Lbry.

Nicehash profit drop is due to the Bitcoin segwit2x and bip148(usaf)...Alot of people are concerned that the blockchain would split into two (hard fork).. It will be downhill until August 1.

According to their developer they will disable automatic payment on that day too.

what is segwit and bip? I tot its all under the sha thingy?

In the pic he is running lbry credit through nicehash miner.. Nicehash miner automatically pick the most profitable algorithm to mine, highest bidder for the algorithm = the program automatically choose to mine it.

there many algorithm including daggerh,equihash,cryptonight, etc

Yup, its lbry.

My cards are running at ~85C, is it okay for such cards?

Nice, what a monster card u have there.

Profit seems to be 2USD per day, not considering any costs. Doesn't seem efficient at all =x..

Mind advising where should i look for tweaks? like driver?

Holy Cow, that is alot of hashing power there!

On a side note, due to the lack of graphic cards on the market. How can we build new rigs for mining purpose? Would like to try to build 1 (eta cost 3-5k?) to try out this interesting mining works.

For two Titan Z? Mining Lbry? Seems to be well below par.  sweat.gif

Totally have no idea on what to tweak/check. As i'm trying out using nicehash, I believe the rate to be sub-par, but can't really get information on typical rate for this GPU online.

Sorry ah, you comparing Apple to Apple?

I thought you were asking about Mining BTC directly? This was your post.
However the Antminer L3+ doesn't mine BTC. tongue.gif

Look at your screenshot, what does it mine? SCRYPT. What is SCRYPT for? LTC (Litecoin). BTC (Bitcoin) uses SHA-256.

And how is it Apple to Apple comparison when both are priced so differently?

Let me give you a better comparison.

-----------------------
ANTMiner S9 - 14Th/s - Price USD 3,000. Makes 330 USD worth of BTC a month.

6x RX 580 8GB - A little less than USD 3,000. Makes 601.08 USD worth of ETH a month, can be converted to BTC.
-----------------------

ANTMiner locally not available, you want to buy? Wait, let them ship. And warranty / breakdown? Straight KO, you have to send back.

Compare that to a 6 GPU setup, 1 card breakdown you still mine and all parts available locally.

Mining trend ends? OK sell them all off.

See the difference now?

And also why on earth are you comparing using GTX 1080 Ti? That's like putting the not-so-good GPU miner to the comparison. Price to performance ratio GTX 1080 Ti isn't as good as the lower end cards, which is why you don't see people flocking to buy GTX 1080 Ti.

Also you must note the problem with Nicehash is that it uses % here % there and it's hard to gauge.

See it better now why people don't use ASIC miners?

SUMMARY
- Using the right parts, you get better cost to profit ratio.
- GPU mining are using components readily available (off the shelf)
- Should anything happen to the unit, GPU mining setup's components are easily replaced and can move on / resume operation with ease, not so with expensive ASIC miners.
- ASIC miner is not readily available.

Wait, i thought AMD cards already extinct from the market? ranting.gif ranting.gif ranting.gif

well if the trend cont, you will see tons of cheap amd cards later on. mining eth profit drops more 50% now. meaning from 4months ROI to maybe 8~10months ROI now.

to be honest, i wanna get my hands on to mine some alt-coins, mostly to learn more on the rig building and support such movement. But god damn no supply at all, not even the 2nd or 3rd best mining card ranting.gif ranting.gif ranting.gif ranting.gif ranting.gif ranting.gif

the hype is dying off. for fun, you might get rx460 or 560. these cards are not good at all but its fun to play with. try to go pre order some 1060/1070 or rx470/570/480/580, wait for 2 months + and if you are lucky, you still can make a few buck... but no guarantee you can ROI smile.gif
*
From my calculation, ROI on the cards itself is possible within a 1 year time frame, however all the hardware needed to power up is kinda hard. 2 Months is too much, might as well buy used card to troll for fun. Hopefully there will be new cards in the market soon. Then can buy 1/2 to run for fun.

Want coins go buy direct. Even with 6 of the highest end GPU on your rig that costs a car, you still won't get much coin after a month.

Want coins and card (gaming sometimes) biggrin.gif

QUOTE(goldfries @ Jul 3 2017, 10:54 AM)
No ah, coming in at higher price. tongue.gif

But I was using RX 580 as an example because it's the best card, especially for ETH.

My RX 580 8GB should be coming in this week yay!
*
Higher price doesn't make sense lor, better I wait. August is coming too... So gonna use 580 for mining too?

That you have to check with the shop.

If you walk in want to buy straight 2 - 3 cards they know already miner.

Sifu goldfries, any recommendation for a 3-4 GPU rig?

So far I didn't find any solid Malaysia group buy yet, I will get a couple of it too, if the shipping price is reasonable.
