[ANN] cudaMiner & ccMiner CUDA based mining applications [Windows/Linux/MacOSX]

[bigjme]

Under Windows, building it for the correct compute capability for your cards would be advised.

It can be changed when you change the project-wide CUDA options (right click in the project explorer on the ccminer project)

The Linux makefile builds for all supported platforms automatically.

i compiled it as is, and got 2.6MHs so lost 600KHs
will try it with 3.5 now

edit: in the options for x64 release it is already at this
Code Generation: compute_35,sm_35

so i take it its already running compute 3.5, if so i lost 600KHs in this one

same result... check on 660ti and 750ti -600Kh/s =(

An Asus 660Ti DirectCU II, run with -a groestl on dwarfpool, using the code just uploaded to github, essentially.
I tested on a 32 bit Ubuntu 9.04 version (so the whole thing is a 32 bit build)

I can't test my 750Ti rigs right now but some reports for other cards:
GTX780 from 6Mhs -> 8Mhs
GTX680 from 4Mhs -> 5.8Mhs
GTX580 down from 6Mhs -> 2.5Mhs

Gute Nacht, Christian . Danke fuer deine grossartige Arbeit.

[cbuchner1]

So try it 32bit christian? Not 64 bit?

yes, and one more thing. I use CUDA 5.5 not 6.0.

[cbuchner1]

GTX580 down from 6Mhs -> 2.5Mhs

oops

[bigjme]

I will compile 32bit in a bit. Im using cuda 5.5 aswell

EDIT

32 bit results - computer 3.5, cuda 5.5, gtx 750TI - 2600khash/s
so still a drop of 600khash/s overall

same performance for 32bit and 64 bit releases

[zelante]

OMG  


660ti + 2x750ti
cuda 6.0

this is fake numbers?? i think something wrong with compile with cuda 6.0...

[cbuchner1]

your Compute 3.0 card barfs on a Compute 3.5 binary.

Your cudaminer crashed. Restart your computer eventually.

Steve would say "you're holding it wrong"...

No, really I've got no idea.  Maybe the change only helps Compute 3.0 and 3.5 cards...

Got to wait for bitsliced Groestl for some real magic.

[bigjme]

You have no idea? Well if you dont then i sure don't.
I want to learn how to do The algorithms so i can help figure this out. Which file is it i need to read through to understand how it does groesl?

Edit

Ooo hell the code for groestl looks easy  
Coming back to the real world, where i have limited knowledge, im unsure why its dropped. What exactly did you change? A variable array to a table array?

Is it worth me trying to run it under compute 3.0 or even compute 5.0?
I believe the 750ti is compute 5.0

Edit 2

got bored so here is testing for different compute versions on my 750Ti, all 32bit

old - 3221
3.0 - 2600
3.5 - 2600
5.0 - 2600

[djm34]

could be the shared memory feature in the cuda file.
I know (in the previous version) when it was used, I had something like 2 more MH/s, however it was very unstable for my card.

[DrAlco]

Quick test and I'm up from ~17Mhash/s to ~20Mhash/s for two 780ti cards (x64 version-cuda 5.5) mining GRS at dwarfpool with the latest snapshot.

I downloaded the latest version and Avast detects cudaminer.exe as having win32:Malware-gen in it.

OP has some explaining to do... Why does a miner need a trojan attached to it???

"Win32 Malware gen is a malicious computer virus. It can cause system instability. It can come with a bundle of adware and malware. It can also disable antivirus security features."

Most if not ALL antivirus / antimalware suites will detect miners as a virus.  I had to create some exceptions using avast.

[gpuminer]

Is palit gtx 750ti stormx oc a good card ?

[antonio8]

Stupid question but does anyone have a link to download the groestel? I should have book marked the depot.
