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

You can also prepare the ultracoin.conf.

I seriously doubt mining ultracoin using cudaminer with nFactor 4,5,6 will be efficient   At nFactor 7 you can expect 2 MHash from a GTX 780Ti.

about ultracoin startup
saw this in the thread

use --scrypt-jane --sj-time 1387769316 --sj-nfmin 4 --sj-nfmax 30

[bathrobehero]

I saw 1388361600, but if either is true, it will start at N 9

I also saw this value in the bat file of the ultracoin miner (not sure to understand why they are making an ultracoin miner if it is just a copycat of cgminer...)

At least if it N=9, I won't have to run the autotune

does not make sense to put the chain start time at Dec 30th 2013: http://www.convert-unix-time.com/?t=1388361600 unless the dev has created the genesis block way back then

They did the inverse of what MRC dev did. They released first their web page then the coin

Sorry for the offtopic, I understand that this about the miner, but this ends up being the "go to" thread for who is interested in mining with Nvidia. There's a thread elsewhere that proves ATI cards are affected by vram latency and someone offers to optimize their bios. I wonder what kind of performance would one get if Nvidia cards had such firmware optimization. Is there any software that allows one to experiment with memory tweaking or allows bios modding currently? I remember about Nibitor from the 8800gt days...

I'd like to see an answer to this, please. Or where can I discuss Nvidia mining when it doesn't relate directly to cudaMiner?

Guess when was the first post of one of the devs, (Bumface) in the newbie section?

Yep, December 30, 2013.

there are BIOS mods for GTX 780 (Ti) but mostly related to TDP and voltage limits. There is also an editor for kepler card BIOSes but the new 7xx GPU series BIOS is pretty locked down so trying this tool on them might brick your cards. It will work on the 6xx series of cards.

the nVidia cards tend to be limited by their compute resources when mining, not so much by their memory access. By underclocking your memory you don't significantly lose performance with cudaminer.

KeplerBiosTweaker version 1.26 (I am not entirely sure this was your question though...)

How are my GTX 780s I doing against GTX 780 Ti's?

[ManIkWeet]

How am I doing against you GTX 780 Ti's?

The hashrate isn't superior, my GTX 780 (not TI) gets 560khash/s, but I am yealous of that water cooling 

[cbuchner1]

for UltraCoin, use  --algo=scrypt-jane:UTC   in the latest github

their wallet and everything can be found here: http://www.ultracoin.net/

I've already solo'ed my first 100 UTC. And they mature quickly. Quicker than any other coin I've mined so far.

I'm patiently waiting for the new revision of cudaminer coming out either today or tomorrow. Hopefully I'll be pushing 700kh/s on my cards after the updates.

[djm34]

got one booooo so far....

[cbuchner1]

got one booooo so far....

maybe setting a short scantime  (-s option) of  3 or 5 seconds might lower the chance of boo's.

I may have to try ultracoin later. Microcoin solo mining is hard

With the new version of Cudaminer you should be able to hit 700,
My overclock is at 1268Mhz on Air and with cudaminer.exe -d 0 -H 2 -C 0 -m 1 -l Z12x24 I am hitting 680Kh/s

What's the full code, i get this?
cudaminer --algo=scrypt-jane:UTC -l K7x32 -C 1 -i 1 -m 0 -o stratum+tcp://pickaxe.pool.pm:3306 -u XXXX -p X
 
Something is still wrong
