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

[sp_]

True, but sgminer have buildt in algorithm switcher. And new algorithms(coins) are normally implemented in this miner first. Slower but more compatible

 X11/x13/x14/x15/x17 etc.

Which exact version of sgminer do you review as latest , there are plenty of relieces in different versions...

Well, considering the speed penalty the new algorithm would have to be much more profitable than the existing ones to be worth while.  As for algorithm switching, there are options out there to handle it (such as the one linked in my signature).

Now, here is an idea.  It would be nice if sgminer could handle plugin CUDA modules the same way it handles OpenCL kernels.  That would give you a single launching platform for multiple technologies.

Best results with Sgminer 4.2(fixed) x15 version.(based on poolerinos 2% fee version)

I deleted the 750ti sgminerbinfiles  and installed catalyst 14.6 and got a boost

@cayars: I have been using nvminer since a day or so after you released it, and everything has been fine. However, yesterday, it suddenly started incorrectly reporting all my cards as GTX 660's (I have 2x EVGA GTX 660's and 2x EVGA GTX 750Ti's). It had been reporting correctly all the time before it started this. All of the other versions that I have (I have most of them) are still reporting correctly. Re-booting the system, and disabling/re-enabling the cards have had no effect on this behavior. Any ideas???

That is strange indeed.  My gut feeling is that it's a driver issue/glitch.

What does GPU-Z report as the card type?

Reporting correctly:

No idea without looking at code but I'd ask if you could try the version I put on cudamining.cc today.

Can someone compile the zelante splitscreen release for linux ?
it seems to be windows specific (windows.h) and I have no idea how to get it compiled on linux.
thanks


PS: or maybe make the source linux friendly ?

cudamining.cc is going to freak out for a while as i am doing a full framework re-design so it may not load at all while i test some new code

ok it's back to normal now

[tbearhere]

Seems like Ultracoin became Scrypt-Jane Nf(14). Anyone knows the optimal settings for N14 & 750ti?
Autotune gives me t64x1 @ 1kh, but I seriously think it can do more

I get 2.2kh/s for every each 750ti

What's your launch config?

cudaminer.exe -s 10 --algo=scrypt-jane:UTC -H 2 -i 0 -m 1 -l t64x1 -L 4 -b 16384

I don't think it profitable now. Only 0.6 USD estimate/24h

barabeku thanks for the launch config. I used this for CACH coin and got 4.5 kh/s then I put in -l T25x4 and crashed, changed it to -t25x4 and got 7.33kh/s wow. I didn't try it on UTC but you may get the same.

EDIT: per 750ti

[mmmaybe]

Excellent work with cudamining.cc, thanks alot!

Try -l t5x24 for CACH

What changes did you make?  Anything we can see on the front side?

BTW, maybe it's time to remove x13 from the FAQ page.

Cayars thanks a lot for the unified ccminer with all algos built in

Yeh i think so. We need something to stand in its place, any ideas?

And no changes you will see. The change was only moved over for about 3 minutes to test it worked. Once its done you will all most likely see faster loading times, and it will be much easier for me to edit the site.

Using one of my old complex methods right now. The changes require the entire website to be written from scratch. So to test it i have to put it live. So expect another website freakout at some point today

May get it done today, who knows

[vonuke]

which coin can we mine ccminer or cuda anybody help me minerals darkbitcoin keycoin???

How about a "Which miner should I use for which algorithm?" with a table/paragraph/infographic/etc showing cudaminer algos vs ccminer ones?  Folks that are new to the project (or cudaminer folks that are new to ccminer) might like a nice, central location to see that.  Could include links too.

Also, how about "How does this compare to sgminer?" or whatever current AMD miner is out there.

Same goes for "What increase in performance do we get over CPU mining?" for some of the CPU-minable algos (quark, x11/13/etc, cryptonite...)

--------------

On an unrelated note (well I guess it's related as it might somewhat answer one of the FAQs I suggested), are there currently any algorithms/coins that use the Bitcoin code base (rather than Cryptonite) that are still legitamately CPU & GPU minable?  I know Quark and X11/13 are okay on CPUs but not fantastic.  Are there any that are better?  Are any of the individual algorithms in Quark or X11 better for CPUs than others?

Or could BBR work as replacement of x13...? I think the miner will take some time to implement by C, while the BBR community are quite close to lose bittrex as their exchange and really wantto use their gpu´s to draw interest to the coin Coooooould lead to some frustration

I would find this useful info as i must admit I am struggling to keep up with all the different releases.    I have had my 4x750ti rig for a couple of months and am using ccminer v1.2. I am a linux user so cannot use the nvminer with all algos.

Do the 750ti's have an advantage with any algo over AMD anymore?
