Tnx, I'll check them.

Any more suggestions?

Hello, I have few questions about PCI-E risers (extenders). After a lot of asking for advices on Internet, I didn't get anyhting usable.

Very quickly, one friend and I need about 100 risers (extenders) - half of them 16x-16x and half of them 1x-16x. We would take "powered" risers just for any case.

What I need is some EXACT links for good and cheap risers. All what I've manage to get from others is "look on Ebay", "go to Alibaba", "here you have some link but I don't know are they good" etc... Because what I've heard about those risers, I don't want to buy them blindly and spend a lot of money for some garbage. I've heard thet often 50% of risers doesnt work or they work but with problems etc..

My requirements for risers are:

1) they have powered molex or SATA connectors
2) they dont cause problems with graphic cards (OK, I know that a lof of them will not work properly so we will buy 30% more then we need)
3) they dont cost 100 USD per piece (yeah, I've seen a lot of dealers which buy in China for few dollars, and then they sell them for 100 USD...)

4) they cost about 5-10 USD per 1 piece (15 USD at top!).


5) they can come in EU (Croatia) relatively quickly (in 5-7 days), even at little bigger cost for mail.

Tnx!

Average is 32 kH/s, not 40.. xD

Btw, why on https://coinotron.com/coinotron/AccountServlet?action=myaccount it says that my Hashrate is 28 kH/s for my GPU? :/

Wow, it seams to works now, TNX! But I think I have a small problem.

I've found http://sourceforge.net/projects/cpuminer/files/ on Google and downloaded http://sourceforge.net/projects/cpuminer/files/pooler-cpuminer-2.3.2-win64.zip/download

Then I've created START.bat (c:\Users\Ivan\Downloads\pooler-cpuminer-2.3.2-win64\START.bat) with this content:


minerd -o stratum+tcp://coinotron.com:3334 -O MyWorker2:MyPass2


I've start BAT file and IT WORKS . My i7 950 CPU is at 100% (all 8 cores (4+4)) and speed is 3,5-4,5 kH/s per core (avarage total=40 kH/s)

But the problem is that cgminer.exe (GPU mining) starts to throttle/have disconnections . And current GPU speed is 100 kH/s (it was 130-150-170 kH/s).

I guess minerd.exe suffocate cgminer.exe? Altough, I can normally work in Windows even CPU is always on 100%.


Can I somehow little limit minerd.exe with some parameters in BAT file? Or change priority/affinity in Windows Task Manager?

No, you've understand it wrong. GUIMINER for GPU uses cgminer.exe, but for CPU setup it runs "guiminer-scrypt_win32_binaries_v0.04\reaper-bb\reaper.exe". I've post settings for cgminer just to show how this stupid GUIMINER made wrong settings for GPU also (but I've fixed cgminer for GPU with manual changes, with help at IRC (chat)).


OK, I will try this "pooler-cpuminer" for CPU. I am new in all this, this is my first day, so I didn't know that there are more applications .

Yea, I also guess that this is the problem (last 2 lines).

When I delete those 2 lines, reaper.exe starts and stops without any error. It's same when I left those 2 lines, but without "2" and "32".

I didn't understand that at the end ("equal to the value")? To put "=" sign before 32? I've try that and its the same.








Tnx, I will look if I can find something useful there
















Yea, "guiminer" also created bad BAT file for my GPU ATI 4890 ("guiminer-scrypt_win32_binaries_v0.04\cgminer\mine-Default.bat") so I had to edit it manually (someone helped me at IRC).

This was created by GUIMINER:

"c:\Users\Ivan\Downloads\guiminer-scrypt_win32_binaries_v0.04\cgminer\cgminer.exe" --scrypt -u MyWorker1 -p MyPassword1 -o stratum+tcp://coinotron.com:3334 --gpu-platform 0 -d 0 -w 256 -v 1 -I  -g 1 -l 1  --thread-concurrency

and with that I was always geting error “cgminer.exe:–thread-concurrency requires an argument”



This was manually edited and it working OK (I'm getting 160 kH/s):


"c:\Users\Ivan\Downloads\guiminer-scrypt_win32_binaries_v0.04\cgminer\cgminer.exe" --scrypt -u MyWorker1 -p MyPassword1 -o stratum+tcp://coinotron.com:3334 -I 12 -g 1 -w 128

(I also need to manually start it with mine-Default.bat - If I run it from guiminer, guimner again put his bad parameters).

hi, I've started mining LTC's with GPU at coinotron.com, but I would like to mine with my CPU (i7 950).

when I run it, i've got error:
Warning: unknown property "32" in configuration file.
Warning: unknown property "2" in configuration file.

This is the content of configuration files. Does anyone know what is wrong?

i've been told that i first need to write something here, to be able to post else. So, here it is
