devfee version is the only I can afford.  Wink
Possible You can squeeze much more money from Bitmain for not releasing it at all...  Shocked

Fuck Bitmain.

...

A cynic might also read a little too much in this offering:

a) These high end guys may have some intel on how close ETH is to the end of the PoW phase.

b) They also may know something about the next generation of cards and that the advantage of their mod(s) maybe reduced.


Couldn't agree more. If you follow her last posts on bitcointalk she switched to the 'green' team.
twitter states also that she went to asia and is thrilled about the new things that are coming from nvidia e.g. gddr6 etc.

maybe a swing by to bitmain and other asic manufacturers to see their latest eth miners (not the e3) *lol*
who knows, ohgod what a gossip Tongue

Yup, I am Jihan. Also Casper is coming tomorrow, and we're selling our totally top secret tools and miners to cash out.

Is this w0lf's mod? Do you need to write each card with a PICKIT3 or is this just sw mod?

It's not a VBIOS.

We could also just make a devfee miner. If you'd prefer that...well, the community decides.

I was about to ask about that! If we don't try what you offer, it'd be very hard for you to get new customers. Maybe if you already have some connections then those might choose to trust what you sell, but new customers would prefer a DevFee, at least as an alternative option.

The devfee option is literally to help the community; if I didn't have to pay salaries, we'd release everything for free. Unfortunately that's not a sustainable model for business. Testing this alone chews up a lot of funds in electricity costs.

The problem with the devfee is that I don't feel comfortable just releasing a one-off, or packaging this on top of someone else's hard work (i.e CCMiner, Claymore); OhGodACompany has very, very, very high standards with our software, and while we have OhGodAMiner, it's not something I want to release to the public - yet.

Hey 1080Ti owners. We have something interesting for you.

Contact myself or VirosaGITS on Bitcointalk, or reach out to us through Discord (OhGodAGirl#8787 | OhGodAnAI#6184) or email ([email protected] | [email protected]) for pricing information.

Comments:

1) The rough numbers based on the 1080ti defaults in WTM are the following: Assuming a purely linear power consumption scaling, you are looking at about  0.50$ per card per day in profit from their mod. So you can see why they want to go big, especially if they have the hassle of policing their customers.

2) As Gary has pointed out, they aren't running a charity for distressed miners. The best payment model for both sides would be a percentage. This way the ETH miner customer doesn't have any negative exposure to any POW deadlines using this mod.

A miner could look at this in a couple of ways. If heat generation is a potential issue, you could use this mod to work on efficiency. The other path is squeezing more juice out of the orange.

A cynic might also read a little too much in this offering:

a) These high end guys may have some intel on how close ETH is to the end of the PoW phase.

b) They also may know something about the next generation of cards and that the advantage of their mod(s) maybe reduced.

Another +1 to dev fee miner.

these days I have noticed that a lot of new miners were released, and all of them had some nice performance boost form what we had before..
there were release some nice miners for amd vega and rx cards for x17 and lyra2z and now some interesting numbers for ETH for gf1080ti..
interesting times))

I like the idea of a public miner with devfee. That way the devs benefit from the software, regardless of the size of the mining farm, and the small time miners can also use it.

Yes, +1 on your thoughts, that's only logical way to pay for mining when you look from the perspective of people with only few cards.
Any other kind of investment is not usable without volume which small miner can never achieve to have fast enough ROI on miner.

Yeah that makes a lot of sense, people with large farms really need the special deals as they're on the brink of existence and could really use the money. While those rich amateur miners ruin the diff for everyone making mining way less profitable.

You are in for a world of hurt when you grow up and enter the real world with this mindset lol

Well he is an asshole!

Just because I'm an asshole doesn't mean I'm wrong Tongue

My math could be off, but at 51 for ETH, isn't that roughly equivalent to what Equihash coins generate today?

Should we expect a public version of the editor or it'll be for private use only?
I'd love to get my cards modded, but you guys probably charge more than my yearly earnings.  Grin


Out of curiosity - what improvements can be made on the weaker cards? Can 1060 Hynix be able to mine at 25MH/s after a bios mod?

Hmm... 51 MH/s on ETH for a 1080ti? Interesting.

Of course, it applies to other GeForce models, too.

So, how come you guys are not public about your pricing and/or terms?

1) Depends on the customer. We sometimes give special deals to larger farms, people we have dealt with before, etc.

2) It's dependent on your hardware configuration and card amount (and don't try and lie to me about your card amount, folks, pretty easy to chase up the real amount);

3) The ones that take the time to reach out are the ones we are interested in dealing with.

If it's so hard for an amateur to reach out to us for a sale (IRC, Discord, Email, even here), I'm not interested in dealing with them.

Simple.
