Anyone else still solo mining ?

I have 3x GTX 780 going at it solo and still found 2 blocks today, even with the big difficulty spikes.  Solo mining still seems way more profitable with the odd block a day giving 96 coins vs what you'd get at a pool.

I have to restart my cudaminer once every minute because of massive amounts of boo's, but so far I've gotten 4MaxCoins from poolmining in like an hour... that's with 1x 780Ti. Wish this damn stratum crap would go away so I don't have to monitor my miner...

How do you solo mine? command string example?

This is how I start my miners.  Change -d 0 to -d 1 or -d2 for each GPU and launch a new instance of cudaminer

cudaminer --algo=keccak -o http://localhost:8108 -O name:pass -d 1 -L 128 -l K1024x32 -i 0 -C 2 -H 2

Anyone got something working for a 280GTX?

You downloaded the 2-7 version right? There was an issue with the stratum. As long as you've done that, there's no need to restart your miner. the boooos will clear themselves when the stratum picks back up, restarting probably won't save you that much.

What's the best pool to mine at right now? I'm throwing 700 some mh/s at 1GH and it's going fine but I'm getting about 25% rejects. Are other smaller pools more reliable in rejects but still large enough to pay out a regular payout?

Mining on 1GH with 95% success rate right now, your config is overdosed somewhere, that's the main reason of your 25% boooos...

You could use --time-limit and a bat which starts itself.

yup got the latest version.. running on windows with 780Ti, this is my batch:
cudaminer.exe --algo=keccak -o stratum+tcp://151.236.222.216:3333 -O USER:PASS -L 128 -l K1020x32 -i 0 -C 2 -m 1 -H 1

[coercion]

My 660 and my 640s all have 95% acceptance rate or better, but I've tried a hundred different configs on my 780 and it always settles around 75%.

yeah... didn't work... or it does... you have to put maxcoind -server right? before launching?

does it keep hashing till it finds something? like no other confirmations?

Can you post your config please?  I am getting 80% on max.1gh.com

WHATS THE best CONFIG FOR MAXCOIN 660TI WITH 3GB? And also best pool atm?

WHY DONT YOU figure IT OUT YOURSELF BECAUSE NOONE KNOWS?

[beachking2000]

Trial and error it is!

[apluscarp]

what command do i use to launch minecoind.exe for solo mining?

[Omnilink]

Thanks for the work here !!

But i have a question, with my 780Ti Windforce OC with

Code:

cudaminer.exe --algo=keccak -i 0 -m 1 -L 128 -l K1024x32

I have 215 MH/s is it the best hashrate ?

Cheers

[ithd]

anyone notice that the cudaminer slows down eventually? like maybe after 500+ shares, and then I have to restart it for it to go fast. Mining on maxcoinpool.com atm.

[AizenSou]

I can confirm the cgminer_keccak works. 300mhs per 280x.
We nVidia folks don't have the advantage anymore.

Expected diff spike and price drops.

Btw happy birthday to Christian. Send you VTC and LTC as gift

[rizardus]

is there someone who can build this for windows ?

I have no idea but please keep us posted what you can squeeze out of it.

Oh, and Happy Birthday Christian!!!
