Working great on my 3570k, it's a bit faster that claymore's, few percents (263-->275), and what is best, it has lower fee if you want to, default is 4% I think, I'm mining at 2% atm.

Nice, miner is compiled for each CPU family and comes with tweaking hints text file.

Not so nice, blocked by Chrome as malware from the alt link.
Virustotal is OK from the main link:

Hi,
I use yam in Linux (ubuntu and Amazon) for XMR+FCN and after some time my shares start to get rejected with the following msg:

MINERGATE: Rejected share, reason: -15, Unknown job id

this becomes worse as time progresses

yvg1900 is aware of the issue, no solution at the moment, it's being investigated

As mentioned the issue is known, it is due to minergate's protocol, and so far they have not responded to request to work with Yvg to sort out this issue. Best thing to do meantime is use a different pool for which you will get virtually 0% rejects over very long runtime :)

any tutorial for useing this miner?

All configs and instructions in the download link
you need only to know you processor version( codename) and OS when you choose arhive

New mega location for Yam M7v: https://mega.co.nz/#F!UlkU0RyR!E8n4CFkqVu0WoOnsJnQkSg

New feature as work around to minergate rejects check readme under 4.8. Limiting session duration for MinerGate; for more info.

Let's give this one a go then.

can you share your config, i have a 3570k and it dont seem to go higher then 164 at 3 threads... thats on win 7. are you useing linux or windows?
and how do you even adjust the donation amounts......

Shot taken after a day of gaming, light video editing, surfing etc... On fresh boot, everything that consumes resources closed, it climbs to 275H/s.
Can't take a new shot as I'm abroad atm...
And fee editing, I think it can't be completely disabled, but adjusted within 2-XX%, not sure if 2% is a minimum, that is the set amount if one removes the &donation-interval=50 from the mining params
E: And it is clocked to 4.8, so that might make a make a difference too... (depending of your OC ofc :))

ah that might explain it, mine is all stock as a rock clocks lol.....
i noticed your useing it on windows 8, how did you get it working without the hugepage file error..... i wanna try it on my 4770k and 4900MQ but i cant get it working stable on win 8.1

*Edit
now at 232 at 4.4ghz. dont wanna push it higher in stock air cooler. much appreciated.... :)

You're welcome :)

Did not have hugepages error on YAM(what kind of error), Might be so cos I enabled LargePages (Microsofts version of hugepages) when I first started testing with Wolfs miner.  Did it with this : http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms190730.aspx (http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms190730.aspx)
Added administrators to that group and ran the miner as admin ofc.
Quite nice clocks for stock cooler :P
And maybe that is why you are a 10% lower on speed (clock to clock) than mine. Other thing is, opening anything, even a web browser, even for a split second takes some perfomance.

this is the error i get.

and i have tried to set lockpages according to the instructions...

*Edit
i got it working, was just windows being windows lol. lets see what speed i get on my 4770k compared to claymores version.
just need to figure out how to make it work on non pro version of win 8 as group polocies editor seems to have been left out....

speed updates:
stock 4770k does 309h/s..... claymores does 270
I7 2600 non K edition does 272 at 4ghs... impressive for an older chip lol. claymores does 220
3570k does 232 at 4.4ghz, claymores does about 200
I7 4900MQ does 270h/s, claymores it does 240ish....

most def a comparable difference between the 2 miners.....

are there new version for these cpus? because when i check the download pages it says uploaded at 28.6.2014

my i7 970 overclocked to 4ghz which is a 6 core 12 thread processor gets around 250H/s on wolf cpuminer.

I tried yams this morning, but couldn't even get close to 200H/s, it stayed around 155H/s.  I'm not sure what I may be doing wrong.  Also, as a side note, hugepages is enabled and this cpu does support AES-NI

Does this work for non AES_NI

I seem to get higher hash with Wolf's as well, though only for hugepages on linux and AES-NI enabled in BIOS and on CPU.
Everything else Yam seems to win, especially for Windows.  Is setting the donation interval to 100 saying for each of my 100 shares, do 100 for dev?
I had it set on that and actually seemed to get a nice rate on minergate still.
Setting it to 50 didn't seem to make much difference.

Anyone know if there's a way to specify an "@" in the password for YAM in yam-xmr.cfg?

I'm trying to mine here:

http://dwarfpool.com/xmr

Where you can put your email as the password to get status updates, however YAM treats everything after the @ as part of the server address in the following line:

mine = stratum+tcp://address.1:my@gmail.com@erebor.dwarfpool.com:8005:8050:8080:8100/xmr

anyone got any tips here?

I tried putting the email address in "'s but no joy. YAM tries to connect to a server at gmail.com@erebor.dwarfpool.com and obviously fails.

Also thanks to the person who created this! It's faster than Wolf's miner for me - enough to offset the developer fee!

I thought that every x number of shares it does 1 for the dev.

e.g. a donation interval of 50 gives 1 in 50 (2%) to the dev.

It will be nice if support for XDN will be added.
Nice miner, low fee, nice job!
Please add support for Ducknote!

Hi,

have you read the manual ?

As this is a support topic, there should be a few manuals like "how to" for the ones who wants to start as newbies.
