Topic: [WTS] Feeler: KNC Titan(s) (Read 1758 times)

If I were you, I'd seriously consider that offer..

How about 20k $ ?

Your absolutely correct, a machine went down in the recent stats (then an orphan, then 5 hours for 3 coins), sometimes you go on a tear, some time your mining for hours until you get an LTC. The one down side to Titans, is they don't "spin like a top" necessarily, but they’re certainly the best available.

We haven't had much luck mining altcoins with these machines.


Typically We have between 0%-.4%, I would estimate ~0.15% mean.

Anywho, back on topic. The machines are worth more than $3K shipped as a farm with ample PSU's and custom FW. I'll keep this open for another week or so and when LTC goes above $5 and stays consistent at .012-.016 BTC, we'll reassess for the new year.

Thanks to everyone for the civil discourse, it's quite nice!

For me it was about selling, because if I could get that kind of return the money wouldn't fly out of my wallet fast enough.  Plus it would mean I was making some poor choices in my pool selection - either way, I think this info would be interesting for anyone considering the Titan.


What you're talking about on Ghash is just variance - no magic there.  Your good days are going to be offset by the bad ones, and the average is going to be what all the mining calculators show - the trick is that with scrypt, there's always the possibility to make some crazy short term gains working with altcoins... That's why I think it's kept in the game while most of the other crypto's haven't.

As far as the value, for me it's always based on the revenue the thing can generate.   In terms of performance, the Titan is still #1 more than a year later, which is crazy in crypto-currency time.  The premium is too much for me though, as my power rates are nice and low, especially this time of year.

SFards is no factor, never sold enough, plagued with problems and low hash rate.

Ghash has been quite inconsistent and you'll have that with the F2POOL's and BTCLTC's out there. Over the last 36 hours we're only pulling about 1.25LTC (@ 3.5% share) an hour, which is misleading to its performance...we've had better days for sure. The only complaint of this pool is sometime they'll be down for a 1/2 day and spike in orphans which can skew long term returns.

Again, I'm just "feeling" what the community is the true value of these guys as SFARDS was a complete commercial farce.

i think we should stick to the selling topic guys, altho i admit , the offtopic was intresting

You know old habit of buying BTC/LTC gear w/o thinking much, lol. I do have 3 S7s which I am planning to send off to Toomim bros soon for hosting. I am looking at the calculator and it seems no ROI even if you buy them at $1000 per Titan.

Ouch! It will be like 2 years before you make back that $3K.  Why didnt you get a SHA256 ASIC instead?

My reject rate on there was pretty much on par with other sites, although the way they display stale's is kind of misleading - it's on a graph that is also showing hash rate, which kind of implies that they're subtracting one from the other, but I don't think that's the case as I had a high hour of stale and it didn't seem to effect the percentage of payout for that period.

Either way, I won't be using ghash anytime soon, NiceHash or CleverMining are my goto pools...

Also don't forget ghash.io's totally BS reduced hash rate due to stale and rejected shares. THey have been known to have extemely high reject/stale rates which borders fraud...

So I mined on ghash now for about 15 hours and here's my results:

In their 7-8 minute shifts, I was consistently generating ~14000000 of ~500000000 shares, which amounts to between 2.7% and 3.0% of their total hash (listed as 'Your Score').  I typically had between 0.2% and 0.3% rejected shares, and the pool was running at ~70Gh/s (I was ~2.1GH/s of this) the whole time I was there.

As of right now (I just stopped), I have 8.8 LTC in the wallet, and 1.4 LTC waiting for confirmation, so 10.2 LTC or basically 0.68 LTC/hour.  Based on this I should have made 17 LTC/day which is almost exactly $60... So what did your Titan do during this period, and how do your specific numbers match up with mine?  I could see variance giving you a 45 LTC day once in a blue moon, but your average should be what all the calculators say, which is 26 LTC/day.

I will say this, I hate ghash - I remember why I don't use them... They're PPLNS, which is fine and their realtime data is interesting, but their payout system with cex.io is weak.  No autopay, and the pool claims 0% fees, but you get charged to transfer out of cex.io, so there's your fee.  Also, their header values are lagged and don't really reflect exactly what's happening - for instance, it says I have 1.4 LTC pending, but looking at the last block history, I'm pretty sure I have 2.1 LTC pending... I think this is probably why I ended up leaving 3 LTC back here when I first tested it out.  Either way, the return is more than 10% less than nicehash, so that's where my boxes go back to play.

That's what I'm wondering. Unless he's mining alts and playing the market he won't be earning more than $3K per months with 2.5GH.

I would like to know what kind of return you get. I initially pointed my Titan to ghash but return was similar or less than litecoinpool so I am back to litecoinpool.

Ok, I've redirected all my machines over to there to get a comparison... I'm running 2.2Gh/s (they're reporting 2.17Gh/s) so I shouldn't be that far off from your number... I actually had 3.35 LTC sitting on there already I guess from when I was testing it out a long time ago, so either way I'm up! 

TBH I'll be amazed if that's the kind of return I get on there, as it's almost 2x of what I'm currently getting off of NiceHash.  I picked their LTC+DOGE pool, as their Multipool doesn't look to be performing that interestingly at least right now - this is the one you're using, correct?

Also, are you sure you don't mean you're grossing $5000?  Right now 45 LTC/day is roughly $4,750/month, and LTC is up relative to the last few weeks.

Just trying to reconcile this - I just bought another GH of scrypt last week (hopefully will get it this coming week), but if I can get that kind of return on GHash, then I'll be looking to expand even further.  Everything I have is Terminators, but it sure would be nice to add a couple Titans to the mix.

Ghash.io. 45 LTC / day.

You're correct, we net $5000 a month, but the power is prepaid.

Yeah, I'd love to know what pool that is - I mine on Nicehash and have a bit less hash than you (2.2GH/s), and I gross ~$80/day.  I'm running exclusively Terminator's, so my power cost is like 3x of yours, but even still I'm just interested in the gross numbers, so if you CLEAR $5k, then that means you're grossing $6-7k?

What coin are you mining if you don't mind me asking and help a fellow miner? I am barely getting 3.5 LTC/day before electricity with my 350- 370 MHz 4 cube at litecoinpool bought under 3k from eBay with all functional dies. After paying for electricity I am looking at 1.5 LTC/day 

Each of the 6 cube machines has 1 dead die, it's over clocked and has been a stallion with two Eva 1300's

We clear $5k a month with expensive power.  $25k is a talking point.

How much do You want for all 32 cubes?
