crap haha.. 2sec

GregoryGHarding · · #3300

cpuminer-multi-rel1.3

Kirbyfez · · #3301

okay, done.. so. i add the stuff in the json file.. done.. now what?

GregoryGHarding · · #3302

run cpuminer-x64

GregoryGHarding · · #3303

if all goes right u should see the worker op up on your earnings page

Kirbyfez · · #3304

ooooh

GregoryGHarding · · #3305

good?

Kirbyfez · · #3306

calculating hashrate :D so yea its working

GregoryGHarding · · #3307

i take payment in chocolate or DOGE

GregoryGHarding · · #3308

lol kidding

GregoryGHarding · · #3309

you should have printout in command window of your per CPU hash rate and will show if you find a share

Kirbyfez · · #3310

hahahaha

Kirbyfez · · #3311

around 8 kH/s :P lol

GregoryGHarding · · #3312

if you want to mine x11 instead of scrypt just change that in your json and restart

Kirbyfez · · #3313

which has more success? :P

GregoryGHarding · · #3314

scrpty is more profitable but you will get higher hashrate on x11

Kirbyfez · · #3315

well how long would it takes ish with 8 kH/s to find anything at all haha..

GregoryGHarding · · #3316

is that per core or all together

Kirbyfez · · #3317

lol.. its that bad huh?.. thats put together.. i’m getting about 2 per thread

GregoryGHarding · · #3318

just try changing a=x11 amd "algo" to x11

GregoryGHarding · · #3319

and

Kirbyfez · · #3320

Getting around 210 now

GregoryGHarding · · #3321

:)

Kirbyfez · · #3322

btw, any of guys looked into mining Sia?

GregoryGHarding · · #3323

forums died for me for a short time there

GregoryGHarding · · #3324

server got a bad network card

Kirbyfez · · #3325

was here as well so guess its a site issue

GregoryGHarding · · #3326

sia is a sloud storage paid crypto right

GregoryGHarding · · #3327

youre paid in sia for adding your storage devices to their cloud?

Kirbyfez · · #3328

hmm, not sure.. but i just mine it at least.. started a bit today.. just to try it out..

Kirbyfez · · #3329

gpu mining

lilbob · · #3330

greetz u geniuses, iare new

GregoryGHarding · · #3331

ive only been here for 2 weeks lol

lilbob · · #3332

i started out in back 2014, and found a new use for these old machines thaks to prohashing :) u guys rule

GregoryGHarding · · #3333

http://sia[dot]tech/get-started/

GregoryGHarding · · #3334

ive got a block of 10 old android phones mining x11 lol plus some gpu and cpu mining

lilbob · · #3335

i got a HD 6970 and a r9 380 working

GregoryGHarding · · #3336

i also ordered few of those 22kh/s usb single asic miners

GregoryGHarding · · #3337

220*

lilbob · · #3338

geting some gridlock orbs in from a secondary source

GregoryGHarding · · #3339

a gridseed now goes for like 160. not bad

lilbob · · #3340

er ya sry gridseed lol, not grid lock

GregoryGHarding · · #3341

lol

lilbob · · #3342

on ebay, even eith 60 bucks shipping, its a bargain

GregoryGHarding · · #3343

aliexpress free shipping $180

GregoryGHarding · · #3344

8mh/s scrypt i beleive

lilbob · · #3345

*er, 5 peices, 60 shipping to my zone

GregoryGHarding · · #3346

ah free to canada lol

lilbob · · #3347

i are in swissland, so im talking orbs even not blades

GregoryGHarding · · #3348

orbs are the 6 asic gold heatsinked things right?

lilbob · · #3349

but darn it, 120 bucks, for 5 orbs, to get em here...

lilbob · · #3350

at 10 bucks a peice the shipping kills me]

lilbob · · #3351

ya thats the ones 5 chips

lilbob · · #3352

i got friggin lucky on that ebay guy though, from factory direct, even on dhgate, its 40 bucks a pop

lilbob · · #3353

if any of you guys have a source for old orbs im a small individual, looking to get 12 mh max out of orbs at 7w per peice...

lilbob · · #3354

ihave seqarched high and large in euro internets and i cannot find em for sale

Kirbyfez · · #3355

anyone tried one of these: Bitmain AntRouter R1-LTC Litecoin Scrypt ASIC Miner

lilbob · · #3356

i seen em.. but watt compared to a gridseed :?

lilbob · · #3357

i mran 7 watt compared to a full powered

lilbob · · #3358

then it is truely a space, vs livingconditions/temp

lilbob · · #3359

im sry ill stfu

GregoryGHarding · · #3360

i cant find them cheak anymore

GregoryGHarding · · #3361

i used to be able to find them for 40 but theyve doubled in the last month

GregoryGHarding · · #3362

the gridseed 8mh's blades are the only thing holding their price because they need external power

GregoryGHarding · · #3364

mining server down

Kirbyfez · · #3365

Been mining for quite a few hours now but still on the earning page it just says calculating hash rate and no fields are filled out(except live worker (1)).. is it supposed to be like that?

