2x 7970s, 6870 and a 2 nvidias (the nvidias only do very little)

If you have NVidias, keep this in mind.  CoinLab is building a GPU client that prefers NVidia for computational work.  But your mining today on their pool with your AMDs gets you loyalty points for use later when GPU mining gets unprofitable.


We're planning for the first version of our custom client to be ready by 11/1.

Uhm, are you underclocking/undervolting your cards? 800-1200 with 2x 7970s seems a little on the low side of things... targeting 75°C with cgminer I has around 600 on a single 7970.

Anyhow, I've looked around the various pools and some specific cases aside (as organofcorti mentions, I'd stay away from yours tbh) they are mostly similar to each other.

At the moment I've been on Bitminter for a while and it's nice... large enough to have some reasonable stability at a (potentially) very low cost. Ineed by default you are "donating" 2% of your earnings (not a bad rate) and having in return instant crediting. You can disable this perk.
I havn't tried the other two suggested above.

Deepbit or 50btc will charge you much more but if you're after less varibility of income they obviosuly have their large size on their side.

In the end it really boils down to what features you're after. If you want 100% payout then you can look at things like p2pool, but it's already slightly more complicated to set-up.

yes you are quite correct in thinking that i should be getting much more. i said on average because for some reason over the weekend the 6870 was only producing 30

but that has been fixed now.
i have only been doing this for a few days

i will check out bitminter thank you

Bitclockers has a bad rep in terms of pool op honesty. Search the forums a bit and you'll get an idea of what's happened in the past.

Hi i am new to bit mining

I dont really understand the nity gritty side to mining but i havce started neather the less.

Currently i have an average Mhash rate of 800-1200 over 3 computers running a variance or graphical hardware from amd and nvidia
with a possibilty of a further 2 more computer / servers in the next few months.

i am currently with bitclockers.com
i have been bitmining for them for 4 days i am wondering if this is the best pool for me

Can any of you advise me what is the best pool for me ? or any of you would be interested in adding me to you collective

Thanks Smiley
