I think we might need also need X13 (a new coin is going to be release) https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=601965.0

It appears crypto coins are adopting the razor blade strategy. I predict we will have a x22 algo in a month.

You guys can still mine Marucoins --- I did with my AMD 290x in the past.  But now their difficulty is still very low, so it is still minable if you have AMD cards. Otherwise, wait for cc 1.1, maybe, :-). I checked the site that dev team is trying to redo the logo, etc. So seems it is still in active development now.  The main argument here is that, when everyone goes for X11, and rumors about FPGA farms and x11 multipool hanging around the corner, the additional 2 algorithms will temporarily make them safer for GPU miners -- at least for short period of time.

When possible, mine coins that first implement some algorithm, they have higher chance of success in the future.  That's the reason I mined some Maru, and not sell it yet.  Same reason I still hold my HVC even the price crashed... (well, to confess, I also mined two days of MNR). Maybe DOGE is an exception here. I still love that community, and believe it may have some chance to take off... maybe even brighter future than LTC.

Given that, I personally would suggest mine some alternative coins with even temp 'additional' protection.  Be it x13, x14,  x15.... x100...

I haven't tried much Maru, I was late to the ninja cpu only launched and I barely tested the cgminer version.
Also X11 plus two other algos already coded for gpu, sound like dev had always his own gpu code... (took 2 or 3 days to phm to come up with his algo... ).
So I didn't really looked into it...
That's why I think later coins based on this algo have more chance to have some "success" as there won't be any suspicion and everybody will the code on launch. But clearly I don't think X13 or Xmore will have any real success (there isn't any innovation, just recycling...)

The development code for X11 looks good, I hope we won't have to wait christmas for the 880...

I was late to the coin as well.  I did not bother CPU mining, and only after sgminer start supporting it, I think it was time to redirect my 290x to them -- at that time Hirocoin difficulty was high already (I missed Darkcoin and decide to give X11 a try, and Hirocoin seems ok among others).   So far I think it is still minable.   As I said,  I personally don't think it is technically hard for FPGA or x11 multipools to attack them -- but there are other x11 easy targets, so before they are bored at x11, and before x13 (or x14...x100, whatever) become new targets of those sharks, I think it can still give us some quiet mining time.... for now.   As it was said, you don't have to run faster than the bears, just run faster than your friends...., x11 is the meat now, and I decide to go x13 for now since the difficulty is still acceptable --- with pools at least, I did two days solo mine and then feel uncomfortable when it took longer and longer to solo mine while difficulty start rising, then I go with pool. So far, I think pool mining still works fine.

Well..... I haven't cared about my 290x for some time (amateur miner, don't have time to keep my eyes on rigs all time and keep track of all coins). So when I reply this, I checked my 290x states, and find I get quite more coins recently. And the difficulty is just 6 now!!!  I will switch to solo tonight again, :-).  It is kinda of like new release now... I may mine the alternative x13 coins you mentioned when it is launched, for a couple of days solo, but now I will stick w/ Maru. 

Don't hit it too hard and get the difficulty up too much... don't force me to pool mining again, LOL. Just kidding.

Mining x11 (Logic Coin) for the first time with ccminer-v1.0 and here are my results:

ccminer30
660Ti SC --> 1750 khash/s
660Ti ------> 1670 khash/s
780Ti SC --> 3040 khash/s

ccminer35
780Ti SC --> 2700 khash/s

So the big iron runs compute 3.0 better than 3.5.

[cryptodragon]

I don't know how many of you guys jumped on Maru now... I was happily enjoy the difficulty of 6, and start solo again, and all of sudden, the difficulty rise up to 13 and keep going... LOL.

Anyway, happy mining and enjoy, :-).

For all the people hitting X11 with there Nvidia gpu's
http://blackcoinpool.com
Has started there X11 and v2 new setup.
looks great.
I have helped several people setup miners tonight.
I am hanging out in the IRC there if anyone needs help.
Good luck and kick some ass.

My name in IRC is AltCoinGamer.

I have 4 of my 10 750ti's pointed there. If the payout is decent, I am all in.

I am patiently awaiting that suped up version of x11 now.

So the big iron runs compute 3.0 better than 3.5.

I am also seeing a higher hashrate with compute 3.0 compared to 3.5 on a 780Ti (mining x11 at drkpool):
ccminer30 - ~3500 khash/s
ccminer35 - ~2900 khash/s

Odd.

Any report for x11 speed for gtx 750 ti palit stormx oc (not dual) ? I am thinking of getting either one, stormx oc or evga sc. Evga sc sell @ 10% more compare to stormx oc (not dual). Does evga sc perform at least 10% more than palit stormx oc ?

1700kh/s. Well usually its 1696
Thats on stock frequencies , I don't bother overclcoking

[liomojo1]

Now my laptop gt555m makes 270khs on x11 , it always makes 10 times less hash than my ti750 , so yes, the real x11 hash of ti 750 should be around 2500khs.

Running Linux I get around 3400 with two of them

X11 perf on one 750 Ti (development version)...  Be afraid AMD.

Code:

[2014-05-12 00:43:33] thread 0: 3670017 hashes, 2698 khash/s
[2014-05-12 00:43:33] Total: 2698 khash/s

Brutal.
I'm shocked.

Anybody have any figures what's the most profitable coin to mine for nvidia these days?

not an easy question (for me).

XLB & ERC looks quite nice to mine at the moment... both are x11.
looking forward for the x11 performance update... that would make x11 clearly the best algo to mine.
C&C hope you both could deal with all the chorus of praise about you - but you were great! 

christians secret quark algo hint BTQ also looks interesting again - they will be listed on an new exchange (comkort; if you like to use my referal:https://comkort.com/?r=12071810 ) the next days and the diff is quite low. I'm in with my 750ti's at the moment.

SCR & YAC are my fallbacks.



hope cvax makes his cool xls again - it was always a great help.

Does it matter which variation of the 750 ti you get?

1.  Have the dual fan versions outperformed the single fan versions?

2.  Is it worth it to get the most expensive 750 ti version that has higher clocks of 1294 in the gigabyte version?  These are $20 more ($179) than the standard OC versions on newegg.  Do they hash more or does it not matter because we can overclock all cards in the miner anyway.

3.  Any recommendations on cards with a 6pin power and cards without?  It would seem to be an advantage to have cards without since you would need less cables for running off a single PSU but what are people's thoughts?

I don't own a single 750 ti but I just ordered a single fan PNY, a dual fan Gigabyte superclock, and msi ti classic single fan version.

4.  Which leads me to my next question.  What have been the results from miners mixing and matching different branded 750 ti's in the same rig?  No Problems?  Can use same clocks for all without issues?

5.  Is there a best card/brand/type per dollar that has already been established?

Thanks for your input.

My cards only go that low if I've OCd it too high. Reboot your rig and try again.

Also, share your command line that you're running just in case.
