SirGeekalot, I have several 290s and they each use ABOUT 275 watts each with me undervolting them and overclocking them.

Hi Waffle.

Interested in your outlook on a recent announcement by the doge-dev's:
"We ARE fixing the Block Rewards, and difficulty distortion from Multipools"

Source found here: http://www.reddit.com/r/dogecoin/comments/204nrf/ann_we_are_fixing_the_block_rewards_and/
Quote
tl,dr; This new build being developed by myself and rog (Rapidhash pool op) will fully stop pools/multipool's gaming the randomly generated block system, alongside help us prevent against multipool's greatly distorting our hashrates. We're working as fast as possible. We're testing as fast as possible. We're ensuring this fork will be pre-planned, allowing for apt time to update wallets in advance. We'll get it deployed as fast as possible. Keep the faith, and keep mining on.

i'm almost at break point too. its getting to the point where i'm going to have to stop mining and wait for it to come back up.



For what it's worth, I think you need to work on power optimization - if I read your chart right, you are pulling 702 watts to run 1.3Mhs of scrypt?

I run rigs that pull 686 watts for 1.8Mhs when using Bronze PSU's, and I am currently now purchaing Gold rated PSU's as they pull closer to 640 watts at the wall for the same setup.  I still can't justify the increased cost of Platinum PSU's. 

Have you explored undervolt your rig or invest in a better PSU, or different GPU's with a better power per kh ratio.  Heck, with that power cost, you may want to explore ASICs, when they actually become more reliable. 

I don't currently have a power usage monitor so I'm over estimating the power from my 290 and 270. I've got a thermal take 1500w Psu but dunno what it's rating is. I guess I'm playing it safe by over charging myself for power.

I'm working on it right now.  Essentially its an issue with having fewer coins actively being mined (just because there are fewer profitable in the last day or so).  If we start on litecoin, switch to doge, and go back to lite before a block has been found, we end up with some duplicate shares.  I'm working on a patch right now, not sure on ETA though.  Has nothing to do with EU vs other servers, should be across the board.

Hi Pool!
Hope you are ok... i have a question... its possible to split the hash power to mine several coins at the same time? ex: LTC and DOGE and summarize all the profit made and get an uniforme payout per hash/user?

Best Regards,

LPC

We already mine multiple at a time (depending on lots of factors).  What exactly are you suggesting/asking?

Hi Guys...

Same here... im getting at the point i will have to power down allmost my farm...
Profits are getting so low, and BTC is not worthing that much (411€), these two combinations are killing any profit...

Im in Portugal, and paying 0.15 € per Kwh add to that + 23% IVA (VAT), so my ratio if we where taking 0.01BTC per 1Mhash as 10 days for electric bill (1btc) and 20 days for proft... Right now it seems that i will take allmost a month to get 1 BTC...
I have partially change my farm to be 75% waffle 25% Middle, to see if i can get any scraps that will help on the payout... But atm im kinda worried about this whole crash...

I have even thinked and move all the miners to dogecoin only...

What to do?

Im averaging 4 Sistems all at 1000w consuption and close to 10mhash processing.

Best Regards,

LPC

Still problems with high rejects on eu server? got 5% use to be below 0,2% rej. tried restart both mining rigg and router/modem without improvment, now i switched to us.east seems to be a bit better, but eu worked flawless for me before what happened?

I did notice that 2 out of my 12 cards, had a huge reject %, but that was after a restart, reconfig of cooling setup. I will keep an eye on it.

In the past few hours I've seen my hashrate drop from ~3000KH/s down to an average of 900KH/s. Is anyone else experiencing this? I'm on the US East pool. I'm at work so I can't access my rigs at the moment.

EDIT:
NM, it appears that my rig for some reason either restarted, or sgminer decided to switch back to load balancing. I see my hashrate split between 3 pools again (my default is LB between 3 pools, but i've had it set to failover only on WP for the past few days because wemineltc and teamdoge had been sucking ROI-wise).

+ You can change you power meter to day/night one.
Not sure which part of UK are you in, but in NI you can save quite a lot with this type of tariff giving that rigs are on 24/7.

+as mentioned above, your power consumption seems high, I have 1 rig with just 2 cards for the moment (7970) and mining 1.3-1.5 MH from 550W; another one in the same area (~1.8MH - 4x270x) draws ~790W

shit, you indeed have higher power costs than I do, sorry to hear that.

Living in the UK Brother.. Bloody expensive to be a Brit.

Thumb up for the increase in server stability, sorry but how long more we have to wait to view each individual miner? I just want to know if they are active or offline (doesn't really need to show hash rate but its a bonus) Smiley..

Looks like another spike in hash rate on LTC. I wonder if it is the Gridseed ASIC coming on line. It might start pushing out the GPU's.

I dont think it would be the gridseeds.
The only thing they have going for them is lower power consumption.
In terms of price vs their hash, GPUs still win.
It takes at least 2 gridseeds to get around 700kh/s
But if you're like me and electricity is expensive, ASICs are the way to go now.
Im seriously thinking about selling my GPUs, so yeah they are getting pushed out.
the thing a lot of people don't seem to understand about the gridseed chips is that their effect isn't based on individual performance like the sha-256 asics.  It's that a bunch of new hash can be deployed.  AMD hasn't been keeping up with the demand leading to a huge price spike in gpus and shortages.

I need to understand why my total hashrate constantly is 2mh/s lower than it really it.

I have 2 machines running making a total of 6700kh/s at the moment, and i never ever ever see my rate on the website go above 5mh/s Why is this?

It's just waffle and the other MPs switching to 60%+ litecoin since all the other altcoins' profits are in the shitter right now.

Waffle is too large. If it were 1/10 the size (which is larger than it was a few weeks ago when I first joined) it could mine the alt coins without destroying them.
