Do you have a proof?

i get 840 h/s from a 290 and using 230-240 watts from wall. i used to mine xmr with my 750 rig and each card was getting 280h/s  using70-80 watts from the wall .So you need to get 3 750s to get same h/s as 290.That means nvidia beaten by amd  

p.s. i can post screenshots

What are your settings for the 290 to get a hashrate that high?

1150 core 1500 mem

Is it 290 no X?

is it worth to buy digital ocean droplets to mine monero?


I believe at one time it was. I did the math a few weeks ago, and it's a losing proposition now for CPU mining. A cloud service with CPU+GPU mining could be a different story, but you'd probably break even, at best.

Which is a darn good way to buy XMR with a credit card, by the way.

is Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E5-2630 [email protected] good for mining monero?

Cores:6
Logical Processors:12
L1:348KB
L2:1.5MB
L3:15.0MB

You will need to experiment with number of threads to maximize your hash rate. Probably 7-8, but do let us know.

Is it better to mine XMR with AMD or nVidia cards? There are GPU miners for both already, but which of the two are more profitable?
amd  better for xmr

Nothing from AMD can currently beat a nVidia 750Ti for hashrate per watt of electricity consumed.
Do you have a proof?

i get 840 h/s from a 290 and using 230-240 watts from wall. i used to mine xmr with my 750 rig and each card was getting 280h/s  using70-80 watts from the wall .So you need to get 3 750s to get same h/s as 290.That means nvidia beaten by amd

lol you said

Using your numbers those 3 750s would use 210-240 watts from the wall, which is less than what you claim for AMD
after you are said they are equal .Now you change your statement saying

What part of "hashrate per watt of electricity consumed" is not clear?

1. It wasn't me who made the original statement. I simply objected to you butchering the numbers.

2. The original claim (not from me). "Nothing from AMD can currently beat a nVidia 750Ti for hashrate per watt of electricity consumed."  You haven't cited anything to contradict that. In fact your numbers agree with it!

really?i think you cant understand the fact that you need to get 18 750s which means 3 rigs (6 cards per rig)to get the same hash as 1 amd rig.Means 3x cpu, 3x mobo, 3x ram etc. Now go back to elementary school and learn times table or get help from here:

What part of "hashrate per watt of electricity consumed" is not clear?

Using your numbers, AMD does not beat NV on that basis. If you want to talk about convenience of physically smaller rigs, etc. that is another question. I do suggest you say away from the hard math-y stuff with actual numbers though.

Did i explain you anything different?
I know you wont get it but i repeat again.
If i  pay more $ for  3x nvidia rigs  where i can get the same hashrate ,same electric usage ,with 1 amd rig with  lower $ that means amd>nvidia

Using your numbers those 3 750s would use 210-240 watts from the wall, which is less than what you claim for AMD, and total 840 h/s, which is the same as your AMD.

Suggest you do not pursue any math related career.
