If it has a DVI-I connector, you can use the dummy plug.

Simple dummy plug:

http://www.overclock.net/t/384733/the-30-second-dummy-plug

I learned it from here, myself. Works perfectly.

Not all cards have a DVI-I connector, offering only DVI-D connectors, so you are wrong - a dvi/vga dummy plug will not work.  R9 290s do not work with those dummy plugs, and frankly, those 30sec dummy plugs are now pointless and stupid (modern drivers don't need them)

With 290s, some mobo's won't post without a monitor attached. Easiest solutions are attach a monitor, attach an hdmi switch, and buy a DP to VGA adapter (with active chip) and make a dummy plug with that.

can you please give me the products links that i need?

This is from the last 2 pages, SERIOUSLY? wtf does this have anything to do with this pool? This just pollutes the thread. Please make another thread to have your orgy.

And your post just pollutes it more... If we're talking about mining on wafflepool, that it's not exactly off-topic.  How about you go bitch somewhere else?

I got this 5.24 mhs rig, it runs normally smoothly, but when i mine on Wafflepool it freezes once or twice every 24 hours. Processes are still running but it does not produce shares and becomes unaccessible via Teamviewer.

I suspect that this behaviour occurs when there is changes, maintenace or other going on at the server.
Recently when mr. Poolwaffle was out of town for couple of days, i witnessed less such behaviour.

So has anyone experienced similar behaviour while mining on Wafflepool?

Is there a particular setting specific to this pool that is off and i have missed it?

Heres the config file from sgminer:

...

I experienced something similar with one of my rigs. It would mine fine for a few hours and then stop submitting shares. I use Chrome Remote Desktop and never had a problem. My suggestion - use CGwatcher and set it to restart the miner if there are no submitted shares in several minutes. I have mine set to restart the miner if no shares are submitted in 2 minutes. Working well so far.

Sorry i forgot to mention, i have CGWatcher watching, but apparently it either dies or gets false data from sgminer when this issue happens.
When freeze happens there is no log, event or anything related to the issue form either miner, watcher or operating system.

This is happening only when mining at WP.

Norrps pointless having GPU-memclock, GPU-core and GPU-diff, take out the diff line.
Also auto-GPU too, shaders and why are fans set to 0-0 is is it watercooled? You are setting a fan speed range there but then a temp target too, you have a whole bunch of conflicting settings in that file.

Also auto-GPU too.

So is variable gpu/memory speed bad thing to use while mining here? Im using it to cool down the rig a little when room temp rises.

I will try it without auto-gpu and memdiff, thanks for input.

No it's ok, but temp target will do the same thing if you set a range, it's fine you're just kinda duplicating things a little.

Are you using the new cgminer variance that has xintensity?

Im using sgminer 4.1.0, cgminer wouldnt let me run cards with different thread counts.
I have 4x R9 290 and 2x R9 280X all on the same mb and running in one miner instance.

Sometimes when room gets really hot fans cant keep up cooling so reducing clock speeds seemed appropriate.
All cards are overclocked, some cards undervolted, others slightly overvolted. 290's are running 940khs each and 280x are doing 760 khs each.

US.EAST wont connect with my miner, had to switch over to US.WEST ....anybody else ?

[Datalore1]

US.EAST wont connect with my miner, had to switch over to US.WEST ....anybody else ?

All four of my miners are plugging away on east.

[diwskwmx]

US.EAST wont connect with my miner, had to switch over to US.WEST ....anybody else ?

No issues here with useast

[mr.maxout]

Well mine were chugging along just fine till i had to restart the miner, then they wouldnt connect......unless i switched over to the west server

[anaxagorasbc]

I'm having the exact same problem.  Eventually my miners will connect to east after about 45 seconds.  And the miners already connected to east have no problem.  But i'm trying to tune one of my miners and every time i restart it, it takes about 45 seconds to connect.

[mr.maxout]

I'm thinking server capacity is at its limit on the east server....hence the upgrades that waffle was talking about scheduled for tomorrow!!!

Coinmarkinet.io is up but the trading still "paused".

Withdraw coins that can be traded elsewhere!

Because the speed matters [but being up doesn't].

I agree with haploid23 - we come here to find out what is going on with WafflePool.  There are a 1000 other threads dealing with tuning Scrypt based miners which are more appropriate.  Keep this up and it'll turn in to the MiddleCoin thread.

I agree with this too.
Can we talk about this instead ?

Do you think those performances are temporary ?
Electricity will be soon more expensive than BTC earnt (with the current value of course...)

[phzi]

Profits depends on the altcoin markets, which have taken a severe hit lately.  I personally doubt we will see .01BTC/MH averages again.

dogecoin is far below ltc profit(90%)
why pool still mining doge now

and we are getting 0.00527504
there is something wrong with this new switcher
