Still haven't bought PSU and paid customs yet :)


Thanks man, the suspense is killing me after watching Litecoin shoot up over the past two days. I see they've closed the order page for the L3+. I got in just in time I think.

Ah I see, I took the PSU's, I hope customs doesn't screw us in a big way lol

I take it you are running the claymore miner from the command line and connecting to a pool. Chances are that it will be more profitable that way (than Nicehashminer). Your payouts will start appearing in the ethereum address supplied in the command line so check your wallet from time to time, check the website for the pool to monitor progress and pending payouts. Solo mining ethereum is not suggested for most cases. Some pools require a certain number of blocks (collectively by all connecting to the pool) to be solved before the pending amount even appears on the website, nevermind the actual payout.

EDIT: And in this scenario your overall contribution to the pool is probably negligible, so your hashrate will probably not affect your payout times.

Yes claymore from the command line,
This is my script for claymore:
EthDcrMiner64.exe -epool eth-eu.dwarfpool.com:8008 -ewal 0xc3fe071e91F54E66A35522f469Ed6a12B455c115 -epsw x -dpool stratum+tcp://dcr.suprnova.cc:3252 -dwal MiningPC.User1 -dpsw User1Pass

I know the decra is working fine as I can see some coins in that wallet. Just don't know about the Ethereum as there is nothing in my wallet yet.
1) Does the script look correct?
2) I assume dwarfpool is pool mining?
 
1080 ordered :)
Gives me a little bit of time to sort out everything on my end so far as fitting everything is concerned. Looking for a nice big case to house everything. Will be working with the 1080 and 2 x 1050ti, and then possibly slapping my HD7850 in too. Seeing as this is my general PC/workstation, I'm looking to get everything as neat as possible.

How much are they?
Are you using a courier or normal post office?

I will sell for R350 each. Geewiz are currently selling the exact plug for R495.

From China To SA I am using a courier, if that is what you are asking. Therefore I expect them to be here within a few days of ordering.

Let me know if you are interested..
 
I am also placing an order for risers tomorrow in quite a large quantity, that is going to be shipped using airfreight. I expect them to be here by the weekend or Monday or Tuesday next week at the latest. If anyone would like some let me know before 9am tomorrow morning.

How much zumbas? The struggle. I can't believe like a real shop doesn't stock it.
 
A few times now I've caught NHM x.13 to not switch to a more profitable coin... Anyone else pick this up?
 
Can anyone recommend a HDD for a GPU rig? Or could I just use a external drive?

As far as I researched, you need minimum a Celeron, 4Gb Ram and a spinning drive to house Windows and drivers. If you can still find an 80Gb it should be enough for NiceHash.

If you want to add the BTC ledger, add around 130Gb to the space requirement plus room to grow.
 
A mate of mine using NiceHash made a bootable Windows 10 drive off a 16GB flash drive. Slow, but all seems to be working just fine and dandy.

It could be an option if you're in a pickle and need a temp drive

I am still finalising the quote with the supplier with the quantities and shipping costs, so I don't know a per unit cost as yet. My guess is that they will come in at between R100 and R150 each. Let me know if you are keen and how many you want.

Also, I see you are in Cape Town and I am in Joburg. I am happy to courier to you once they arrive though. Let me know.

I have done it with a 32Gb USB3 drive, I can tell you it is very slow. I have borrowed an Mecer Stick PC that has Windows 8 on it but I have not tried it as I need a free HDMI port and a powered USB hub. It also dont take PCI-x but was wanting to try it on my USB miners.

I just deselect all other algorithms and only leave it on Equihash (I've got 2GB cards so can't do Dagger-Hash)
