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

hi

do functions like --gpu-clock=N still work for cards like 1080 ti?

thanks

For those who grasp CUDA programming.

This CUDA project is running 256 threads per block , right?

If they were just 1 thread per block, would the result of the computation still be correct?
So 256 is just for performance or is also a requirement for ccminer to correctly do its job?

Thanks

you posted this on more threads and even on github, is it really so important and urgent? :-)
there are many factors linked to TPB, not just performance.
besides, why would you ever run a single thread per block?

Hey, Creativereef17 you seem quite informed on this topic specially when it comes to mining with laptops, I wanted to make use of my Gpu maybe overclock it, but I was less concerned about what to mine, I was thinking about selling my power to nicehash pool and in return I could get some satoshis, I can run it full time 24/7 but nicehash miner and minergate and ccminer are all using my cpu, maybe I will mine blakecoin but I don't know about open cl yet, can you just point me to right direction how you get your gpu to mine, I think this NVS 3100m gpu is pain in the a**, thanks for reply anyways, you made my day, hope you'll reply again soon,

The first question is what OS is on the laptop?  If it is Windows then it is a little bit more complicated since I don't think that any of the binaries are still available for cudaminer which means that you will have to compile the source code from github.  I believe that cbuchner1 was using Visual Studio 2010 when cudaminer was being developed.  There is a article at http://cryptomining-blog.com/tag/compile-cudaminer-for-windows that may be of use.

If the laptop is using Linux than you might use this link.  https://github.com/cbuchner1/CudaMiner/wiki/Howto-Compile-cudaminer

I don't think that nicehash works on Cuda, just OpenCL so you will need to play with it to get it to work.  Using old equipment for mining means that you will have to learn and test many combinations until it works.

For the record, I don't have it all worked out either, AMD is clearly easier to work with but if you have a stack of Nvidia cards like I do then you try to make them work the best way that you can.

Good luck

I'm just a typical average windows user using windows 7 ultimate never used Mac let alone Linux you really are well informed, but I'm afraid I don't have time to create binaries myself, might give it a try though, do you mean you never got your NVS 3100m to mine on windows Imo open cl is Quite complicated or maybe I'm just a newbie, If there are some other workarounds or shortcuts plz let me know, I really want my laptop's GPU to mine, Thanx 4 reply again, btw your last reply is quite useful, much appreciated.

can some one help me out here? spent hours searching google and the forum search engines before reverting back here again thanks in advance...

I am trying to mine FTC but I am struggling to find and implement the change, I am currently mining with the zcash cuda miner( from this post) for

windows 64bit with my NVidia 1070 but I'm trying to swap to FTC.

anyone Know what I'm needing to do ? and can I use the cuda miner from this post ? if not what miner do I need .

anyone got the cuda miner download as it has expired from this post ?

Just updated Sniffdog. Link below

Yes...I downloaded it years ago.

Is there a guide on how to compile a miner based on cuda gpu's from 0? or based source cpu miner and adapt it to the gpu?  

I would like to try to implement some algorithms based on the architecture GPU's compute capability 1 to 1.3

but I do not know where to start...

Thanks  , I will ask. but I doubt that he receives any favorable answer

Hey.

I seem to be getting stratum authentication failed when I'm trying to mine with CCminer.
Can't figure out whats wrong.
What do you think can be causing the issue?

what video card do you use?

Hi any idea about mining on nvidia p1000 what will be optimized settings?

[FlyboyEda]

Hi, how do I set to bat file below that I want use only first two cards in my rig? I know the basic, but how it will looks like in this config file.

setx GPU_MAX_ALLOC_PERCENT 100

I wanted to start mining Dogecoin but the CUDAminer file isn't on MEGA anymore...is there a reason why? If no then, could someone re-up it?

This.

Someone fix link please.
