We' ve mad a nice graph for the vtc price

http://vtcinfo.com/


Can you point this to Bter now instead?

No sense encouraging people to go to closed exchange.

mobo- Asrock 970 extreme 4 has a built in reset & power button, if you look at a good pic of the motherboard you can see them, so you won't need anything.  I have the same board.
And if you didn't, another option besides a paperclip: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00DGZ1NU2/ref=oh_details_o06_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

i have been crying here several times how p2pool was not consistently paying me.  i would get on the payout list and all of the sudden i would be off it, even though i kept mining throughout.

i decided to create my own node and see what happens.  i have mined all night last night, and not once did i get off the payout list.  i have consistently been getting payouts, FOR EVERY BLOCK!

if you are getting shit results from p2p, just create your own node!  i run mine on virtual box instance of linux.  it was a bit strange setting it up but once i got it up and running, it has been smooth sailing with P2P!

one thing i noticed is that my miner shows a SHIT TON of HW and zero WU.  i thought it was a problem, but the payouts are coming in so maybe it something with my node config.  if anyone could shed some light on this, i would be grateful.  i am the only miner on my node, if that helps.

Does anyone have a solo mining profitability calc for VTC?

Seriously, come join any P2Pool. You'll get most of your hashes and straight to your wallet. No risk of pool downtime/owner run.
Choose one or two with lowest ping
URL is address on that scanner, username your VTC address, random password.

Happy days, i just ordered the mobo for my first altcoin rig :-)

Do you know the spec you are going for yet? I really need to try and figure out a good rig for mining vert.

Hi there,

Yes, i am going for the following

mobo- Asrock 970 extreme 4
AMD Sempron 145 cpu
r9 280x  x3
psu -Seasonix x series 1250w '80 plus'
8 gb ram
Then will throw in one of the 250gb hd's i have laying around (running windows)
And i will have to work out a crate/frame/ etc to put it in
And put a power switch on it somehow- Any advise here?



Are you using 3 GPUs?  1250w is a lot.

I would go with a FX cpu with that AM3+ socket on that mobo.  They're cheap enough to justify the cost.  You can cpu mine at the same time you are GPU mining.  I got quite a few Max coins on the FX, and even a couple on an old Phenom ii.  

Hi there, i open to advice, will look at the FX cpu, seems sensible to mine on the cpu at the same time tbh.
What psu would you reccomend for the 3 GPU'S? i was just under the impression, the more power the better, but if i can save some cash, i'm happy to listen!

1250w is fine if you're going to run 3 gpus.  I always checkout http://www.hardwaresecrets.com/ for things like PSUs.  They tear down parts and figure out who is using good components and who is using shit.  There are only a couple manufacturers that make the PSUs for every company in the world, so make sure the model you're getting is made by a decent one.  Never use crap like a Rosewill, especially for a mining rig. The PSU is the one part that can kill your cards and CPU.



Thanks for the help, one other question, will i need powered risers for this set-up, if so could you post a link for reccomended ones, i have heard horror stories regarding these?

I would skip those for the time being.  They aren't needed unless you are having heat or space issues.  Build your rig, run it for a few days, and go from there.  No point in over complicating things, especially if it's your first build

Ok, so just plug them into the mobo as normal then?

Yes. 

You asked about putting a power switch on the board, so I am assuming you aren't using a case.  You shouldn't have any heat issues if your house is airconditioned and you point a little fan at them.  Also, you can turn the computer on and off without a switch.  You just have to jump it with a paperclip or something.

House is not air conditioned, but i live in the U.K so it should be cold enough! lol, good idea re:paperclip- thanks for that mate!
Will build it in an open rack type thing, and put a fan over it, and see how that goes.

I lived in London for a few years, so I know what you mean.  Keep an eye on the temps.  Playing with the config files and a slight underclock can do wonders sometimes.  The underclock sounds counter productive, but sometimes the trade off of a few KH/s is worth lowering the temps.

Good luck with the build!

Cheers, i wil let you know how i get on!
