For mem straps, we can probably do the same as now - Copy straps from 2 timings lower. 1625 > 1750 & 2000 for 8GB cards. 1500 > 1625 & 1750 for 4GB cards.
Voltage and clocks will be a matter of trial & error & preference.

Except you wont have polarisbioseditor to do it Wink Better start learning how to do it by hand.
Polaris won't work with the new cards?

I got it omg Im so happy!  Grin Cheesy
I was able to get it by booting up on 1 gpu to setup teamviewer to auto-login at start
then I added the second card (bricked) and I lost visuals but it still booted (with a blank screen)
i then used teamviewer to navigate to the flashing utilty to flash the gpu that was under the name polaris
and voila now I have a working gpu  Cheesy Cheesy Cheesy Cheesy










p.s. anybody got a good modded bios I could use now? Grin
kidding not kidding
ps its a 480 4gb gaming x with samsung memory. hmu

Re: what gpu to buy ???

For me go to nvidia 1060 because its have a better hash rate and a lower consumption rate.

How much hashrate can you get from the 1060?

My XFX 1060 6gb SSC is capable of 330+ sol/s @ 93% power limit, 79 degrees, 1900 core / 9000 mem (+100/+700), 46% fan speed which is basically silent.
I can push more if I increase the temp and power limits and run the fan @ 100% of course

eh that would be a good option on a card except I've had HORRIBLE experiences with them in the past

I would suggest a wait for a good price on a 1070
but isn't the 1060 like 90% a 1070?

Re: Interested in CPU-mining?
by
LoveCaptcha
on 05/04/2017, 15:08:32 UTC
I wonder how many would be interested in a coin that focuses on CPU-mining? I think that it is possible to clone an existing coin and change it so the GPU and Pool-mining is not profitable. It obviously requires some tests and experiments. But it must be possible.


Exists already, it's called VERIUM https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1540023.1880;topicseen

and verium is bad. it takes a long time to mine and the amount you get per block is tiny. Not really worth it from my 1 day experience

nvidia 1060  https://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814487263&ignorebbr=1
or
amd 480      https://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814202270&ignorebbr=1
or
wait for vega


I'm jut looking to put maybe 500-1000 into cards at the moment and I'm just wanting to make a little money but not lose all of it when the next gen comes out. I got into this card series a little late..

Re: Do you use hdmi dummy plug for your mining rig?
by
LoveCaptcha
on 04/04/2017, 01:20:04 UTC
Hi
I don't use dummy plugs, not on the H81 Pro btc boards, AM1 boards, F2A88X boards, Z170 Boards.

both with RX480 and GTX 1060 / 1070 and 1080  (everything on linux, of course  Wink )

there is a trick to read the EDID from your monitor, save it to a file, and then feed it manually to the X window, so it will not check if the monitor is present or not, which is great when you wanna control fan speeds, overclocking or enter remotely via VNC, because the OS thinks the monitor IS connected  Grin

if there is interest i can find my notes how to doit, and post it.
yas! make it dummy friendly too if you can!

Re: Building my first mining rig [Problems]

Yes the Z97 anniversary edition supports multi gpu mining. You need to start out your rig with one GPU first , see if it loads up until to windows, if it does try with 2 cards and so on. Usually with this board you will have a few problems with 6 GPU but it should support well 5 GPU-s. If it doesn't give you signal even with 1 GPU then you should have your mainboard troubleshooted. I don't know about ASRock but latest MSI motherboards have already prebuild led lights that tells you what your problem could be.

If you ask me a 6th generation motherboard should work much better for mining than a 4th generation motherboard, so if you have some money left by all means by a Z270 motherboard from MSI, it supports up to 8 GPU-s without problems.



8?? what are you talking about!!  Grin

thanks for sharing it but aren't the opteron cpu better in price/hasharate


Yea but they are power hungry.

But you can buy a new socket G34 4 cpu motherboard for under $80.00 of course you would have to deal with non standard format and non standard power connectivity and every time I thought of it I quickly talked myself out of it.

The more standard boards are more expensive to the point its not worth it.

It's worth doing if you could get a deal on a decommissioned server for cheap.

But you can purchase a dual node dual cpu open compute socket 2011 Wiwynn server new in the box for under $200.00

http://www.ebay.com/itm/Wiwynn-SV7210-Two-Node-Open-Compute-Server-Dual-LGA-2011-/391296440423

All you need to do is buy 4 cheap E5-2600 V1 cpu's and some cheap ddr 3 ram and a SSD and 240 volt power source, will run Linux and windows 7 just fine.

The only reason I have have not bought several is I moving away from socket 2011 and moving to socket 2011-3.


EDIT: Every time I look at those open compute servers I am SO tempted........I must not buy.........must not........will power must have will power.....LOL



so is this still the best kinda options compared to using ryzen to mine with then?

BUMP

Should I choose the electricity option when the electricity is free at night for 11 hours and only mine then or get a flat .07 rate and mine 24/7?

What kind of setup should i be looking at? Should i get 470/480/?? or just wait for vega?
