Are there any EU Pools that supports CPU mining straight from the LTC Wallet? I can't connect to any of the pools I've registered with. I'm new to this so I can't see what the problem is...

This thread is for folding, not mining. Have you tried hypernova.pw they are a new pool with a server in Paris and a PPS reward system. Also, CPU mining is pretty much pointless compared to GPU.

Seems about right. Those older Xeon aren't the greatest, but 20K is pretty good. Issue is, running on server 2012. :) You should follow the guideline over at [H]ard on install and runnin ubuntu - will probably net more PPD.

We see you coming up behind us! We will not be beaten!

 

Well. actually, of course you will overtake so technically we will be beaten but we defy you anyway! :p

 

 

(Seeing as how you guys are new at this, I will explain. It is customary for overtakers to post messages on the overtakee's forum humourously insulting and generally announcing the impending stomp. I realise you guys are overtaking many people very often so I have been forced to come here and defy you first.)

 

Defiantly,

I think Ill be upgrading to a DL160G6 soon, 2X XEON L5520, they have a lower TDP then the ones i have now.

What kind of PPD do you think I can expect from those?

I would guesstimate about 25k or so... and you cannot do bigadv projects on those either. The Xeon chips do not perform at the level of a comparable AMD chip and I have found the older ones even less so. I have ML350G6 with dual Xeon whatever, mid range, and could only net about 12k PPD. Problem is, HP power supplies are horribly inefficient back then, so was also burning a lot of power. The new G8's though, they are pretty nice. :)

Upgrade to the DL160G6 is a go, ill have it Friday or Monday. €350, DL160G6, 2x XEON L5520, 32GB RAM (max for ESXi free) and a 160GB 7200 sata drive.

And i can sell my DL140G3 for roughly €250, so its a nice cheap upgrade.

Very nice upgrade. :)  Be interesting to see what PPD you get from the system.
