Antminer E3 not mining ETC after new Epoch

[connectCORRECT]

Of course my E3 also does not mined ETC. But, when I still mined GPU 380 2GB so 2 (??) years ago, so after a change in the epoch when the 2GB GPU was not enough. But it was enough to swap only one for 4GB in the rig, the others was just 2GB, and the whole rig was mined at full power for ETC. Unfortunately, it is probably not possible to do some trick in E3....

And I think that even though there is 4GB of memory per module in E3, maybe it uses a bit of memory outside and that's why the problem is now when the DAG ETC is 3,57GB. This is similar to having a 4GB Flashdisk and using only 95% max.

Can we mine on another coin besides ETH or ETC? Like Ubiq?

There is alot of coins to mine out there however the profitability is much lower. Go to www.whattomine.com and put in 180MH/s and 800Watts. Also put in your power bill, assume $0.10/kwh.

So with ETH and ETC you earn a profit of $1.45 a day or so. If you mine another other coin that those then the max profit you make is $0.15 with QuarkChain. Every other coin is a loss. Maybe if your power is very cheap like $0.05 kwh you can make something decent but barely.

Reason why is that many GPU <4GB are probably mining those coins also since they can't mine ETH or ETC.

I need anything with a bitmain E3 probe if changing to Claymore version 15 can mine additional time, up to  384 epoch.
Please probe and repply.

Bitmain just relased new firmware for E3 which will fix mining problems for some time (till October). I already sold mine

Pfff, not sure that was mistake. I can't get the firmware to load across 5, E3s. Upload or SD cards.

I find it pretty bad how bitmain replied a few months ago that there was nothing you can do and E3 wouldn't be able to continue mining, and yet they actually made a firmware release.

So many people probably sold theirs really cheap even though they did some change and you can mine all the way until Oct 2020. Oh well, its too bad because I was wondering what the hashrate decrease would of been to find out exactly how many of these E3 they produced.

Dear Kevin Vercauteren,

Thanks for your consultation!

Sorry for your inconvenience we got the confirm from technical department
E3 miner is a 4G video card. E3 is related to eth algorithm, and DDR capacity is up to the upper limit, so E3 will not be able to continue mining.
the meaning is E3 only can mine to January 2020, then will not mine again

Hello. I am overclocking Antminer E3 machines but I cannot see any changes in the hash rates. Do you know why? Running 5.4.0. Thanks!
