Dear winminer team & dear miners,
just my 1081 $cents
I gave winminer a small trial period 8 days with a very light powerd system.
: Dual Xeon E5645, 16 gb ram & a single R9 270 (I swaped some cards  the first days: from nvidia quadro 4000 to R9 270x and to R9 270 all worked well)
I was always able to work on the system even that it was configured as allways on in farm mode.
only watching youtube  broke system performance.

my first resume is : Wow t y it worked well.

The winminer team is quick in bug fixing and tries to make a dummy proof simple and easy to use service.
after 8 days i saw the minimum withdraw ballance that is 10$ via btc other than noted on the website (5$).

I thought to test such a service it needs to proof if it realy gives me a profit.
The ballance was 10.81$ and after i saw the conversion rate I nearly fainted :

Amount: 10.81$ = 0.00306605 BTC
WinMiner fees: 0.00009198 BTC
Transaction fees: 0.0001 BTC
Total: 0.00287407 BTC

The actual course per btc was about 3.359,2096 $ that time

but anyhow it is a great service just installing a very easy to use  software and getting btc or USD via paypal without any further knowlledege or much todo`s.

some other points that I like to share:
security: this software could possibly kill your system software or leak other data on your system because running as admin. better use it on mining only systems.
transparency: I would like to know whom to trust that much.

my requests for enhancemd and wishes are more transparency, more and better withdraw possibillities, more stats and infos on the webpage (as you wrote before you like to keep the software interface clean), a run minimized or run as service option, the previously anounced portable version, the possibility to set temperature and fan limits (gpu temps over 80°C are not healthy for my gpu`s)

maybe a bug: it shows both CPUS with mining.. and a total for each CPU but only counts one. since  i have abut 50% systemload the  count of only one cpu is ok but it leads to wrong expectations.

while writing this I am still waiting for the  btc`s to arrive at my wallet but my sytem generated 0.13$ again (english is not my native language ;-) )



Don't forget your electricity costs...
