Worth talking to bitmain about it before warrenty expires?

nimbus · · #16096

failed pool status DEAD ! even with proxy

nimbus · · #16097

obviously PH is not for me :(

Mrrt · · #16098

@Raab LMFAO I wouldn’t trust the manufacturer to do jack

mycide · · #16099

when they make this chips, mass production they all get quciik benched with current to see how they perform they are then sorted by rating, some will overperform maybe 10% and they will be put aside, then ones perofmring on spot or just above sorts another. and so on, sub standard, and then the ones so bad they cant be used. this is how they sort out chips, so if they did it correctly all ur chips should be reasonably reliable, but if u try to put more hashing power out of a chip then it can handle, while the other chips sitting on same board can handle more, some chips will get errors.

mycide · · #16100

have no experience on how it effects lifespan on machine.

mycide · · #16101

i wouldnt think it would matter much as long as u dont keep cranking it

Mrrt · · #16102

In my experience, as soon as things start getting weird you can expect boards/parts to start dieing shortly thereafter

Raab · · #16103

right, so if I turn the ferquency up a bit it shouldn't effect it even though everyone says overclocking kills it?

Mrrt · · #16104

wouldn’t overclock unless I had AC going or super extra bonus fans exhausing hot air

Raab · · #16105

the temp readings on the antminer interface say my chips sit at roughly 61 degrees constantly

Raab · · #16106

if it is below 70 would that be an issue?

Mrrt · · #16107

I have read that 80 - 85 C shouldn’t be exceeded..

Raab · · #16108

I am moving to the Alps where it is average -20 degrees C for about 3/4 months and so looking to over clock then in about 5 months...

Mrrt · · #16109

Sound’s like you should be good

Mrrt · · #16110

I’m just a little concerned about being able to boil water on my ASIC’s LOL

Raab · · #16111

surely it cant be good for them to be run at 75 instead of 60 the whole time though?

wisdomofsol · · #16112

@Raab :  once it reaches steady state and you keep it there is more important

wisdomofsol · · #16113

restart as little as possible to avoid expansion and contraction of the board which can cause more wear than simply overclocking them and leaving them be

has started a new topic: Antminer L3+ connection problem

mmfiore · · #16117

I connected my miners back in today and I am monitoring the production.

mmfiore · · #16118

So far the stats do not look good.

mmfiore · · #16119

PH site says I should be generating a minimum of 150 dollars and a maximum conservative estimate of 185 dollars

mickeekung · · #16120

52376 Unconfirmed Transactions Live updating list of new bitcoin transactions

mmfiore · · #16121

so far I am earning at a rate that will only generate 112 dollars per day. Something is still wrong.

mickeekung · · #16122

Not wonder why transaction comes slow than before.

mmfiore · · #16123

thats 30 73 dollars below what I should be earning

mmfiore · · #16124

I suggest that other people check what you are earning per hour and see if it is lower than what PH predicts.

Damito · · #16125

With 2 L3+ (~1GH/s total) I’ve seen just under 0.002BTC earned in 2hrs of uptime so far; extrapolating out will take me to ~0.024BTC/day which is lower than I’d prefer but seems fairly normal.

mmfiore · · #16126

I was getting double the income from other pools.

mickeekung · · #16127

@mmfiore Which pool? Nicehash?

Damito · · #16128

@mmfiore how are you calculating your earnings and estimated daily projections

mmfiore · · #16129

yes nh

mmfiore · · #16130

@damito according to my calculations PH predicts at 10.5 cents per mhs you will earn 150

Maxumark · · #16131

So nimbus Did you get them working?

mmfiore · · #16132

@ damito so what you are actualling earning is $4.32 an hour is 103.68

mmfiore · · #16133

you are nearly 50 dollars off

mmfiore · · #16134

now that is max value you can earn

Damito · · #16135

@mmfiore I do all my calcs in BTC because BTC/USD exchange changes so rapidly; with 1GH/s online, I should see ~0.024BTC today which is around $104.

mmfiore · · #16136

85 is the minimum you should earn

Damito · · #16137

PH past 7 days avg. daily per frontpage chart is ~0.0209BTC/day for 1GH/s scrypt online, so I’m trending above that and on par with NH past 24 hr daily avg (0.0233BTC per NH frontpage)

mmfiore · · #16138

Well I know that before the attacks on ph several weeks ago I was making between 200 and 300 and now am at about a 3rd of that.

mmfiore · · #16139

I averaged at 200 a day at nh

Damito · · #16140

That is fair, earnings used to be significantly higher across the board; on 7/23 I earned 0.040BTC on the same hashrate but with difficulty increasing across the board earnings everywhere are down significantly

nimbus · · #16141

yippe finally i connected one miner to PH

mmfiore · · #16142

What coin are you getting paid with.

