Open Source ZEC (ZCash) GPU Miner AMD & NVidia (up to 45 sol/s on RX480)

[loremipsum]

Oops, https://github.com/mbevand/silentarmy

45.7 Sol/s with one R9 Nano
39.6 Sol/s with one RX 480

And good news, this miner does not have my last optimization, I begin merge to produce a 50+ sols/s miner, wait a hours...
thanks to qwep1

wow    the competition is really on now
I think I will buy one or two cards

Thats great news, eXtremal
Maybe you put up a donation adress?
If I can use your miner I will surely donate.
Stratum support would be nice too

I removed kernel.bin and restarted and got the same problem. What should I do?

Anyone tested a R7 370 on Linux yet?

Would be interested, my R7 370 miner doesn't work so well for ETH in this times, maybe zcash is an option.

dude, what are you lol.

You are the man.

Will this be available for windows too?

This is more related to the nicehash Cuda miner, but I thought I'd put the question /concern out there. Haven't tried it with this miner, but I'm guessing the results could be similar because this one had issues with cpu usage. 

any reason gpu mining speeds would be affected by the processor type / speed/ddr memory ? noticed im getging 18 sols/s on celeron with gtx1070 vs 27 on the same card and i7. i thought all the gpu processing should occur on gpu,so cpu should not matter. not even seeing any load on the cpu.

So people mining zcash before launch? how is that possible?

Error compiling program for digitH.
Frontend phase failed compilation.

Is there any way to correct the problem?

Thanks!!

Having the same issue with a Radeon 6950. Running Windows 8.1., 64. Any thoughts or suggestions as to what to do?

So people mining zcash before launch? how is that possible?

They are all testing their miners on the testnet.

And good news, this miner does not have my last optimization, I begin merge to produce a 50+ sols/s miner, wait a hours...
thanks to qwep1

Awesome! Going to try that on testnet with my RX 480's... Nice work! I'll post my results here as well with OC and with stock.

How many watts do your 480's use?

thanks

I get the following msg while strating the gpu miner : opencl error -42 at /build/xpmclient/src/opencl.ccp

[tomothy]

Simpler question, can this run with a 3gb gpu card?

[mattnook]

Hi, I plan to mine on Windows.

I understand the only way to generate a z-addr is through linux.

If I create a real z-addr on my Ubuntu VM, will I be able to use that same address in my .bat file for Windows mining?

Sure, payouts will go to that address though, so you will need to have access to that wallet to get your tokens.

Hi, Inan!
I have 2 questions:
1. When will the new release?
2. Is your branch of the miner for the Russian-speaking community on the Bits.media forum?

Good luck!

[Biodom]

Couple of questions:

1. I see that this is optimized for Ubuntu 16.04 with current amdgpupro driver. Will it work on 14.04 with amdgpu? I can update to 16.04, of course.
2. does it reliably work on multiple GPUs?
3. can anybody post sols of a rig of six RX 470 if it does, or is it better to run simply on good CPU, like i7 or FX?

1. i dont know
2. yes
3. 19sol per card for rx 470 8gb (sapphire) with mod bios.

Ok, so what is the best GPU miner to be using as of this morning lol (for windows)

I've been so busy with other things I am loosing track here

I am still using this threads miner ZC1.1 atm.

Nobody knows yet
at the moment this is the best miner, but things are changing rapidly.
