4,000$ NVIDIA Quadro K6000 card wrapped in plastic (like a turkey) ready to bake, not mine, I would have to be mental to do so

Erm, anybody have a website that calculate the profit for this? Is this better then x11? Smiley

I think better than x11, worse than neoscrypt, last I checked.

@Wolf0 , there seem to not be working CUDA neoscrypt miner, I got it to work with OpenCL but with a penalty of course

Feathercoin paid the man , the developer to develop OpenCL but he aint CUDA developer..

soo FTC is excluding 100's of miners from the process for more a month now

that's the man

your counterpart, nice guy actually (we interacted briefly on a problem) very capable, stuff works if using AMD

It was only the wind.
What's going on with price :/
last 3 days,main pools had fake-share problem,and wallet was unable to RPC solo mining.
the diff was low ,someone had special skills to get more cheap coins.
it was high profit for those people.absolutely, they should dump as i told .
when the pools are fair for everyone,the difficulty and the price will reach equilibrium,and price will  be stable.
maybe FPGA  was made,but i checked pools these days, i hadn't seen large true hashpower,except fake hash.
as i said, to check if FPGAs or ASICs are made,the profit will prove ,no matter where they are,they cannot hide.
whattomine.com  shows the profitability is 663%,i believe it is absolutely pure GPU coin.


I believe so too, I see low hashrate on my pool currently, maybe the interest is just somewhere else currently.

Probably FTC? Can't be X11.

I'm cleaning and oiling the fans of my graphics cards once they start to rattle.

Scrypt and N-Scrypt worried my fans (290 Tri-X loud rattling after 5 months mining!), but now with the new algos i see no problem anymore.

once GPU's start burning out and they ultimately will you should see not so eager dump below market prices, sometimes I feel people just to like to use exchanges it gives them feeling of "accomplishment" lol for me prices (in general) are so ridiculously low right now that it does not make sense to sell at all, there is no profit to be made

checking GPU burnout rate at the moment, never looked at that indicator, but GPU fan must ultimately go, 2 years 3 years ? if 24/7 ?

let's say someone bought 600$ GPU device and it burned out will he/she rush to ebay or egg and replace it ? while during the same time selling coins and taking negative dollars lol

and even more funny is "overclocking" which not only can fry GPU circuitry but CPU/DRAM as well

Overclocking your GPU is not going to fry your CPU.

sorry you right good correction I was thinking and doing dual mining CPU/GPU coins.. dangerous combination for longevity of the system

nice to speak with real mining software developer btw, great work!

actually my system mines CPU/GPU and Hard drive hash all at the same time, it scares me of course but it has to be done lol

thinking  of also doing "memory coin" but that would call for a disaster, although entirely possible to do

Manufacturers of hardware motherboard AMD/Intel Nvidia should use miners in their marketing efforts  Cool

R9 290: 867/1500 seems to be a good deal Grin

If you use Sapphire Tri-X you can set fanspeed to 30%. Very quiet mining rig Cheesy.

I am afraid I will have to disagree on that one... the way you recognize a GPU only coin is rather the absence of profitability.
because they are unable to hold to their coin (fake share or not, why would anybody dump below profitablity... ? unless you have a gpu   Grin don't ask, just stating the fact ).
This is what have been happening since summer will all gpu coin, most of the gpu miners just act as morons...

The proof is easy to find, there wasn't any major dump when the knc started mining the vtc, difficulty increased and that was it, but they didn't dumped...

All this is very disappointing especially for a gpu dev   Grin

i kept noticing VTC, no matter if KNC dump,the profitability was below 300%,as FTC was above 600% at that moment.
no matter if he dump,the machine was made,he must keep mining,and drive the diff to very high.
the FPGAs or ASICs cannot hide behind profitability,that's my opinion.

FTC Profitability is 1447%,very high now.
FTC and other NeoScrypt coins,all have high Profitability,this is sign of pure GPU algo.

gpu miner speaking "ho a new gpu coin, lets kill the profit so we can continue to complain about electricity bill " Grin

more seriously, I think it is all the coin which were mined at low diff... instead of keeping them, they are dumping... but again this is just plain stupid behavior

or I'll the give the theory of a friend: nvidia miners  Grin (that would explain why FTC is still profitable)

X11,X13,if you trace whattomine.com for months,the long term profitability was lower than 300% ,that means a large  FPGA farm was running.

No it doesn't - it means people are mining faster than you. It does not imply FPGA - you're jumping to conclusions.
i know x11 will be made FPGA ,and i saw a real X11 FPGA miner half a year ago,it was very  powerful.

one could also trace block generation volume (from blockchain) and compare to reported combined network hash rate in a time delta

great post thank you (also thank you @nonny12 for his fpga write up, very interesting and encouraging)

Maybe that for someone will be helpful, you can set lower power usage on 7950/7970/280x cards just use this settings:
Drivers 14.4
Msi Afterburner 4.0
Core clock 715Mhz
Mem Clock 1500Mhz
core voltage 900mV
setx GPU_MAX_ALLOC_PERCENT 100
setx GPU_USE_SYNC_OBJECTS 1
sgminer.exe --algorithm Lyra2RE -o stratum+tcp://pool.verters.com:4444 -u xxx -p xxx -w 64 -g 2 -X 128 --no-submit-stale --expiry 1 --scan-time 1 --queue 0

Hashrate is almost like with 815Mhz (956mV) core but less power usage.

On 290/290X cards you can also do it.
If You flashed 290/290x the Stilt bios, use max 1450Mhz memory clock, when is original bios use 1500MHz mem clock.
Try 715Mhz core clock and you can low core voltage in msi afterburner.

On this settings i have on 280x (hynix) 925khs, on elpidia 825-850khs
On R9 290 cards 1200khs.

Maybe Lyra FPGA has been made. The overall hash rate is high.
