Perfect.  Thanks M.  I don't know why I couldn't find it.  I guess my eyes are getting old.  Much appreciated.

If you look at the details of each algorithm, for some of them it shows a running chart of how well it's paid to sellers compared to 100% luck mining.  That works for SHA256 and Scrypt, but they don't seem to have it for X11.  I'm guessing it's because the X11 algorithm is too complicated to accurately predict 100% luck all the time ... and if they did, they'd end up like the coin comparison pages that seem to be all over the place.

Be careful with Nicehash right now for D3. I love Nicehash, but they are almost $2.00 p/d below switching pools. I suspect people aren't renting hashing power on X11 as much, what, with the mass destruction and all....

Good point..  You always have to watch the payouts on any pool.

The old nicehash website used to have a page that showed what the 24 hour pay and current pay is for all the algos.  I can't seem to find that page for the new website.  Does anybody have a link for that by any chance?

This one?

Too Many Miners Not Enough Electricity
but which pools (besides Antpool) pay a reward when you find a block?

Are there copies of the OLDER firmware someplace (or anyone?) you know how it works..you upgrade to NEW firmware on an asic miner
and we're better off with the previous version....

just asking ...will likely have this done...but wondering on fall back if needed



I currently have the September 13 and November 2 firmwares downloaded to my computer hard drive.

edit:

I uploaded them in my Mega cloud, in case somebody needs these.
September 13, 2017 firmware: https://mega.nz/#!s49E3A4K!PjeBEtZFdMflKe95gAtqBJRgCR7wyNIp-fCpI_8Qs9w
November 2, 2017 firmware (the newest version at the moment): https://mega.nz/#!ckkQhAzJ!jdTQEbkik-yQpEh9_aNdAoxper-didEqglKsWIaiZAg


that was quick ..thanks ..will see if I can grab them....(again paranoia is how I slide thru life) Smiley

New firmware is doing alright for me

Getting faster speeds out of it. My latest D3 is getting 20.345gh/s

Hi,

Is there a link for step-by-step firmware upgrade.

thx a lot

Which pool do you recommend?  It's so odd that some calculators show -$10/month for me, and some show $150/profit month. 

That's your call based on your requirements and preferences.

If you would like to be paid in BTC, NiceHash is by far the best place to rent your hash.  Check their stats.  They regularly state the payments that go to sellers of hashrate exceed what you'd get by mining with 100% luck, and in many cases by quite a bit.  Just use their internal wallet to keep the fees at 2%.  (My sig has a referral for them.)  At the moment I have no reason to believe they are fudging their stats.  Someone stated here you have to watch them because sometimes they pay less than "100% luck".  From what I can tell they don't show that stat for X11 like they do scrypt and sha256.

If you want to play with other coins, Prohashing can pay in you in many different coins.  However it's a 5% fee.  If you think you can compensate for that fee by playing a coin, that may be best.  Someone stated here you have to watch them as well because they have some instability issues.

I think there are a few straight Dash pools as well.  However I don't know what they are.  Read back through the last few pages of posts to see.

If you have more than one D3, maybe set them to different pools for a few days and compare the results.

Dash price up over $300.00, difficulty down to 20 million, I like.

good to know...will pass it on to my buddy ...supposedly the data hall will get mine TODAY.....the psu arrived last friday...

(now of course I jinx'd it ...damn it!)

on an aside my 1st D3 (the 2.7k dubious purchase) is maybe getting 16.5gh on a good day ...er make that maybe 16gh...thus I hope something
like this helps

20gh like you on the 2nd unit would go a long way on me at least being even at say 35gh for both

WAIT...who am I kidding..these things are gonna be mining AIR next month as per elec price going in vs crypto coming out.....

(I still plan to mine the most dubious of x11 coin I can find..just to mine something damn it ..even at a loss.....call it a frigging D3 lottery hope/dream/likely tragedy) 

Ack!

I've had this exact problem, that Bitmain has described in the firmware description:
Code:
1. fix the issue: some miner's chip status is 'x' after running for several hours or days.

I'm glad they have fixed it now, I just installed the new firmware and no problems yet.  Smiley

thats good to hear, thanks...getting a D3 delivered in the week and will update firmware

i hear that bitman sell D3 (19Ghz) for private member)

Not exacetly, I received my d3 miner with 19Ghz. And its my first purchase from them. They maybe increase the hash rate for 2nd,3rd....... batch

There is a new firmware for D3.
Someone has test it : https://shop.bitmain.com/support.htm?pid=00720170915192851224mJ36J1ap066E
?

firmware version?
