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

[Amph]

Whoa, just noticed this. How do I get this to compile with DJM34 source code from Github? I'm compiling on Linux.

OR...

DJM34, do you have plans to add this speed increase to your github master?

just copy the pastebin into the doom.cu
and compile again

you need to add the unified qubit luffa and cuda luffa , called doom luffa

i just created a new filter as it is confusing right now...

I would change it to doom in ccminer, but that would confuse even more people  
(I will update my github soon... right now my version is still using qubit hack...)

yeah i named the folder doom and put in doom_luffa512 and doom.cu., leave qubit alone, poor guy

I will do that in time... 
I have updated my repository with the "improved" code...  That doesn't fix the duplicate share problem though...

OK, massive difference with that new code. Now getting 360 Mh/s.

Thanks for the info, guys.

Has anyone managed to compile the QT wallet for Doom on Linux? I'm getting an error with that ...

Thanks, it compiled for longer but threw up a new error :

anybody able to do doom with 3788 drivers on windows 8.1 ? i cant, but new drivers will but all my old bat file ccminer  cuda wont work with that. 

[S_tring]

Find find -lboost_thread_win32 in quid-qt.pro and remove "_win32".

Worked a treat, thanks!

BTW, that Doomcoin logo looks a lot like the Parallax logo...

Take a look at this:

#define MULT2(a,j)\
    tmp = a[7+(8*j)];\
    a[7+(8*j)] = a[6+(8*j)];\
    a[6+(8*j)] = a[5+(8*j)];\
    a[5+(8*j)] = a[4+(8*j)];\
    a[4+(8*j)] = a[3+(8*j)] ^ tmp;\   (work is done)
    a[3+(8*j)] = a[2+(8*j)] ^ tmp;\   (work is done)
    a[2+(8*j)] = a[1+(8*j)];\
    a[1+(8*j)] = a[0+(8*j)] ^ tmp;\   (work is done)
    a[0+(8*j)] = tmp;

3 out of 9 lines of code is doing work.

The luffa implementation is moving 32bit words around in the cache. Instead of moving the memory, scramble the memory.
Create an index with a modulo for every write. Rewrite the loop to use 64bit registers .
The modulo can be created with an andmask. since the border of each block is on 2^n boundaries.

3-4 times the speed.

wow sp_ , u always came out with at least +100% speed coding suggestion. Hope to see x11 +100% hashrate soon.

v1.2.7 "Split Screen ccMiner" (2014-07-30) Source + Windows Binary release

Add key --height Set height of terminal window. Usage: --height=xx (where xx >= 30)
Height of top section of split screen depends on count of cuda device or choosed by -d key.
Some fixes for output info string

Good to have an update.

I have noticed though that with your split screen version (previous ones, not this one) my rig crashes 1 out of 3 times when I launch ccminer.

[sparks2013]

Hmmm.. Perhaps there is something I have missed a few posts back, but I am unable to get the latest nvminer working with DOOM.

The error I keep receiving is Unable to query number of CUDA devices! Is an nVidia driver installed?.  Please note that I have the CUDA 6 toolkit installed, and ccminer on cryptonight works flawlessly.

I'm also on drivers 337.88.

in red your problem

If you not compile from source then you don't need to install cuda toolkit. Just update your nvidia driver to version 340.xx

in qubit/qubit_luffa512.cu

right, there are defined in stdint.h (my computer doesn't complain about that though).
just remove the 3 lines:
typedef unsigned char uint8_t;
typedef unsigned int uint32_t;
typedef unsigned long long uint64_t;

btw you really don't want to do:  

typedef unsigned long  uint64_t; (however it depends of the system)

edit: please don't suggest random changes
(although, it doesn't matter as this algo doesn't use uint64_t type)

why not testing your suggestion ? It is only one algo to change.

i dont have any tool kits installed that i know of. and the lastest driver will let doom work, but no other cuda miners will work and i get the same error .  how and where do i install cuda tool kit please? been running cuda miners for a long time.  thz

Do a clean install of the latest beta driver (as the latest whql seems to have a problem (?)).
I use win 8.1, I have absolutely no problem.

i loaded new drivers and doom works but no other miners ...i had to roll back i cant do doom