Damito · · #16143

@mmfiore my payout is currently 100% BTC

Damito · · #16144

@nimbus congrats! Good news indeed. :)

nimbus · · #16145

guys do you know how to add multiple miner to PH ??

nimbus · · #16146

thanks mate i am so happy

mmfiore · · #16147

You are getting 100 dollars a day for 1 ghz that is not bad so I should be getting according to your calc about $230

nimbus · · #16148

but i have problem with add more miner

Damito · · #16149

@mmfiore but even if my payout were in other coins, need to identify a benchmark of some sort and using fiat is going to be rough because exchange rate swings so widely (esp when including various coins)

mmfiore · · #16150

I will see but so far that does not appear to be the case.

mmfiore · · #16151

earlier today I was getting bitconnect coin and the numbers were much worse so I switched to btc and things improved.

Damito · · #16152

Always variation, and possible my next few hours will suck and yours will be awesome.

Damito · · #16153

@nimbus what’s your issue with add’l miners?

mmfiore · · #16154

@nimbus just use different name for each miner in the password field

mmfiore · · #16155

"n=Miner1" is an example "n=Miner2" etc...

nimbus · · #16156

thanks guys obviously you have to use different names for each miner i finally added all miners to PH HAPPY :D

really low humidity in the alp (french side) and very cold - so ideal

mmfiore · · #16158

If miners in a room then as they run the humidity will be removed from the room because of the heat they put out.

mycide · · #16159

yep, as long as you done replace that air with humid air from outside to fast, if you do so

Raab · · #16160

yea, but the outside air is very dry - even when it is snowing, humidity is generally very low so I think ideal for overclocking - keeping the temp down and getting more for your money. I am wondering whether to set it to 400 now instead of 384 for an extra 20MH

Raab · · #16161

found this from someone who has already done it: ASIC, Mhz Power, W Hash rate, MH/s 384 Mhz 740 W 502 MH/s 400 Mhz 760 W 523 MH/s 425 Mhz n.a. 555 MH/s 444 Mhz 850 W 580 MH/s 450 Mhz 860 W 590 MH/s 462 Mhz 888 W 605 MH/s

i did the same thing this morning and saw the same results...

mmfiore · · #16163

Yes there is definitely something wrong with the way bitconnect profit is calculated.

mmfiore · · #16164

I am getting much better numbers just by collecting btc

mmfiore · · #16165

I am now up to 142 dollars projected but I should be getting a little more than 200 by my reckoning.

mmfiore · · #16166

I will keep checking. I am now wondering if different coins are more profitable than others here on PH

Raab · · #16167

What have you got? 3 L3+?

is your payout set to 100% BTC now?

siberianbreaks · · #16170

hey i think theres an issue with the live profiability and shares count

GregoryGHarding · · #16171

is there share corrections being calculated?

Raab · · #16172

God I hate crypto -.- Been holding a shitty coin for months thinking it might go upon the off chance. Decide to give up this morning. Sell it at a bit of a loss to change to something else and literally within an hour of selling it the coin I owned for months pumps up by 40%... FML.

siberianbreaks · · #16173

that suck Raab, happen to me several times :(

Raab · · #16174

I;m giving up with trading. Just going to hold! too stressful for nothing.

Raab · · #16175

I'll invest on trying to buy more miners :p

Skarda · · #16176

I switched to PH about 3 weeks ago and have noticed about a 20% better payout than litcoinpool.org. This is great, However I also own one baikal cube X11 300MH which I moved from coinotron. I havent seen any extra punch on PH for that rig. anyone else notice that?

GregoryGHarding · · #16177

my rule of thumb is if im going to hold with the expectation of growth, i will hold for two years, unless coin dies in that time, or a press release has news to come, i will dump after 2 years

GregoryGHarding · · #16178

@Raab :  if you havnt started holding PIVX, you should

vhmanu · · #16179

agree. PIVX has potential

Raab · · #16180

Dont have any PIVX at the moment. Currently have BTC, BCH, ETH, LTC, ARK, GOLEM, ARAGON, AMP

Raab · · #16181

PIVX is on a bit of a downward run at the moment by the looks of it

Raab · · #16182

What is so special about it? Just a more anonymous/private coin?

vhmanu · · #16185

one of the share inserter is getting behind

Steve Sokolowski · · #16186

I figured out the share inserter issue - it’s a memory leak that causes the routine that cleans up the memory to take progressively longer and longer

Steve Sokolowski · · #16187

when it crashes, those shares will be resent to one of the operators where I fixed the bug and everything will restart with the new code

vhmanu · · #16188

thx for the Info Steve. However one question. The share inseter that is behind has shown a profitability of ~6c for the last 2 hours. Not more and not less. Do we get credited the real amount or the wrong 6c?

mycide · · #16189

So we got more missing shares today to be credited? again it looks like i last ecieved share 6 hours ago, altough earning counting atm.

Steve Sokolowski · · #16190

as far as I can tell, those are actual numbers

Steve Sokolowski · · #16191

back then, there was a period of low-profitability mining

Steve Sokolowski · · #16193

I’m not aware of any missing shares other than the ones in the share inserter that is catching up

vhmanu · · #16194

a stable 5.98c over 2 hours are definitely not the real numbers :)
