Personally i think you would be better to spend the extra £10 or so and get the Ti, as it will get more performance. How much more i am unsure

What MOST people can expect:
750 = 260khs

750ti = 300khs

I can likely go more on the 750s, but my 750ti's seem to max at about 305-310 now with the newest cudaminer and high overclocks. Previously I was only able to get 288-295 consistently.

1,560khs for a 6x750 rig at about $720 in gpus (ones i got were $120)

1,800khs for a 6x750Ti rig at about $900 in gpus (@$150, mine were $165 on average though, so $990)

**Also keep in mind the 750s are supposed to use less power and I've never tried modifying the bios at all**

hi,

anyone can compare how much khash/s for GTX 750 Ti and non-Ti on LTC?
sorry, i can't find any references in a few pages back

currently one of my mining PC is using HD 5850 and HD 6670 to mine scrypt based coin (LTC, Doge, etc).
i get 300-350 kh/s for 5850 and 100 kh/s for 6670 with little overclock
but i was thinking to sell both card and change it to single GTX 750/Ti to save electricity

any thoughts?
Thank You

I live in France (the electricy is rather cheap here, I think, but it won't last).
I don't run very often on multipool (did it for a few hours on BC before it peaked so it was rather profitable), I run mostly on new coin at launch and the funny thing is that my most profitable coin at the moment is COMM and didn't really require any power at all.
Also as bigjme I exceeded my goals with maxcoin, so for now it has been relatively profitable (but I don't have a gpu farm either...)

Over 3/4 of France is nuclear power generated. You should enjoy that low cost for a looooooong time.

Thanks Ivan, whattomine has definitely fleshed out the selection of coins! That saves some effort.

The main issue I find with some of the smaller coins (even things like HVC and YAC) are the block explorers are sometimes down/not up to date, which gives figures that are not accurate. I think the only way to get accurate numbers is from the wallet itself. Was thinking about spitting out numbers from my mining machine to feed in to the calculator.

Sounds like chasing new coins is the best way to profit, but seems to take a lot of time. Having said that, I spend so long messing around with this stuff that it would maybe make sense to do it... Sadly I only have two 750Tis, my significant other isn't so happy with me investing more hehe. Maybe if I upgrade my own PC to next flagship maxwell card when it comes hehe

Well if i am needed i will help, stuff like taking live stats from exchanges so you get the proper selling price, well decoding json strings and running curl is basically all that needs to do. maybe store them in a database as a backup for if the exchange is down etc.

Hey we all came here to get rich Wink

And if im honest i made enough from maxcoin to pay off my new rig and my 780. So my mining rigs realistically cost me nothing

Wanting to become rich is ok I guess, not doing any effort for it isn't (especially when you just need to read a few line... and experiment a bit)

A lot of people do seem to neglect he readme... I think sticky guides with help with that. There are also several posted by Raven which have configs for 750tis.

I'm going to see if I can put together a CUDA calculator that's focused on profitability of the common coins nvidia miners target. At the moment the calculators are dotted all over the web. Just need to find some time away from work and get some skills (last time I dabbled in site building properly was when GeoCities was in its prime...)

Just enter hash rates and power draw...

Website development is what i do so ask if you want help Wink

i guess i can even host it for..... freeeeeeee

No need to do anything, maybe work with this guy...I helped him come up with some of the numbers.

Just to clarify, the multiple pool arguments are accepted but the miner doesn't actually failover. I don't think readme / help is updated with the failover yet, wasn't when I looked, but will double check tonight.

I found the message I posted some time ago: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.6137738
You need to use "-r #retry" , that tells the miner to retry n times before moving to the next pool (I think it is enough... I can't test right now)

Thanks mate.

You're UK based right? I just wish our power didn't cost so much! Eats so much of any profit margin, once you take in to account pool losses etc. vs calculators - even with 750tis. At least if bitcoin price stays highish then its's not unprofitable.

Thanks guys. I will have a root around in the previous pages. I follow the thread and don't recall seeing it. I was using the usual -o pool1details -o pool2details, which I had read elsewhere was correct for Cudaminer

As for guides, that's pretty key - a lot of stuff gets lost or is asked many times in this monster thread. There are quite a few up now at Cudaminers.net but because of Christian posting here (esp. release details) and the collective wisdom in this thread, they don't have much traction. If Christian moves over there then I expect we can organise things like those key guides in to stickies.

Personally i think we should just do a guide on setting stuff up and let christian post a link to it in the initial thread. Cut out all the questions

that would be helpful, but I don't believe it will be enough... They never read the readme file, I have been spoon feeding one user on the other forum without any success as he doesn't do any real effort to get that stuff working... Grin

for them ccminer is a better miner as there is nothing to set, even though I already saw pretty dumb comment... (I am losing faith in humanity Grin

people come here expecting to become rich and they don't even want to do the most basic effort...)

Anyone succesfully using the failover on Cudaminer master from Git? I tried using it to run on NiceHash with Clevermining backup (to take advantage of this Whitecoin business) but it wouldn't switch over. I then ran a few tests with e.g. a wrong stratum address etc. and I still didn't seem to switch between pools.

I tested it, it was working but it needs to be set up correctly (try to check a few pages back, I think I posted a few things about it... I didn't keep the command line I was using... sorry, I don't run very often on pool and even less on two pools), also use --help to get access to all the fonctions it might help.
