GeForce GT620: ~19.90 khash/s   (cudaminer-2013-12-01 K42x6)

Here's the most power efficient low-end miner I know about:

The newer GT640 models with GDDR5 memory can do 70-72 kHash/s when overclocked.  Its TDP is 49 Watts.
That's around 1.5 kHash per Watt then.

as the amazon reviews state, this is the new model with the GK208 Kepler chip. So yeah that will output 70 kHash/s.

Currently getting 497 kHash/s out of my GTX 780Ti. Some more optimization made it possible (and some overclocking).

I will commence building a Megahash mining rig with 2 GTX 780Ti soon, maybe adding a third one later. The parts are currently being shipped.

(I have other uses for the selected mainboard and the 780Ti cards, should scrypt based mining become unprofitable in the future).

That is odd..works fine for me on that pool   did you try -O   Address:x  instead?

I've done a bit of reading on cuda/fermi and bank conflicts. Done a bit of experimentation. I found that the reason i was getting higher performance from my 64 bit builds was due to the extra byte memory alignment offset for 64 bit in the fermi kernel. I found that adding the same offset to the 32 bit kernel brought it up to speed with the 64 bit one. Some reading suggested that 36 byte alignments were optimal for avoiding bank conflicts. I have managed to get up to 234khash/s in linux. I have tested it on a fresh linux install with cuda 5.0 and confirmed that it's not just a quirk with my 5.5 windows setup.

Christian, you say you get 228 on your 560 ti 448 in 32 bit. I only get about 222 with 32 bit in windows or linux but this has pushed it to ~234. I could see yours doing 240 providing mine isn't somehow retarded and i found a way to work around it's retardedness.

Easy way to test,

#define _64BIT_ALIGN 3

whether it be for 64 or 32 bit. can easily be set back to 0 or 1 after if it doesn't really do anything.

This would be thread number 4 I`ve asked about this but cudaminer.

Never used it to solo mine before but I didn`t think it`d be difficult

Getting errors json_rpc_call failed

HTTP request failed: Failed to connect to 127.0.0.1:9332; No error.


Yeah right no error, that`s why its not mining.

the conf files rpcuser and pass are usually just one and it used to not matter what i use as the -u blah -p x

so Idk

cudaminer.exe -o localhost:9322 -u blah -p 1

[Masaca]

What settings do you guys use for a 660 Ti (Asus OC)? I use: -l 70x2 -m 1 -C 2 but only 150kH/s.

Code:

cudaminer.exe -H 1 -i 0 -C 1 -D -l K14x16 -o stratum+tcp://coinotron.com:3334 -O cbuchner1.1:x

with some extra OC I get 210 kHash/s. Asus DirectCU II OC

I am at 105 % TDP limitation, +100 MHz GPU Clock Offset, +300 MHz Mem Clock Offset.
I use EVGA PrecisionX to overclock.

I think you have to add a --no-stratum flag to cudaminer. The next versions will automatically treat http:// and https:// URLs as non-stratum. Any objections?

Also pass the -server flag to litecoin-qt or whatevercoin-qt when you start it (e.g. by editing the Windows shortcut accordingly).

never needed the flags for solo mining. I would suggest their conf file for the qt is not setup correctly.


What coin are you trying to mine? what is your conf file like?

[fruittool]

For solo mining,

my coind command: -server -rpcuser=aaa -rpcpassword=123456 -rpcport=8100

my cudaminer command: -o http://127.0.0.1:8100 -O aaa:123456 -C 1 -i 0 -H 1 -l F14x16

my cudaminer command: -o http://127.0.0.1:8100 -O aaa:123456 -C 1 -i 0 -H 1 -l F14x16

This is what I usually have...

listen=1
daemon=1
server=1
rpcuser=User

rpcallowip=all
rpcport=7785
