Question: has anyone done the profitability math on HVC? How are things looking there.
Christian
Profitability just went down the drain from an hour ago. An hour ago the difficulty was 350-450 now it is 720. On the 750Ti HVC is profitable when difficulty is below 450 given the current exchange rates of ~0.000025. With my 8 750Tis if I left it on HVC at 28mh/s right now I am looking at daily profits of $6.85 whereas an hour ago that calculation netted ~$14. At $6.85 daily profits I rather mine other things. At $14, that is a very attractive rate. My calculations have taken into account the considerable less electricity HVC mining takes and that is already factored into the profit calculations versus other coins I track.
In comparison, Yacoin is $10.80 per day right now with my rigs though it is hard to move Yacoin on the exchanges.
Doge = $6.11
Moon = $7.37
Leaf = $1.75
TIPS = $3.56
Obviously my calculated daily profits are going to be different for other people who have different energy cost structures than I do so here are the values in terms of BTC income per day not counting electricity.
HVC = 0.013278
YAC = 0.020820
Doge = 0.014419
Moon = 0.016488
Leaf = 0.007285
TIPS = 0.010247
Thanks for your details report. Could I ask which hashrates do you get for YAC with 750Ti ? And with which lauchconfig? I still mine MRCs for days because I like this coin. Btw the diff is low and my tips: don't let the exchange rate fools you. You could always sell MRC for at least 2 satoshis. FYI and for comparison: I have expected earning from 0.07BTC/1Mhs with MRC now. And I'm pretty sure that your 8x750Ti are able to get at least 0.5Mhs with MRCs now (Nfactor=11).
Interesting about MRC. I will definitely need to look into that coin for my calculations. What card do you mine MRC with right now?
For YAC I am getting 28kh/s total. 3.3-3.5kh/s per card.
For scrypt I am getting 2344kh/s total. 293kh/s per card average.
For HVC I am getting 28mh/s total. 3500kh/s per card. Weird that some of the cards go as high as 4400kh/s while this increased performance is not seen in other algos on those "faster" cards. Maybe CPU related?
For YAC my settings are
cudaminer.exe --algo=scrypt-jane -H 2 -L 2 -i 0 -l t64x1 -b 4096 -m 1
For scrypt:
cudaminer.exe -H 2 -i 0 -m 1 -l T5x24
It should also be noted that my calculations do include a marginal 9th 750 Ti in my main computer that mines once in a while when I'm not using my main computer for work or games. The impact on the bottom line of this 9th card is nominal. Maybe $0.50-$0.70 per day.
