2 Mh/s  like 70 000 /hour    +-  5k   at this moment for me

Where do you mine?
I'm mining at blocksolved.com at the moment but my daily earning is lower than I have expected.
570 kh/s = 300k/day @blocksolved.com (= 12,5k/hour)
and only 200k/day @nut2pools.com (= 8,5k/hour)

When I calculate my estimated earnings with a calculator at the current block reward and current diff I should get about 500k (~ 20k/hour) and compared with your earnings at least 1/4, so 17,5k/hour.
How can this differ so widely?

BTW my hashrate is always shown 30-50% lower on the pool dashboard  than in my miner. Haven't seen more than 450kh/s on the dashboard for 2 days, mostly it shows about 250kh/s.

why dont you just solomine ?
i found it more effective.
with one card you should get more then 300k per day

the rig with 3 cards is using 1.4gig of the 8 gig i have , the other one is using 1.3 of 4

does your workstation have more then 12GB ram ?

Try taking one card out and see if it works, ie run with 2 cards and 8GB Ram.
not sure if your using windows, stick in a 8GB USB and readyboost it, or try and match system ram >= with the total ram of the VGA cards.

I know that a guy at work couldn't get microcoin miner to work on his box with 1 R9 290 and 4GB ram.


hi guys Smiley

after the n change i seem to get some hw errors on 2 of my rigs that i did not have before.
290 cards with both elpida and hynix
i do not get them on my workstation with the same type of cards.

i have tried everything i can think of. intensity , -g , thread concurrency ( one of the rigs cant use more then 8192 for some reason..) , -w , nothing seems to affect it.
i have also tried to clock the cards both ways etc.

i get a lot of them when i launch the miner ,then it slowly increases after that ( maybe 5-10 per hour )

anyone have any good tips ?


for some reason intensity on my 270x's means very little until u dip down under 12 or 13. I only lose like 4 kh per card when I drop from 18 to 17 and so on. As for Thread concurrency, this miner's settings are almost half what I us on cgminer (16,000 TC here and 28,000 TC on cgminer). I haven't had to change mine with Nfactor yet... -w should stay the same I believe, and I think 290 uses 512 bus width? The 280 is -w 384 I think, and my 270 is  -w 256  (works on 512 but probably counter productive to my card?) My only guess would be to drop thread concurrency in half and see if that helps, then work up from there to where it stops working. Also try using low intensity until you find problem (like 13 or so). I also have glitches sometimes, like when I go to start mining with my main card after gaming on it and mining on 2+3, it stays at a really low hash rate, like 1/10 of my other cards, until I restart my pc. Seems to only happen when I use my GPU for other purposes while mining. So first things first if it is a mining rig that's on constantly, try a restart. Good luck


i got it working now with high threadconcurrency and no errors

all i had to do was to add
setx GPU_MAX_ALLOC_PERCENT 100
setx GPU_USE_SYNC_OBJECTS 1
rookie mistake i guess
reason for me not having it in my mining rigs is that i dont have it on my main computer for ybc miner , because it will not launch the miner at all then , but for the rigs it starts..

8x 290!! I would have that setup too!  Grin however just for curiosity could you put some photo about your mining rig? I'm very interested to know how is set up, it's very hot i suppose..and you have more than 3,5 kw of available electricity in your place, or do you have yor cards in a place that's not you home??

However with that setup you could be considered one of the first wales of MRC! wow!  Wink (just kidding ay!)

well actually atm im only running 7 cards since im waiting for some risers , cards would run too hot with 4 sandwitched together Smiley

i have my workstation with watercooling running a unlocked 290 and a 290x ( witch i will be sending back because i want to match memory types)
a old i5 750 rig running 2 xfx 290 with hynix
and a newer i3  running 3 xfx 290 , one hynix 2 elpida , and one not installed yet.
all inside fractal design cabinets , the 2 latter rigs are outside in my garage , 0 deg celcius outside Smiley

running 8 290cards with my config :
 -d 0  -w 128 -v 1 -I 20 -l 1 --thread-concurrency 27400 --no-restart -Q 0 -s 1 -E 1

how does your config look ?

do you not scare mine this with 8x 290 ?) You can waste ******kWh, becouse this coin can be 0 prifit in future, we have great coin, but sux PR Sad

im willing to take the chance , this is just a hobby for me Smiley

Do you get 900 kh/s on all of your cards?

with microcoin i get 2200-2400

with cgminer i have only run my hynix cards and i get around 890-940
have not tested with my 4 elpida cards.

Hi guys, i started mining also with a laptop hp pavillion that was sitting there unused..cgminer works well, the videocard in an ATI 5000 series, catalyst and amd sdk installed properly, OS WIN7 as on the other mining rigs.

Now the issue i got it's quite stange because gpu is caught by the miner, it shows gpu 0 temperature and % fan speed. It also show an average hashrate o 1.3xx MH/s but the U parameter is steady at 0.00  ... so it's like the card it's not processing anything...

this is my bat file config: http://postimg.org/image/tc6gl0n81/


If anyone could help i can send a nice MRC tip to him!


you cannot use cgminer  , you have to use the provided miner in OP , you can still use your cgminer config.


