Anyone mining with 750ti cards? Does it work? Or any one mining with 2gb cards?if yes ehat is your card and hashes?!

you need 3 gb gpu at present, don't ever think to use 2gb they will be obsolete in no time if not already, to be safe it's better to have 4giga
the 280x from amd is the cheapest and the best one for ethereum

think you can use 2Gb cards for now. but dont buy new cards with less then 3-4Gb
i'm running my old 660ti and i get 8-9MH/s

For the 3 GB cards such as 280x, the hash rate reduce with the increase of DAG file. For the 4GB cards, it is fine now.

Ok. Is it too much asked to wipe out drivers with ddu and install 15.7.1 drivers?

nah i can give it a try for sure.
what do you want me to try after?

Just start mining with default clocks. What does gpuz show in core + mem + mc load?

-edit- test rig found a block again, this is really against all odds. Four blocks in a week, two with single 290 and two with 2 x 390. Lottery it is...

got about the same as with 16.2
but i got BOD after installing 15.7.1 so i had to reinstall windows that was not so fun but needed to do it anyway

What are your default clocks and what is the hashrate with them? I'm going to try same clocks on my 390, your 390x should do 10% more.

core is 1080
28.3Mhs

So your 390x is not faster than the R9 390. but uses more electricity. I know the 390 is core frequency bound, but the 390x has 10% more cores.

seems that way. Sad

750Ti used to work well on Eth, but not any more. The DAG file is too large for 750Ti. So it is better to mine other coins.

The Ethereum price has droped from 0.031 to 0.021, that is about 30% drop. Last time, during the correction, the price dropped from 0.017 to 0.008. We may have more to drop.

i doubt it will drop under 0.015, and in any case it is still profitable to mine, around 0.01 or a bit more per card

The price rose to 0.037 or $15 yesterday. It has rise a lot over the last two months. It is the most profitable coin.

i can not mine ether with my old 9800gt. i only want to test it. anyone gives me a reference guide for old nvidia cards?

can only say that you need 2Gb ram on your gpu so i think its the 600 series and up
the DAG file is over 1.5Gb atm

by the look of it in my folder it's far less than 1.5 giga, it's actually only 1.1-1.3, i don't know where you see more than 1.5 giga

At present, the size of the two DAG file is 1,359,871kB and 1,368.064 kB. One is used for present, the other is for the future.

You must have a very fast network. And also your network connection is very stable. My geth will hang some time. So I do not solo mine.

I had those geth problems too. Upgrade to the latest geth (1.3.5 atm), make sure all your rigs are in 'real' time (tip by eliovp).

And yes, I have a low latency network connection.

What do you mean by "real time"? Should we update the clock of the PC every day so that it is very accurate?

I don't know daily but it needs to be accurate. Every rig needs to be at the same time with ethereum network.
