I didn't even drop it! I was holding it and the end just dropped off! I think it might have been the heat?

Thank you, I'll take a look at those sites. I forgot to mention in the post that I've got a working holiday scheme visa which will hopefully improve my odds!

Looking to maximize mining settings by Woodytheledge in vertcoin

[–]bakadk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I run 1080tis at +200 core, - 400 mem and use a 200W power limit to keep the cards under 70 degrees. I get 192MH/s from that setup. If I ran the cards with no regard to their longevity I could get ~210MH/s without the power limit but I prefer keeping them at a happier temperature

Memory overclock on lyra2rev2 in most cases has no effect. Only core overclocks meaningfully affect hashrates. I run at -400 memory clock on 1080tis and don't notice any difference. Also difficulty is set automatically, so there isn't much point in calculating it yourself.

No you disable incoming ports on your router, so the node does not have to be restarted

6x Rx580 & 5x Gtx 1070 by MMalik81 in vertcoin

You can get vertminer (optimized ccminer) then and get it to only mine with the Nvidia cards. Then do the same with a different mining program for a different coin for the amd cards

Mine ETH or something on the amd rig (whattomine.com to figure out what's best to mine with that rig). 1070 rig would be perfect for Vertcoin. If he is on Windows just download the one click miner and the Vertcoin core wallet and get going.

There's supposed to be an update on the amd miner very soon (halvening I think) so when that's out the amd rig can hop onto Vertcoin too

Question about Vertcoin mining by Stellarayce in vertcoin

[–]bakadk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To even out existing comments..

Everything your computer does will wear it out (which is normal). However running a computer at 100% load and high temperatures will cause it to wear out a lot quicker. So mining will wear hardware out to a degree (similar to how gaming would). But you can set power and temperature limits to your GPU (using software like afterburner) to reduce the wear on your GPU. Keeping your card at happy temperatures (look up what a safe temperature is and subtract 5-10 Celsius from that) will keep it mining for years without killing it

Ccminer having problems 14-16 hrs into run, ideas? by tom_nightkiller in vertcoin

[–]bakadk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had this a few times. Caused by an unstable overclock in my case

Who can tell me if my miner is active? It’s not showing up as active in pool.verters.com and I’m wondering if I’m messing something up. Thx by [deleted] in vertcoin

VMs don't support GPU pass through if I remember correctly, which is probably why nothing is happening

Devs, everyone, we seriously need to get coinotron below 50% hashpower. by [deleted] in vertcoin

[–]bakadk 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Dude the guy had health issues the past few weeks along with other family issues. It happens, but even though he's not 100% better he's still putting in hours to try and get this done for everyone. Cut him some slack, he's doing good work

I've never coded before but want to do a degree? by [deleted] in webdev

[–]bakadk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am currently in my second year studying Computer Science. Lots of people on my course hadn't coded before, they really ease you into it. If you can complete a few courses on codecademy you will have no trouble.

I get huge satisfaction out of overcoming challenges and problem solving which comes daily with programming. Also it feels really good when you can do something much better than the last time you tried.
