Hello guys,

i am looking for some advise here and hope its ok to ask. Since 10 Weeks i am mining with 6x 1080TI and 6x 1070 gtx. To be honest i was using all the time Nicehash. When i started i got about 0.1 BTC each week from 6x1080ti. Now my results looks like this

6x 1080TI  : 0.03... BTC
6x 1070GTX : 0.016 BTC

Of course i knew that the difficulty increase but i think i am missing/losing some huge profits. What shall i do? 
Whats the best pool? Software? Are there some mods what are more profitable?

Thanks!


1-Don't use Nicehash. It sure is easy that they are paying bitcoin directly but usually less profitable.
2-Whattomine website is your friend. Every 2-3 days check there and switch your mining coin according to the results if there is really difference in them. But don't become paranoid and don't change your mining coin every second by looking to whattomine. Stick on one.
3-Open an account on poloinex or bittrexx and mine there. Change to bitcoin directly if you want or play between currencies.
4-Diffuclty increases but prices also increases those days. So profitability nearly the same when you compare before diff bomb of ethereum.. (Of course not as first times when the ROI was 4 months)
5-In lots of pools luck is a factor also. When comparing don't look only data from one two months. Your profit can change -+%x .

So... what is currently the most efficient non-paid (sp) skunk miner?  I'm seeing about 51mh on cc 2.2, palgin is still around 47 from what I see.

Not sure which one is faster but im doing over 50mh on palgin at 75% TDP.

So... what is currently the most efficient non-paid (sp) skunk miner?  I'm seeing about 51mh on cc 2.2, palgin is still around 47 from what I see.

im using alexis at 53 mh/s

If you are mining on Windows 64-bit version best free skunk miner is tpruvot's ccminer 2.2, 32-bit, x86 version.
It is about 5% faster than x64 – that's deference of about 3MH/s, just by running/compiling x86!

Also more hashes can be achieved fine-tuning miner intensity to decimal numbers, until you reach best results for your setup.
Try it, go by really really small decimal steps for intensity, it can make some pretty BIG differences.

I found out that for me intensity of 21.0956 makes difference of about 1-2MH/s more per every single 1080 Ti compared to default skunk intensity of 21!
But when I set intensity to higher than that, my skunk hashing speeds just go slightly down from there – simply for me intensity of 21.0956 is the best possible maximum for skunk algorithm.

I mean intensity of 21.0956 mining skunk in tpruvot's ccminer 2.2, 32-bit, x86 version gives me about 59MH/s, sometimes it jumps even little bit over 60MH/s per 1080 Ti card in contrast to plain default intensity of 21 which gives just about 2MH/s less with the same OC settings. I described my OC settings some posts ago. Skunk hashes on my Aorus 1080 Ti Xtremes faster with overclocking/underclocking at core +120 (1841MHz) and memory -2000 (9010MHz) with power limit at 85%.

Also compiling tpruvot's ccminer 2.2 with CUDA 9 gives a little bit better performance.

Any Recommendations for Intensity on Skein algo on Hashrefinery, using CCminer Alexis and default intensity is 27.. Would any different number improve it?

Heres my stats; sometimes I get 5-7% rejections, changed difficulty from 0.8 to 4 based on recommendation of hashrefinery owner and rejections went down from 25% to around 5-7%

http://pool.hashrefinery.com/?address=1LoZQEpppUi66JMyhi92xzV3Kvk9C9GizL

How do you configure difficulty? "-m 4" in start batch file? I'm also experiencing 20-25% rejects at Hashrefinery, but it's not all day trend.


If you are using sniffdog, go to Pools folder and edit the hash.ps1 file - at the bottom where it says Pass = "ID=$Workername,c=$Passwordcurrency,d=4" - you see how I added ",d=4" thats the difficulty setting.

What are you guys using to underclock your memory? Ive been using afterburner but the lowest i can put it is -502. It runs ok at that but maybe theres more to be saved by dropping it a bit further. For some reason everyone else seems to hash slightly higher than me too. At 110 power limit +150 and -502 all i can get is 920h/s . But im running at around 240w which is too high.


What miner are you using? My cards are doing 970 with 75% tdp, +120core and ´-502 mem using ccminer 1.1 palginmod.

For Skein I use CCminer Alexis which is found in Sniffdog download file, search user fromage in this forum and click his signature link, his work is specific to optimization of the 1080ti

Hope that helps

I think CWI is still the best! Check out the thread here: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/a-chainworks-industries-cwi-project-cwigm-simple-powerful-stable-2054431

So sigt halved with no apparant increase in value , This is Sad

Best to keep mining. This will keep the difficulty and community up. Don't lose hope this coin will become great!

Im using ccminer alexis78. I was under the impression it was the best. When i cut it back to the same clocks as you have with this miner it only gives me 865h/s. Do you think i just have a slow/duff 1080 or would changing to a different miner or different drivers help up my hashrate a bit?

thanks



Try change miner and see if any difference.

Seems odd if it could differ that much from diffrent brands of 1080ti cards. Unless its the FE versiom you using?

Anyone have any clocking suggestions for Skein and Skunk?

Doing 110% power limit, 85C limit, + 50 Core, -50 Mem

Giving me 1.03-1.05Gh/s on Skein and 54-57Mh/s on Skunk per card (Running 8x 1080ti EVGA FTW3)

Also, using sniffdog + Hashrefinery.. Is it normal that rejection rates can go up to 20% ??

Would it be more profitable running Zcash Mining instead if I can do 780 Sol per card? Anyone have good clock settings for that?

Cheers everyone, Thanks in advance



For better efficiency use 70 to 80 power limit unless you have free power.
I go +150 core -1000 mem on skein, +100 core -1000 mem on skunk.
