Anyone using nicehash here? Trying to find out if it's worth using it, whattomine shows way almost 20% higher rewards than nicehash, also I dont kno'w when do they convert zec to btc, as soon as it's confirmed or once/twice a day ? It would be better if nicehash produced same results since everyone instasells it anyway.


ZecMiner64.exe -allpools 1 -zpool equihash.usa.nicehash.com:3357 -zwal "your BTC Address"  -zpsw x  

Edit epools.txt  

# WARNING! Remove "#" characters to enable lines, with "#" they are disabled and will be ignored by miner! Check README for details.

However I get this error sometimes:  after a DEVHASH session
ZEC: Authorization failed
: {"id":2,"result":false,"error":[0,"InvalidBTCaddress.",null]}

it does self correct after some time


When mining this way you are not earning ZEC that is then converted to BTC. You are sending Equihash  shares to NiceHash and they are paying you for each share in BTC when the ZEC price goes up your shares are worth more when the ZEC price goes down your shares are worth less  no conversion is made


check your status here: https://www.nicehash.com/index.jsp?p=miners&addr=yourbtcaddress  


So it doesn't matter when they pay out the btc because the share "conversion" is made in real time ?

Actually, a restarting PC without a bluescreen usually means the PSU is at fault.


I couldnt find the original complaint within all of the quotes but yes, that is usually the issue.

Try using one card at a time.





pc keeps restarting, whats that normally from?

Thanks

Modded bios ?

No everything as defualt

Too weak PSU.

I only have 4 470 8gb and 1000w psu.....Everyone is saying they have 6 cards and only like 750w or is that only because of moded bios?


1000w psu doesnt give 1000w, it gives 80-90% usually. same with every psu. even if somebody says it has 6 cards and 750w psu, even if pc start, gpus won't mine.

in your case it possible that psu is really shitty, and it gives you even less than 80%, if not than search for problem in settings or elsewhere
had the same problem, just today change for a new psu also 1000w, but better one, works perfectly with 4 even 5 gpus rx 470.

try disconnect one gpu and run miner, if it runs, it is psu. to make sure it is not the disconnected gpu, connect it back and discconnect another one

1000W usually gives at least 1100-1150W from wall. You have no idea what you are talking about.

Its not his PSU.

Pulled apart my fan on cpu, hardly any heat sink but heat was around 40 - 60c ....

Any other idea of what you think it could be?

faulty hdd maybe? seems like its making some noise.

Also what motherboard, cpu and how much ram do you guys normally use? I need to get new parts anyway.

Thanks

I was gonna say it could be faulty ram, but typically if it's ram it just freezes or won't start at all. Does the event viewer say anything at all? You should be able to set the system so that it'll dump out to a log the next time it reboots. You'll have to google that because I can't remember where that setting's at. You can then go into the log and see what's causing the issue. Does it reboot when opening the mining software or just in general? If you go into Safemode does it reboot then? Could be a driver issue? You don't really need much ram I don't believe. I think I have 4 GB. I'm running Windows 10 with 3 RX480s and 2 RX470s and no issues at all. Have 32GB SSD drive and ASRock 6 PCIe motherboard.

I actually start the miner and after a few minutes it restarts my pc.

Thanks for the info man, i will look into everything and give it a go again.

Go for nicehash for stable return, go for ZEC if you think the price will rise.
They dont convert anything, you are getting paid from nicehash buyers with their BTCs. There is always a fixed price at the certain time.

WTM may show you 20% more rewards from nicehash than direct ZEC mining, but you have to check all parameters.
In other words check current profitability. Or sort by `current` values if you like to watch them. By default it sorts by 24h averages.

anyone knows how to fix this ? using equihash.eu.nicehash.com:3357 these short disconnects happen quite often.

ZEC: Received unknown response: {"id":null,"method":"client.reconnect","params":[]}

ZEC: Stratum - socket send failed 10053, disconnect
Have this problem too. I think @Claymore miner havent establish stratum connection to Nicehash server. Once this error happen, epools will kick in. So remember to setup your epools properly

Mining on coinmine

After DevFee completes, miner does not request new job(that is only my guess of a source of problem) and shares go rejected for some time.

Do you plan a new version of miner soon, Claymore?

Sorry, but i thought that i should make a repost.

9 hours running stable here. had a nice worry free sleep.

if 7950's are doing 50 sols, just wait for claymore's updates he might bring more sols to 280x, 290/390 and 290x/390x

Yeah for some reason my 7950 is the fastest at 50Sol/s while 280x are like 43Sol/s.

What Version of 7950 you using? and how much watt they take away on the modded bios?

My 470 Nitro 4gb makes 44~ hashes and uses only 70-75 ~Watt most of the time with 30% cooler. Really silent as well.

The 7950/7970/280x were always the best mining cards due to their large memory bandwidth.

If it wasn't for the DAG file in ETH they would still hash at 27MH/s.

During the Litecoin days they hashed at 80% of the speed of a 290 and cost only 60% of the price. They were forgotten with ETH mining but are now back and killing RX480s.



Do you think it's worth hunting down some second hand cards and build a cheapo Tahiti rig for Z?

if you have the elecricity for that, move swiftly go for that.
it will worth it, zec won't go down that easy.
