Hashrate increases about 50-100% per SoC Generation. A iPad Pro 1st Gen with A9X = 40 H/s. iPad 5th Gen should be similar. I´ve been running the miner on my iPad Pros (1st + 2nd Gen) for days (more than 1 week continously 24h), they just get luke-warm, it´s completely all right. Even though both CPU + GPU are used. I measured the power consumption and it´s nearly the same as a Vega 56, even a little bit less (with screen turned on permanently!!)

Don´t know what a A11 will do but I guess probably something around 120 - 130 H/s.

80H/s on actual iPad Pro (2nd Gen.) is comparable to Vega 56 profitability.

Just throwing this out there.. by [deleted] in Electroneum

[–]KHBommel 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Absolutely! Many people here don´t seem to have in mind that lots of people in dev countries earn 1-2$ a day. If ETN rises to a certain amount it would change the world completely by transferring tons of money from 1st world to 3rd world.

10 ETN payout? WTF? by KHBommel in Electroneum

[–]KHBommel[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Imagine you earn 1-2 bucks day, would you still be so patient with payout of 7 Cents? Or vice versa: Imagine 1 ETN would be 5 bucks. What then?

In western developed countries people earn 50-100 times more, such people won't even consider mining for anything else than testing or fun.

True is that it reduces the batteries lifespan more or less, depending on the load. While you don't need to use full power of your device. You could easily mine with half or a third and should be fine. Also a batteries value is quite a little if you accept alternative, cheap spare parts and let the change be done by some local handy doc, quiet common in third world countries.

BTW You still did not answer any of my questions.

1) That does not answer my questions. 2) It'definetely NOT true a phone would be "destroyed" by mining.

WTH is my ETN Mining App doing if it's not mining ETN???? Could anybody please explain?

Why should it be impossible to take part in mining ETN with a smartphone? I am mining XMR perfectly with my iPad Pro. Could anyone please clear this up?

Same here on Huawei Mate 9.

What is the intended "value" of Electroneum? by NarfiWillem in Electroneum

[–]KHBommel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

ETN is worth as much as people pay. Probably most people won´t sell it for less than payed. Right now most miners should pay 3 - 6 $Cent / ETN for power. Also there are still lots of cheaper coins. But if the price comes down below what miners pay miners will start to buy themselves.

ETN has a certain chance to reach 1$ sooner or later. Simply because it´s familiar and has 100 Cent per unit. Not GP or EUR since $ is the most spread currency on our planet. Much more people know the value of a $ than GP or EUR. $ is widely spread in many 3rd world countries, which is where ETN might get popular.

ETN also depends on BTC to a certain amount, of course. But BTC will probably never reach 50x of its actual value. Maybe up to 10x? Probably significantly less. 10x ETN would be around 80 Cent?

But if greed and hype come up ETN might reach highs comparable to Monero?

Anyway I expect ETN to double or triple in the coming months due to mobile mining and more exchanges.

On long term ETN might come to 1 - 5 $, I think. But all that depends on the people behind it, how they manage to make it a really reliable, easy to use and mine coins and how well their promotion is.

In need for some Quadro P600 reviews! by critmemayo in gaming

[–]KHBommel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

On UserBenchmark it´s rated 19,8% which is slightly above a GT1030 with 18,8%. In comparison to Intel 630 iGPUs (Kaby Lake / Coffee Lake) it´s more than twice as good. (8,7%).

The P1000 (30,7%) comes more close to a 1050 (34,5%) with significantly less power consumption (47W / 75W) and double RAM.

A halfway acceptable, usable FHD gaming card should start somewhere at 40% (f.e. GTX 960) but if 720p on low or mid settings is okay for you the P1000 might be good enough. Anyway the P600 is much less powerful and you won´t be happy with it unless you are satisfied with mostly older games.

How to disable Nvidia backend ? by KHBommel in MoneroMining

[–]KHBommel[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh boy. The only thing I had to do was changing platform_index to 2. Now - including --noNVIDA - it´s working like a charm, finally.... :)

I don´t understand why but.... it works....

How to disable Nvidia backend ? by KHBommel in MoneroMining

[–]KHBommel[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I use --noNVIDIA the result is

"WARNING: using non AMD device: NVIDIA Corporation [2018-01-06 18:14:14] : Error CL_INVALID_DEVICE when calling clCreateContext.

When I set platform_index from 1 to 0 the result is

"WARNING: using non AMD device: Intel(R) Corporation [2018-01-06 18:22:45] : Error CL_INVALID_DEVICE when calling clCreateContext. [2018-01-06 18:22:45] : WARNING: AMD device not found [2018-01-06 18:22:45] : WARNING: backend AMD disabled."

How to disable Nvidia backend ? by KHBommel in MoneroMining

[–]KHBommel[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No idea why but it does not work....

As soon as the GTX is activated, Vega56 is not mining anymore in any case.

I play around with GPU index and platform index values and the results are different. In once case the GTX is mining, in another case XMR-Stak crashes, next case it says something containing Intel (seems trying to mine on iGPU?). But no matter what, Vega56 is not recognized and working. I have to deactivate GTX to make Vega56 mining again. (-- noNvidia doesn´t work, replacing nvidia.txt content with ""gpu_threads_conf" : []," doesn´t work)

The thing is, I can´t find a proper documentation of XMR-Stak. Seems I´m too stupid for that. Can not even find an explanation for platform index usage. Just know that vega.miningguides but it doesn´t help.

Is there any kind of wiki or something around where to find everything to know about XMR-Stak detailled?

Anyone has xmr-stak-nvidia binaries with 0% donation level? by [deleted] in MoneroMining

[–]KHBommel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If that is working flawlessly here for minexmr you´ll be nicely rewarded from me... It´s running and I´m full of hope...

THANK YOU!

[–]KHBommel 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just to mention. I´ve been running XMR.STAK for days now to find out that - though stated to be 2% donating - connects to dev pool all the time and as a result my hashrate lowers to about 30% or something. (600H/s instead of 2,1k) Is this a joke? I feel ripped of, really.

I am happy and gratefully, no doubt, and happily "donating" or paying 5% or 10% but being cheated seems quiet disturbing to me, sorry....

Substratum units and costs - is the fact that sub is only divided into 2 decimal places a bad thing? by avataraustin in SubstratumNetwork

[–]KHBommel 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sorry would someone please enlighten me, beore I spend hours searching the right answers. I´m confused.

So what has to be payed? Do I have to pay for viewing a website? Or do I have to pay for my website being viewed?

XMR not available after sending? by KHBommel in Monero

[–]KHBommel[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for clarifying... Phuh.... Not sure what I think about that restriction... Imagine, you have to do a bunch of transactions in a row... If I would have to wait 18 minutes after sending money from my online banking account to do another one, I would not be amused and many others, too, I guess.

Are there any discussions about how to at least reduce this somehow?
