Anyone got a CCminer30 version of V1.2?
82  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN] cudaMiner & ccMiner CUDA based mining applications [Windows/Linux/MacOSX] on: June 15, 2014, 01:11:03 PM

ccMiner v1.2 is now in the github repo. It adds X13 and Diamond-Groestl

thanks to tsiv and Bombadil for these contributions.

I'll do a binary release tonight after our BBQ.

Christian


Awesome!

Bombadil, can you do a compute 2.1 version of this as well? I would be much obliged for it.

Thanks to the three of you (Cbuchner, tsiv and Bombadil) for the amazing work.

For those who were wondering when I would release my profit calculator , it's here Wink Loads of people were asking for it, but it isn't the profit switcher yet. But it's a big part of it, so tell me your findings.
https://github.com/KBomba/cuda-profit-calc/releases

Requires NET4.5!

It has all the hashrates set for a gtx750ti by default. Measured by taking the average of 10 accepts in which both my cards, EVGA SC & Gigabyte, contributed. Stock OC.  

Maybe u should open Nvidia multipool switcher using what u have created and charge pool fee. I bet u will make a lot of BTC in long run since Nvidia might take over AMD by year end and your pool will be unique with no competitor. Perhaps part of the pool fee goes to cbuchner1 as donation for being the creator of ccminer and continuous effort in improving ccminer. Developer win , you win ,  Nvidia miner win , everybody win  Cool


I'd welcome the idea of someone creating a profit switching nVidia-centric multipool.

Patches to support such feature within ccMiner would be welcome.



Ah, CUDApool, pool of my dreams. If you get something like that working, you will already have one miner working there Smiley.

Edit: Perhaps something like that algo switcher NiceHash has for SGminer could be worked in, between CCminer and the pool. That would be awesome.

Edit 2: And perhaps some anti-'Coin-crash' switching algorithm, distributing the hashing power of the pool over multiple coins. Multipools have a habit of crashing markets of coins when they become the most profitable coin. This crash can be avoided by distributing the hashes, to, let's say, a certain max percentage of the net hashrate. I believe wemineall.com has something like that.

Can someone mod the new x11 speed to x13 ?

I believe people are working on it.

Thanks. man! When I get home I will start benchmarking all the algos to get a full profitability list. I've been thinking about getting more active with switching coins and doing my own trading, and this will help me out big time.

Is there some way to change the default hash numbers, so that I can put in my own? Also, could you make it so that when a field is empty, that it does not give a warning, but rather assumes zero?

Thanks again, man, and I can't wait to see what you're going to do with the manager, once you get a good sleeping pattern. Good luck with that! Also, you can probably expect a little bit of BTC (I'm no big time miner, so it won't be jaw dropping) from me, some time soon.
85  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN] cudaMiner & ccMiner CUDA based mining applications [Windows/Linux/MacOSX] on: June 13, 2014, 05:56:24 AM
So should i take that as we want it puttin up as a new version?

Not as a new version, but rather as a "mod" Tongue

I've just finished compiling it for 3.0, 3.5 & 5.0 Wink
https://mega.co.nz/#!hVN3xZQJ!VQYLZeqVVwjFuZrY5jqp_Qcw6TutNOgSVRx0l1HXfgw
2.x should work too, but hasn't been tested (if anyone could, please! Cheesy )

Bombadil, both the ccminer30 (on my GTX 770, with 2100 Khash/s)) and 21 (940 khash on my GTX 470) version work. Thank you for the compiling and work on 21 and thanks to tsiv for making X13 work.

Edit: As it turns out, it is still more profitable for me to mine X11 for Nicehash. Oh well, I still have the opportunity now, for when the prices change. I will let my rigs mine X13 for a while, to test the stability of the miners.

Dang, the miner download got blocked again by the firewall they've set up at my building. Well, I have to be at the Uni tomorrow anyway, I'll just download it there. It's really odd, some miners, or even wallets, get blocked, while others do not. One time one version of CCminer got blocked, while an older version did not.
87  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN] cudaMiner & ccMiner CUDA based mining applications [Windows/Linux/MacOSX] on: June 12, 2014, 05:34:39 PM
Aaand it's out: https://github.com/tsiv/ccminer

Insert the standard "if your house burns down, totally not my fault" disclaimer here.

Windows build should be fine as well, at least I managed to compile it myself. I won't be releasing any binaries, feel free to do so yourselves though.

