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

hey my mining rig is windows 8.1, no issues here, take it back **stamps feet**

Glad I'm not the only one...

same here... (not a single problem... and I have both amd and nvida cards on my system...)

edit: actually the first install of the 750ti was rather painful... windows didn't really detect it
I had to install uninstall the drivers...

I'm using Windows 8.1 and Server 2012 R2 for my rigs.  No problems for me either.

Same or different rigs with amd and nvidia?

I have a combination of both card types also but in different rigs.

but as I said in the edit of my previous message, there was some problem the first time I plugged the 750ti... which wasn't detected properly,
I had to instal the drivers from the cdrom (old version...) then upgrade back to those I was using...

[trampk]

tsiv you found out because of what hangs ccminer-cryptonight on windows 8.1 and with 750ti?

[antonio8]

In the cudamining.cc release page, is ther a version released for x15?

I know that nvminer has it but I wanted to compare it to ccminer. For some reason on one of my rigs I can't get the nvminer over 45% gpu load with x15. If I use ccminer on it it works fine (jackpot).

I don't remember if I had issues.  I mine on my desktop PC that I built from scratch.  Installed two GTX 750 Ti's during the initial build before it even had an OS, so I don't think that my situation was quite the same as yours.  I think that I installed initially with the CD and then upgraded via the software/online.

On an unrelated note, I'm getting close to selling one of my Ti's I think... I want to get some cash reserves to buy whatever new maxwell card Nvidia comes out with next.  What is a used 750 Ti SC probably worth?  Can I get > $100 for it?

Try djm34's version of ccminer just to make sure I didn't break anything when making nvMiner.  Let me know if you get anything different with his version.

BTW, what hash rate are you getting on x15?

Sure you can.  Throw in shipping to NJ and I'll buy it from ya.

I am getting closer...

check this out:

    (we expect) "FFT to complete in somewhere around 50 ms, while our slow algorithm would take nearly 20 hours!"-http://jakevdp.github.io/blog/2013/08/28/understanding-the-fft/

still having problem to understand how a function which works on real could be working effectively on integer and strings
(but may it isn't fft in the way I imagine it...).

DJM34:

  Yes for the most part FFT works on real numbers and used mostly for signal processing, but transforms can work in cryptography. There is this white paper that I posted earlier: https://eprint.iacr.org/2014/187.pdf  and the following is a way to multiply integers using FFT:
http://www.cs.rug.nl/~ando/pdfs/Ando_Emerencia_multiplying_huge_integers_using_fourier_transforms_paper.pdf.  

I am still researching FFT and the 256-512 algos to determine how to work the pseudocode together and make a working piece of code that will use cuFFT in the end. (using CCMiner that uses cuFFT..I am thinking that we can get huge speed increases because of the way the transforms are implemented.) I am still learning, and I have to remember back when I took Linear Algebra and Diff Eqs in college..this isn't easy, but there is always a way.

I'll keep that in mind!  As I said, not quite ready to sell it yet.  But probably will soon.  I'm in MD right now so shipping wouldn't be much I'd guess.  I'll let you know if I decide to do it.

Weird. On two rigs (1 and 2) I avg about 1,300 kh/s but on the rig (3) with issues it starts off at about 800 kh/s but drops to about 200 kh/s.

On rig 3, with issues, I have an old AMD tri core but on rig 1 and 2 I have an AMD 1100t and 8350. So maybe the cpu is causing problems. But on rig 1 and 2 I get 90-97% gpu usage but rig 3, with issues, the gpu usage only gets to about 40% but drops to under 10%.

So I don't thinmk it is the nvminer but wanted to compare with ccminer. I was mining core coin which ends real soon so I will try another x15 coin late tonight when I get home from work.

Also possible it's the GPU.  Could you try and switch GPUs between machines to see if the problem follows the GPU or the CPU?

I'm looking for a howto to compile the ccMiner from https://github.com/savale/ccminer with fresh installed Xubuntu 14.04.

chmod +x configure autogen.sh

-> works

./autogen.sh && ./configure && make

-> doesn't work "./autogen.sh: line 1: aclocal: command not found"

Do I need the "cuda toolkit"?

How about dependencies I've needed for SGMiner (AMD) in the past?

Thanks for every hint!

I think it is on the OP for the dependencies and required package (and yes you need cuda... otherwise you won't compile much of anything...)
(try from my release, I don't know how Savale forked it: https://github.com/djm34/ccminer; but if you didn't instal any package... better to start from there anyway)

Try KopiemTu, linux distro with drivers/cuda and ccminer (XMR/X11/X13/JPC ...) installed.
So the ./autogen.sh && ./configure && make will directly work with it for new ccminer

Your issues sound like a driver cash. What version drivers are you using, and do you OC?

[dotvibe]

question on the current JHA cuda compile:

does the current version (the v1.2 variants) use the "Killer Groestl" version, or the standard Groestl one?

lmao the second algo is difficult to find..for copy paste in the code lol

hey my mining rig is windows 8.1, no issues here, take it back **stamps feet**

Glad I'm not the only one...

some old games don't work for me, this is why i prefer w7
