But when it comes to mining it isn’t just the ‘lucky’ that make the money it’s also the ones selling the shovels and spades. I’m talking about the manufacturers like KnC and Butterfly Labs; the ones who escape the rate race by giving the rats what they want. Surely that’s where the profit lies. They take your money up front (like the banks) and they teach you a lesson but you don’t see any profit until you learn from it.

What one also have to understand, the manufacturers do make some bucks of the shovels and spades, however their business plan is based on using the newest equipment first (before anyone else have them) and then selling them just about when profit is barely possible with the tools they just used. The first few in line to buy one will make big bucks and get ROI, thus pumping the reputation of the tools. However, if you’re a bit down the line you’re giving money away without a gain.

Great initiative…community and press sounds interesting, feel free to PM :)

This should fall under healthy competition, nobody really lose on it :)

djm34: I’ll talk with others from the team to try and find out who can act middle man and hold the donation adress for you :)

djm34: No offence now mate, but to be honest I think the low level of donations so far mainly is because you claim to have stuff that works but in fact nobody can really vouch for that, and screenshots can very easily be manipulated as we all know.

Mind you though, I’m definitely not saying you’re a scammer, so don’t misunderstand me. But I truly believe that if you handled this in another way you’d get more donations and the CUDA-miner would see the official light of the day.

I think one big step would be if we set up an official donation address held by the FTC-team for you, that’s good intention from your side, and a guarantee for everyone investing that you simply won’t just take the money and run :)

If we decide to do it that way, someone could also hook up with you on a video chat where you can show some kind of proof that you actually tell the truth (again, I’m not stating you’re lying right now, but the crypto business is shady in general so we all need to take precautions).

Give it some thought at least :)

Ghostlander: Ahh I see your point there. Hit me up if you change your mind tho, there are after all a LOT of rigs running with 750ti out there just waiting for some better performance in NS :)

Ghostlander, if you can create a cudabased miner that performs well I’ll gladly send you a 750ti that I have over just lying in a box right now to test it on :)

an alternative is to run windows 7 of a USB-stick (don’t buy one that’s to slow, USB 3.0 with highers speeds preferred!).
Then you can run cgwatcher on each separate rig to get a good level of error handling and ease of usage, then you hook them all up to a cgremote-machine and can control them all from that in a very easy gui :)

That’s how I would have done it anyways :)

Cheers for sharing!

I think this proves that if you really want your miners to perform at a top level you have to put some time into finding the sweet spot for your particular card.

I’m new into mining but I’ve got a long background in overclocking both CPU’s and GFX cards. The most valuable lesson I’ve learned during the years is that [b]no component are alike![/b].

It doesn’t matter if you have the same brand and model as someone else, there’s still no guarantee that it’ll work with identical settings. Trial and error is the only true way to be sure on how your cards will perform :)

I still think the area (open project management / support systems), is a rapidly developing area. Just reading about this -

Why you will love OpenProject

OpenProject is free and open source software for project management with a wide set of features
and plugins and an active community.

I’ve looked into openproject and given it a testrun a few times over the last year. Sadly it’s a mess to use, not user friendly at all :/
