in terms of the influx of asics now and in the near future, what is the difference between vertcoin and an X11 coin like Hirocoin? I know this is a vertcoin thread, but what is the reason behind supporting vertcoin over hirocoin?

VTC has a big community. HIRO is only pump and dump as often seen before

Vertcoin will feature two pages in the book called Cryptocurrency "The Alt-ernative" the Beginner's Reference

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=483187.new#new

Please donate to the below Vertcoin wallet address in order to help fund this project:

VroEAFHWyuscjVJprdXEVTVqC534vMn3Gg

It will have 2 pages similar to this:

If you spot any spelling or grammar errors, these are easily sorted. I do have a full time job as well as trying to get this project completed too.

Now if I could only get vertminer to work on my GPUs...

http://cryptojournal.blogspot.ca/

Works great for me. Also faster than Vertminer when using Zuikkis kernel. Less hardware errors and rejects as well.

Ok, think I got it working, guess I need to do some tuning. The options provided only showing 208KH/s for the R9-280x...

When you start sgminer, what kernel do you specify? I tried starting with --scrypt-vert and it failed to recognize that.
Also, copied cgminer.conf to sgminer.conf. Should the kernel just be --scrypt or somthing else?

reserved! I really hope this takes off, it's been too long since a coin has actually had something novel to offer.

The power used by the gpu is mostly used by the shaders. Each shader uses some memory for the program and another bigger chunk for the data (the amount varies with the n-factor). As the n-factor increases the graphic cards will no longer have enough memory to use all the shaders, so the power used will decrease (and so will the hashing speed).

So which config we should to decrease ? Thread-concurrency ?

Add this parameter if you use sapphire dual-x.

--gpu-fan 70-100 --auto-fan --gpu-engine 1010 --gpu-memclock 1250 -g 2 -I 13 -w 256 --thread-concurrency 8191 --gpu-vddc 1.07 --lookup-gap 2 --temp-target 76 --temp-overheat 83 --temp-cutoff 90

What is power consumption for n-factor coins? I mean is there a difference comparing to usual scrypt coins?

Unchanged for "low" NFactor coins - say N=4 to N=12 or so. When you start getting to N=13 and N=14, you can mine effectively with low power GPU's, and configure your GPU to use fewer shaders for the amount of memory you have.

That sounds interesting. Could you go a little more into detail plz. What would that mean in terms of power consumption? What do you mean with "low power GPUs"?

Can anyone help me getting vertminer-0.5.2 working with a R9-280x GPU?
Using the following CFG file:
{
"pools" : [
   {
      "url" : "stratum+tcp://vtc.give-me-coins.com:3337",
      "user" : "usao.GPU1",
      "pass" : "x"
   }
]
,
"intensity" : "8",
"worksize" : "256",
"lookup-gap" : "2",
"gpu-threads" : "1",
"expiry" : "30",
"scan-time" : "5"
}
Getting the following errors:
Error -4: Enqueueing kernel onto command queue.
GPU0 faulre, disabling!

Do you actually think it's too late to mine this coin?

I haven't mined a thing from this coin, but I'm not sure whether I should jump in now (as the n-factor is probably too high)

im pretty sure VTC is going to be what litecoin is now

This.

If it isn't #2 it will be #3.

Vert kills all advantages that Litecoin offers
