Just Curious Christian what you might get for Scrpyt Hash speeds With your 3 Mars 760 Cards? Or would they run too hot and isn't viable?

this.   I could try and benchmark the least hot one of them.

What the hell is going on with this coin market , everything is going down??? Vertcoin down, microcoin down, ultracoin down , panda coin down , titti coin down ............... 

[patoberli]

Should we still do cuda 6 tests?

[cbuchner1]

Should we still do cuda 6 tests?

if you have a 750ti, try to build the nvkernel2.cu and the titan_kernel.cu against --arch=compute_50
to see if you get more than 250 kHash/s out of it.

EDIT: 3 more hours before the press embargo is lifted. HOLD ON

I am sorry, we're out of bulls. Here, have a bear.

I need to know haha. Shouldnt be long till its lifted now.

Hi,

I have this card :
http://www.nvidia.com/object/product-nvs-300-us.html

It has 16 cuda core.

But I still don't get it.
I know I have to use the F for Fermy/Legacy flag, but for the blocks and warps I don't understand.

I tried 32x16 which is getting 5000khashs/s but result only in new stratum blocks detected and no accepted blocks neither refused.
How do you compute the best BxW for an legacy card like that ?

PS : I know it's a really bad card...

use the autotune: -lF (without any number, it should be fast with 16 cores)

Ain't nobody got time for that! 

Let's put some pressure on this then, shall we? I promise the following:
In exchange for a working, malware-free GPU riecoin miner which is significantly faster than CPU mining and works with Nvidia (integrated to the cudaminer would be optimal) I promise to donate to the creator:
-10% of what I mine in the first 24 hours
- 5% what I mine in the second day
- 2% what I mine on 3rd day
- 1% for days 4-31
Scrypt hashrate comparison 350 kh/s

Anyone else in? quote this with +1/ I'm in and I'll add you to the list. Post your scrypt hashrate for reference and I'll keep updating the total donation promise to this post. lets see how much we can get!

+1

Got a GTX 780 at home...716kg/s mining scrypt, 325 mining vertcoin, 203mh/s max, 5.33kh/s yac and 420kh/s UTC.
If anyone can do this, I'm sure it's cbuchner1.

716khash/s mining LTC!!! am only getting a range from 450kh/s to 590kh/s and a rare few seconds of 630kh/s. Ive been using autotune and the launch config are usually T12x24 or T24x24 or between these 2 numbers. Any guidance would be great. 

I'd say don't mine scrypt! :p
Consumption is too darn high, nvidia shines mining different algos, say scrypt-jane, variable n factor scrypt and whatnot.
You'd make more money mining ultracoin anyway.

Was looking at all the alt coins and was wondering which coin is the most profitable coin to mine with a high end nvidia card? You brought up ultracoin, what about maxcoin, primecoin, yacoin or feathercoin? So if this is annoying it just overwhelming to have many coins to mine from without being sure which will dead and which will survive.

[cbuchner1]

Pandacoin (PANDA, not the older PAND) is the most profitable one IMHO.  More so than VertCoin even.

[bigjme]

But where to sell pandacoin?

[offbeat07]

Can someone help me, Im really new w/ this coin mining. Im trying to setup a cudaminer w/ GT 540M gpu.
My first question is I dont know where the .bat file should be save to.
Im using this configuration cudaminer -d 0 -i 1 -C 2 -l K4x16 -H 1 stratum+tcp://coinotron.com:3334 -O user:pass
2nd question can someone give me the proper configuration? please help! Thanks for those create and share cudaminer btw.

I must have been checking the wrong thread. Oops

pool you would recommend? Pamda-pool.net seems good and secure but it only has 2.7% of hash distribution. What do you think?

What I don't really get, why aren't those 8x0 series cards? I mean they are based on a new chip generation and thus should be named 8x0 series.

Anyway, time to read the reviews

Tom's Hardware was benchmarking LTC mining with cudaminer, hehe...

.bat should be in the same folder as cudaminer.exe
beginning should be:
cudaminer.exe --no-autotune
if you are setting your own launch-config (using the -l option)

you don't need -i 1 since that is the default
don't know if you need -d 0 if you have only 1 GPU, I guess it can't hurt?
In my testing I didn't find the -H option to ever be helpful -H 0 made it worse and -H 1 made no difference for me.

you can make another .bat with just
cudaminer -D --benchmark
and that will find the best launch-config for you

you can also try:
cudaminer -D -C 1 --benchmark
cudaminer -D -C 2 --benchmark

mine didn't spit out the best launch-config unless I had the -C option set

also you can read the readme.txt in the cudaminer folder for all the options and what they do
protip: use GPU-Z to watch your temps.

Looks like they want to save the 8xx for the bang when introducing the big irons in summer. And possibly for the 20nm process node.

Hmm, gtx 780 update in the summer? I think its a possibility
