Thanks for pointing towards alexis miner in nemosminer batch, it seems to work the best out of any ccminer I have tried so far. Currently doing about 330 mh/s with 60% power limit(95w at wall) on 1060 6GB, with no power saving i reach a peak of 385 mh/s at 145w from wall(system with 1 card)

I must be blind, but I can't find to life of me find the link to the alexxis78 build of ccminer. 

I'm not sure what are you talking about. they seem like a decent mining pool.

you keep saying this with no actual evidence past trying to base your assumptions off things you don't understand.... or as far as I can tell that you even care to even attempt at this point.

Talk to many users here that have tried using the pool under my recommendations.

They report more profitability.

stop the FUD, unless you have some real evidence that can prove your accusations (such as the offending pool code, etc).

My spot checks out within a margin of error.  Plus I watch the markets, and see many correlations when accounting for that and things like overall share percentage, exchange fees, etc etc etc.

guys don't use zpool is stealing your earning somethign like 20-30%, you are losing big profit there, use yiimp and do convertion yourself on bittrex, i know many liek the auto conversion, but it's not worth all these loss if you are lazy

yep.... as long as DGB maintains... it should stay pretty consistent right now.

in my second link deep, it has the instructions on making a batch file manually (I think) but yeah... sometimes the simplest problems are the biggest speed bumps when starting off.

Id highly suggest the ccmineralexis78 build for mining skien... I got a 30% hashrate increase on my 1070's, and the 1080 got 15-20% I believe...  upgrading from ccminer 1.7.

A compiled version is available to download from the nemosminer megaupload link... same forum as this thread.  You can download the .exe file separate and save it where your current miner app and batch are.

I'll be making a huge update to my batch file soon;  combining all the features in all of my batch files into one.  You'll set it once via the command line, and it will remember your last used selection until the next time you launch the batch with a new config setting....  Plus more...

The website rates will fluctuate;  but when you look at the graph over time you can see the hashrate deltas out just about where its supposed to be....   the pool calculates your share% based on how many shares of what difficulty it submits.   If you get a string of high value shares;  your hashrate shows high, etc.... just varies with "luck" as its called.   If they based it off what the miner app reported;  people would submit low diff shares only at a reduced power rate, and code in whatever hashrate they want the pool to see....   the calculated by shares method is a very predictable and pretty accurate way to do it fairly.

I finally got Skein working lastnight... i was overthinking a lot of this.. i didnt realize i just had to open a notepad and insert the miner.bat info into the file and save it as a batch file...
I am not sure if i am running the most optimal Miner, i downloaded ccminer/8.08-KlausT and added the miner batch from another comment in here and started it.. its running and has been for about 30 mins.. the rates in the miner and the rates on the website are very different... going to leave the Skein on tonight just to test things out.. its saying on the website im getting 1868Mh/s with a rejection rate of 1.6%

If this is truly correct and im understanding the profit numbers with the 2% fee added in, im currently running at $29-30/day......seems way higher than Nicehash

OK, so tonight i tried out some other miners just playing around with different miners and i noticed using the later version of Claymores dual miner v9.4, after setting it up it would only run at 62-63Mh/s, but one thing i immediately noticed is the GPU runs way more efficient or something.., because instead of running at 95-97% of TDP on Nicehash, the GPU's were running between 59-62% of TDP. The reason i am not stating watts, because honestly i dont know the exact number under MSI Afterburner, Hardware Monitor, GPU-z i only get % of TDP as a measurement of power being consumed.

So going off the logic of my GPU's being 250watts TDP,

Nicehash is running around 470watts estimate for the $15.86/day today averaging at 45c
Claymores Dual Miner on ETH mining was running around 255watts estimate for an estimation of $10.72/day and waterloop dropped to 38c

So it seems the Claymore miner is running at about half power, but under MSI afterburner the GPU% is 99 on both cards.. little confused on this...

I also tried Awesome Miner, which was messaged to me as being better than Nicehash, i could not get that thing to function correctly at all, the miner windows would pop up and close constantly, kept restarting the miners... then when it would stay running the rates i was getting was half of Nicehash, dont think it was properly functioning for my GPU.. it kept giving me a "Minimal Memory Error" on most miners before they would crash...

Just out of curiosity, what wallet are all of yall going with...? i went with JAXX Wallet after reading about so many 6 rig miners on it.. just not sure if its the best, since it has no built in way to exchange to USD... thinking of maybe switching before i get to much funds built into it.

Nope, first I've heard of that.

Try stock gpu settings.... there should be no reason for any input once the miner app is launched.

Apology,, typo error.. its Nicehash that I point it to. ops!

Now I trying with Skein and miningpoolhub. using 1080 and 970.

Jared,

I'm having problems with the Alexis78 miner. Have you had this problem where the command prompt would lock up, gpu power would go down to 0% and it would stop mining until you hit the "enter" key? It happens every 30-60mins and it's really preventing me from using zpool.
Am I overclocking too much? The screenshot attached has it locked up and I didn't hit the "enter" key until 2 minutes later.

This is when I'm only mining skein with your .bat file.

What risers are you using for the Aorus beasts? Also curious what PSU you're going to go with, I'm in the process of reconfig. as well.

Link please? Thanks.

Which mining pool are you running for that.. ? im still learning how to use the mining software outside of Nicehash.. its just so simple and has been stupid reliable so far..

 Did you miss the "2x" part?

It fluctuates because it's not dependent on a value calculated by the app, instead it's calculated by the share percentage/difficulty (miner reported values can easily be spoofed, etc).....  This in itself can add more error to the mix for sure.

interesting topic ...

we are rebuilding our test machine - 5 x gigabyte aorus 1080ti extreme - for full production in the coming days ...

we have been waiting on these high end cards for a long time - have tested - and they are beasts in the mining division ...

this machine is the blueprint for the others that will follow ...

EWBF is running for my Zotac Amp Extreme at 705-720 sol/s range.

So far i tried are point to hashnest. The reported rate fluctuate from 500+ to 700 range.

But if i run using Hashnest GUI, miner shows 685 sol/s. Website report fluctuate.

I didnt try the EWBF miner, i tried the Nicehash nheqminer v. 0.3a, which was listed under benchmarks as the miners for multiple people on the 1080ti

I have no issues with zpool really.  Just the typical random DDOS issues, or the recent payout bug that happened (I was personally un-effected, but everyone was taken care of).  Id say no more than any other pool would have.

remember;  the pool code itself picks which exchange to transfer and sell to... we can't make any assumptions where the coins were sold....

... you said you had to pay for a transfer fee as well;  zpool covers the TX fees, so I am unsure what you are getting at by this ....


Look at the spread of the coins mined.  often it's within the 10-30% range on alts... (I watch and make short plays on the market everyday now).  when you are shown a block reward;  I believe it shows the lowest market "sell" rate;  and (I believe) when it receives the funds back from the exchange, the pool corrects the estimates based upon what people actually paid for the coins.... but frankly, I don't know how often it does it, or under what conditions.  Grain of salt.  IT will take some serious researching of the pool code to fully understand how it works.

Holding the 24 hour graph of the DGB price from yobit over my pending balance graph;  you can see the same humps bumps and dips in the same time frames (almost) between the two graphs....   this is more than coincidence.  I saw it heavily when DGB went from 700 to ~400 a few days back.

Now, I bet this "estimation error" people see would not be near as prominent if the pool calculated everything based on the highest buy order, instead of the lowest sell order.... but again;  the market is in constant flux.


Also;  every time I do some spot calculations on 24 hour profitability based on my hashrate;  it tends to be pretty close to what I earned in the previous day....

What is your payout coin?
