Starting to mine with one gpu is like having one tattoo..
You're almost certainly bound to add few more 😁

..and yes, speaking from experience, on both ends.

Heya,

I was browsing Tech powerup and noticed they published a very short, initial info/article about Biostar's version of a mining GPU.
I apologize if this news was already published here - I couldn't find any mention of it.

Copy & paste:
Quote
BIOSTAR posted technical specifications of its first graphics card designed for crypto-currency mining, bearing the model number "VA47D5RV42." This card, which is based on the design of its RX 470/480 graphics cards; is built around the Radeon RX 470D chip, and endowed with 4 GB of GDDR5 memory. The RX 470D is a "lite edition" or LE variant of the Polaris 10 silicon, which never made it to the DIY channel market, but occasionally reared its head in the pre-built OEM market. It features fewer stream processors than the RX 470, at 1,792 vs. 2,048. The chip is clocked at 1200 MHz (boost), with 7.00 GHz (GDDR5-effective) memory. Interestingly, unlike most "mining" graphics cards we've seen so far, this card appears to feature a full complement of display outputs, which includes three DisplayPorts and one each of HDMI and DVI. The company didn't reveal pricing.

What do you think about it?
Is it actually going to be worth getting?

Heya all,

First post (ever!) in these forums.
I decided to have it in this thread because folks in here seems to know what they're talking about..
PLEASE forgive me if this is posted in the wrong place. I'd appreciate a headsup to where this post will be more suitable.


-------

I'm new to mining. Very new.
After doing some research I came to the conclusion that Claymore's is the right miner for me.
Currently cruising at ~32.5 MH/s with a single GTX 1070 clocked @ 2500MHz mem.

These are the exact, literal steps I made to get started:
1. Downloaded & installed Mist Eth wallet.
2. Created a 2nd wallet ("2nd wallet" - didn't like the default one)
3. Downloaded Claymore's 9.6, set it to Eth only and used the following settings:
Code:
setx GPU_FORCE_64BIT_PTR 0
setx GPU_MAX_HEAP_SIZE 100
setx GPU_USE_SYNC_OBJECTS 1
setx GPU_MAX_ALLOC_PERCENT 100
setx GPU_SINGLE_ALLOC_PERCENT 100

EthDcrMiner64.exe -epool us1.ethermine.org:4444 -ewal Myaddress -epsw x -mode 1
(*with Myaddress ofcourse being my wallet's #)

4. The client was running overnight. It has made over 100 shares.

------------

So far so good?
yes.

So why is it that I can't see any progress in my wallet?
please treat me as a complete newbe - talk to me like step one basics.

What am I doing wrong?
Am I missing a step?
Why can't I see anything in my wallet?
 
Kiss
