@Mikko8: Ok, I've done 1 and a bit rounds and I'm signing off. (Hope it helped some).

I may help again soon (depending on the response from other community members).

Thanks for the advice. I'll take a look on these possibilities and exact prices tomorrow.
Well it is a cheep option but not cost effective one. EDIT: Be sure that PSU is strong enough

I missed start of a block for 3 minutes but now I'm mining for you...

EDIT: since it was a short one you will get one more...

mining seems to be a choice of pour money at it and get big rigs/asic or sift little and often and try to chip away at the mess of 0s to get some im only a tiny player myself and now after almost 1 month have .4 btc
unless your on a laptop you might look into getting a cheap gpu even a 57xx will give you about 100-150mhash


I am on a laptop, and that's a huge offset. Nevertheless, I've learned a lot. I've also managed to worsen my browser display output setting up ATI drivers but that's another story Cheesy

Cheap desktop with PCIx16 about 50€ and 5750 or 5770 is about 50€ and you will getitng about 150 180 without overclocking and up to 220 with overclocking... But use cgminer you get about 10% more out... When ASIC takes over BTC switch to LTC...

Waiting for my 2 sapphire 5850 gpu (low on budget) which will arrive next week. Imagine getting 600-700 mh/s. I think it would be fantastic.
No. Set up correctly you should be getting 700+. About 780 if heat isn't a problem...

@Mikko8: I'm only a slow miner like I said earlier (50mhash/s) - sent 10 shares so far, are they registering?

K.

Thanks. It was 9 a minute ago + 1 on the new block.

hey guys this would be my 1st post here. Smiley

Based on my experience here at slush pool having just 85 mh/s average The reward here is great! For example 24 shares on 26 mins block my reward is arround 0.0003.(this figure for me is great with just 85 mh/s). The only thing i notice is that if ever there is a connection issue or outage you will likely see a lot of zeros even if you have shares.

That's more than I earn daily Cheesy Good luck with your new GPUs.

EDIT: new round, I'll stay on a little longer; hopefully you'll get a quick round.

Thanks! I really appreciate this! I didn't think this would take that long. I'm struggling since 12 April.

there is a difference in 7.7 and 1...

Sometimes I manage to mine a single share in an hour, sometimes two within a minute. No doubt there is a difference, but I call myself experienced at slow speeds Cheesy

I will give you my miner smaller miner(468) for one block....

Thank you!

1mhesh is less then one share per hour so if your miner doesn't send any shares for 30 minutes your score is reseted... This is a big difference from 7.7 to 1...

Forgot to add. It is a donation...

just got back home and checked what the morning CPU mining did... total of 7 shares found, dificulty 1 ( max of 1.1MHash/sec when firefox is closed etc ) and find the following block is calculated ( and time showing last 2 of them were at end of round )

17791    2013-05-01 20:01:25  5:00:24 36782329  7 0.00000000    234096   25.58139100

normaly i'd shrug it off due to the over 36 million shares, this time i know at least 2 shares were in the last few min of the round

Unfortunally for such long round you probably need last minute not last minutes at that speed...

I with my ATI Mobility Radeon HD 5145 capable of 7.7Mhash/s at top speed can say this is not quite true. Last few minutes are fine.

btw, I am stuck at BTC0.0037. Maybe someone would like to help me reach the minimum payout threshold? I'd pay you your fair share for the work and cover the commission.

If you post a worker name and password here (it's safe - people can only use it to mine for you), I'll help a little till the end of the round - I'm a slow miner as well though.

I wouldn't require any payment from you, and maybe in little donations of time from different users you can reach your goal.

Don't worry for user and password. The only thing anyone can do is mine for you. You can't be hacked... EDIT: unless it is the same password as your account...

P.S.: there is a difference in 7.7 and 1...

OK - I'm really not getting how these blocks are being scored.

For two similar blocks - on this block, I got in 115 shares in 2:18 and got .00032359 for it.

17770   2013-04-30 17:34:10   2:18:03   15697265   115   0.00032359

But on this block, I got in more shares (132) in less time (2:03) and there were fewer total shares, but I got 0.000 ??

17774   2013-04-30 20:25:35   2:03:23   14233698   132   0.00000000
it's all timing. here is from a CPU miner and 1 share on 2 different blocks ( mine )

#      Block found at           Duration     Total shares    Your shares  Your BTC reward   Block #   Block value
17775  2013-04-30 23:59:52      3:34:17      24772020       1           0.00000369        233974    25.23872222
17774  2013-04-30 20:25:35      2:03:23      14233698       1           0.00000000        233955    25.34648117

I happened to be home to watch as the 2nd share was Near The End of the round ( 80+ in Current shares CDF: )
so, i'll take it and as far as the getting 0E-8 goes, I'm waiting on some 86ooGT cards to hopefully get out of CPU mining and get a higher hash rate.
this is a ' typical ' block for me when sooo many are connected and getting shares.....

17759    2013-04-30 01:20:57     5:01:48         34198356       3           0.00000000       233836    25.46175733

Not detered, more resolved and liking it  Cool

If you are seriously trying to make something off of CPU mining, you should not be with slush.  You should find yourself a straight up PPS pool and stay there.  Please take the advice to heart.

There is nothing wrong with Slush's pool that's causing your returns.  It's working the way he has designed it.  CPU mining doesn't pay off, so Slush won't support it.

Don't get me wrong, I'm not trying to blast you, just saying how it is.  It will benefit you to find a straight up pps pool.
