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

[Kablam]

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).

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?

Carlo

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.

i think its the cpu it dont have aes-ni in it if its a old amd a-series apu

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?

Carlo

Each machine has 5 750ti's on powered USB risers. This one has 5 MSI factory overclocked. The one with no problems are Evga super clock. The MSI (problem computer) are clocked higher.

It might be easier to change out cpu's.

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

No overclock.

Even if I restart the computer they never go above these clocks.

I will be at work for a while but will check the driver versions when I get home.

This is what I am leaning towards also. I'll just get one from eBay.

It's an old Am3 socket

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)

Ok, I've downloaded yours ... BTW thank you very much for your awesome work with the SPH-SGMiner !!!!

I've downloaded the cuda toolkit 6 for Ubuntu 13.04 from https://developer.nvidia.com/cuda-downloads?sid=553115 too, but will it work properly with 14.04? Any recommendations to use 6.5 RC instead?

Can you (or someone else) tell me were I can find a list with all the dependencies (Xubuntu 14.04 maybe 13.10) I need?

After that I only need to prompt ...

chmod +x configure autogen.sh
./autogen.sh && ./configure && make

... right?

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

Thank you for the hint but, if possible, I would love to use Xubuntu and installed by my own.

Edit:

This is my conclusion after reading the "Cuda Getting Started Linux" PDF from Nvidia and what I would do at the moment if I could access my mining rig.

lspci | grep -i nvidia

gcc --version

cd Downloads

sudo dpkg -i cuda-repo-<distro>_<version>_<architecture>.deb

sudo apt-get update

sudo apt-get install cuda

export PATH=/usr/local/cuda-6.0/bin:$PATH

export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/cuda-6.0/lib64:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH

cd ..

cd ccminer-master

chmod +x configure autogen.sh

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

Thank you for every improvement suggestion!

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


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

none of these algo exist for gpu yet...

[cbuchner1]

none of these algo exist for gpu yet...

since it's the people's currency, I am sure we'll find some people to implement these

Christian,
Boolberry stratum code is tested and complete. Both are here -> https://github.com/cryptozoidberg
Our test pool has found a few blocks -> http://162.243.210.156/#
ExtremePool has the stratum code running on http://boolberry.extremepool.org/

This looks like a reasonable starting point to do either a fork of said code, or to pull in all the stratum code into ccminer.

I'll proabably start by creating a cudaminer/ccminer-like Windows port based on Visual C++ 2010, as Windows is my primary
development environment for mining software.

Christian

Christian - Any progress?

ok ive been ignoring cudamining.cc for a bit too long now. after coding all day at work i just dont want to at home. lets get this release page sorted shall we

by the way, can you put cudamining.cc in your signature, could be useful

[bigjme]

Will do, for everyone reading, the site is going to go down, i am about to do a full overhal on the entire website.

Lots of backend code to change which i have been planning for a while now

Can someone point me to the latest ccminer with x11/x13/x15 support? I thought I was subscribed to this thread, but I stopped getting updates, and when I checked again manually, I could see that I'm way behind now. 

[bigjme]

Ok so i have changed things a little,
if you go to http://cudamining.cc/url/releases you will see a list of user submissions by their forum name. Right now none of the versions have been moved to the correct user except one by tsiv

Please let me know who did what out of the current releases, you can see them under bigjme and i will move them to the right user.

Some versions are missing aswell as please send me links to them, say who they are by

Versions will be changes by each user soon also so the first release i have of tsiv's will be names v1 so people can reference their own version numbers.

It doesnt look nice right now and there may be some issues in the website when i have changed code and not check it for errors, again report all bug to me

I do prefer messages directly so i can see them as most days i only skim the forum and miss a lot of stuff

The pages where the current users can login should be done tomorrow as i have some changes to make to the form i am using.

So all in all, everything SHOULD be up and running so that users can post their own mining release by tomorrow night (when ever i go to sleep ), but only i can create users to prevent spamming

The best I can do: https://github.com/djm34/ccminer
the windows binaries are lost somewhere...   (search should work, may-be easier to search for nvminer)
or try for fresh, this version also include the x15

I would not use cuda 6.5 until it is officially released and tested. I have seen no difference in performance between 5.5 and 6.0, you need 6.0 to use sm_50 but nothing in ccminer requires that yet.

Your earlier error would appear to be from not having automake installed. Make sure you have everything needed for compiling C++ applications. I am not familiar with the usual setup for this on ubuntu.

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...)

Same or different rigs with amd and nvidia?

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

same rig...
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...

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?

-l 6x40 did the trick.

ffs.
