2 days to recalculation, so hopefully it will drop back again, but its a clear pointer that scrypt will keep growing, meaning either LTC will keep increasing value or miners will soon be out of luck. My money is on LTC increasing value, we see the same thing happening on Dash to keep the rigs profitable. same history on btc since forever.
mycide · · #51600
might be one fo the last chances to go big on this. some years from now halfing happens, price spikes will have to follow, new gen rigs 10 nm 7nm asics will redfine the miners playfield when they hit the market in a few years.
mycide · · #51601
and after that we talking quantum computers... got no clue how they will effect crypto algos

What is a good static difficulty of d= in the password field for D3?
mycide · · #51603
im running my D3 withouth static difficulty, it works well

apple madbytecoin, i noticed a few of my pps miners hitting it and so i switched over a single 138 mh machine over, it found like 4 blocks but the found blocks section showed only one.

payment system is of from yesterday?? I'm not received yesterday and today payment!!!!
Morbiduzz · · #51609
*off sory
Morbiduzz · · #51610
and no support ticket response
mycide · · #51611
tickets can and usually will take a few days or more.
mycide · · #51612
by wednesday hopefyll they will have more staff, and that should improve
mycide · · #51613
my ltc payment from 26 is not done, but for today it came through.
AppleMiner · · #51614
todays payment was from the 26.

Thinking about OC my L3+s...can I run them using a 1000 watt PSU?
r888r888 · · #51616
Hello, I’m waiting for payment on the 21st. Since the balance sheet is Payout Reddcoin, and ID is still not there. Today I have already begun 28 Tuesdays ... How long to wait?
AppleMiner · · #51617
do you have a watt meter, how many amps and watts are you pulling now on them?
AppleMiner · · #51618
@r888r888 : if it has been over 24 hours, put a ticket in @ support.prohashing.com

AppleMiner · · #51620
yes it will impact it....but it depends in how you define LIFESPAN
AppleMiner · · #51621
is LIFESPAN the length of time the miner will operate...cuase that may be 6 years if the quality of the build is good.
AppleMiner · · #51622
or is LIFESPAN the length of time you can run it and STILL make a profit by running it.
AppleMiner · · #51623
yes the lifespan of the machine may be 5-6 years, the lifespan of the profit of the machine, probably 8 months or less.
AppleMiner · · #51624
so if by OC I cut the runtime down by a third, and go form 6 years to 2...I think at 2 years its still more than the miners will be running at a profit.
AppleMiner · · #51625
another reason will be worthless to buy L3+s on ebay in another 2-3 months
AppleMiner · · #51626
most will have boards burnt out of them
sublimeguy · · #51627
AppleMiner wrote: yes the lifespan of the machine may be 5-6 years, the lifespan of the profit of the machine, probably 8 months or less.thats only true if youre selling all your rewards for USD every day. Units are still profitable, even operating at a "daily" loss, if the value of the coin appreciates in value over time
sublimeguy · · #51628
remember when the S series miners werent "profitable?"
AppleMiner · · #51629
sub at some point they will pull in less coins$ per day than the cost of the eelectricty to run them
r888r888 · · #51630
I put on support.prohashing.com. already questions, from the 22nd day. There’s no one there. Nobody is answering. I can not talk to myself there myself ...

did you put a ticket in @r888r888 : ?
AppleMiner · · #51633
no sub I know exactly what you are saying
AppleMiner · · #51634
I spend $1700 a month in electricty.

AppleMiner · · #51637
at some point I will earn 2 LTCs a month with all my rigs, and unless the coins will sell in the future for more than $850 each, then it is better to shut them off, save the electricty and use the electric payment to buy the coins directly.

