I'm really sorry, guys, but i'm getting completely lost.Too much discussions here, website is not allowing to search quickly, help? Found a LOT of websites devoted to Monero, what should i read if i'm really interested in mining, but not really experienced in altcoins? Got it that there is no GUI, but that's about it.
Step-by-step, is there something like that?

Are you looking to CPU mine or GPU mine. Pool mine or solo mine. Pool mining recommended unless you are: a) playing it like a lottery, b) mining to support the network and don't really care if you get an immediate reward, or c) mining on a large scale (several dozen computers/GPUs at least).

Thanks for response! I was looking for pool, and i found Minergate, looks like okay one. No problems with finding pool. But i have some problems with creating a wallet, i met words like simplewallet and cryptonotewallet, but i have no idea how to set all things and need some guide, that's all.
I really wanted to try some cryptonote coin, red a lot, chose monero, but didn't expect so much different monero websites and absence of GUI.

Now that we are starting to see some rumors about AMD's next line up. How do you think they will fare against the maxwell cards?

Is there going to be a change in the prefered mining cards with R9 390X? Saw something about it being 50% faster then 290x but consuming alot of power.

Thanks for the cpu pointer!

I'm getting an error running the pool software. Here's what I do, each in its own tmux pane:

1. sudo ./bitmonerod
2. sudo ./simplewallet --wallet=x --password=x
3. redis-server
4. node init.js

After I type in "node init.js" I get this error:

Code:

module.js:322
    throw err;
          ^

Error: Cannot find module '/home/me/pool/node_modules/init.js'

   at Function.Module.runMain (module.js:485:10)
   at startup (node.js:112:16)
   at node.js:865:3

The init.js file is at /home/me/pool/init.js

Any ideas?

[UPDATE]...about 30 minutes later:

I copied /home/me/pool/init.js to /home/me/pool/node_modules/init.js and then ran node init.js from the /home/me/pool/ directory, and now I get this error:

Code:

...and this block of error messages keeps repeating. Any ideas?

I have a few low to mid-range CPUs and am going to set up a private pool tonight for these using this:

https://github.com/zone117x/node-cryptonote-pool

Can the computer that is hosting the private pool also use some of its cores to mine to its own XMR address? If so, how?

This is very bad idea to hash on pool server.

Ok - thanks! I'll put the pool on a PC with less CPU power and save the strong CPUs for mining.

For solo you can enable share trust to save cpu time on validation too.

Hi, Fellow, Miners!

We are closing down this pool, because our hashrate could not keep up with the server cost for too long.
All miners have been paid out.

We recommend using one of the pools on this topic:
https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/xmr-monero-a-secure-private-untraceable-cryptocurrency-583449:

Good luck mining!

Hello, I pushed tiny fix for cpuminer-multi to get rid of stratum disconnects.

Increased timeout to 5 minutes to get rid of disconnects if there are no blocks in a network for 2 minutes or solved shares. Clean way to handle this issue instead of cheating on pool side with stupid job retransmission.

Does anybody have step by step on how to run a rig through your own node. Like being able to use Claymore or CCminer and not the built in simple miner.

I think you need a guide for creating a pool essentially.

https://github.com/zone117x/node-cryptonote-pool

the readme in there will prolly help yah.

Thanks

anyone tried the gtx 960?

Thinking about upgrading my mining rig and looking at the 750 ti or gtx 960 depending on hash/watt.

Anyone using gtx970? I am looking for the best config/miner for this card (incl. possible overclocking without kill the card within a year).

My current miner is giving me something about 400 H/s, is that ok?

I am mining using a single card (I know it won't make me rich or something but I have access to low priced kw/h so why not?

Thanks.

yeah, the 750 ti spits out 250 - 280. So, if you compare the number of cores between the two, it probably makes sense.

is there a list of current CPU miners for XMR?

AFAIK

simple wallet built into the protocol
LucasJones the original miner
Wolf optimized LucasJones except for non AES-NI
Yam with donation to Yam
Claymore with donation to Claymore

I want to know how you set up to mine for yourself. I have a rig and another machine I mine with now and pull about 4 - 4.5KH/s I've mined on pools since late August.

Does anyone have a step by step instruction of how to set this up. Both machines are running Windows.

I've heard people on different Monero mining forums talk about this some have suggested it but I'm not the most gifted computer person by any means.

From what I understand you might make a few more XMR because you are not paying out fees to the pool.

Any in depth clarity on this would be very much appreciated, and please assume I'm an idiot as I said before not the most gifted computer person.

I think you need to run an instance of this pool, and connect your gpu miners to it:
https://github.com/zone117x/node-cryptonote-pool

Afaik this is only going to run on linux (I guess if you can build redis on windows it could work...mebbe), and you have to set up the database backend yourself, and if you have a shitty internet connection you might get more orphans than normal. If you want to support a nice small pool (run by hegemoOn, who is always on irc and runs one of the only open bitmonerod nodes for people who want to run a "light-weight" wallet), you should check out http://monero.coolmining.club/ ... we are stuck on a block for like a week now, could use some support

Thanks for this. I'll look into setting it up. I'm running on monerohash.com right now and we are also like 8 days without finding a block.
