Any difference in SSD compared to HDD in mining, (I don't care about slow loading of the system) ?

No difference for mining

Re: Are you dual mining or not?

So just a quick survery, if you're mining eth/etc/expanse, are you dual mining? What are you mining with it? Do you think it's worth it, and what's your hashrates?

Yes I dual mine, but I focus on the less profitable coins to get in while the difficulty is low  Wink

Hash rates wise, well this depends on your hardware, your tweaks and your personal settings. I'm afraid there's no substitute for methodical testing and tweaking to find the sweet-spot for your hardware.

Can You send me Your exact settings?

My current settings (more tweaking to be done later after work Grin) are:

-96mV
0% power change
1300 GPU clock
2200 GPU memory

Everything else is stock including the BIOS

Still experimenting with mine, however I can confirm even at -96 mV it is stable and happy.

Additionally, the reduced voltage means the GPU can hit higher speeds which (although less important than memory speeds) still makes a difference.

Re: Help needed with RX 480 - not working in second machine

Never mind, some problem with signature maybe this patcher fix all these problems. Only there are cons, but not for mining.
If you don't want this just run again the patcher or uninstall drivers and install new one it will over write.

What are the cons? I'm only using this machine for mining.

[SOLVED] Help needed with RX 480 - not working in second machine
by

on 24/05/2017, 13:24:37 UTC
Hi guys,

I've been running an RX480 in one machine flawlessly for close to a year. Last night I swapped it out with a 580 (still need to tweak the memory timings Roll Eyes) but everything is fine there.

However I took the 480 and put it in to an older machine (XPS420) so I could continue mining with it. The XPS420 machine I previously was using for CPU mining along with an HD 4870 (very old card now) which was just sitting there not mining (but working correctly).

I am completely unable to install the 480 in this second machine.

I've done a clean install of Windows 10 x64 using the latest version from the Microsoft website before starting.

Under device manager, the 480 appears with a yellow exclamation mark with the error 'Windows has stopped this device because it has reported problems. (Code 43)'.

  • I've tried using the AMD drivers from my first machine (known working with this card)
  • I've then removed the drivers in safe mode using DDU and the latest drivers from AMD's website.


In all cases the driver attempts to install, the screen flashes black and then the driver installation fails.

I've checked and the card is correctly mounted on the motherboard, it is getting sufficient power via it's 1x6pin connector I think - (the 4870 that was in there before could draw up to 280W via 2x6pin connections without problem).

Any ideas how to solve this?  Shocked Shocked I was up until 2am last night trying to solve this and have pretty much run out of ideas.

Anyone else having problems syncing the official wallet?  Huh Huh

I'm running 2.0.5 and everything has been fine for more than a month, however for the last three or more days it has been stuck unable to update.

I have two connections apparently, however I never download any blocks after 1231461.

Tried restarting a few times, no luck.

EDIT:

Running getpeerinfo in the client results in this:

heh so you earn payout in 8.333 days ~ £4.65 at the current exchange rate .. all for nothing?

Anyone who has been around for a while has seen these types of scams pop up from time to time. My guess it will disappear *just* before the bulk of people can reach a withdrawal amount

I do enjoy the pixel art though  Grin

huh, when I run the CPU miner (nexus_cpuminer) it completely kills my GPU mining. Hash rate for Claymore's ETH dual miner goes from 100% -> 0% almost immediately. Strange since the CPU miner shouldn't be using the GPU at all?

Anyone else notice this?

I'm mining nexus (NXS) at the moment. Relatively new sha3 altcoin with lots of potential and an active and open community. The coin could definitely rise the coming time and is easily minable in cpu pools. You can also just buy it as it is still cheap.
They have interesting new technologies  (and new ones planned for the future, like an internet independent cube sat space program.).

What miner are you using?

hi i want to know can i start bitcoin mining with this  CPU or not?
if i can please tell me how can i start
here is my CPU details:
intel(R) Core(TM) i7 - 3770 CPU @ 3.40GHZ
Sockets: 1
Cores: 4
Logical processors: 8
Virtualization: Enabled
L1 cache: 236kb
L2 cache 1 MB
L3 8 MB

In a word - yes. I use this in two mining machines and it's a great CPU. I mine two different CPU coins at the same time plus GPU mining and it makes a good profit.

What is your CPU? I suspect it doesn't support AVX2 instructions.

i5 4670


Well according to http://ark.intel.com/products/75047/Intel-Core-i5-4670-Processor-6M-Cache-up-to-3_80-GHz your CPU supports AVX2. Have you tried one of the other mining binaries? Have you tried to benchmark scrypt without doing any actual mining?

Perhaps you've got a program on your machine interfering with the miner, or your hardware is a bit wonky or you've found a bug in the miner causing by your parameters.