@r888r888 : the brothers have been away for the holiday they were setting up the new upgrades, they will jump back into the tickets today when they woke up, chris is already hard at work looking for where the payments are and why they didnt send.
AppleMiner · · #51640
Hey sub, I have a KNC titan, runs 300 hash at 1200 watts, Im sure the coins will be worth more than the electric in another 5-10 years...wanna buy my titan rigs for $4000?
r888r888 · · #51641
OK. Thank you
sublimeguy · · #51642
thats not a good deal!
AppleMiner · · #51643
why not? the price of the coins will go up in the future right? so it doesnt matter if you are using older less effiecnt machines to mine on, at a loss even
AppleMiner · · #51644
that was your point right?
sublimeguy · · #51645
youre right at SOME point the equipment becomes SO obsolete that it makes more sense to just buy the coin
AppleMiner · · #51646
and I am betting that time will be in the next 6-8 months
AppleMiner · · #51647
so if I can OC them for 6-8 months, it wont really matter if they die the next day for me.
sublimeguy · · #51648
you might be right
sublimeguy · · #51649
but its all a projection
AppleMiner · · #51650
i can tell you this, in the climate we are in now, it wont be no 6 years away from now.
AppleMiner · · #51651
2 years...1 year sure. and if i can keep them OC and running for 1 year, I think I got my money out of them
AppleMiner · · #51652
PLUS, Id rather have 20% more now when im making 200 coins a month, than to run an extra 3 months a year from now when Im only getting 20 coins a month.
sublimeguy · · #51653
AppleMiner wrote: yes the lifespan of the machine may be 5-6 years, the lifespan of the profit of the machine, probably 8 months or less.overclocking it a risk - maybe its a good idea and itll pay off, maybe it wont. its basically a guess how it will affect the lifetime earnings and profitability of the equipment
AppleMiner · · #51654
oh yes, and to each their own
AppleMiner · · #51655
im not telling everyone DO IT, but some do, and it works fine for them
AppleMiner · · #51656
each miner has to do a risk vs reward to see if its right for them to do it.
AppleMiner · · #51657
and each machine and miner is different.
sublimeguy · · #51658
all those people who sold their S series machines because they werent profitable probably are now wishing they had just kept them mining at a "loss" because now with a 10k BTC it wouldve been quite profitable if they had just held onto their rewards
Aura89 · · #51659
antminer s9 was released more then a year ago and is still profitable today. Granted, if everything didn’t start skyrocketing, that wouldn’t be true, and we can’t expect that to continue necessarily, but we also can’t expect it to stop necessarily either, no one knows the future. But if things continue as they are going now, an L3+ could be profitable for 2 more years for all we know.
sublimeguy · · #51660
ph has been running nicely the last couple days
mcrutche · · #51661
Thanks guys but my question was..can I use a 1000watt PSU OCing my L3+

AppleMiner · · #51663
my knc titan rig is 3 years old this month, and its still running and making me a profit after 3 years.
sublimeguy · · #51664
but to answer your question it depends
AppleMiner · · #51665
but I dont think they made as much or as deep an impact as the last L3+ release wave this generation
Aura89 · · #51666
@sublimeguy : technically there’s no reason you couldn’t, but that is running a powersupply (even 800 watts normal operation) a little close to its max
sublimeguy · · #51667
if overclocking results in +1000W usage then no, obviously
Aura89 · · #51668
er
AppleMiner · · #51669
@mcrutche : do you have a WATT METER to plug your miner into?
Aura89 · · #51670
replied to wrong guy lol
sublimeguy · · #51671
ya 
Aura89 · · #51672
i think the chat moved down a line, that’s what i’ll say, or, something...yeah...yeah...*cough*
sublimeguy · · #51673
a 1000W psu should work fine for 1 non-overclocked L3+
AppleMiner · · #51674
@mcrutche : it would be helpful to know how many watts you are pulling now to see if the 1000 will be enough or not
sublimeguy · · #51675
it might work for an overclocked one depending on how it affects Watt usage
sublimeguy · · #51676
but yeah you should get a W meter and measure it
AppleMiner · · #51677
and myself, I follow the 80% rule, if im running stuff 24-7 I never go over 80% load on the system
AppleMiner · · #51678
thats just my own personal standard of safety, your milage may very.
mcrutche · · #51679
Not right now...good advice...I will get one first
AppleMiner · · #51680
so no, id never use that 1000 watt power to run my L3 regular or OCed.
Aura89 · · #51681
80% at max is generally considered the smart move, which is why i say 1000 watts means he’s kinda already at his max, doesn’t mean he couldn’t push it, but... lol
AppleMiner · · #51682
I think stock its 800, so thats at 8-% out of the box for that power.
Aura89 · · #51683
yeah
AppleMiner · · #51684
thats why I grabbed the apw3+ for the L3s and the apw5+ for the D3s, plenty of OC headroom
AppleMiner · · #51685
and im running them on 220V so its the bigger setting, like 1600 on the 3, and 2400 watts ont he 5s
sublimeguy · · #51686
i really have no idea how overclocking a L3+ impacts W usage
Aura89 · · #51687
Yup, i thought about getting a different power supply then simply what they sold, but i didn’t give it much thought as the prices they have on them for the watts they provide and the fact that i didn’t have to worry about one with not enough 6-pin cables, made it make the most sense
Aura89 · · #51688
@sublimeguy : One guy said he overclocked his L3+ from 504MH/s to 605MH/s and he went from 800 watts to 888, so take that as you will
AppleMiner · · #51689
that looks about right
AppleMiner · · #51690
a 20% power increase for a 20% hash increase
AppleMiner · · #51691
i got no problems with that, hell even if it cost you 25-30% power increase for a 20% hash increase would still be worth it.
AppleMiner · · #51692
with my OC, I have 4 virtual machines hashing for me.