Ok mate, please read carefully all things written in post...just if you watch the screenshot you see i'm using the miner of the OP..i'm mining mrc since launch block and developer of one of the mrc faucet, so i should know this basic stuff.  Wink Wink

However still waiting for someone could help me for real.

and please read the posts before posting answers!

well apparently i cant read then.

 -d 0  -w 128 -v 1 -I 20 -l 1 --thread-concurrency 27400 --no-restart -Q 0 -s 1 -E 1

So what's everyone think?  Is this one a dud, or will it make it to an exchange?  I think the progressive rewards are neat, but it's going to take a lot to get noticed in the vast sea of shitcoins out there.
Well, of course my opinion is a bit biased so I'll just state the facts.
Even though there is no premine, the dev team has sufficient funds for promoting microCoin and creating bounties. As you can see there are several bounties in the bounties thread. The bounties paid so far amount to well over $1000. There is plenty more to spare still. So the development will continue and we will keep paying more bounties and actively seeking to get services for microCoin. Even if it would take over $10000, we are certain that we will get our investment back on the long run. There is also a bigger announcement for microCoin coming in the following weeks, but that will remain a secret for now. But you can be sure that we have no intention of stopping development, even less so, since we have invested our own money into this.
Of course everyone is free to think how they will, but this the dev team's stance on microCoin and will continue to be.
+1 devs are using their own cash, so they want it to succeed.
MCR do you have donation address for Microcoin? I'm not microcoin rich and I don't have a lot of hashing power but I'm willing to donate some micro to help this thing succeed!
Donation addresses added to signature and OP. Even small donations are appreciated Smiley

so , i havent followed this coin lately , but is there any good plans for further development and so on ?
you think its smart to sit on my coins a few months or longer ? or will the value go down once the n-factor changes towards cpu mining and rewards increase etc.

do any of you guys know what a 7950 should be running on scrypt jane... when micro 1st launched I was hitting 2.5mh/s is that good or could I have got like 4mh/s if optimized? anyone else mine in the begging with 7950's

well i started around 8mh/s per 290 card , im now at 4mh/s , im not familiar with the 7950 but i guess you have the same reduction in % as i did

New to this crypto mining, added a second R2 290, now bat file doesn't work - just a black screen when I run it. Can someone post an example on how to get their 2 x R9 290 or similar working, thanks.

I have search ybcminer on google for 2 card examples, but cant find any.

my conf atm is
8 mhash on 2 cards 290x , 7.6 on 2x 290 cards

microcoinminer.exe -o 127.0.0.1:44444 -u u -p p --scrypt --Nfmin 4 --Nfmax 30 --StartT 1389028879 -d 0,1 -g 1  -w 128 -v 1 -I 20,20 -l 1 --thread-concurrency 27400,27400 --no-restart -Q 0 -s 1 -E 1

Thanks - that worked, sending 1000 micro coin your way - cant believe I lost sleep over that :-)

thanks Smiley
glad i could help , the config is a bit messy but it works Smiley

i was also having problems mining with 2 cards only getting the second one to work properly , and the other one going slow or not working at all.
The fix was to set -g 2 to -g 1 for me Smiley ( had it copied from cgminer so i didnt notice untill today )

getting 7.5Mh/s with a 290x
and     7.2Mh/s with my 290 cards

my settings are if anyone wants to try :
-d 0 -g 1  -w 128 -v 1 -I 20 -l 1 --thread-concurrency 27400

setting a different -w value does not affect the performance for me

is dtc worth mining still  ? i have a lot of cpus not doing any work at the moment

I have no idea if it's currently profitable(power usage/DTC price), I am just using my laptop. I mine DTC to hold them long term. If you read in the DTC thread you will see there are more features and services coming within a month and Crypty can't keep DTC out of the party much longer. I just hope the team follows up on what they say.

Hello back at you.  Running 5 - 7950's and starting up a third rig with 3 - R9 270X's.  Mining LTC and DOGE.  Figured what the hell on the DOGE, we have a Shiba Inu and I'll trade those for more BTC.



I am getting 2 R9 270. Best khash/watt ratio



i see , how many khash do you get?
im running 920khash on my 290x
and 900 on my 290 cards atm

I'll find out on Friday next week. People are getting 450khash out of each one so that is what I am expecting after much tweaking. 3khash/watt. http://www.overclock.net/t/1454426/r9-270-underrated-the-holy-grail-of-mining-rigs-2-important-metrics.

My plan is to build a second rig(just frames and hardware) with as many 270s I can get my hands on.

well i doubt my 290 cards use more then 225-250w , im running 2 on a i5 750 and with a 750 corsair hx psu

I am by no means an expert, but are you sure it's that low if you haven't measured it? 250w with full throttle just sounds too good to be true.

im not sure Smiley , but 300 seems too high imo, i will check later when i have the hardware Smiley
