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

[Travis9x]

I must admit I never heard of miner control before so I can't really be of any help (just read  a few message on their thread where they tell "us"  to put our shit together (to summarize... ) may-be they should first explain what they want to do with others application rather than complaining... (especially when they never put any message here to describe what they intended to do  )

Not sure where you're getting the idea that the MinerControl thread just complains about ccMiner.  Aside from a single comment about the GIThub repository, almost all comments in that thread about ccMiner (and everyone involved in it) have been praise, and encouraging donations.  Also, I believe the creator did indeed announce in this thread what he was making, and what it was supposed to do, when he released the very first alpha version of it (started out called "NiceHash Control").
In short, Miner Control allows people to use ccMiner (or nvMiner, or any other derivative) to automatically switch pools & algorithms, based on profitability.  It was initially built specifically for ccMiner and NVIDIA GPU's, because there was not yet any support for such auto-switching with NVIDIA GPU's, and at first only supported NiceHash (now supports several pools, and can be used with other mining apps).  It simply checks various pool API's, and starts the miner (ccMiner, or whatever mining app the user wishes) pointed at the most profitable pool/algorithm.  It continues to check API's, and if another pool/algorithm becomes more profitable than the one currently being mined, then it will shut down the current miner, and start it again pointed at the new pool/algorithm.

djm, your reply on the Miner Control thread was a little brusque, and being that I doubt you are following that thread I'll reply over here.

I haven't been following the ccminer thread too closely the last couple of months but for a while I did see that several people were working independently on ccminer (doing great things) and a couple of people were then trying to merge together the best of each work into a unified product.  A little haphazard but it was still making progress.  That was the source of my musing that a single github repository would be a nice baseline for continuing to improve ccminer being that cbuchner has moved on to other things.  If your branch is now the most complete then hopefully others will submit pull requests to you rather than forking and releasing even more variants.  I'll probably try switching over to it myself soon as the latest version of nvminer I'm using is experiencing occasional crashes that I wasn't seeing before.

As for kalen37, a couple of us here over there directed him towards the ccminer thread being that the problem he is experiencing appears to be ccminer related and nothing to do with Miner Control.  I had him try launching ccminer from a batch file a few days ago to get Miner Control completely out of the equation and he still had the same problem with it not starting up correctly.  At that point it became apparent he would likely get better help on the ccminer thread.

Miner Control is generic and not dependent on ccminer or any other specific miner program.  It is just a tool to launch whichever miner someone chooses to configure under it.  The releases don't even have a real miner bundled in, just a fake one used to demonstrate how to configure the program.

Good luck with your continuing work on ccminer.

really cant undestand about miner machine
im a gambler but sometime wanna try to mining some coin

put everything on the green miner go for gtx980

Then this is the right time for you to join as GPU mining is slowly becoming gambling and the rake is the electricity bill.

any new ccminers?
I'm getting 6200 kh/s on a gtx 970 over clocked (X11)
u guys?

ccMiner is not optimized for the 900-series yet.
They're working on it.

wow not optomized but im still seeing good numbers. Who exactly is working on it, so I can follow them for updates
Thanks

I think their all working on parts. Wolf is working on AMD at the moment I believe? Optimizations can be a pain. So be patient and numbers will rise gradually

Yeah, 6100kh/s out of 280X now... almost got it on par with the 970

Wolfo  thats great, at how many watts ?

with double the wattage  , and 970 is not fully optimized

AMD? Isnt ccminer nvidia ? lol

Yeah, Wolf has a theory that AMD isn't actually as bad (power-efficiency-wise) compared to NVIDIA as we think.

My modded ccminer does around 3mhash with oclock on x11 750ti and pulling 38 watt at the wall.
Bmw(x2) is done. I managed to make it 60% faster..

Might release the sourcecode when i am done.

this mean that theoretically a 970 can do 8m with 100w 

[ltcnim]

hmm..I currently have a problem with one (?) of my 750Ti. nvidia-smi is reporting "ERROR: GPU is lost" but it looks like it's still hashing. This happened a few times over the last weeks, sometimes it works after a reboot for another week, sometimes only a few hours. I'm also not 100% sure if it's always the same card (I will keep track of that from now on).

Does that mean one of my cards is dying, or is there another problem?

edit: from dmesg:

Code:

[14922.167340] NVRM: GPU at 0000:01:00.0 has fallen off the bus.

Does the proxy feature of cudaminer ( -x, --proxy=[PROTOCOL://]HOST[:PORT]  connect through a proxy) work? If so, how? Whatever I try to use it connects without the proxy.

I need betatesters. The 3MHASH 750TI miner can be yours for a nice donation. PM for details.

[go6ooo1212]

750Ti is verry good piece of Nvidia , but now I think we need optimisation on 900-series...

Lol. Any optimization on the 750ti will also lead in a bonus for the 900s

Performance increase is expected in x11,x13,x15,x14,x17,nist. I will work som more on it and send out exefiles(windows executables) on Saturday. If you have compute 5.0 card

Compute 5.0 or bether:

GeForce GTX 980
GeForce GTX 970
GeForce GTX 750 Ti   
GeForce GTX 750
GeForce GTX 850M
GeForce 840M
GeForce 830M
GeForce GTX 980M
GeForce GTX 970M
