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

Hello, im having probs with my ccminer...

I just started using it for 660ti, I opened and created bat with      ccminer35.exe -t 1 -a X11 -o stratum+tcp://stratum-eu.suchpool.pw:3331 -u name -p x

I havent mined it myself but I think it should be "x11" for the algo, not "X11"

Hello, im having probs with my ccminer...

I just started using it for 660ti, I opened and created bat with      ccminer35.exe -t 1 -a X11 -o stratum+tcp://stratum-eu.suchpool.pw:3331 -u name -p x

I wanted to mine x11 SYNC coin. I used ccminer35 and 30, but everytime it looked like it would open, the command line window would close and ccminer.exe get deleted, I do not know why! I really want to mine x11 with my nvidia card. I havent used it to mine scrypt or other algo before, so Im pretty sure i have done some big mistake, but still cannot understard why the exe would get deleted!

Normally only the ccminer30.exe should work fine for a 660ti, you can check it here too: https://developer.nvidia.com/cuda-gpus
And why are you using the -t flag? Are you mining on only one GPU? I'd advice using the -d flag for that.

But in your specific case, I suppose it's your antivirus/-spyware acting up; as soon as you run something he thinks, falsely, is some virus/spyware, he deletes it in an instant. Try whitelisting ccminer (all versions) or disabling your AV altogether.

your reply was just spot on, I recently changed AV to avast which DID not inform me that it considered the ccminer a virus, thus blocking it!


As to my devices, yeah, I have one gpu, I read the readme file to set it up, didnt even know the -d one, ill set it as "-d 660ti". ccminer is new version and I havent yet found an EXACT conf for a 660ti!

If you have only one device, you don't need the -d flag either.
Anyways, is it working?

[policymaker]

yeah it worked! ty so much! I was getting 1,7 mh/s which I do not know if it considered good for a 660ti on x11. some down spikes @1,5mh every now and then, and one line of  "gpu#0 could not allocate to CPU" or something. Im not even sure, but it continued hashing nonetheless.

By the way, do I have to set GPU_MAX_ALLOC_PERCENT 100 setx GPU_USE_SYNC_OBJECTS 1 like in ati miner or not? I didn't set anything like that!


edit: for some funny reason , process explorer doesnt report the gpu usage, but asus gpu tweaker does. I guess miner doesnt trigger the process explorer for some reason




PS: do we have an eta on X13 ccminer ?

[christian1980]

Hey Nvidia Army, Nicehash is currently paying almost 5 BTC/GH/Day/X11.
Even Curecoin cannot beat this.

how many GH do you have ?

0,012 from my 6 750ti. Thats 0.06 BTC / day at current rate.

hehehe... that was fast. going down to normal rates now...

I am not getting very many threads accepted (yay!!!) out of the overall submissions...

Anyone have any ideas why? I have never set up to mine here before.

Does both cuda and ccminer work nice with NiceHash?

As both does not have primary and backup pool is there any risk of my GPU/RIG become "idle" as no one want to use it?

Difficulty set by Nicehash is way too high for two GTX750TI's (amirite? ). You could change it by setting the password as d=difficulty. I have mine set as -p d=0.02 for my own 2x gtx750ti's.

Hey Nvidia Army, Nicehash is currently paying almost 5 BTC/GH/Day/X11.
Even Curecoin cannot beat this.

Does both cuda and ccminer work nice with NiceHash?

As both does not have primary and backup pool is there any risk of my GPU/RIG become "idle" as no one want to use it?

Yes, they work. I don't see many problems, and they pay out nicely. Since I have around 6.7x the amount of hashes for X11 vs scrypt (2200kh/325kh on 1x 750ti), the payout in BTC/GH/DAY may be 6.7x lower. It's only 2x lower ATM
But true, they don't have failover support yet, I'm hoping it gets implemented soon Fingers crossed!

Thanks for the info on how to set that.

I was messing around and running all 6x 750ti off one instance helped a ton with that...  now I am getting 1-2 YAY!!! per block, and the stats seem about right now.

Appreciate the help.

[supercoin434]

Guys, I'm setting my diff and min price as follows (for x11 on Nicehash, GTX760 with CCminer latest)  -

-p d=0.01;p=0.4

I thought I should be getting in at the > 4.00  BTC/GH/Day prices but am getting 2.00 and lower   .. What gives? If I set p=4.0 I get stratum errors so seems that is too high .. such mystery...

There is currently no open order for anything above 4.00. All the orders down to 1.5 are filled with hashes, and I guess it's a "first come first serve" way, so keep mining and you'll probably get into the higher paying pools.
I wouldn't suggest setting a price limit though. Since ccminer has no failover support, your miner won't fallback to another pool if the price is too low.

I've been trying to get the newest version of ccminer running to mine darkcoin with my GTX750Ti to no avail. my batch contains "ccminer50.exe -t 1 -a x11 -o east1.us.stratum.dedicatedpool.com:8001 -u user -p pass" and I ensured my AV is disabled. the command line sits idle for a bit after starting, then states "HTTP request failed: Operation timed out after 30577 milliseconds with 1198 out of -1 bytes received" followed immediately by "json_rpc_call failed, retry after 30 seconds". the GTX750Ti is compute 5.0 so I'm assuming I should be running ccminer50, but even so I've tried all the compute level versions with no luck. Any help you guys could provide would be great, thanks!

You need to add "stratum+tcp://" before your url. So it should be "-o stratum+tcp://east1.us.stratum.dedicatedpool.com:8001", without the quotation marks ofcourse.

@cbuchner1 & chris80

Blakecoin dev has requested you to look into optimizing cudaminer for blake256 algo. He goes by the name Bluedragon747 https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=140920

I guess and twitter handle is @blakecoin ofcourse. Please can you look into that so that we have a new version of cudaminer for a change? IMO blakecoin's merged mining pool are interesting. Can we optimize for it and put ATI to shame there as well.

Regards Sam

[Tyr808]

I know curecoin doesn't relate to CC/cuda at all, but since no one uses the new forum for it I thought I'd briefly share my findings as this directly relates to and effects nvidia users.  The 327.23 driver release has indeed been far superior on my 660ti (GK104 kepler).  I'm pulling just shy of 70k PPD on it where before it was less than 30k on the 337 beta drivers.  I'd be happy to help anyone else having trouble with folding on their nvidia kepler series cards, but we should do that over here: http://www.cudaminers.net/forum/psa-327-23-drivers-massive-ppd-increase-on-gk104-thread.html

why is MSVCR100.DLL  still missing after instaling Visual C++ Redistributable for Visual Studio 2012 Update 4

for x11
ccminer1.0,,,,750ti

should I really install    win7 X86    Im using x64 now

[gpuminer]

Ok, lets get back to final version of x11 and killer groestl. It will be a great event. I think its already done, just that developer is finding a way to conceal the code for killer groestl
.

Any news for release ?

Because you need 2010 SP1
