[GPUC] GPU Coin | Mandatory Wallet Update

[wacko]

Hi all! Are these the cards that are sold in gpucoin store? Found a sweet local deal on them. If they're not, is it worth picking these for mining? What would be hashrates for them on known algos? thanks in advance.

Code:

Brand     Gigabyte
Model     Radeon R9 280X
MPN       GV-R928XOC-3GD

No, it's just a bug in the gpucoin store website. The 280s listed there are Sapphire 280x Toxic, but when you click on the item, the title on the description page says "Gigabyte 280x". The cards on sale are actually Sapphire Toxic and not Gigabyte.

Whether it's worth picking those or not is totally up to the buyer. Considering the kind of questions you're asking it's probably not worth it.

I have 4xGigabyte GV-R928XOC-3GD-GA. I think it almost the same. 
Hashrate for some algo:
Scrypt - ~710kH/s
Scrypt-N - ~360kH/s
x11 - ~2000kH/s
Some settings - core - 1025MHz, memory - 1500Mhz, vddc - 1.075v
Other algos i don't tested

Besides voting on Mintpal you could also help spread the word about this coin using Twitter.

For example I just retweeted this Tweet from @GPUCoin regarding Video Card Contest:

I just started to mine X11 coin and that algo is really great. Instead of my GPU running at 80C it runs now at less than 50C.

STOP BEING IDIOTS SAYING SCRYPT-N RUNS HOT. IT RUNS THE SAME TEMPS ON MY 10 280x's as NORMAL SCRYPT. AND YES, KECCAK or X11 WILL RUN COOLER BECAUSE IT IS DOING LESS WORK, DUH! I CAN PLAY VIDEO GAMES WHILE I AM MINING KECCAK OR X11, YOU CAN'T DO THAT ON SCRYPT-N OR SCRYPT BECAUSE YOU ARE USING THE FULL POTENTIAL OF YOUR GPU.  DON'T POST IF YOU ARE A NOOB SPREADING STUPID INFO. MY CARDS ARE NEVER OVER 72C or 50% FAN. AND THE RETARDED RUMORS OF SCRYPT-N RUINING VIDEO CARDS ARE JUST THAT, RUMORS.  IF YOU CHOOSE TO RUN ANY MINING ALGO OR EVEN VIDEO GAME AT 95C 24/7, THEN YOU MAY KILL YOUR CARD. YOU WILL NOT HARM YOUR CARD RUNNING SCRYPT-N AT NORMAL VOLTAGE, SPEEDS, AND TEMPERATURES.  IF YOUR CARD IS GETTING TO HOT, UNDERVOLT IT, LOWER SPEEDS, OR COOL IT PROPERLY.

I have been saying X11 from the start, no telling how this coin would be doing if anybody had actually listened. I mean why scrypt-n, it's literally the worst choice for several reasons.

I know they are sold out, but what is with the toxic being listed at half price?

(store is selling them for less than 5 million, which is the price if GPUCoin was 14 satoshi)

I picked one up last night for over twice the price.

You see thats the problem here, If you people think just being on an exchange will change anything your our of your minds.

This is correct for the most part (things like lack of marketing and the overall difficulty of obtaining the coins are holding us back), but a bigger exchange will help some.

One of the difficulties in getting GPUCoin is obtaining it on a market that lacks liquidity.

In order to buy the toxic I had to pay extra because I was required to purchase at 8 satoshi since there was not enough liquidity.

Unless they have been saving up (which I was burnt on as well) it is difficult to obtain the coins at the price the GPUs are listed at.

A larger exchange should help this.

change the start page link https://poloniex.com/ on https://poloniex.com/exchange/btc_gpuc as many can not understand.

There's only R7 240's left the sale seems to have gone well! Remember you can still be entered to win an R7 240 by purchasing an R7 240! Great odds!

I wish GPUCoin would move to X11.  It's the only Scrypt coin I mine now.  Cuts down on hydro use and heat.

[jollyriffic]

that one guy was screaming about x11 and stated he could game while mining.
dear baby jesus i wish i could game mining this coin. i've only got 1 gpu so since this coin has dropped, i haven't gamed at all
i miss titanfall so much

The store is getting its API pull from bittrex.com and someone bought up the coin to like 16 satoshi there.

1- No, you just want to create a situation where early adopters are all whales and own the market. I've been mining since day one, this is an awful idea. Also the block reward will reduce to 10,000 per the 250,000 blocks halving built in. and subsequently halve every 250,000 blocks thereafter.

2- Its bad for business to change the algo, plus with scrypt asics coming out scrypt-n is a good place to be. Considering its the next stop for the gpu miners currently on scrypt who will be pushed out by asics.

3- obviously, because your post is the opposite of this...

4- There is a lot of this already going on, there is only so much that can be done to raise awareness. The best way is trade volume and votes to get the coin on larger exchanges.
