs one and the same technology but with different specifications.
And if anyone can perform such test, that would be very helpful.

2 GPUs, with different specifications:

                         Dual GTX1060-O3G                     Dual GTX1060-O6G
GPU/Boost:        1594MHz/1809MHz                      1594MHz/1809MHz
RAM:                 3GB GDDR5/192bit 8008MHz        6GB GDDR5/192bit 8008MHz

* Obviously, the GPU/Boost is the same for both GPUs, would that mean same speed of mining?
* If all parameters are identical with exception of the RAM (3GB & 6GB), how would that reflect to the mining?

As of memory is not really a bottleneck for X16r, it shouldn't be noticeable.
There is no DAG things in X16r so memory capacity doesn't impact performance (like it does/did with ETH).
You will probably see different result if you cannot apply same OC on both cards (due to opposite ASIC quality).
