What are /r/VertcoinMining's favorite Products & Services?

From 3.5 billion Reddit comments

Like I said in the thread you posted in /r/vertcoin it looks like you are using the wrong version of CPU miner for vertcoin.

Download the following and try to run it again.

Got it. Just stay put and I am sure you will receive good payout. Please do one more thing for me. Use method 2 from here https://www.wikihow.com/Test-Network-and-Internet-Latency-(Lag)-in-Microsoft-Windows and let me know the time it takes per ping to my IP 163.182.174.201

Thanks

Ok, I've done the drill, and that's a great advice you gave me there. It's much better, but not perfect yet. I let you see by yourself on the screen I made, there are differences I can't explain. For example, all the VRM values are different. And some are much higher. And the modified bios is the same on both cards !

I couldn't get the fan curve to change, even though I modified it on VBE7.

The share chain is specific to P2Pool. If you were solo mining without using a pool, there would be no shares, but with the current difficulty you'd need at least 100Gh/s of hashing power to find a block.

Btw, P2Pool isn't VTC specific, there are a ton of coins out there that use similar peer 2 peer mining clients. Some use shares, some payout according to how much hashing power you've contributed.

Check out http://p2pool.org/learn/index.php, it's for the Bitcoin P2Pool, but it's basically the same.

Check http://p2pool.org:9171, click Graphs and then look for your address

Thanks for mining P2Pool btw, I consider P2Pool's popularity as one of Vertcoin's strengths but the percentage has been dropping recently and the hash rate is starting to centralise into a few pools.

If you decide to stick with P2Pool you might want to consider a different node. Looking at p2pool.org's stats they've got quite a high DOA rate, presumably because they've got people connecting from all over the world without considering their latency. Low latency to the node is essential with P2Pool, take a look at p2pool.vertcoin.org and try a couple of the nodes with low ping (it calculates ping for each one in your browser, very cool). You should be able to find one with a lower ping and lower fees than p2pool.org.

Ok thank you for all the info!

I am going on http://p2pool.org:9171 (the main server listed on p2pool.com for vertcoin) just to test out

Have my user name as xxxxxxxxxxxxxx+0.000174 (does that look right for [for 150kh])

So how long should I have to wait to receieve a payment? I just want to find out if its working right so I dont mine for multiple days without knowing or not like my first attempt at p2pool

Also, is this method the same for other altcoins?

Ok, you need to install libcurl (http://curl.haxx.se/libcurl/) into your system also.

When you get it to compile it might be that the ccminer doesn't work out of the box with your Titan Black and 780. This is because the ccminer is configured for the Maxwell architecture (CUDA compute capability 5.0) by default. You can change the target architecture to Kepler (CUDA 3.5 in your case) by changing the following line in Makefile:

nvcc_ARCH = -gencode=arch=compute_50,code=\"sm_50,compute_50\"

to

nvcc_ARCH = -gencode=arch=compute_35,code=\"sm_35,compute_35\"

You can also try to give this flag to the CUDA compiler for example in configure.sh but for some reason I didn't get it to work that way.

EDIT: You also need the following additional libraries: openssl (libssl in Linux), pthread (libpthread) and mpir (mpir.org, version 2.6.0 should work).

You could run it as a full-time VTC node. This way you could help out vertcoin in general.

Or you could it up to run a distributed computing setup for worthy causes.

BOINC projects

How does this look for a low key miner? I just want to do my part to keep it decentralized and have no aspirations to get rich from mining.

Would've been easier to check with hyperlinks instead of just names, but it seems allright at first glance.

I would recommend getting risers like these with a 4-pin molex connector built right onto them so you can use the 4-pin molex power right from the PSU and not have to get adapters (no more than 2 risers on a single cable going to the PSU is best practice though)

Also, double-check the power supply's number of 6+2pin connectors against how many you'll need for your graphics cards to ensure you'll have enough.

Finally, if you are looking to save money, you could get two smaller power supplies and link them together (so they both turn on at the same time) with a 24-pin splitter. Only thing you have to watch for is to make sure you always power a graphics card and its riser from the same power supply and never hook up one part to both supplies at once. I bought two 750watt power supplies for my 6x1070 rig and it was WAAAAY cheaper than getting a single larger one.

Well if i was gonna get 1070TI i was looking at getting 3 of These hoping that will push me over 100 hash not sure about how many that would be a day or a week? If not those cards these where the others Msi

Your only option is to get a PCIe riser and relocate the card so that it's hanging inside the case. This isn't ideal but unless you move the motherboard to an open frame, I don't know what other options you have. Here's a good PCIe riser:
