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

[prichina]

I've mined before but with 280x and i've seen that with 750 Ti on X11 algo reach 2,1-2,2 Mhrate but i don't know how to configure ccminer or bat file

Thanks it;s working 1,9-2 Mh rate can u help me with O.C settings

BTW, if you OC to much you'll notice that ccminer goes nuts with high hash rates (off the chart high), will crash or you'll see strange errors.  Just back off a bit.
Hope this helps,
Carlo

Does anyone know the fix again for this problem.  My multicard rig like clockwork will go nuts with highhashrates after some time.  This is running stock clocks.  At the minimum is there a ccminer command that can restart it every 2 hours or so?  I can't find the page that discussed this solution.

How many GPU's and what OS?

Does anyone know the fix again for this problem.  My multicard rig like clockwork will go nuts with highhashrates after some time.  This is running stock clocks.  At the minimum is there a ccminer command that can restart it every 2 hours or so?  I can't find the page that discussed this solution.

How many GPU's and what OS?

Windows 8.1, AMD A6, 8gb Ram, usb powered risers.  (usb risers are plugged into 4pin molex because i'm not sure if they work without being plugged in).

-I know it happens with 4 or 5 cards in the rigs (haven't reduced the cards to 1 or 2 to see if they can hash stable).  Happens on both a 500watt corsair and 600watt corsair rig.  Used both the last 2 latest Nvidia drivers, no change.

The other thing that happens and others have noticed as well is that 1 or more of the 750ti's will downclock to a very low clock speed.  The 2 symptoms are probably related.

I thought there was some programming fix for this but it's lost in the thread.
EDIT:  I've studied it and essentially one of the cards is crapping out or dropping the driver and then makes the card drop to 500mhz clock.  This then causes all the other cards to lose stratum and the hashing goes wild for all the other cards. The card downclocking is the number 1 card position in EVGA precision.  Does that mean it is in the first riser spot or the last x16 PCIe slot?

EDIT 2:  Removing the 1st x1 usb riser card along with removing the last x16 onboard card and going down to 3 cards seems to not recreate the problem.  If there is anyone who has 4, 5 or even 6 750ti cards stable using ccminer on X11 can you please tell me your entire setup and config?  Thanks.

What you can try (no guarantee it will work) is to set the parameter SHARED in some .cu file to 0
(I know this solved temporarily some problems I had with my gtx780ti, however I just had to decrease the overclock as my problem was caused by excessive overclocking and the symptoms were different (loss of power then driver crash))

Try this
https://github.com/KBomba/ccminer-KBomba/releases

This is the version I'm presently running on my 3 nvidia rigs.

[prichina]

Get a new powerful power supply, it isn't enough. Problem solved. They need more Amps, juice.

It would be nice to have such feature on ccminer... 

[GarlukKY]

Anyone have suggested settings for a 750 TI with the change to N-factor 15 on YAC?

[prichina]

Actually...i prefer ccminer v1.0 without the simd improvemend, when i'm sitting on my pc i want to be usable while i'm mining.

You might have mentioned this but make sure you do not plug more than 2 cards into the daisy chain. Those things aren't supposed to carry that much current in them.

I have absolutely no problem running 5 on a 550 watt power supply.

I would sit down and use PrecisionX (or whatever you have installed) to run the fan speed up on one card at a time to verify which card is located where.

It is the only way to be sure.

Once you know, you won't have to wonder anymore about which card is where in the slots.

To restart them every two hours, just write a batch file that starts with killing the command window you opened by name (taskkill), reset the cards (devcon), then startup the mining process again (start ccminer50.exe blah, blah, blah...)

Then schedule that bat file to execute every two hours in task manager.

Should work like a charm so long as the whole machine doesn't freeze up for some reason.

If you have another machine like your main desktop, you can have it ping your miner, and if it doesn't respond shoot you an email or something so you would know the whole machine is down.

I have 4 x 750 Tis. When I mine JPC, it starts off hashing around 2800KH/s.... after about 5 mins, all of them drop to about 250KH/s.... any ideas ??

Windows?
try to set your power options to "High performace".
also 2.8MHps is way too low... you should get like 3.8MHps per each 750TI... i get 4MHps with OCed cards.

4MHps per 750ti?? Jeez i get less than that with oced gtx770....
Is there really no room for improvement for kepler cards?

kepler is doomed
but nvidia postponed the highend 20nm maxwell cards so we need to stick with the 750tis for a while

Can anyone give me a hand with a bat file for minining Yacoin, with cudaminer, I have tried all configs, I could find and all it does is keep saying Stratum Detected new block but never gets on to hashing.

[Bombadil]

Have you guys checked this?
https://www.nicehash.com/multialgo/

It would be nice to have such feature on ccminer...  

Nothing really special. If cudaminer/ccminer had real failover support, you could easily set a failover with the price in your nicehash password. They're all in the hype of their algorithm-changing on-the-fly for sgminer.
Anyways, I myself am working on my own profit switcher in C#. 3 modes: failover only, profit by coin & profit by multipool (24h average or when there are promotions like bcpool's giveaways). I will add Nicehash as a "coin", backed by their API to switch over. It will also use benchmarks to normalize your hashrates, maybe even factor in your power usage.
I'm almost there, just need a nice gui, actually saving my settings, overheat-protection, etc... but I've been busy with it for quite some time now as I'm only a hobby programmer. So expect at least another 2 week (if someone beats me to it, feel free ^^" ) I will not release it before I can actually present you something nice & tested (else someone else will beat me faster to it )
Also, at this point, I'm still open to feature requests Don't expect me to hastily code something after I released it (but I may, don't know what the future will bring )

Just do what I do. Make one bat using the older version and run that when you're using the rig, and make another one, using the newest version, for when you are not. Then, just change between them when needed.

it will be console or windows forms app?  
Did you see CGWatcher?

Windows Forms Everyone likes a nice UI. I'm actually writing it for myself, but I think everyone else might like it too, so that's why I'll be releasing it.
Yep, I saw CGWatcher, it's one of my inspirations, next to CUDAManager, but I'm writing it from scratch.

I'm still wondering how I could implement the profit switching by multipool. OK, I could use the api from poolpicker to pick the most profitable pool over X days, but only for scrypt. I'm unsure if that's still worth it.

Christian will give us a new toy soon. 

Suggest what is it?
X13 ?? No no not something easy like that.
It's even better.
It's Cryptonight (MRO/QCN/FCN) nVidia-miner. 

It's ****ing genius.

I will be content and happy with just x11 with killer goretl + 10% JPC upgrade.
