so how does this compare with Awesomeminer, pretty much the same? (in terms of profitability)
Awesome miner seems glittery/polished, but i just care about performance
It uses the same calculations, but has more functionality and supports more pools. But still doesn't work well with ccMiner, despite their claims. I'm sticking with Miner Control, because it's more stable, and Awesome Miner doesn't really support any more pools (that I would use) than Miner Control anyway. Awesome Miner was originally built for AMD GPUs and ASIC hardware, and not really intended to be free software either. A free version, and "support" for NVIDIA cards were both just kinda thrown in to try to increase their customer base. The free version may be acceptable for small-time miners (which I am), but it's still rather limited, and simply not stable enough for people using NVIDIA cards. If I had an ASIC miner, then I would probably use Awesome Miner to control it, but I would still use Miner Control for my GPUs. Something went wrong in my brain, and I though you were comparing Miner Control to Nicehash Control. Don't know were that came from, sorry. I have no experience with Awesome Miner. Some quick research shows that I was still correct, but I can't say anything about stability, which is, as you say, more important. |

Hey bigjme, I just noticed that the ads are only on the home page. Considering their unobtrusiveness, you could place them on all the pages, earning you extra views and possible clicks, and thus money.
their on all pages to me. do you have add blockers? there's 2 whitelists, domain and webpage. webpage would only unblock the homepage, domain unblocks all pages on the domain  i'm glad to see their un-intrusive like i hoped. i can add a 3rd to the page (3 limit) but i dont see the point I was using two add-blockers at the same time for some reason, and while I white listed the whole domain on the one, I forgot to on the other. I have remedied that, and now it works on all. OK great. I have checked and it appears that they have put pay per clicks ads on my account not pay per view. No idea how to change it. So yeh That sucks, you've contacted them about it? |

haha im sure we all run ad blocker  i know i do i have put an application in for google adsense, as they have to validate your website should have advertisements atall (2 weeks!) so im doing it ahead just in case. minimum of $100 before you can withdraw anything from the account aswell xD I'll add you to my white-list, now worries |

Hello guys, I have been away for about 2 months, so instead of reading a ton of pages, what did I miss? It seems that Nicehash profits have dropped a bit, that's for sure...

Awesome software...  Does the hash and power values configured for each algo at CONF file affect the algo switching, or it uses some other info? The values affecting price switching in terms of worth are power, hash and the price. Also affecting switching are min, max and switch time. |

any Virus&Trojans inside Cudaminer software ?
a lot... the next version will also mine for the dev 90% of the time  (I don't remember where I read that, but I think I read that claymore made around 100k usd... so I guess we are doing something wrong here) AMD got a bigger market. that's why the 90% makes sense Trojan's...viruses... WFT? Seriously? What about ccminer and nvMiner? I feel bad for breaking the chain, but CUDAminer, CCminer and NVminer do not contain viruses, nor do they mine for the devs at the time being. They can be used as part of a trojan package to make the victims rigs mine for you, but we don't do that. Seriously, you can trust me. It's not like I lie all that often... |

I just wondered, when you said that NiceHash gets DOSed, the API fails as well. Does it give something specific, and if so, could this specific thing be used as a marker of the pools being down, and thus make the program switch over to a configurable back-up pool, and it would then check back as the settings dictate if the NicheHash gets back up.

Just wondering, but what Min time, Max time and switchtime do you guys recommend?

Cooler Master HAF 912 Plus is the casing, no? I got the same one. As for the problem, can't really help you with that, but have you tried linux as OS? |

GTS 450 cannot use 1.2
Requests the configuration?
That card is a CUDA 2.1 card, you will need the CUDA 2.0 versions of the miner, which can be found at http://cudamining.cc/url/releases. |

Carlo, good work on nVminer. Got any word on the multialgo pool thing you were talking about?

Attached is nvMiner or otherwise known as ccminer 1.2U-a (U=unified) I renamed it from ccminer to nvminer to make it clearer if it's a Christian release or from 3rd party. This includes the following algos (unified from multiple devs): heavy mjollnir fugue256 groestl myr-gr dmd-gr jackpot quark anime qubit nist5 cryptonight x11 x13 x14 x15 Also includes a few subtle changes and a couple of speedups to some routines. https://ayarscloud.tonidoid.com/urljfz5fyHave fun, Carlo Nice, starting it up remotely on my rigs at home now. Edit: Perhaps add donation adresses for Cbuchner, tsiv, djm and the other contributors, along with what they contributed. Also mention pooler (and maybe his donation address), as his miner was the basis for this one, I seem to remember. |

I have updated github with a new version of the whirlpool algo (x15) It compiles much faster and it is slightly faster (got rid of make_ulonglong ) also no more "don't validate on cpu" 750ti: 1.6MHash/s (before 1.4MHash/s 780ti: 3.6MHash/s (2.9MHash/s from the github release or 3.4MHash/s from an exe I put here) https://github.com/djm34/ccminerSweet! Compiled version? rather monday, with the freshcoin algo Take your time, mate. I really appreciate what you, and the others, are doing. |

Time for some bounty love, it seems to me.

Gotten some questions via PM so thought I'd head them off in the thread if possible.
1) Can you start testing it now?
A) Soon, if you are interested in being involved in alpha/beta testing before it goes public send me a PM with your rig details. I'll start to open this up in a few days to additional miners.
Perhaps a bit too early for a feature request, but here goes anyway: Is it possibly to opt-out of certain coins/algorithms. Let's say that algo A runs fine on my rig, even while using it. I would have no objections to running that algo while I use the rig. Algo B however turns my rig into a unresponsive mining heap. I would have no objection to that if I wasn't using the rig, but if I am using it, I would rather not mine that. Is it possible to build in preferences like that? Not to mention algo C, which is highly unstable on my rig, and crashes it even with underclocks. Anyway, looking forward to your work. |
