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

[Hampuz]

I will mine Maxcoin when its launched, I have a gtx 770.  If anyone here helps me out when I can use this on windows, ill give you 10% of all the Maxcoins I get for one week.

Pm me

bumpedibump

Just wait till 7:00 UTC

Everything will be released here? Guides etc?

[CrystalCoin]

Wait I'm confused, since the 780 is a compute 3.5 chip, does that mean it won't work?

Just the miner, no guides. my advise would be to read this thread first.

Does it makes sense to mine on GT 635M?
And what settings should be used?
Thanks.

Ima go ahead and bump this ^

[cbuchner1]

the github code now has versions of keccak specifically compiled for compute_30 and compute_35.
Compilation tested only on Linux so far.

Select the K and T kernels respectively (Fermi and legacy users want to use the F kernel).

The T kernel will work until x24, the K kernel until x32. This is unchanged from scrypt and scrypt-jane.

Report the GTX 780, Titan and 780 TI speeds please.

as always, don't autotune (it doesn't work for keccak yet). Use a high -L in the order of 64 or 128 and use large number of blocks in the launch config (best a high multiple of your SMX count)

Hi guys, new here! I've manage to get things working. but the only problem is how do I specify 1 to 3 cards in the command line. So I have 2 gtx 680 and 1 gtx 660. If I need 1 gtx680 and 1 gtx660 to run what should I input? I currently have mine set up as this

Code:

cudaminer -d gtx680 -l K12x32 -C 1 -m 1 -i 0 -H 1 -o stratum+tcp://coinotron.com:3334 -O user.1:1

If i'm missing anything else important please let me know. Any help would be really appreciated. Thanks!

which do you want testing?
K192x32 and T192x24?

[cbuchner1]

for example, or go even higher with the 192. like 1024.

either run multiple cudaminers, one per card

or give the arguments for -d, -K, -C, -m, -i as comma separated lists (no spaces inbetween).

-d gtx680,gtx680#2,gtx660

if you specify only -C 1, it means all 3 cards will run on the 1 dimensional texture cache.
use e.g. -C 1,0,1 to give per-card settings.

Time to stop lurking. Firstly tip of my hat to cbuchner1 for his work here.
Enabling us nvidia owners to venture into amd turf.

Now to the point

run cudaminer with the --debug (-D) option and watch if you get this:

Code:

[2014-02-06 15:57:01] DEBUG: hash <= target
Hash:   0000000d72a9d97d68d1e2ddb20809b4ad4623b895f0dfde715cd82b4e54d606
Target: 0000000f00000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000

Just to clarify getting the above is a good thing or a bad thing?

I've compiled the 164 release. Tried all the configs posted in the previous 6-7 pages on my GTX780.
Best one is:
cudaminer.exe --algo=keccak -L 128 -l K1000x32 --benchmark -i 0 -H 2 -m 1
overcklocked gives me 140-145 MH/s

Is it worth purchasing a gtx 760 (3.0 compute)

I find it worthwhile for Yacoin (high N-factor scrypt) mining - not so much for scrypt.

GTX 660Tis are a little faster (one extra SMX) and cheaper as the GTX 760 replaces the 660Tis.
The 760's can have up to 4 Gigs of RAM though (better for high N-factor scrypt).

guys I have 2* GTS 450 fermi, will I be able to mine maxcoin with these and cuda miner?

[cbuchner1]

[2014-02-06 15:57:01] DEBUG: hash <= target

that means that your hashes are OK and getting validated.

But please comment out that FOR TESTING ONLY line again, or you can't mine successfully
with this program (it would use the wrong difficulty target all the time)

I'm thinking for Maxcoin sha3

[CrystalCoin]

Just wondering, when maxcoin comes out do you think it'll be worth it to solo mine with my 780?

Also noob question...

How would I go about solo mining with cudaminer?

here we go
./cudaminer --algo=keccak -d gtx780 -L 92 -l T192x24 --benchmark
132Mhash/s

./cudaminer --algo=keccak -d gtx780 -L 128 -l T1000x24 --benchmark
137Mhash/s

./cudaminer --algo=keccak -d gtx780 -L 92 -l K192x32 --benchmark

./cudaminer --algo=keccak -d gtx780 -L 128 -l K1000x32 --benchmark

also interested in solo mining with cuda

the era of nividia has come will be donating.

I think I've set up my GTX 660 TI correctly, but since you own a 660ti too, I'd like to know what values you have, and if my batch files work correctly.

As i'm not able to compile the latest release right now, i can't test things.
For solomining i have setup a config file for maxcoin in my appdata. Username x and password x

Does this line look correctly to you?

cudaminer --algo=keccak -L 64 -l K1024x32 -D -o 127.0.0.1:8332 -u x -p x

And when i'll benchmark it with -D Should I also see  those hashes?

cudaminer --algo=keccak -L 64 -l K1024x32 --benchmark -D

Thanks for your time Christian for making this all.
