Find a custom bios for those AMD 480s.

My XFX REFERENCE cards produce ~725 h/s each on -h 1024.

Also note the custom bios that can be found will reduce your power draw vs stock cards. So its a win-win

Cheers BTCBusinessConsult

I am keeping my eyes peeled! Sadly haven't stumbled on one yet, so in the mean time playing with Wattman settings

H97 Anniversary
6x RX 480 ASUS OC Dual

Power draw is about 850.

Each card is producing 580-590H/s on Claymore

All cards are stock, for now

Happy to listen to any suggestions for increasing the hash rate! Cheesy

Hi again,

is there a page that publishes results for different cards, and monero ( cryptonight ?)
alternatively, is there a way to calculate hashrate you get from another coin ( eth, litecoin, etc ), what you'll get for monero ?

I want to be informed well, before buying 'new' stuff, which will be difficult enough, as I have to import all.

What is needed to run a node, concerning mem/proccessor(s)/diskspace/ net bandwith ?

what is needed, just to hash, let's, let's say per card installed.

And what do I need to have installed, to get a Linux machine working, and not really into soft from pages that launch you at their pool at once.

First steps will be some experimenting, and like said, I can get a nice board to start, with nice processor, and an offer for 3 Titans ( not the X)
As I see, the Nvidia gtx690 has some 3000+ cuda cores, that should be a nice option as well ?

thanks for further advice guys

Hello Gingerale,

two questions

1) what works better ? Radeons, or Nvidea's ? R390 seems really cheaper then Titan (x).

2) How works Titan (6GB) vs. Titan x (12GB)? surely, the Titan has less cores then the Titan X .

I'm looking for a std board with min. 4 Pci-e slots. Found one with a Xeon 12 core.

laters ?

1. Radeon's get higher hashrate. Nvidias are more efficient (less electricity).

2. No idea re: titan. The miner software was written on Maxwell architecture. I think titan is the previous generation.

And sorry,
One more question.
How's the hashrate from monero, if you look to other coins, like etherium, etc.

I found this list, that publishes hashrate, but for a lot different scripts
http://www.mininghwcomparison.com/list/ only a few for scryptonight, what should be monero ?

I don't know what you mean by this question. Monero uses a different algorithm than ethereum etc. Hashrates not comparable.

New here !

Hmm, was looking around, and you guys say, you get a measli 2kh/s from those video cards.
Yet, as I'm seeing to join, I checked for one of the light machines, to join, and they rate a 'stupid' GT520 @ 14/20Kh/s ?
As where I live, it's hard to get decent processors, it's or Celeron, or I3, or Sempron, so, I actually have two machines running Linux 64Bit, with GT520 cards. rated at 14/20Kh/s, they should do not that bad ?

Can you guys point me around a bit, where you can exchange, if it's needed to join a pool , and so on.

thanks

Those numbers seem way off for those cards.

Exchange is polonoex. Pool list can be found on monerohash.com

Can i use exhange wallet mining monero? what is monero payment id?

You cannot mine directly to an exchange with Monero except on very few pools but you'll have to pay 0.1 XMR per withdrawal.
Monero payment ID is what you need to deposit on an exchange. Without payment ID, any deposit is lost.

Just moved into a new flat and electricity's free for a few weeks so I'm running ccminer on a Gigabyte GTX 770 OC which yields a measly 0.25khs. Also using the spare CPU cycles on a dedicated box in a datacentre with minerd which adds another 0.15khs. In total, this could actually cover the cost of the dedibox at the end of the month, not that bad when you think about it.

Lucky you.

xmr was very good with 290's in the mid of 2014, not now.

It quite good right now. It's one of the only alternative to ETH.

Just curious, how profitable is it to mine monero with r9 290, how many coins can it mine per week ?

Check this spreadsheet to estimate your hashrate :
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1MI-ic0Os25hgGUImW54sUIjZY_pUNQNa_W8Se5pRGBs/edit#gid=1726706747

Then go on a mining pool and use the Estimate Mining Profit tool :
http://monero.crypto-pool.fr/

Example :

Be aware that it is only an estimate, global hashrate may fluctuate a lot.
Also, every GPU have a different hashrate depending on the specific model (memory type and cooling) and mining conditions (cooling, connection stability).

With 700 hash/s the estimate give 1.05 XMR per week but I don't think that you will reach 1 XMR with a r9 290.

which algorythm is needed for monero mining?
scrypt?

The algorithm is cryptonight. You can mine with either CPU or GPU.

mining with 3 rigs curently.

4x 7970 - 2200h/s (undervolted)
3x 280x - 1600h/s (stock)
2x 280x - 1100h/s (stock)

total power draw is about 980w

holding all my mined xmr for now.

your power consumption is only 1kw, per 9 cards on cryptonight?
did you undervolt, or what is your settings?

It would be a huge benefit to mankind if proof of work could be accomplished by generating usable power, rather than by consuming it. Inverse hash-cash is a much better mining incentive, and overcomes the centralizing influences of scale created by hash-cash. I seriously doubt this can be done, given the laws of thermodynamics as we know them, but hey, one can never invent if one blinker's one's fancy.

Maybe specialised miners for heating purpose, we can turn that on in winter and shut down during summer. Some are in the north, some are in the south.
