Sigh. Miner stopped. I really need to sort out some kind of remote access or even some stability for this Windows install.
Linux, solid as. SSH access. Totally headless. Windows, fairly flaky (seems to happen when I come to work, not when I am actually at home). Can't RDP. No SSH. Needs keyboard/mouse to do most stuff. But with Windows, you can use Trixx to undervolt the cards. So on my two cards, I am using about 100w-150w at the wall less between the two. Which is worth Windows IMO
Yeap that's what I reckon you'll get if pool is going good or poorly 1 or less. Interestingly it seems that the lower hash rate poolers are getting a better % share? Perhaps its better to have more workers per device than just the one. Any thoughts on that?
Banned from buying dollars and confronted by the fastest inflation in the Western Hemisphere, some Argentine savers are seeking refuge in bitcoin as a store of value even after the virtual currency's collapse. http://www.bloomberg.com/news/2013-...o-savers-crushed-by-cpi-argentina-credit.html
In a relatively small new mainstream market there's bound to be wild volatility until everything finds a level. People are obviously forgetting that Bitcoin is designed to be a medium of exchange. Not an investment vehicle as some seem to be treating it. Ideally one Bitcoin would be pegged 1USD to make it simple.
just teh way it runs, also I was getting lots of invalid hashes, i think it was because i wasn't connected to their strarum server, just the getwork one. Also just FYI, the ozco.in bitcoin pool has gone broke, so if you are about to start mining BTC it's probably not a good place to start. I expect people will be paid back up it will take a while as they are 700BTC short
Glad I swapped from ozco.in now - their LTC PPS pool went down and people reporting really bad luck on their DGM
I moved from ozco.in to coinotron, is a world of difference in reliability from https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=14085.msg1880493#msg1880493
Now mining on EMC, website has some nice analytics, seems stable so far, decided to ditch my LTC, have realised that I need far more bulk to trade it effectively (e.g. btc-e is charging .5 ltc to transfer out, etc) currently have 2.29045239 LTC, will trade for .05 btc
Got some hardware lying around.. My options are either: 2x Nvidia 2GB GTX 650Ti, or 1x Nvidia GTX 580 Thoughts on which option would be better? (I recognize that the answer is likely on the internet, but I'm trying to learn on the fly!)
unfortunately the nvidia cards aren't very good for it gtx 580 mh/s 150 power draw 244w amd 7770 mh/s 190 power draw 80w It's not really worth your power to use them =/
Damn, thanks though. With a budget of around $500-600, what AMD cards would you recommend? Better off going to big power or multiple cards? I am thinking about 4x Sapphire Radeon HD7770 1GB GHz Edition V2... $109 each Does memory on the card matter?
Hi rodman, lucky I've already done this experiment for you! I would recommend buying a single 7970 or 7950 while the 7770 does represent extremely good value on both the cost and power consumption fronts cooling becomes a chore the more cards you pack together. I've tried mixing 7770 + 7950 you're better off just getting a 7970
