temp ban a pool or part of it for some time would be nice via GUI, it will save some time for cut/paste conf file and no need to stop mining.
Gone and done it https://mega.co.nz/#!wNtDTS5T!0AYfDx8bOUPPsa1w8eHJvE6p07eTvvl5TDuLYKhrz14Doubleclick a pool and it bans all entries of that pool until you doubleclick it again or restart minercontrol. Useful when some pool borks out, like Yaamp did today Source: https://github.com/KBomba/MinerControl-KBombaI kept the donation addys the same, so if you want to donate to me, my BTC addy is in my signature I also added dynamic switching to the mix. If the price difference between the best entry and currently running one is very large, it will switch to it faster than the "switchtime" setting. Dynamic switchtime = "switchtime" / ((best entry price / currently running price) ^ "dynamicswitchpower"). (if anyone knows a better formula, feel free to tell I'm not a mathematician) Add these to "general": "dynamicswitching": true, "dynamicswitchpower": 2, At 200% profit, it will switch at 1/4th of the original switchtime, which is 1min at default values (4min). 150% => 1min and 46s, 120% => 2min and 46s, etc Under Yaamp settings, I added "balancemode". It defaults to 0, which is "Total Unpaid", the total of all unsold and sold coins, which also was default behavior up to now. I prefer to set balancemode at 1, which will give me "Balance", the total of just the sold coins. Looks more like a Nicehash balance that way But needs some time to build up if you're new to Yaamp probably. More values here: Github

Advise needed,
I'm using an nVidia GTX750ti to mine an x11 coin (CannabisCoin) with ccMiner. Getting around 2.2Gh
that's a pretty good overclock. use sp release it should give you around 3MH/s sp release? How do I find it and does it run on Win8.1? I don't know code but if I can get it installed....I can make it work. I let you search... It's not far away

i don't have detail but it maybe a AMD 55xx HD with 2gb vram i used it to gaming
That's a pretty old card, it will not reward you anything big in comparison to electricity (and headache ) costs, so be prepared for that. Anyways, I'll reply with a quote ^^" Any x11 algo coin like darkcoin is good for GPU mining. But its currently not profitable I'm a cuda-fanboy, don't have any AMDs at all, but afaik X11 (and sometimes X13) will be the most profitable for AMD miners Look for the Wolf0 kernel, it will give you better rates IIRC.

Possibly Vertcoin
Lol, maybe a year ago Nah, try XMG, it should give you a block someday, since there are no GPU miners available for their algo, unlike Vertcoin.

i just want to enjoy mining some coins to get money don't care about other things
That's the spirit Anyways, what GPU do you have?
|
|

I have a 780Ti and a 760, and running GPU-Z reports they both support Compute 5.0. I just updated the drivers, and using -d to separate and test the cards one at a time shows the same error with both cards. Any recommendations? As far as I can tell, this is the only version of ccminer I can find which supports the Lyra2 algo (and all your other algo optimizations are also very helpful), so I'd really like to get this to work. Thanks! Wouldn't be the first time GPU-Z is wrong on anything Check your GPU here, under "Cuda-Enabled Geforce Products": https://developer.nvidia.com/cuda-gpusBut I can already tell you a 780ti is compute 3.5 and a 760 is 3.0

I didn't found SHA-256 algo in the help list... How do I solo mine Bitcoin, could you please help me with the command line? I use the Multibit wallet. tks Hah, he should add it to --help Anyways, if I see it right, it's -a bitcoin

i'm using gtx 970, and when i started guiminer, it appear unable to load cuda module. I'm using last nvidia driver.
that's the kind of things which happen when you resurrect old thread It gets even worse the older the thread is... and this one is verrrry old I didn't know there were other cudaminers before the real cudaminer (and now ccminer) ^^ Thanks for reviving this one

Is it possible to run both nvidia and amd cards in the same system and mine with both at the same time or use one for mining and the other for gaming and regular tasks ?
If so, how do you do it.
Thanks
yes, it is possible. But if you use the nvidia for gaming you won't be able to use physx if an amd card is detected Great tip about that physx. Didn't know that. So on-GPU won't work at all, everything offloaded to CPU? Can't you assign another GPU to do the PhysX? (if you have a spare 750TI, best Physx accelerator ever)

I run miners on realtime since ever and only cudaminer locked up the system a few times when it crashed a card. I very rarely had that with ccminer.
Yeah, but it's still possible That's why we really need --cpu-priority and --cpu-affinity to robustly set them up through cli & scripts. There are already workarounds for this, but built-in is always better, easier and more straight-forward.

I'm gonna keep repeating it: setting to high, higher than high, stoned high, doesn't make a difference. Setting it to realtime does, but might lock up your system.
that's right Yep Unless you assign it to a specific core (if you have more than one on your rig ), so you still have cores left that won't be locked. Chances of locking up are low though, but it is possible. One would want to eliminate as much point-of-failures on a continuous mining system.

soon time to build number 32.
I saw that you hardcoded the realtime priority. I'd advice against it: if for some reason the process loops endlessly, the complete rig will freeze up. Don't do realtime if you're not watching your rigs (and there are many like that around..) So that's where the command line, like with KlausT and tpruvot comes in handy: --cpu-priority and --cpu-affinity The commands --cpu-priority and --cpu-affinity .... what exactly do they do? It looks self explanatory, but? thx They set the process priority and affinity Realtime priority (5) will grant full priority of your miner over any other process on your windows. This boosts your speed a lot, I've seen quark go up by +200kh by using realtime priority. Setting affinity will lock it to certain core(s), so the threads don't hop around too much. If you grant realtime priority to a process, it could lock/freeze up your system (nothing else can kill it), but if you assign it to only 1 out of 4 cores, other processes (like taskmgr) can run on the other 3 cores and kill it, if necessary. Also, if you run cpuminers next to ccminer, or something else that's cpu intensive like av scan, and they run on the same core(s), they'll interfere with eachother. You don't want to lose 200kh quark per 750ti because some funny CPU only coin you're mining next to it I've also seen on some cpuminers/algos that setting up a different process per CPU core, and locking them to an assigned core, they perform much better. This doesn't mean it will necessarily boost ccminer speed (at the moment), but it doesn't hurt it at all to say the least. I'd like it mostly because it's much easier to manage your low-level-hardware miners. In release 32 I have set the default priority to High. I haven't merged the parameter code yet, so you cannot change this. I didn't notice any difference eighter. CPU usage is down to 1% in x11 and 3% in quark. I'm gonna keep repeating it: setting to high, higher than high, stoned high, doesn't make a difference. Setting it to realtime does, but might lock up your system.

Sp, can you take a look at tpruvots latest additions? (KlausT has them too already) Setting --cpu-priority 5 (sets it to realtime from command line whoohoo) gives a nice extra Even "highest" priority doesn't get this boost on windows.
