Title: GUIMiner , GTX680 og Cuda mining
Post by: Ikox on April 12, 2013, 12:37:38 PM
Hey,

Så jeg har forsøgt og sætte min GUIMiner til og bruge Cuda mineren , men det virker lidt som om jeg mangler noget, nærmere specifikt

miners\puddinpop\rpcminer-cuda.exe

i min guiminer mappe er det eneste jeg har locale mappen

rpc-miner må du laste ned separat
Her er en link til rpcminer-cuda som støtter Cuda 3.0 (GTX6xx) http://www.qfpost.com/file/d?g=mwrLcmBsL

>Gonna do this in english in case norwegian gets hard to follow
>When downloaded, extract the files to /guiminer/miners/puddinpop/
>If the .exe file you extracted there matches the path and name of the one present in guiminer, you're good to go, if not, change to what's correct

RPC miner arguments
Don't use the arguments guiminer has fields for as is, in fact only the lower four are relevant for you as arguments in guiminer.

-url=http://example.com:8332
  The URL of the RPC server.

-user=username
  The username used to connect to the RPC server.

-password=password
  The password used to connect to the RPC server.

-threads=x
  Start this number of miner threads.  The default value is the number of cores
  on your processor if using a CPU miner, or 1 if using a GPU miner.

-statusurl=http://example.com/stats/json/
  The URL of a server that will respond with a json object of the server stats.
  Currently, only slush's server stats are available.  The stats will be
  printed by the client every minute.  Not specifying a url will result in no
  stats being displayed.

-workrefreshms=xxxx
  Work will be refreshed from the server this often.  Each thread that is
  started needs its own work.  The default value is 4000ms.  If you have a
  fast miner, or are using lots of threads, you might want to reduce this.

-aggression=xxx
  Specifies how many hashes (2^(X-1)) per kernel thread will be calculated.
  The default is 6.  It starts at 1 and goes to 32, with each successive
  number meaning double the number of hashes.  Sane values are 1 to 12 or
  maybe 14 if you have some super card.

-gpu | -gpu=x
  Turns on GPU processing on specific GPU device.  Indexes start at 0.  If you
  just use -gpu without =X it will pick the device with the max GFlops when
  using the CUDA miner and the first device when using OpenCL.

-gpugrid=x
  Specifies what the grid size of the kernel should be.  Useful for fine tuning
  hash rate.

-gputhreads=x
  Specifies how many threads per kernel invocation should run.  Useful for fine
  tuning hash rate.

Sell the Nvidia get a AMD end of story.

just out of curiosity what sort of hashing power does that put out?

About 120 M/Hash, which is downright abysmal.
My laptop's GTX 660M @33W churns out about 37M/Hash, the GTX 680 demands 100watts, which means it's only slightly better than a laptop at mining, which really should illustrate the futility of mining with it.

I wouldn't really take the advice of the other guy and "buy an AMD card", sure it's a lot better but with ASICS you probably won't earn back what you invested, better to just invest the cash you have in bitcoins anywhere under $110 and profit on that.
