For all of you who are using NiceHash: today we had another DDoS (purely network related), I'm sorry for that. Nothing was lost, but as you've experienced there has been lots of disconnects both from providers rigs an buyers orders. Some miners might still having issues by not being able to connect due to several disconnects and invalid shares resulting into unwanted bans - this will be sorted by the end of the day by automatic un-ban (for valid miners). We'll improve our DDoS protection by moving to another, better DDoS protected location. Service is now working normally and all download links are alive. Thanks for understanding and thanks for using NiceHash.

Who knows why i can't set different worksize by each card? I set worksize "256,128,128" ,but miner creates bin files with worksize 256 for all cards.. 
On version of June 11, i could do it!

Can someone point out a link to download compiled v5 miner?
https://www.nicehash.com/software/#sgminerAnd no f*n readme, how should i know what to do, am I Obi-wan-kenobi?
Is someone going to walk me through or else i will just keep asking.

Could someone please post an example of what the pool config should look like to auto switch x11, x13, and x15? Thanks!

Anyone got this to work on a private p2pool node? When it starts, I always get my local pool as being dead.
Thanks
Try "no-extranonce" : "true",Thanks
Thanks, it still shows up as dead and goes to backup. Here is my config file. I do have other pools with profiles to add, but this is my main one that I need to use. Any other ideas to get it working?
Code:

"pools" : [
{
"name" : "p2pool",
"url" : "http://192.168.1.3:9172",
"user" : "Vv8DSRtwKwYsFdaskKHLyAPvtNiVEoUaYp+.000406",

*sigh*
Ever since the damn DDoS attack earlier, I've had 2 rigs (located at a different site) that cant connect to 4xxx ports. I have 1 machine here that can connect to them fine. Just when I had everything working nicely, something comes along an FUCKS it all up.

w00000t... switching finally working nicely for me on all my rigs, I just needed to adjust gpu-engine settings for each pool to avoid sick gpus.
How did you manage to do it? I use miner from nicehash v5 and example conf file from https://nicehash.com/multialgo/ but when run it I always go to backup pool 3333...
This is what I get:

Can somebody, who is using the latest nicehash windows build sgminer_v5 (sgminer-5.0-pre-release-2014-06-25-win32.zip) with 14.6 beta drivers , please check if the gpu-engine/gpu-memclock options are working with this build as expected ?
For me, the latest windows build, completely ignores the core/memory clock settings from config file, the GPU boost mode default values are used instead (1070/1550MHz for the given R9-280X cards). I'm unable to change the values from sgminer GPU menu (Shift+G) as well. thanks

Works fine on my R9 290 cards. Using 14.6RC2 and the 6/25 sgminer nicehash build in Windows 8.1.
ok, thanks for reply. i did some tests, the issue is related to 14.6 drivers on Windows 7. with both 14.6 versions (beta and RC2), the gpu/mem clocks are unchangeable. the old 13.12 driver works fine with the latest nicehash sgminer build (sgminer-5.0-pre-release-2014-06-30-win32.zip).
July 01, 2014, 07:14:44 AM
anyone know the KH/s for a R9 290X on X15 or nist5?
July 01, 2014, 07:02:05 AM
if X11/X13 become mainstream, there will be asics for it
we can say that the price of a coin is somehow defined by the cost of the extraction
that's why scrypt asic miners and botnets/chinese farms miners dropping so low ... ok
but
why theses people who runs botnets and china farms don't want to sell
@ higher prices ? this will make more profits for them and things possible for us
there will be always someone to make cheaper prices than the others to sell more
this is a non solvable problem for me ...
sad to realize that asic BTC home mining and GPU home mining is dead for an average joe
the only bone which still got a little bit meat on it is the scrypt asic one, but it won't last too long
as the big miners comes in september, you have 2 month before all the main scrypt coins get raped to death
good old days are way behind us, i see lots of dark clouds coming

new algos is not the solution: asic are not available for X11 and similar but profitability is so low anyway.
the problem is people mining with free or very low price electricity (botnets, china which pays 0.08 per KH/H, etc.).

arf ...
i pay near 0.17$/KW/H for electricity
going to resell my rigs ... to buy some asics
shit man
i had good times tweaking my rigs like mad
but now it's over ...
or maybe not ? a new algo will rise ?
idea:
what we need to create is a new algo, which changes every 6 months
with a new fresh algo added in the "Xchain" of algos and to be sure to
have fresh algos every half year,
make a contest for mathematics/cryptography finding new algos or modding the old ones
we just need to makes changes ... so that evil asics can't update at the speed of the changes

Suggestion:
Just create a config to list ordered algorithm names instead of X11, X13, X15, etc. For example algorithms="keccak,bmw, groetsl".
Lets call it XN algorithm

what happens to the X11/X13 markets ?
mining with my 8x7950 just make the electricity back in dollars
Is GPU mining rally dead ?

unless you pay 0.1 or less per KW/H, it's been dead for a while now.

new algos? x15 / nist5?
Im looking to test this out. Anyone have some GPU conf files for X15 or Nist5 they can post?
A straight-forward configuration would be the same as X11/X13, you should just use:
Code:
"algorithm" : "bitblock",
for X15
and
Code:
"algorithm" : "talkcoin-mod",
for NIST5.
btw: make sure you have the latest sgminer_v5 from https://www.nicehash.com/software/#sgminer
bitblockold also ?
edit;
seems like the link is offline

14.6RC2 works nice with SCRYPT? And there are Mod Files out for 6+ GPU Rigs?