Christ gonna release killer goretl version probably before or during weekend. The new version will upgrade x11 speed gtx 750 ti to 2.8 - 3. Maybe u should wait for the new release and implement your code which will increase x13 speed significantly. Or maybe both of u can combine code and do a combine release ? So the new version will have killer goretl + x13. That is pretty exciting.

Should be an easy modification, right now my X13 is using the same code for the first 11 algos as the original X11. At the simplest it just takes a recompile after throwing in the new groestl version.

no reason to wait  Grin
Actually I just curious to know what I did wrong

I have a very good idea about that Smiley I did end up messing with the original echo hash, it seemed to have an extraneous xor that made the full 512 bit hash come out wrong. Then using that result for the additional hamsi+fugue hashes kinda ends badly. The funny thing is that it worked fine for X11 because it was the last hashing algo in the chain and the X11 algo only takes the first 256 bits of the hash, discarding the rest and the flipped bit ended up in the discarded part. Was a bitch to track down for sure.


ok, it's working.
Actually, I had a couple of other mistakes regarding bit swapping (I am rather bit illiterate...), which could have been solved by random trials   Grin but for the echo, it was clearly outside my level of competence (however I was suspecting something funny, as it wasn't possible to add new algo on top of this one).

In terms of speed I am getting between 1700khah/s and 1800khash/s with the 750ti.

I found something else interesting, it is possible to run on X13 p2pool with X11 algo  Grin and to get validated share (not sure if it works for the "big" share, but for the rest it works)

You have a working version of CCminer, capable of mining X13? Would you care to share Smiley (BTW, I use an GTX 770)?
88  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN] cudaMiner & ccMiner CUDA based mining applications [Windows/Linux/MacOSX] on: June 12, 2014, 09:54:03 AM
What will be the next step for ccminer going forward ? It seems that there is no news regarding new release or development. Can we expect to see anything new this month ?

I think even before the weekend. Adding that killer groestl should be an easy exercise.

Would be great !!!

Groestl is very energy efficient, great algo.

Not to mention that it would speed up X11 as well.
89  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN] cudaMiner & ccMiner CUDA based mining applications [Windows/Linux/MacOSX] on: June 11, 2014, 02:11:30 PM
Uro is a great X11 coin for ccminer on GTX 750 Ti and GTX 780 Ti, its heavily undervalued due to the fact its 1:1 backed to the value of 1 metric tonne of Urea fertilizer: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=600639.0
that coin always sounded like a big joke to me (the pisscoin... composition based...). I am pretty sure there is an inside joke everybody overlooked  Grin

The first thing I thought was that someone was taking a stab at the Euro, due to the similarity in sound when you say them out aloud.

Anyone knows of a monitoring programs for CudaMiner / ccMiner ? Something in the style of cgwatcher / cgremote ?

Currently using CudaManager, but it's only good as a fail switch really.
Look above your post. I (and some others independently lol) are busy working on it ^^"
So not yet, but it's in the making.
Oh, I read your post, but it seemed like you're working on some profit switching program, not a monitoring one. But if you will have local and remote monitoring options as well than that would be great! Wouldn't even mind paying for it (did for cgremote) - so long as it's just as solid.

He indeed talked about monitoring, something like cudamanager. I don't know about the remote monitoring, but if he gets local to work, remote should be doable as well, I think.

Guys, about the nicehash price comparator, i have had this idea about it for a while. Sadly, I am no programmer, and while I guess I could teach myself, it would be more efficient if I just explained the idea here, so that the people working on it can take what they like from it. So here goes.

Imagine a GUI, with a set of windows for each algo supported. In the first table, you can input the bat-file for that algo. In the second table you can put the average khash of that .bat, the third containing the energy-cost for that algo, if applicable.

Now, what the program does is getting the prices from the Nicehash API, from that it gets the price per khash. It then computes the BTC one of the bat-files would make if run, detracts the energycost from it, and then runs the one with the highest profit, if the profit is existent, that is, if you don't lose more money in energy than you get in BTC. For this energy-cost inclusion in the process, getting the BTC/dollar or euro price is necessary, so you would need to use an API from one of the bigger exchanges for this.

That's the base idea. If possible, a number of other ideas could be implemented, some like CUDA-manager, such as overheating protection, yays per minute, average khash/s and stuff like that.

Another option would be the option of changing sets of bat/khash/energy for an algo with the click of a button. For example, I use an older version of CCminer for X11 mining when I use the rig, because it doesn't cause lag like the newest one does, which I use for when I don't use the computer.

Perhaps a easy way of using the overclock settings from nVidia Inspector, but those can be taken care of in bat-file, so it isn't necessary.

I built almost exactly this myself.

Nice. I am interested in how it will work out.