Kirbyfez · · #3366

is it just only supposed to show speed per thread and some times x11 block then some numbers? thats it.. nothing else.. no accepted share or anything like that

Kirbyfez · · #3367

What’s actually supposed to show in the cmd window? for me it just says the speed per thread and once a minute some block info x11 numbers then dif numbers.. no accepted share ever or anything like that

Chris Sokolowski · · #3368

@Kirbyfez are you using the "a=x11" password argument? You need that or else the system will think your miner is scrypt and will reject your x11 shares.

Kirbyfez · · #3369

Yepp, a=x11 is on

Kirbyfez · · #3370

{ "url" : "stratum+tcp://prohashing.com:3333", "user" : "kirbyfez", "pass" : "n=worker a=x11", "algo" : "x11", "threads" : 0, "cpu-priority" : 0, "cpu-affinity" : -1, "diff-multiplier" : 256, "benchmark" : false, "debug" : false, "protocol": false, "quiet" : false }

Kirbyfez · · #3371

Can it be that my hash rate it so small that its just not having any gain at all?

Chris Sokolowski · · #3372

What hardware are you using to mine?

Forum notification · · #3373

has started a new topic: Payout strategy

Kirbyfez · · #3374

oh i’m just using my own laptop.. it’s crap haha... just really trying out for fun hitting about 250 kH/s only

Chris Sokolowski · · #3375

I would suggest setting the lowest manual difficulty possible then. We do have automatic difficulty adjustment, but your miner has to submit a few shares for us to estimate your hashrate before the difficulty will be lowered. With such a low hashrate, there won’t be enough shares submitted at the default difficulty for the automatic difficulty to work.

Chris Sokolowski · · #3376

You will earn the same amount of money regardless of the difficulty though.

Kirbyfez · · #3377

"diff-multiplier" : 256, thats that one? so what should i put it on?

Forum notification · · #3378

has started a new topic: NiceHash negative delta

lilbob · · #3379

O be careful with laptop cpu mining, if it overheats even a little, it will slow the machine down forever

GregoryGHarding · · #3380

@Kirbyfez :  add "d=512" to your password argument

GregoryGHarding · · #3381

{ "url" : "stratum+tcp://prohashing.com:3333", "user" : "kirbyfez", "pass" : "n=worker a=x11 d=512", "algo" : "x11", "threads" : 0, "cpu-priority" : 0, "cpu-affinity" : -1, "diff-multiplier" : 256, "benchmark" : false, "debug" : false, "protocol": false, "quiet" : false }

GregoryGHarding · · #3382

@Chris Sokolowski : </strong> or can d= go lower than 512.. or what is 512 equal to in x11 diff settings?

GregoryGHarding · · #3383

@Kirbyfez :  "diff-multiplier" : 256, try removing this from your json completly and see if it will run, if not put it back in and change it to 1

piet · · #3384

d=256 wont run, this will turn into 4096

GregoryGHarding · · #3385

nobody wrote d=256 the diff-multiplier is software specific

Kirbyfez · · #3386

its working after i put the diff multiplier to 1

GregoryGHarding · · #3387

8-)

GregoryGHarding · · #3388

did you use d=512 in your password

Kirbyfez · · #3389

due to my crappy hardware tho, i think i might make more out of just mining Quark..

GregoryGHarding · · #3390

you dont have to now

Kirbyfez · · #3391

dont have to what

GregoryGHarding · · #3392

put d=512 in your password arguments

Kirbyfez · · #3393

yea didnt do that.. just changed the diff multipier

GregoryGHarding · · #3394

awesome

GregoryGHarding · · #3395

let the shares roll

GregoryGHarding · · #3396

your best chance at profitability is a profitability switching pool prohashing is your best bet

Kirbyfez · · #3397

still barely anything.. running all day.. 0.00000071btc... with quark i can get around 100 coins a day.. choices choices choices

GregoryGHarding · · #3398

dont collect in btc

Kirbyfez · · #3399

what should i collect in then?
