Mining with 5xGTX1080

Is there Asic miner that might be able to mine FTC?
I am using s9 to mine BTC, would like to mine FTC too, but I can’t bother with GPU.Feathercoin is currently ASIC resistant, however it would actively have to change the algorithm should a Neoscrypt ASIC be developed. Which would be a community and financial decision.
-
And there lies the beauty of the FTC…
“but I can’t bother with GPU.”
You have to actually want to mine FTC. You can’t just buy a machine, and plug it in the wall. Once again, you have to actually want to mine it.
It really is a wonderful thing!

Most of your conversation on this thread is well above my level of understanding, but thank you for having it. I’m sure I have picked up a few bits of understanding from it. Hopefully it will make it easier once I start to look into the mining aspect of feathercoin.

I don’t understand how my 1070’s are so much faster than most other cards I see on these forums…
-
@jimmy24651 NVIDIA exposes PTX assembly to OpenCL and CUDA. AMD doesn’t and their current compiler is a piece of junk.
-
@ghostlander Im not comparing the 1070’s to AMD’s…Im comparing to other Nvidia cards…look at that picture he just posted above. Those are the hash rates coming off of his 1080’s…My 1070’s are running faster than that, and I guarantee my cards were a fraction of the price!!
-
@jimmy24651 It depends on a CCminer release, correct thread count, etc. I’m getting 1.1MH/s on a GTX 1070 with a 150W TDP.
-
@ghostlander About the same here…
-
@ghostlander
Please what version of ccminer do you use? Thanks. -
@ghostlander
Really? I only get 1035kh/s on my 1080. Which version are you using?These are my settings:
@Branox
Your Hashes/W value is still pretty low. Right now your card is consuming more power while mining than my 1080. You should not run them with stock speeds. I turned my power target down to 70% and overclocked the memory and the core clock. If you leave the power target at 100% you are basically wasting energy for almost no gains. -
Is this normal?
After 24hrs i get only 17.14 FTC? What is “transactions in”?
-
This should go up as you stay at the pool for longer… I think. are you still on give-me-coins ?
-
@acidd
I dont think so. When I mined VTC, I got the the coins constantly after 1 hour of mining… Doesnt matter, I tried to change the node and I will see tomorrow :)Or better to change pool? give-me-coins is better?
-
Now I noticed that in this new node I have lower hashpower? Before I have 5.1MH/s and now I have 4.9MH/s :confused:
-
@branox My development branch. Should be released by Xmas.
-
@monkeysign
Bad News for you then Buddy. NeoScrypt is ASIC resistent at the moment. Don’t think this will change anytime soon… -

Is that a new miner coming out?! :astonished:
-
@tobi97l Does temperature not matter? Couldn’t having it too hot damage the cards?
-
70°C is not too hot. Anything over 90°C for a long period would be dangerous but even 80°C 24/7 is nothing to really worry about. But i would always stay below 80°C. During normal gaming using the stock fan profile the card can reach 80+°C too because that’s how the original fan profile works to make it more silent. It’s not really a problem.
So it does matter. But the card does not need to run at 60°C or something like that.
Also if it would get too hot the card does downclock itself to protect itself from damage. So it is almost impossible to destroy modern video cards by using a wrong fan profile. They will shutdown or manually clock themselves down automatically.
