100% of nibble threads that I enter make 0 sense, are these guys all using google translator when they post?

if you guys are really buying bitbars ive got some volcano insurance you might be interested in

Thank you kind sir, don't know why I couldn't find either of those threads

couple questions . .

Is yacoin still a secret Linux wizard club?

do the windows binaries at yacoin.org work or is that bs? if bs is someone working on a windows build?
if not, will a Linux VM work for mining? all hardware I have access to requires windows

have you considered changing the name of this coin to CSWCMWLNHRFAWCoin confusingsowecanminewithlownetworkhashrateforawhilecoin?

since this is cpu mined only I feel like ALOT more people would get involved long term if it were easier, I know I would.

am I a millionaire yet?

figured this would happen, good thing I kept mining when diff was .2 

what pool are you guys on mines pretty much dead

nice, book marking this for when I get some 5970's incase I have the same problem.


didn't notice [solved] tag when I replied lol

32 cents per kilowatt hour is extremely high, at least HALF of your bitcoins are going to go to power costs with any GPU

im not saying its not worth it, but be prepared to mine for a long time before you cover your hw costs, or maybe get someone with cheaper electricity to host them for you.. for instance power here is 8 cents per kw hour and I don't even pay for it

for GPUS id say get the best you can afford it will save you money in the long run, hd5970's ebay for $350-450 if you look and they're still the best if you can find one that's not abused, 7970 can be had for 350-425 but they aren't as fast as the 5970s

im currently regretting buying cheap 6950s to save on upfront hw costs

are you sure it doesn't have anything to do with ccc? ive had this 30% fan problem on many generations of ati cards and uninstalling ccc always allows me to set fan speed with msi afterburner or some other program. did you try the bios update ?

if bios update doesn't help and removing ccc doesn't help (if you haven't already) as a last resort you can try editing bios fan settings directly using RBE http://www.techpowerup.com/rbe/

back up your original bios, and only attempt screwing with it if you have another video card you can use for display purposes incase you brick your 5970 and need to reflash it

5 visiontek 6950's 2 seem to be unlocked with 1536 shaders the other 3 aren't, they came like that.
I've tested using an old 3870x2 as 5th card, same problem
all the videocards work fine separately or 2-4 at a time, im starting to think its just the motherboard

motherboard/hd/etc are powered by a pretty old 600w psu, the cards/risers are all fed from the single 175amp 12v rail of a 2100w dell power edge PSU.

tried several including latest beta drivers.
I finally switched to catalyst 12.8 to get cgminer to stop crashing, but now that you mention it I don't think I've tried that slot with this version

Maybe its already fixed. I'll try it after lunch, thanks

oh, sorry. you need the drivers but not catalyst control center, it always screws up fan control

control panel > programs and features > AMD catalyst control manager > change > uninstall manager > custom > check catalyst control center, and it should let you uninstall just that component, leaving your drivers intact

you can probably uninstall it with that catalyst uninstall utility too, either way will work

bios update might help, its worth a try, but I've never been able to get full control of fans on any ATI card with ccc installed.

no idea why you only see 1 core temp, if both cores are working you can probably assume they're about the same temp

just sent some your way buddy, have fun

when I install my 5th gpu the 4th pci-e slot stops working, video card still shows up in gpu-z but without proper drivers and it wont display or mine. the pci-e LED lights up like normal and that slot works fine if im only using 4 cards.

is this a limitation of the older motherboard? its an x58 out of a dell/alienware XPS, dual core 1.86ghz xeon (Nehalem) if that matters
win7 x64 don't know if I should try another OS or not

not sure on exact motherboard specs I can find out if anyone thinks they can help

Hi

uninstall all your ATI drivers with this:
