I've been watching crypto currencies for awhile now. Me and a friend are looking into building a machine to run 4 Saphire Tri-x R9 290x cards. I dont have a problem building the machine but everyone seems to have a different opinion about what the scrypt rate on the cards are (or any card for that.) My research says I should be able to get around 1MH/s per card but I've been seeing in some places where people are saying theyre only getting like 9.7KH/s. Could someone help clear up the card hashrates and/or direct me in the right direction if I am currently going the wrong way?

Thank you!

I will suggest you to do some more research. There are lots of algorithms used by various cryptocurrencies. Different algorithms can be mined "profitably" on CPU, GPU, and ASICs. For example

SHA-256D & scrypt are only profitable on ASICs or via Cloud Mining in long term.

X11,X13 etc are profitable on both AMD & nvidia GPUs if u mine the right coin

quark,qubit, scrypt-chacha/jane are right now more profitable on nvidia gpus

I dont have AMD GPUs so i dont know what they r good at.

I hope this helps.

And the 9.7KH/s might be for a scrypt-chacha/jane coin like ultracoin. This algo requires more memory for each hash so hashrates go down as GPU have limited memory/VRAM.

Regards

Sam

What mining software are you using?

Just wanted to share this. I am using following config for NF16 for gtx 970 using cudaminer

cudaminer.exe -d gtx970 -q --algo=scrypt-jane:16 -L 8 -i 1 -l t32x4 -C 1 -b 65536

This is giving me 780h/sec & my APC UPS s/w reports ~154W of power usage.

Please share if you have a better config for gtx 970

Regards

Sam

Thanks. Assume ~100watts for the 970 giving 7.8h/s/w. Not appetizing enough to consider buying for the purpose of mining but OK if you already have for a gaming PC.

replaced some 280x toxic for gtx970 from warranty for 50bucks more each

I am not sure 290x can brake 0.35Kh at NF16 or 1.5 at NF15.

You need to understand that being memory limited doesn't mean buying a 4GB 290x, it means buying the cheapest 4GB card you can. A $70 card can do 1.1KH/sec @ NF15 and .3KH/sec @ NF16.

nVidia cards do the math faster on a clock-for-clock basis, that is true, but look at it on a $ per KH/sec basis and see what comes out ahead.

GTX 970 looks verry well with this hashrate(0.78 NF16). DO you know the hashrate 270x 4GB?

How many watts is the 970 pulling?

I have 2 R9 270x 2Gb and 2 R9 270x 4Gb. What's different settings i have to set? buffersize? but if i try to set buffersize for 4Gb card twice more than for 2Gb, i got a kernel error and card are OFF. May be i have to lower -R ?

On NF 16 I'm getting 205 h/s from R9 270x with ~14% HW errors (on 140 A there is 1 R and 20HW). Is this OK?