I can do that in Python no problem, will just take some time... to fiddle around a bit.  Think I have my new project to work on lol...as long as no one minds having python installed, but I can even convert it to an .exe, but people running unix/linux can still run the .py script.

Does anyone have a link to a profitability formula?

Think I'll start working on it, would be 2 weeks or so just because I have to work on weekdays unfortunately.

I remember seeing a formula on a blog somewhere, but I so far I haven't been able to track it down. I will try some other searches. Of course, this is assuming you mean profit calculations for things other than renting your rig. In the case of Nicehash, profit would be (BTC per GH per Day)*(GH rig = [Khash rig]/[10^6]) = BTC per day. From this you go to dollars, by multiplying it with the current BTC/dollar price. Now you have dollars per day. From this you detract the energy costs, calculable by taking the energy price per KWh, multiplying it with the KWh's your rig uses (E(kWh/day) = P(W) × t(h/day) / 1000(W/kW)). And now you have your profit from Nicehash.

hi   if a pool has its difficulty  to high will the -d 0.05 lower it and is that the correct command  thank you

-d is the device flag, so that wouldn't work. As for difficulty lowering, try that in your worker page of the pool, or, if you mine at nicehash, specify d=?Huh in the password.

Actually...i prefer ccminer v1.0 without the simd improvemend, when i'm sitting on my pc i want to be usable while i'm mining.


Just do what I do. Make one bat using the older version and run that when you're using the rig, and make another one, using the newest version, for when you are not. Then, just change between them when needed.
95  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN] cudaMiner & ccMiner CUDA based mining applications [Windows/Linux/MacOSX] on: May 28, 2014, 07:15:39 PM
ok as a generic question to everyone, nomad1109 has sent me 2 configs for his 750Tis, now would you rather see the average hashrate for each card/algo or would you like to see every card, as it is now

http://cudamining.cc/url/configurations

as you can see the 750Ti's show;

MSI 750ti 2GB Gaming TF
MSI 750ti 2GB OC

so do we want it like that or just show the average i receieve for the 750Ti's?

You should probably also average the clocks then, to keep it fair.
96  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN] cudaMiner & ccMiner CUDA based mining applications [Windows/Linux/MacOSX] on: May 27, 2014, 01:08:11 PM
Hi Experts,

I have cudaminer installed on my system. I was wondering if there is a switch that can be used in the configuration file to speed up my hashrate (Dismal 4.2 K/hs on a GT 210 card.). If there are any switches that i could use to speed up the hash rate, it would be much appreciated if you could post them as a reply to my post.

For your information this is the string i use currently: cudaminer.exe -C 1 -H 1 -i 0 -o stratum+tcp://multi.ghash.io:3333 -O zzzzzzz.zzzzz:x
 

Thanks and have a great day!
assuming you are running on scrypt   try "-l " that should trigger the autotune but frankly your card is from the neolithic...

Lol! Cheesy i suppose so, i somehow have an aversion to ATI (goes back a long way from my tech support days, frequent failures!) and Nvidia ain't up to scratch when it comes to mining (at least that's what i think!). Any good Nvidia cards that i could buy which may jack up my hash rate to something respectable? My Mobo supports PCI-E 3.0. Smiley

Thanks

Thanks to C&C, Nvidia now about rules X11 and related coins. As for the cards, 750ti's are popular, might want to try those. Or 780(ti)'s.

That looks good. Perhaps a little more green (because this is CUDA) in the overall theme of the site, by which I mean the parts other than the header.
98  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN] cudaMiner & ccMiner CUDA based mining applications [Windows/Linux/MacOSX] on: May 26, 2014, 08:11:38 PM
ive made a quick edit to the header of cudamining.cc, do we prefer that or the older one?

I am indifferent about it, I like them both.
99  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN] cudaMiner & ccMiner CUDA based mining applications [Windows/Linux/MacOSX] on: May 26, 2014, 02:54:31 PM
Thank you for this!  As long as it's updated fast enough, this is absolutely perfect. Who cares about how pretty it is (or isn't, haha)

thanks haha
well i intend to update is as fast as possible. The last release v1.02 was compiled by myself for all versions so anything that isn't officially released i can not guarantee will be on there, but i will try to compile every version i can

Bombadils CUDA 2.1 miner for X11 would also be nice to have on there
can you post the link for me to grab? i will just label it as compute 2.0

https://mega.co.nz/#!gBlGVZbT!0Pxo_T1P89UWmC866NVFIwEd3MJaAfRsdO8L5p4uvz0 Here you go
