They generally run cooler laying on the right side (exhaust facing away)
The temperatures represent lowest recorded, average, and highest recorded.
Thanks for the helpful info. Laying it on the side definitely lowered the temps. It seems like the temp readings may be for 24hr (??) intervals cus the highest recorded has definitely come down.
I've been mining DCR for a little over a week with my one miner. So far I have found 3 blocks generating 39 coins towards the pool which is significantly less than my reward amount. Wonder if I would have found these blocks if I was solo mining or is it because of the consolidated hashing power of coinmine? I'm sure with your hashing power, you're finding blocks left and right. Would it be more profitable solo mining? Granted there are no guarantees if and when you'll find a block but seems probable if indeed your/my miner found the blocks without intervention from the pool.
Up until very recently, solo miners accounted for 2nd highest (31%) of the total distributed hashing power on
https://dcrstats.com/pow. At the time of the snapshot (May 4th), Coinmine totaled 45.6%, Luxor at 13.7%. Those 3 groups accounted for 90% of the hashing power.
Then f2pool came out of nowhere now making up for 29.7%. Coinmine accounts for 39.3%, Luxor with 12.3%, solo miners now only 2.1%. This totals up to 83.4%. f2pool is Chinese pool and has a very nice UI and the pages seem to translate to English okay.
