Hello everyone,

Here's a totally noobish question:

What does -C 3 do ?
Won't mine apparently, here's some log.
The card works fine with -C 1 and -C 2

Code:

don't try -C4 that could explode (I don't think it goes past 2)

Same thing happens to me. Seems to happen more frequently with scrypt-n than scrypt for me, but I have no data to back that up. I *think* it may have to do with waking the monitor, it never happens on my machine that has monitor sleeping disabled, but the machine that does put the monitor to sleep locks up occasionally. Once I checked the pool it was running against and it had been submitting work right up until the moment I tried to use the machine (thus waking the monitor). It's a weak hypothesis, but who knows...

In my experience that means you need a bigger power supply.  I had the same thing with 2 AMD 7990's on a 1200w(maybe 1300w) Antec power supply.  As soon as I powered one of the cards with my other psu it was fine.

If you still desire to build cudaminer for yourself, page 130 is where I posted instructions and people get it done with those!
(I feel old now)

may-be this should be put on the first page or added as a readme to the source

[djm34]

For those who don't know what new to mine:

* tenfivecoin (script-N)
* rhinohorn  (cpu/script-n gpu/scrypt in 20000 blocks) save the rhino (might be more profitable by killing it, unfortunately)

If anyone has or is mining Ultra Coin with a 750ti, does 55 kh/s sound about right?

[cbuchner1]

current state of affairs for 3 GTX 780Ti under Linux. HEAVYCOIN.

1gh pool currently has stratum issues. lots of Boos.

it's still very much power efficient. Don't know why that is

Get on the red phone to nvidia and demand they show you how to get more from the algo.  There's clearly some more headroom to exploit

the red phone isn't working on Sundays.

[bigjme]

Lazy nvidia.  Hey why isn't the phone green? I don't want any AMD colours around here (no matter how bad that sounded) :-)

[djm34]

why is it xxxW/350W ? I thought the gtx780ti (reference) was using a maximum of 250W ?
May be it is related to the memory usage, those algo does not use much memory, I think.

[lordaccess]

This thread is getting huge... Anyone wants to start separate threads for each card with How to's like BIOS, bat, OC settings etc? Christian shall we buy you a forum of your own to do this? I lost some days of reading this thread and now I am totally lost about my 780 GTXs and my soon to buy 750ti... It would be great for people like me and new ones to have a how to guide/thread for each card...

magic BIOS.

I am no good at being a web admin. But I agree that having a cudaminer forum could be very helpful.

My rigs are currently pushing me to #6 at the 1gh stats page - despite all the issues with their stratum protocol (15-20% of my shares are boo'ed at)

I ll look it up but other people should also that have some experience. As for the money we can all chip in for an at least 1 year fee or more. This is very important because people use for example windows so compiling posts are doing nothing for them. Them people that work on Linux see posts about windows 8 and 7 that also do nothing for them. Not to mention aaaaall the different cards/scrypt/OC/scrypt-jane etc.

Please post some ideas on how we can make this possible. If something happens and this thread goes away we are pretty much screwed.

Rather than yet another forum to registered on (and people promptly forgetting about), a subreddit is more convenient.
There's plenty of crypto currency content on reddit already, making it more likely to get actually used.
