For everyone who is complaining about electricity watch this. This is how power consumption was back during the Litecoin days with Scrypt.

350Watts per 280X at the wall. And you guys are complaing about 100Watts or so. So spoiled kids these days.

Yeah, my 7x 7970 rigs were brutal when mining scrypt. Don't miss those days at all.

All of those GPUs survived thanks to heavy undervolting, and are still mining to this day.
i'm using 7990 and i dont find way to undervolting this gpu.. can u tell me step by step to do that??
Thx in advance

Can someone say what is the power draw from the wall for Sapphire 280X Dual-X/Vapor-X?

Not sure if this will help, but its a quick screen of GPU-Z on the Sapphire 280X Dual-X Card

Its running in a 6 gpu rig alongside 3x 7970 and 2 other xfx R9 280x

Total rig is doing ~401h/s with that card at ~ 70h/s all stock settings.





Thanks!

Can someone tell me if buying a HD 7990 for mining is worth it? And what is the hashrate?

I can buy one for 250€.

No. They don't mine ethereum well as they are effected by DAG increases. Bad idea to buy a card that is power hungry and bad at one of the most popular altcoins.

Chill out.

I was only telling people to wait for the new claymore release.

I saw that there is a way to run Linux miner's on Windows 10 64bits. Is this possible?

i'm am wondering too

Yes, through Cygwin64! I've just done it.

wow Huh , it seems does not work for me,.... how do you install cyg?


miner@480-11 ~
$ dir
optiminer-zcash

miner@480-11 ~
$ cd optiminer-zcash

miner@480-11 ~/optiminer-zcash
$ ./optiminer-zcash -h
-bash: ./optiminer-zcash: cannot execute binary file: Exec format error



optiminer-zcash: cannot execute binary file: Exec format error

I get the same error.. did you find a solution yet?

You need the correct components to run it I assume, as well amd gpu drivers..

Seems like too much hassle, there will be a new claymore miner tomorrow.

So with the price still declining... are people still mining and holding in hopes of a comeback or has everyone jumped back to ETH?

Normal that price is falling while the supply is increasing.
Ummm......you do realize coins are always increasing in supply.......at least until they max out in a few decades Tongue

For what its worth.  My stock clocked/volts 4x r9 380 rig went from 805 watts while mining ethereum (not dual mining)  to 652 watts on Zcash claymore v4  never measured v1 -- but based on temps and fan speed it had to be less.

It depends on your overall system. No one can just guess. Check it yourself.

I'm mining Zcash with:

01 - R9 280x - 70 Sol / s
01 - RX 480 - 75 Sol / s
02 - RX 470 - 130 Sol / s
01 - I7 4790K - 25 Sol / s
01 - I7 3790K - 20 Sol / s
Total - 320 Sol / s

I do not pay for energy.

With the price at 0.21 still pays off? Or do they recommend another coin?



How did you got 130 sol/s on a 470?

I think he means he has 2 x RX 470's

Which are the minimum Cygwin64 components we need to install?

We are not at the full block reward yet.  It will be interesting to see in about 3 weeks time where the price falls or climbs.
