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

Before I go to sleep, I figured I share this picture which pretty much sums up all the maxcoin pools:

Wow. Are you seriously only getting 160khash on a GTX 780? I can get that on a 7850, and that's a $150 card.

Or are the Cudaminer and Cgminer displays not directly comparable?

they are comparable. I think the code can be optimized more. Keccak should be able to be parallelized in a different way,
using more than 1 thread to compute one hash. This would the lower register use and provide more speed (similar to how David Andersen's CUDA code improved hashing speed for scrypt). We're not maxing out the TDP limits of your GTX 780 cards yet.

Bear in mind that I hacked this up within 24 hours, and cudaminer was the first and only GPU miner from hour zero of the coin launch, racking up HUGE profits for many nVidia card owners, myself included.

Before I go to sleep, I figured I share this picture which pretty much sums up all the maxcoin pools:

these stats are inaccurate. Network hash rate should be in the 40 THash range. That's 40000 GHash only.

[cbuchner1]

3.0, and the hash rate is low isn't it?

and i have two C2050 (capability 2.0) that does the same thing

share your launch configs, please. I would like to figure out what is wrong there. But from the cudaminer screenshot I cannot guess much.

k10 (cap 3.0)

./CudaMiner/cudaminer --algo=keccak -u worker -p x -o stratum+tcp://max.netcodepool.org:5555 -d 0,1,2,3 -i 0,0,0,0 -H 1 -C 2 -l k144x24

c2050 (cap 2.0)

./CudaMiner/cudaminer --algo=keccak -u worker -p x -o stratum+tcp://max.netcodepool.org:5555 -d 0,1 -i 0,0 -H 1 -C 2 -l f2571x1


-l values are from auto-tune

[nitai]

can you use the maxcoin cgminer with nvidia cards ? because mine does nog work en read here that some actually pulled it off someone please help?

It works however my ti560 was 40000 vs 72000.

I just used their compiled version with defaults and it ran, when I tried to optomize it cgminer would crash.

What settings are you using to get 72Mhash on 560 Ti? I have the same card and I can only get like 19Mhash, but get 40Mhash with cgminer.

-H 1? Try -H 2

oh my god did you not look at the readme? Autoune is completely non functional for keccak.
the keccak code was hacked up in just 24 hours and barely functional. Autotune did NOT
make it in before the coin's release.

Take the example values from the README. They start with upper case F and K letters.

-L 256 -l F1024x16  for Fermi devices   (the upper case letter is important)
-L 256 -l K1024x32  for Kepler devices
don't bother with -l T... as this is slower and requires Compute 3.5 anyways

I would also suggest to run exactly one cudaminer instance per card, as otherwise the
likelyhood of crashing is higher. only the latest code on github improves this.

Okay, I have everything (about 1 GHash) pointed at the pool now. One Windows box, two Linux boxes. No CPU validation errors. good accept rates verywhere.
Let's see how this plays (pays) out over time.

Did my latest commit fix your CPU validation issues?

Christian

Even if netcodepool wasn't down, I couldn't tell you, I got one in total.

Edit:
Wouldn't T be capable of going faster eventually though?

Damn, sorry =/

[cbuchner1]

Weird, my fastest worker (3 GTX 780Ti ~ 540 MHash) gets just 80% accepted shares on max.netcodepool.org, but the other two workers (300 MHash and 178 MHash) get 96% and 98% accepted.  As if faster workers have more trouble with the pool. Unusual.

Yeah, my two gtx 780's are at 80% accepted as well.


Instances or workers? I can try different workers. They are running in two separate instances right now, pointed to the same worker.

[cbuchner1]

Yeah, my two gtx 780's are at 80% accepted as well.

have you tried splitting them up into two separate workers, or are you already doing that?

[bathrobehero]

GTX 660 had ~96% at 86MH/s few hours earlier.

GTX 680 around 73% after a few hours, same pool

Christian.

Weird, at first I had like 65% accepted and now I can't connect at all :s

[relm9]

I'm getting an 80-85% acceptance rate from my 780s, though they are on the same worker... going to try splitting them up and see how that goes.

My fastest worker gets 95% shares on max.netcodepool.org but some slower workers just 60% shares. So bad that I never seen in my life. I stop mining with this pool. max.hashfaster.com is better for me.

Btw the price drops as I predicted. My prediction for this madness in next two days:
- Price drops to 0.001
- Diff goes up to 100k.

By then mining Maxcoin will be the same profitable as another altcoins.

Just my 2 cents.

yeah, but until then let's all ride the gravy train. Weeeeee!

The one thing separating this alt from others is that its being hyped up Kesier though... he's BTC rich, could easily buy up the orderbook to 0.05 for publicity's sake. It went from 0.007 to 0.04 on MCXnow in a matter of minutes the night this was released so could happen again. Who knows. Already made quite a bit from mining so I'll hold onto some of it.
