Would be about 130kh/s on scrypt jane at current UTC nfactor, and about 65kh/s in a couple days. Wow, I was asking about a trio of R7 260x vs a single 280x a few pages back, but it looks like the 750ti could be even better. I still suspect that having three separate budget cards with 2GB dedicated memory EACH will out perform a single faster card with 2 or 3GB as n-factor increases. But the real gem is the TDP. 60 WATTS? Are you kidding me? That thing doesn't even need a 6-pin power plug. I'm tempted to build a rig with a few and see how it goes...

Thank you for all who participated and I hope you had a bit of fun. As mentioned in the first post, I will now reveal the correct words!! Unfortunately there was only 1 of 3 words picked. Here's the screenshot proof of the winners, sent to myself yesterday. First place: Atonic Second place: Triac Third place: Lion The only correct answer given of those 3 was; Lion. I choose "Lion" if that hasnt been guesed already. I really hoped all 3 words would have been picked, but since there IS only one who picked a correct answer; I will go ahead and just award First Place prize to skribnod. Congratulations Skribnod!!!! You win 10 UTC!!Please PM your UTC address for payment and I'll send the 10 UTC your way. Thanks again to everyone for trying the quiz! I hope to do this again in about a week; if everyone would like. However I'll come up with something new / different for a quiz. And of course; Always about community, always about Ultracoin. ![Wink](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/wink.gif)

What is better as nfactor keeps rising, gpu or cpu???that is the question. Unless profit is there it seems pointless to dedicate high end gpu's to this project but should one go with cheaper more efficient gpu or invest in a cpu farm???

10 UTC sent. you should have it confirmed now. Congratulations again! Let me know that you got the UTC, if you could.

So if i get the 750 and put it in an old computer, would i still get the same hash rate? Or does it depend more on the computer specs?

@klinmaining
Welcome to NFactor. Increases the amount of required memory to complete the calculations, hence the decrease in hash. Its all relative, though, so you're not out of the game just yet.

So would the 290x 8gb card be better for mining this after nfactor?
ps can't sleep without knowing whats happened to my coins.

you should be fine normally the 16x slot is the fastest card the rest of our fully populated slots are running only at 1x speed not much speed difference between them normally 1x card = 16x speed 2x cards = 8x speed each 4x cards first slot 8x the rest 4x more cards first slot 4x the rest 1x I think depends on what the mobo is some have around 30x combined actually its kind of amazed me the difference between the uncrippled slot and the other slots I always get higher accepted ( around 2x ) from the GPU in first slot then the rest and only a slight kh/s drop on the other cards @ 1x

For starters, no need to run the intensity so high. Most people have been doing well at 12. Here's my config for a Sapphire R9 280X: --scrypt-jane --sj-nfmin 4 --sj-nfmax 30 --sj-time 1388361600 -I 12 --gpu-engine 1150 --gpu-memclock 1250 -w 256 -g 2 --auto-fan --temp-target 70 --temp-overheat 80 --temp-cutoff 85 --shaders 2048 This nets me around 320KHs at a cool 60C. By dropping the intensity, your card will keep cool even at a higher engine clock.

I'm tempted to build a rig with a few and see how it goes... my only concern is I am wanting separate power to the video card :S tho i guess a fully loaded ti750 PC would run with 650 watt PSU 6x 70 watts GPU = 420 + 200 watt mobo / reserve = 620 5~10% PSU breathing space comes to around 650~700watts 1.8 MHS / 700watts under 380 watts / MH fully loaded r9 290 6x300 watts = 1800 + 200 watt mobo / reserve = 2000watts 5~10% PSU breathing space comes to around 2200 watts 5.4 MH/s / 2200 watts 410 watts / MHS

By dropping the intensity, your card will keep cool even at a higher engine clock. He is using a 290 card. The -g 2 will work, but doesn't work as well as single thread. And Intensity should be 19 after the last N change. Only 280 / 7970 run optimal with I 12 and 2 threads. klinmaining: As said above, trying turning your intensity down. I'd start with 15 on both cards and try to up each one to 19 and see if you make it. How much system ram do you have as well?

That was before the last Nfactor increase. Now hashrates are about half which is exactly why ~300 is perfectly fine, for the 280X at least.
On a side note, if anybody has an online business for selling goods/services in exchange for UTC, shoot me a PM. As I mentioned a few pages back, I am putting together a Shopping page for the website. Thank you in advance!
Edit: Thanks for the clarification cointradero!

You can't compare hashrates with something you found on page 85 of this thread with hashrates today. They will change again in a couple days. At that point, they will be even lower.
