How will the store ship the cards without even asking for the name of the recipient? They just don't have a field for the name, only Street, Street2, City, State, Zipcode, and Country. I'm quite certain it's not possible to send an international package without specifying the name of the recipient, not sure about shipping within US though.. Bought a card yesterday and wondering now how is this gonna work.
you arent required to ship a package with a persons name, with any company or destination.
At least in some countries you won't be able to receive such a package, there are customs' taxes and if there's no name of the recipient on the package then the customs office will just send the package back to the sender as improperly labeled.

Actually, as far as I can remember, out of a few hundred orders I've placed online in different stores across the globe over the years, this is the 1st time I wasn't asked for the name. Like literally the first time.. Shocked With all the fails this coin's been through, I just wouldn't be surprised if the store will ship the card to Russia with no name on the package, it'll take a month to get here, then the customs here will turn it around because there's no recipient mentioned on the package, it'll take another 2-3 weeks to get back, and then I'll either have to pay another $55 for shipping or gpucoin will be dead by then and I'll just be totally screwed over.

Is there any way to reach the store's representatives? There's no "Contact us" links on the website, no one's answering any questions in the official forum, and the OP hasn't said anything in this forum for a week. Just how does one contact anyone related to GPU Coin? Huh

my suggesting on making Gpuc rise ...


1-reduce block reward

2-Change the fucking N-scrypt algo .... everyone hate that .... so buggy so hot ....and by changing i mean going to HVC-Qbit-X11  ... things that run cool .... HVC best choice since its nvida friendly ... also Gpu friendly which is the whole thing about this coin

3-people stop bitching about price

4-making more people know that they can buy cheaper rigs for gpuc .. through forum twitter ads





Every noob miner hates N-scrypt. People who know what they are doing love it. So hot ? My cards are running at 55-60C and a 4x280x rig is pulling 840W at @ 0.856mv. HVC and X11 pull about 650W - Yes still 25% less but there isnt a big difference in temps and mining those algos is far less profitable.

Thank you to all our supporters buying GPUs during the sale. We have decided to give a free R7 240 to ALL 240 buyers who bought before the sale ended at 13:14:58 with the sale of the last 280X.

from the facebook page.
hate being penalised because i only have 1 gpu, broke, and cant make enough coins.

on that note, congratulations, dicks! Tongue

It seems a little extreme.  I am not really sure the point as it doesn't do much for the business.

And why not give them to people who bought the 280x? They paid more and there are a lot less of them.

But I guess as long as they are making profit they can do whatever they want.

I would like to see their total sales and how the restock will compare with their initial supply.

Next I need a motherboard.

Hi all! Are these the cards that are sold in gpucoin store? Found a sweet local deal on them. If they're not, is it worth picking these for mining? What would be hashrates for them on known algos? thanks in advance.

Code:
Brand     Gigabyte
Model     Radeon R9 280X
MPN       GV-R928XOC-3GD
I have 4xGigabyte GV-R928XOC-3GD-GA. I think it almost the same.  
Hashrate for some algo:
Scrypt - ~710kH/s
Scrypt-N - ~360kH/s
x11 - ~2000kH/s
Some settings - core - 1025MHz, memory - 1500Mhz, vddc - 1.075v
Other algos i don't tested Smiley


I have the same card and I am getting 748 kh/s stable. Try zuikkis bin from here ( http://www.reddit.com/r/dogemining/comments/1uj4uk/optimized_scrypt_kernel_for_hd7970_r9_280x/ ).I barely reach 720 without it..
1052mhz core, 1500mhz memory

I get lower hashrate than you for scrypt-N though.. about 315kh/s

That's low for a 280X. I haven't used zuuikkis' bin but i'm getting 730KH/s on scrypt (1050/1500, powertune -20 and 1.137 on Trixx) and 360 on scrypt -N (1000/1500, powertune -20, 1.131V).

1- No, you just want to create a situation where early adopters are all whales and own the market. I've been mining since day one, this is an awful idea. Also the block reward will reduce to 10,000 per the 250,000 blocks halving built in. and subsequently halve every 250,000 blocks thereafter.




Well, I don't think people want whales and early adopters to own the market - just that they don't get screwed over so much.

The price was expected to be higher.  People who invested lost a good deal of their money.  There are too many coins being generated though to maintain the intended price.  It was simply an error in judgement.

I don't think it is greedy to at least want their investment back out of this.

Anyways, if the coin rose in price because miners received less they still should end up with the same net gain.  You should be making about as much.  You may even make more.




I really dont want to sound like an ass but if everyone could predict the future, everyone would be rich. When you invest in something, it's a gamble pure and simple. Have faith in the coin, I do.

Yes, it wasn't expected to go that way and I'm sorry for the people that lost money but you win some and you lose some.  As a new comer, the only thing I can do to help is voting for the coin on mintpal and wishing for the best  Cheesy Cheesy Cheesy

the problem with a hard fork is that it can completely kill a coin.
so the investors could go from some money to no money.

the more important thing to do before drastic measures is find a simple solution. such as advertising.
no need for hard fork

2- Its bad for business to change the algo, plus with scrypt asics coming out scrypt-n is a good place to be. Considering its the next stop for the gpu miners currently on scrypt who will be pushed out by asics.

3- obviously, because your post is the opposite of this...

4- There is a lot of this already going on, there is only so much that can be done to raise awareness. The best way is trade volume and votes to get the coin on larger exchanges.


I'm 100% with you.

I know they are sold out, but what is with the toxic being listed at half price?

(store is selling them for less than 5 million, which is the price if GPUCoin was 14 satoshi)

I picked one up last night for over twice the price.

The store is getting its API pull from bittrex.com and someone bought up the coin to like 16 satoshi there.

I wish GPUCoin would move to X11.  It's the only Scrypt coin I mine now.  Cuts down on hydro use and heat.

There's only R7 240's left the sale seems to have gone well! Remember you can still be entered to win an R7 240 by purchasing an R7 240! Great odds!
