More likely a botnet. And that IMO is LTCs greatest flaw. A botnet could easily take it over.
At least for now, its much harder to take over a cryptocurrency running on GPU's; though that might change in 5 years or so if opencl capable IGPs become more common.

On a related note, lc.ozco.in is processing 70% of the Litecoin transactions at the moment with a single miner, "temp", pulling  2 MHash/S

there was talk on btc-e of people loading public/store computers up with ltc miners, wonder if that's him.

You should make little labels and put them in a glass display like those where people keep dead butterflies and beetles.

I dare you to post another pic of that cpu box within your own post viewing this thread.

Hmm?


Did someone say... Inception?

Any good CPU's there? I'll buy any 775s you've got.

Sorry, no 775's yet.
Only a few 1155, 1156 and 1366's but I didn't have a socket for them so I trashed them.
Any modern CPUs that work?  I'd pay you for core-i series, better than throwing them out.

Same ^^

I've still got a 1990s romanian spectrum clone. What kind of LTC crunching power do you suppose that would give ?  Cheesy Some spectrums were even made with network ports, sadly mine is not one of those.

LOL @ the inception shots, it sure does proves that you really have the products in hand.

Yeah Tongue Once a guy said: it's almost impossible to find a ZX80 nowadays so I had to prove him wrong Tongue

Do you extract gold from CPU's ?

I know its possible but you better get Pentium Pro's or the old Cyrix CPU's for that.

I keep them for decoration and in the near future I want to buy something like this and put them in there:



I also have about 5 kilo of PC memory (SIPP, SIMM, DIMM, RIMM) in a box.
Bought some on eBay (and the Dutch version: Marktplaats) and I work at a PC store for 15 years now, so I collected a lot of old stuff Smiley Some of it is broken but most just old and obsolete from scrap computers...

My other hobby is Sinclair computers and old electronics:





I have about all of the models ever build.
Also an unbuilt ZX81  Smiley

Not the actual one, but to give you an idea:

I want to bench 'em.
Maybe I should do some LTC benchmarking... See if I can hit 10KH/s/core.
Could be doable, take a Thuban up to 7ghz and run one thread with two cores enabled....  I'll try it when I get a thuban Cheesy

I want the socket A CPUs, all of 'em.
I'll pay in BTC, TBX, FBX, GG, or LTC.  Not SC2, though.

Those CPU need to be benchmarked with dry ice or LN2 cooling Cheesy

Hmm, would minerd --scrypt even run on an Athlon XP? Tongue


Yes at 0.53 khashes...Athlon XP 3700

I have an old one still setup as a firewall so I tried it.

Not bad Tongue Just need 40 of them to beat my 1055T @ 3.5Ghz  Grin
