8x60 gives me 261h/s per 750 ti....EVGA SC.
Was 240-243h/s
Thanks!

ivan, how many coins(monero) can I espect from a 750Ti ?

Thanks for the reply!
Thats cinda low on profit..
Anything worth mining now?

Nothing is worth mining now...AND everything is worth mining now. 

Just pick some coins with cold algo and low diff and mine.  I'm currently mining XGR(X11) and MAMM(X13). Also Kryptonite(x11) is super low diff, will keep an eye on that one too.

@Christian: A while back, you were making too much profit, so could not share your optimized cryptonight code. Then recently, you were struggling to make a profit as diff has gone up and the price on exchanges has not increased to match. How's your sharing mood now? 

well sharing would kill the last tiny bit of profit we're making now

Aaand I'm back. Had to focus a bit on shit I've been neglecting lately, including but not limited to my actual job and sleep  

Say bye to (most of) the lag on Windows if you're willing to take a slight hit in performance. Basically I'm now splitting the heaviest part of the Cryptonight core into smaller batches with a little sleep between launching the batches. The default is still no splitting and no sleeping on Linux, on Windows it gets split into 64 batches with 100 microseconds sleep between the batches. Both values can be set on the command line per-device. I'm running it as I type this and while there is still noticeable lag, it's not too bad. The performance hit is pretty negligible on the defaults, something like 5 H/s. Well, on my system anyway.

Latest win32 binary at https://github.com/tsiv/ccminer-cryptonight/releases/tag/v0.14 and source at https://github.com/tsiv/ccminer-cryptonight as you might expect.

this commit broke mining under linux giving lot of:

Code:

GPU #0: result for nonce $00000069 does not validate on CPU!

reversing the commit and building again fixed it.

Make sure to do a clean build, I had a lot of that when I was just rebuilding parts while working on it. Just did a clean build and confirmed it works.

ok, it works with a clean build, thank you.

I tested the current cryptonight build, and so far, it's working good (1290H/s for 5x750Ti). But the pool I'm mining at, sets diff to 100k, which means that sometimes I submit shares only every 3mins, and in the meantime new blocks are detected. While I'm not sure if this changes the outcome, what are your experiences? would it be better to have a lower diff to be able to submit shares more frequently?

Anyone know how to solomine monero? I can't seem to set username/password for the wallet.

[dav1199]

Hey guys , question here , i have both 750ti and non ti , and i can't seem to find any good settings for scrypt-n mining on the non ti one.
Anyone have any idea what settings would look like knowing they have 1gb of ram and only 512 ccores instead of the 640 of the Ti..
4x24 work for normal scrypt , but n-scrypt just crash all the time..
Any help appreciated thanks!

With ccminer, you'll need to setup a private pool for solo mining monero.
Unless you have some pretty massive hashrate, you're really much better off just joining one of the small'ish pools.
One that I have found to have good performance and generally reliable is http://monero.crypto-pool.fr/

EDIT: This reminder is never enough I suppose: Do not mine monero to an exchange address, or you might as well say bye bye to your mining proceeds!
Cheers,

Attached is nvMiner or otherwise known as ccminer 1.2U-C (U=unified)

Incorporates tsiv's latest modifications to CryptoNight.

Set CryptoNight defaults to 8x60
Added TdrDelaySetTo40.reg display reg fix to zip file in case anyone needs it.
Added donation address.

Have fun,

PS looking into possibly merging algos from CudaMiner into nvMiner.

How work -f parameter for cryptonight algorithm? Can i do difficulty stable for example 8000? Difficulty increase up to 100000 but this to much for 3x750Ti. I change ports on pool for diff reduction, but diff always jump up to 100000

[bestsponsor]

100000 this is normal

[ManiacMiner]

100000 this is normal

For 3x750Ti normal? One share about 4-5 min, not think that it good...

[cayars]

Try a different pool.

Carlo, thank you again! ...also is there a way to incorporate the split screen mod for the display

Hi, can you share your launch config and oc setting to get 280-290 on 750ti?  thx

Carlo, good work on nVminer. Got any word on the multialgo pool thing you were talking about?

If we do it will become a windows only version.

Let me see what I can do with integrating scrypt, scrypt-jane, sha256d, keccak & blake256 (CudaMiner) algos into nvMiner first.
This is a real pain in the ass! Which is probably why it hasn't been done yet.

I may also want to add some API stuff first before the split screen.

Then it could be forked and made split-screen.

Yea, it's still in progress and is being tested in parts by a couple of different people. I had a lot of stuff happen at work this past week which hasn't left me much free time to work on it  I wanted to take a small break from it (as a detour) to tackle a unified miner which I think will be of more help to people right now.

One of the things I've always liked about nVidia compared to AMD mining is that on the AMD side you need a bunch of different miners.

With nVidia up until recently you just needed CudaMiner and/or ccminer.  With releases from djm and tsiv we would now have 4 different miners to keep track of.  I wanted to simply it as much as possible to get back to "roots" with only one or two miners.  Hopefully with any luck I can get it all into one exe.  The biggest challenge right now is the long compile times between code changes.  I'm pushing 4 hours on the compile it's doing right now.

I'm doing a bunch of stuff around the house so I make some code changes, do a compile, do other stuff... repeat...
