Setup a script to auto restart at some amount of time, that will solve all the current problems with crashes and slowing speed.

Then the waiting period for other miners will be no problem.

Do you have that script?

for this reason, I decided to pull back my Nanos and 390s to continue mining ETH.

only my RX480s is dedicated mining ZEC since its able to hold about half a day before Genoil goes crazy. Putting a reboot timer will solve this case but i dont think its wise to reboot a windows machine 5-10 times a day.

i tested a batch file to reboot every 2.77 hours (around 10000 seconds) like below. To be run after genoil batch file.

==
countdown 10000
shutdown /r /t 5 /f
==

I will wait for Claymore's miner with watchguard, monitoring etc.

I had to shut down almost all my gear overnight .

House got very hot and we had some wicked t-storms. Multiple mini blackouts. So I turned off all the gear but one small piece.

Good news is zec rallied in price just a bit and eth rallied in price a bit. plus btc is still above 700.

I would love for this to last for a week or so.

My in house rigs all allow for cpu + gpu mining except for 1 rig. So that rig is cpu for zec and gpu for eth.

Today is a good day to be a miner. So lets see if that can be said for 1 week straight.

I have earned around .03 zec so far.

Converted all my RX480s to mine ZEC.

And retained the Nanos and 390s to continue mining ETH.

So far collected 0.33 ZEC after 24 hours with flypool using Genoil miner.

Do we know yet, what is 1 ZEC = BTC?

The Genoil GPU miner is not very stable - hangs or slows down after an hour or two, need manual restarts

The NH CPU miner on the other hand is very stable but hashes smaller sols/sec vs GPU.

I think Claymore ZEC GPU miner will steal the show soon ...

ATM, 14 rigs about 1.3KH.

The ZEC farm just went up last night so average hash will take a while to build up.

Since last night, 3 payments of 0.01 ZEC each

The genoil miner will stop working intermittently - its doesnt have a watchdog feature like Claymore so you need to reset/reboot miners manually.

I hope Claymore gets his miner out soon - I cant live without the watchdog and monitoring feature.

Mate, your shares are way too low on flypool.
Mine are double with 400ish h/s, I got 20 rx470/480s in 4 rigs.
http://zcash.flypool.org/miners/t1VR5EKqWHNyCW4KxzpbrD1AwVV7AvWJRqv
My shares drop to the floor too if I don't restart genoil 4.1 every 20 minutes.

my 6x480 rig does about 170-180 sol/s in Genoil -- I dont see that on flypool - its far lower.

Other than modded rom to 29MHs/Low Power for ETH mining -- I didnt do any other settings to this rig to make it faster on ZEC/Flypool

Or maybe low share isn't a problem if pool has var-diff?

the same rig 6 x RX480 with 29MHlowenergy rom, on ETH only mining 1120watts and runs hot

with ZEC mining with genoil v041, this same rig, draws 730watts and runs cooler.

my warehouse is overall 3c cooler since running half the farm for ZEC mining.

yep, I've got 540 w vs 744 w for the same rig.
it will not last, though, as zec miners are not at maximum yet. i see GPU utilization of 36-40% while it is at 100% solid with eth miners.
SA promises 100sols/s from RX 480. Oh, my.

Hi guys,

Inspired by Claymore XMR miner settings, I just got supersonic speed by adding the 2 setx infront of the genoil command to mine ZEC at flypool.
Try it out and see if you get blazing speed....

===
setx GPU_MAX_ALLOC_PERCENT 100
setx GPU_SINGLE_ALLOC_PERCENT 100
genoil.exe -c cn1-zcash.flypool.org:3333 -u t1Jri6jtR2jZZ4GRXS5WwzAehUHfqAqVVBW.Wimpy -p z
pause
====

It didn't increase my speed..

yeah, same apparent speed, but more submission and acceptance messages for some reason.
I got tons of invalids when I tried.

I converted at least 50% of my ETH farm: 5 x 5x390 rigs, 2 x 6x480 and 8 x 5x480 to mine ZEC with Polo address, at flypool.org using genoil v0.4.1 miner.

It works well with 390s and 480s -- with no issues identifying the cards and compiling the required bins to start mining.

The 480s are with modded ROMs (low energy ETH mining 29MHs by Heliox). No issues running them with genoil.

I guess this would be the short term norm until I see something from Claymore.

I retained the other rigs (all R9-Nanos) to continue with ethpool.org since the difficulty level eased up a bit, likely a bunch of ETH miners are mining ZEC now like ants all over candy. The Nanos failed with genoil miner.

Can you share your stats?

Sol/S
Earning table - amount - time?

I just got the latest genoil 0.4.1 to work. looks like my two rigs are pulling more then 100h each. will post with my info late tonight.

it is hot in NJ got to 79f I may not run. overnight.

My rigs have 4 rx 470 4 rx 480

1 i3 6100t

1 i5 6300t

I shut down every thing else the two rigs claim about 500h between them at about 1000 watts

the silent amry kernels in genoil run all my cards that work with the miner about 20 c cooling per card and my 470 are hitting 30 to 35 sols each with modded bios .

I keep the coins at Polo so that I could see how much these coins are worth in the open market.

Do you think it will be increasing in price?

after witnessing the crazy pricing on Friday launch of ZEC.... anything goes..... so when someone wants to buy my 1 ZEC coin for 5 BTC in Polo... I will be ready to sell to him/her gladly.... :-)

Hi Phil,

Those used i5 that you recommended buying awhile back - I have 2 builds with that CPU with Gigabyte B75M.

To my surprise these CPUs are also very decent ZCASH miners - not as big hasher compared to GPUs but not bad for low power rig.

While cleaning up my dev rigs - installed so many useless ZEC miners... I kept the Nicehash ones which is probably the only decent one that doesnt crash, esp the CPU miner..... cut a long story short....

I downloaded the latest Windows multi algo miner version 1.7.3, that includes Equihash algo.

https://github.com/nicehash/NiceHashMiner/releases

To my surprise, this version includes already the Windows version of CPU+GPU miner for AMD and also NVIDIA.

On a 980Ti GPU and 1840 Celeron - the miner runs at 43 sol/s and pays 0.0215 BTC per day or $15.51 USD per day (thanks to a decent BTC $ rise).

This is 1 rig with 1 high end GPU and a low end CPU - Imagine this on a 4xGPU or 6xGPU AMD ETH rig.

Will put this to work on 6xRX480 and 6xR9Nano and 5xR9-390 tomorrow morning - will we see ZEC paying 60-70 bucks daily per rig?

If the rigs runs stable, this would be a perfect way to leverage ZEC high paying rentals at Nicehash market.

At least thats what is profitable now, compared to mining directly.

I want to try this tomorrow. I havent been able to get ot my rigs being out of townover the weekend but finally get to tinker with the ZEC craze.

Did you get this to run stable? I know previously my 480's would crash when benchmarking the nicehash miner.

i was pushing 350 sols to nicehash and its only 37$ a day the day before it was 100$
renting to nicehash dropped a lot in 24 hours

I stopped selling hash to Nicehash and mine direct at zcash.flypool.org, and keep actual ZEC since there are so few coins in circulation.
