Do I have to have my wallet running the same time as my miner?
NVIDIA needed a massive OC and a die shrink to manage to reach the mining that a 28nm chip could do... seems that something is off, no?
BTC over $730 again, ETH record high, over $19
Rise!! Riiiise!!
Heh, if BTC goes up another $25, it'll crack the CDN$1000 mark.
Better see if Newegg will sell my another 5pack of 290s.
Fingers crossed!!

Yeah I'm gonna see how P10 pans out to even think of adding more hashrate. If at least 30MHs is not possible with P10 I'm not gonna bother.
I plan to buy one no matter what because I want to game (in my living room where the TV is) but the 390X just dumps too much heat in the room to let it be dual-purpose 24/7. My plan is to get the P10 just for gaming and livingroom mining and let the 390x just mine in another room. What is funny is the 390x is the most expensive GPU I ever have owned and it's played a grand total of three games because right after I got it I got into mining.
Got my 290s yesterday, I was wondering if 30-31MH is good for them?
Yes that is very good.
Is 19MH ok for a 7970ghz? Seem like that is as fast as I can get that to go.
Will say the heat that the 290s are putting out is pretty crazy.
When the refurb 290s went back on there I did think of you lol. I can't wait for Polaris 10 myself, going to redo my setup so I can have a gaming machine again.
For the Canadians out there, at the current Bitstamp price of US$768.00 we're essentially at CDN$1000 (CDN$995.70 to be precise). The Bitcoin ATH was 13 November 2013 at US$1216.73, but the equivalent Bitcoin price was CDN$1271.57 due to the stronger dollar at the time. If the current bull run continues, we only need to hit US$980 to reach the Canadian ATH.
Hopefully cheap Polaris can replace some of my miners but the fight against the difficulty curve and with PoS coming late 2016/early 2017 this game will be over pretty soon.
If anything Polaris being good at mining will make things worse as it will raise the difficulty curve.
Good point! I never thought of that.
FYI I'm done with 28nm, I'm tapping out, too much heat!
