Cryptocurrency Mining

TL;DR version - Rand value is not a meaningful indicator of rig's performance. Hashrate is your go to value.

Rand value is not an indication of your rig performance. That figure will fluctuate throughout the day, and is determined by variables outside of your control - such as BTC value and how much buyers of your hashing power are bidding/paying nicehash at that time.

What is important to you however, is the hashrate of your rig on a given algo. That figure should remain consistent. Any significant deviation from your rig's median would suggest something funky and time for troubleshooting. Bear in mind hashrate will fluctuate slightly. For example, if your set max fan speed at X value, and let's say the ambient temperature should increase - your rig should slow down if it heats-up, this in order to remain within that fan speed's parameter you had set - these would be minor deviations.
Ok will have a look at hash rates then.
 
Heads up, I see Claymore 11.0 is out with dual mine support on both blake2s and keccak algo's. I'm thinking ETH + XVG, but here are some other random coins using those algo's also, like NevaCoin (NEVA), Netko Coin (NETKO), Verge (XVG), TajCoin (TAJ) on blake2s and SmartCash (SMART), MaxCoin (MAX), Slothcoin (SLOTH), Cryptometh (METH) on keccak...

so is dual mining back?
what is everyone mining?
 
I have another question.. what do you guys use to monitor/ work on your mining rigs? do you have a screen/mouse / keyboard that you plug into each or do you have remote software?

VNC....
 
Will try post pics of my rig later from pc. There is upload problem from my cellphone

This is a rig I'm busy building for a client. Only 3 x 580's for now with space for another 3 on the motherboard although the frame can take another 5.

Nice. Finished our last rig . Lucky to get GPUs end Dec. Now building with Aluminium frame for client

Dual mining currently ETH+XVG, unfortunately the Verge pools are a bit unstable, Unimining started rejecting my connections this morning at 5, zpool expected vs actual payout differ a bit so avoiding it and Antmine apparently has rejected shares... Let us know if you get any joy with the pools?

I am currently mining on mining pool hub , with awesome miner.
I assume i will have to mine the XVG on a different pool (Antmine) and set up dual mining on AW.

I had a quick look last night but was struggling to get a XVG wallet.....

I'm mining directly to Bittrex but I think they are still not accepting new members... I'm mining XVG on Uniming pool (-dpool stratum+tcp://pool.unimining.net:5770), pool was down for a few hours but checked and it seems to be up and finding shares.
