you need a fully distributed software system, not an .exe

I actually am/been working on something likes this that uses c# and utilizes cpu to run on my computers that do not have a good Nvidia gpu, it is more a brute force method.

I also want to make something that will utilize Nvida cuda to use with a mining rig that I have been putting together. I know mining is not lucrative, I am only building it for puzzles and maybe some AI stuff in the future

The c++ code is a bit harder for me to understand, so I have been testing and looking at other cuda application that do this, like rckangaroo, vanitygen bitcrack and stuff like that, trying to learn the best methods of going about it.

I do not think I will be renting gpus from Simplepod anymore, I just don't have the money for it at this point, I want to utilize the hardware I already have and try not to spend too much on this.

Anyway this will be my last post here on the forum, I feel kind of bad that my questions have caused RetiredCoder's thread to go off topic, so I will find some where else to go if I need to ask questions.

I only gave you a suggestion: don't do it. Every time you split, you increase your running time by 41%. Two splits? Double your time.

So maybe first learn, and then throw yourself into a witch hunt.

no, you were rude and said that my questions are stupid, and made some other snarky comments about solar panels, and oil drilling

you could not just answer a question without trying to belittle me, the question was not even directed to you

I am trying to learn, that is why I ask questions, is that OK with you ? Do I have your permissions to ask questions on this forum ?

You want to be rude to me I will give it right back, you may know a lot more about this stuff then I do, but the fact is you have not solved a puzzle yet, and you probably never will.

Maybe you need to LEARN how to be a little bit more humble, get over you technical arrogance, and work on your decorum.

It seem the MKeys/s goes down over time for some reason.

Yeah, I really wonder why as well. I think it has to do with some basic laws of physics, like... things heat up, and heat = energy, so you're losing more energy on disipating heat rather than on jumping RC kangaroos.

Any suggestions on what command parameters I should use for puzzle 135 with this current Gpu setup, I am not sure what the dp and tames parameters do exactly.

Would it be better to split up the 135 range ?

I hopes it is OK that I am asking questions, like I said before I am new to this.

I suggest you don't, since this a demo program. You will waste your time, you need a fully distributed software system, not an .exe Frankly, all of your questions are kinda stupid. Computing power is a commodity that can be bought, and you are asking people to show pictures of their oil drilling setup just because they drove a car. Or setup of their solar power grid just because they can light up their TV.


Frankly, all of your assumptions are kinda stupid

The 3060m uses lower wattage and runs pretty cool, plus i got a good cooling system, the rtx 2070 runs pretty hot though

Using other programs like bitcrack, keyhuntcuda, vanitygen, etc, etc I did not see mkey rate drop after hours and hours of runtime

Yes I understand that gpus can be rented by minute, hour, day, week, month, I have already did that and tested rckangaroo with 8 4090 gpus, but I saw a post from OP which made me think he was using his own gpus

Quote
Exactly. I'm a retired coder, a good one, so I do it for fun mostly when I have time and interest, and it becomes boring after a month of managing a network of GPUs.

He could certainly afford to use his own gpus with his winnings, so it is not a far stretch to think he has some type of hardware setup. For me building the rig and seeing how fast you can get it running is part of the fun.

So you are saying he has no hardware rigs setup at all, you seem to know everything, but I have seen OP saying you were wrong about a lot of things in this thread alone.

I do not see myself wasting time, I am doing this for a hobby, for fun and most importantly to learn.

I think some of the people on this forum just like to be rude to new comers to discourage people from trying to solve puzzles, the less people that are doing, the better their chances are to solving it, maybe you one of those people, not sure.

So I did another puzzle 84 test with 5 RTX 3060m Frankenstein cards, and 1 RTX 2070 card

I solved it in 10 minutes

It seem the MKeys/s goes down over time for some reason.

Any suggestions on what command parameters I should use for puzzle 135 with this current Gpu setup, I am not sure what the dp and tames parameters do exactly.

Would it be better to split up the 135 range ?

I hopes it is OK that I am asking questions, like I said before I am new to this.

Have you posted any pictures of your hardware setup anywhere ?

Are you too lazy to look for yourself in RetiredCoder's post history? Just invest a little bit of time yourself, instead of asking to be spoon-fed, how tiresome!

Quick overview: https://ninjastic.space/search?author=RetiredCoder  ---  Look, Ma, I can read!

why are you cluttering this thread with your useless pompous comments, stop hijacking peoples threads

OP asked to post speed results of different cards, so I did, it was my first post ever on this forum, and I purposely
 joined so that I post my results and try to contribute some data to this thread, and then you reply to it with your snotty comment, what is wrong with you, get over yourself, you are not that important


Just because I showed interest in his hardware setup of 400 gpus, does not mean I want to be spoon fed, I was just wanting to see what a 400 gpu setup looks like.

I did look threw his post history and did not see pictures, maybe he posted them some where else, did you happen do consider that?

hi RetiredCoder, thank you for sharing your hard work with us, I am new to this, so I do not really understand much of what is mentioned here.

Have you posted any pictures of your hardware setup anywhere ?


Anyway I tested puzzle 85, I have two of the 3060M Frankenstein Cards in my desktop
