https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=4978579.0 has a miner that is not limited by the DAG size. It uses paging to the system memory from the GPU RAM to get around the issues. I've run it without issues. Performance is slightly degraded due to the hit to get to system memory but it is only 5% slower than what it used to be.
1. This mining tool is a scam/virus.
2. Now the DAG file for Ethereum is 2.66 GB you have another 6 months for mining with those cards if you install Windows 7 or ethos or any other linux based mining software. After that period you can move to Ubiq or other coin
It is going to take a while to convince people that TerraCotta is not a virus. If people have gone through the pain of reverting to Windows 7 from Win 10, just try mining on a fresh Win 10 install on a with new wallet and new everything else. You will see that there this is not a virus. And you can continue mining ether for a long as it makes sense without worrying about DAG size.
Dude, you registered 1 day ago and have 2 posts - both of which are promoting TerraCotta. You also have the same local time zone as TerraCotta poster. Do I really need to call in the mods to ban your ass with this shill account.
IT'S A VIRUS!
Yes, I am in the same timezone and work for the same company as the TerraCotta poster.
From your perspective it makes sense to assume I'm promoting a virus. All I'm asking is you take necessary precautions and try the program out in an safe controlled environment where you have no risk of data loss. Try it in a DMZ, firewall the GPU server, physical isolation from the rest of your infrastucture, etc. whatever you need to feel safe. The TerraCotta miner was designed to support DAG sizes exceeding GPU RAM. The 1060GPU is best platform to show this on. It will take time to change perspectives and I don't expect everyone to trust an unknown software overnight.
