lol
I too looked into bitmain L3+ after rayman earleir post
in the afternoon the bitmain site was soo laggy,
was also considering Innosilicon A4 Dominator as an alternative, but specs are not good.

how did you pay, by visa? or did you buy btc from luno, convert to ltc and pay bitmain?

im currently undecided weather i should get gigawatt to host for me or host it myself.

raynman i though bitmain is in the usa are their machinese manufactured in china?
also if i buy WTT token, i just need to email them re L3+ and pay them 51 LTC for the L3+ no need to deal with bitmain?
lastly how did you pay for WTT and the L3+? visa? or crypto via luno?
Seems im still having issue with my genesis purchase

i can still see it on their site?
im going to buy 1 very soon hopefully.

AMD Says Its CPUs Are Also Efficient For Monero Cryptocurrency Mining

https://www.lowyat.net/2017/135805/amd-says...urrency-mining/

they are mining right now.
may start to look for alternative to eth, maybe zcash as they are very similar now in $/W

humm I would buy the PSU only if it was cheaper

ha that is very interesting in deed, wonder why you getting such bad results.

Was thinking of getting the Ryzen 5 1500x, that just suites my purpose for the next few years.
I may upgrade to a Ryzen 7 1700 now hehe,

Anyone with 1060 running Claymore 9.7?

If not you should, there is about 8% increases in performance
Ive been running the new optimized ethminer for few days now ever since its came out.
Now seems Claymore has copied the open source code.
from what I can tell the performance between Claymore 9.7 and ethminer is about the same, about 8% increases in hashrate

i personally have different work all pointing to same wallet.
dont think it effects hashrate either way,
i just like to transfer eth out from pool to wallet fast.

you still use a bat file to start it off just like claymore.
claymore has much more usefull features, that ethminer dont, since its already giving similar performance, i will keep using claymore

you can find RX570??

about 2 weeks ago, the people found out that the dag file is going effect the rx series cards, it does not effect gtx
dag file increase hash rate slowers, the epoc size for ethereum i mean.
i would stick with gtx 1060 for now.

If you are a new, I suggest you stay away from actual mining now its a bad time to get it, if it was 3-4 months ago, then go ahead. now is not a good time to buy eth mining rig, first of all the hardware are extreamly expensive now, POS, difficulty bomb, current weak ETH price but that should be temp. there is no more 3month roi
zcash is not good on 1060, 1070 and 1080ti yes if you can get it at reasonable price, other coins tho not sure, Im actually in the mids researching on mining other coins to hedge my bets.

it took me a very long time to get my 2nd rig done, you need very good PC trouble shooting skills.
Basically took me 2 days to figure out i had multiple issues with pci usb risers and not software, took another day to test each individual PCI/mobo, and full pci/gpu, there are lots of shit quality ones out there now, as high demand low quality.
Once I determine the defective ones, about 1/3 was not usable, 1/3 was ok but had stability issues, lucky I had ordered much more then I needed.
My first batch of riser work 7 out of 7 perfectly. 2nd batch form different supplier was horrible.

If all your hardware is fine and plugged in, it just takes 2-3 hours each PC to setup the software from to finish (flash mobo, install os, updates, miner, driver, etc... start mining.)

another option is do LTC mining using L3+ buy from bitmain.com. I got 2 on its way. its currently more profitable on that, but its noisy as hell. should be much simpler to setup then gpu rig.

Else suggest you better head do cloud mining instead, Im on the LTC plans as well and its also the most profitable one now for cloud mining

there are people there that can help you, lots have join already, just do yourself a favour and dont say i send you there, im the black sheep there.

By the way where are you seeing people selling their mining rigs?
price of 1060 is still way over price, same as 1070.

oh thats not what i heard, maybe they have updated it since, as ati and claymore were looking into a solution, they claim s.g miner (linux) was not effected, but no one can verify that. the was about 1 week ago, i dont follow as it does not effect me. im only have gtx.

True you can always resell your pc mining rig, but you have to know if market crash everyone will dump their gpu, you be lucky if you get say 50% back, as there will be over supply.
Its is more safer then Asics, but with L3+ roi is 3-4 months, but waiting for 3-4 months to deliver
Not sure when you will see cheap 1070

its very hard to predict income, your rig will only last you around 1-2 years, then you will need to upgrade your gpu again.

its more about the memory, samsung memory are the best, cooler not so important as memory for oc, but it is important to if you want it to last.
and you should set your power level to around 65, so it runs cool and save electricity.

just looked at previous 3 months graph on hashrate and difficulty, it still seems like its constant, not like eth almost exponential.

lol its very hard to find now days.
I just sold a new asrock h81 last week at cost, sold for RM520. later i went to check lelong all out of stock and they were charging around RM600 now thats crazy.
remember seeing this biostar 12 pci selling for around RM650 i think 2 weeks ago, now they want 1k

there is this biostar available for RM400 but its Ryzen, you pay much more for the cpu tho.

wow thanks for sharing, didnt know there was such a board at this price point and still available in the market.
I also looked into it apparently this has 2x m.2 slots, so you can potentially have 8 cards on this mobo.
that biostar only has 1 m.2 slot, i did had mix results on getting it to run, when i have time will try to run 7 card of my biostar.

myeatherwallet, i have private key is that secure? i mean if the website is down can i stil accesss my eth?

coinomi i guess is just an online wallet and i dont hold my private key there for not as safe?

there is no 4gb version, gtx 1060 only 3 and 6 gb
i have both, and and still perform the same. gtx is not effected by dag/epoch size unlike the RX series
last i checked, at current rate i think 3gb can still mine until end of year or early 2018

by the way i head pos is delayed again, can someone verify this?

3 gb can has as much as 6gb, depends on ram, Samsung the best

my asus 3gb dual fan can only do mem 750-900, each card huge different.
zotac 6gb all can do 1000 mem, but i run at 900 more stable.

both my asus and zotac are doing 24-25mhs per card.

you guys should really get the latest claymore 9.7, its has improvement on gtx 1060. i getting about 8% extra hashrate compared to claymore 9.6

D3 i know one guy manage to get 1 unit.
