crashes all algos on my windows 8.1  and i cant get doom to work im reading back My GPU order gets screwed up and lose a lot of hashes. And they dare to call this WHQL  I hope they're reading this (if not, be ashamed, Nvidia!) |

As with the other 340.xx drivers, they screw up my GPU order and make at least one GPU underperforming. Tried a clean install of the driver, even manual, didn't work. |

that's mostly the reason I don't use it anymore (and have trouble with github, since I have to change it back before putting my stuff on github)
I've been reading some of your experiences with github and it doesn't sound like to much fun. Yeah, I secretly lolled when I saw your endless flow of github fixing commits, djm  |

I've opened up a channel on irc.freenode.net, #ccminer ( kiwii webIRC or irc://irc.freenode.net/ccminer ). This whole thread already looks already like a chat so I figured a real chat might be easier  |

Webbson from poolpicker already setup a comparison with his numbers he gets from their API and the numbers suchmoon delivers: http://poolpicker.eu/vsI guess that could be called a "wall of shame" lol |

Try the profit calc in my signature to get an idea of what's the most profitable. Ok, it still depends on how well you can trade, but the ratio's should be the same CoinKing is having issues, it's better to avoid that pool for the time being. My profit calc also holds data from poolpicker.eu and cryp.today, so you can also use it to look at the historic payouts for different pools and algo's. Also, DONT DO SCRYPT WITH GPUs. That time's over  Scrypt is the playground of ASICs now, your GPUs won't be able to compete. Mine something else like X11 or CryptoNight. @DJM: Well, latest cudaminer was fine, but the 750ti was thé revelation. Best hashrate/wattage/initial cost ratios for a gpu, and still is |

mmh, too much lag with this version
chrome lag too much, everything is really slow, i don't like it
I guess it is the consequence of increasing the number of threads (my cards are not plugged into any monitor). This need to be adjusted... I will change it back to what it was, I think that stuff is a bit too experimental... (also the change was targeted at the 780ti and other big cards with plenty of cuda cores... might be a lot for 750ti plugged into a monitor and its gpu usage is already pretty close to 99%) Yesterday release was mainly for keccak my other rig isn't plugget as well(is fine there), but my main(which is a gaming rig also, well not much anymore since 750ti aren't top for gaming, i'm waiting for big nvidia beasts for that) is plugged yes Watch your words I can play Skyrim on full, so that little 750ti monster suffices for me But yeah, even my 760 still does better at gaming, much higher fps. Can't wait for the 8xx monsters The 750ti still makes a great gpu for a casual gamer or for HTPC's |

The CoinKing Scrypt numbers are still looking awful. They're about a third of what shows up on poolpicker, presumably through the CoinKing API.
Kind of hard to believe that exchange automation would cause a 2/3rds discrepancy. Maybe their API is just, er, exaggerated.
Suchmoon, can you think of any other reasonable explanation for the discrepancy?
If not maybe I'll post on the CoinKing thread and ask what the deal is.
I'm starting to regret asking you to add CoinKing. Sorry if they turn out badly...
They run a coins diff and reward trough a simple profit calc, like the one I'm making, and multiply that by the percentage of time it's being mined. Add that together and you get their API results. If you use their auto-trader, you'll get 1/3. If you use your own trading system (auto-payout to an exchange), it will be a lot higher, depending on your trading skills, but normally never 100%. But if you're that good at trading, why not just play the game and stop mining |

Working well for me on a test box. Any chance of getting it working with Cudaminer?
Thanks for testing Awesome Miner. Cudaminer doesn't provide any API's for getting statistics and information from the miner. I've noticed that this is one of the items on their Todo-list, so it might be available in future versions. Once Cudaminer provides an API, support for Cudaminer can be implemented in Awesome Miner. Don't get your hopes up for an API. I started making a profit-switcher for cuda, and had to "consume" the cmd output to get all the data. It's such a PITA, I ended up just working on the profit calculation part, and so my Profit Calc was born Anyways, if you really want cuda integrated, you'll either need to reprogram cudaminer/ccminer with an API yourself ( ) or consume it and run it in the background. CudaManager does the same but hasn't been updated for ccminer IIRC. |

If you're doubting between nvidia and amd, go mixed There's no problem with that. |

Hey, hey, it's not me that's running cudamining.cc That's bigjme ^^" I like the sound of Bombidil though (jk) |

I'm missing CryptoNight ^^"

Welp. Managed to split the most offensive part of the kernel into four parallel threads per hash, result is spectacularly unimpressive. The best I've come up with breaks even with the current single thread per hash implementation. Well, almost. It's actually a percent slower AND loses compute 2.0 compatibility due to using shuffle. On the other hands it performs a lot more reasonably with various launch configurations, 15 blocks of 32 threads works our equally well as the original 8x60 magic bullet for 750 Ti. At this point I'm starting to think I'll just forget about that part and start looking if there's something else to be improved. I'm still curious as to how it runs on other hardware, so if a couple of gents on Win boxes with something else than a 750 Ti in would be willing to take it for a spin, I'd appreciate it. I've added the number for SMX/SMM/Whateverthingmabobs into the miner thread start-up info, you'll probably find your card performing best when the block count is a multiple of the SMX count and the number of threads a power of 2. 4/8/16/32/64 are the best bets. https://github.com/tsiv/ccminer-cryptonight/releases/download/v0.15-rc1/ccminer-cryptonight_20140723_exp.zipAlso, any chances for this code to get released already? Or are you competing against Wolf0 It works like a charm, 220H/s for GTX760, before it was 190. GTX750TIs seem unchanged. I get 270H(peaks of 297H with -l 8x50) with this release and a GTX 760 overclocked -->v0.15-rc1 ccminer-cryptonight_20140723 Thanks for that launch setting 306H/s (MSI gaming, +180core, +500mem). Still have to test what's the most stable, but thanks for giving me a start Ooh damn, you've released that a looong time ago, tsiv. Should've noticed ^^" EDIT: 320H/s with +222core, +666mem I'm waiting anxiously for a driver crash |

It appears to be an issue with nicehash control -- I have this issue with any CCminer 1.1, 1.2, and the latest NVMiner build.
Behavior only present on auto-switching.
The behavior is present across multiple rigs (780 rigs, 750ti rigs). Running the miner with a built in pause command does not change the behavior either.
Again, it still generates shares, but they are either not submitted to my deposit address, or it is running in benchmark mode.
It's typical fast-ccminer-switching behavior. There might be a need of a certain pause before it launches a new miner. Something like 10-30 seconds would be fine (and would make a nice .conf setting). I've noticed it before while playing with different algo's ^^" Running 10-20 yay's and quickly switching to another algo was a bad idea |

Thanks for the reply. I'm actually averaging 2550 kh/s with CCMiner and a EVGA GTX750Ti... It appears that you're getting a higher rate than I am; are you using any specific commands?
Just a good overclock will do this You'll need to use 3rd party software though. |
