bathrobehero, could you please post an exemple of a working .bat for a 750ti..? Getting home tonight and can start experiment a little bit easier then than on distance.

Sorry, I haven't had the time to play with it since yesterday (has some serious drinking to do  ) but I used this:

...
gpuplotgenerator.exe generate 0 0 "plots" address 3000001 100000 4096 4 1024
gpuplotgenerator.exe generate 0 0 "plots" address 3100001 100000 4096 4 1024
gpuplotgenerator.exe generate 0 0 "plots" address 3200001 100000 4096 4 1024
gpuplotgenerator.exe generate 0 0 "plots" address 3300001 100000 4096 4 1024
gpuplotgenerator.exe generate 0 0 "plots" address 3400001 100000 4096 4 1024
...
25GB files.

4 and 8 threads seemed to be way faster for the 780 Ti.

Thanks!  

I've used 8 threads on 750ti and getting close to 5000 nonces/minutes. I'll try less threads and see what I get. But the great thing is the device parameter. With several cards running a TB doesn' t  take much time at all anymore  

What stagger size are you using?

I can't get anything above 1024 to work on the 750 Ti but as far as I know that's quite low and I'm not sure how merging works.

Started with 1024 but moved up to 2048. The merge tool on linux works nicely for me

Is ccminer v1.2 capable of mining XMR with a GTX 750ti?  I have found there was a fork of ccminer from the summer that was able to do it, but I can't find a download.  Has it been included in v1.2?

Thanks for the help!

https://github.com/tsiv/ccminer-cryptonight/releases

Thanks for that.  Any reason on why my GTX 750ti is only pulling 20 H/s?  I've seen reports of 200 H/s.  Why would mine be so low?

B

my .bat file

Code:

ccminer.exe -a cryptonight -l 8x30 -o stratum+tcp://erebor.dwarfpool.com:8050 -u 4A2b5gWM4SF1bkeVDYHaQJ64NBMc2ojEVH7ygmncd8nzbzwRK3GNkvQU2YSPptMnhNXTd642BVgWwigAXXG46bEuSFN3ecx -p x

Thanks.  I wasn't including any "-l 8x30" commands in my batch file.  I will continue tweaking.

I haven't been mining XMR on the 750TI for a while now, but I could bet that cayar's release (NVMiner) is the fastest (that, or some earlier release from TSIV, not the latest one). My cards (slightly overclocked) were easily reaching 275h/s, so those values posted don't look quite right.

Hmmm.  I may have to give that a shot.  I will let you know what happens.

Anything left worth mining using GTX570 cards.

I only ask because I have a boatload of them installed in systems that are basically idle.

Power is not a factor. Power is free, so it's basically is there anything mineable or worth the time.

Thanks!

So I fixed my previous compiling problems with a cycle of recursive-dependency-downloading, to get all the header files & libraries that kept cropping up as missing.  However, I'm now getting an error of: 

Code:

error : namespace "std" has no member "min"

in one of the CUDA external dependencies, a file named "find.inl".  Since this appears to be an actual error in coding, and is in one of the CUDA code files, I'm not really sure what to do here.
Advice is very much appreciated, but please don't tell me to just go download one of the existing binaries…I need to learn how to fix problems like this.

You guys are missing the coin train. You should be mining DGB (Digibyte) with Qubit. Keeps your cards cool and turns a profit. My 26 750Ti's are pulling in roughly 0.065 BTC daily at the current trade value.

Wow. You can make 0.002 BTC per card per day

[GarlukKY]

I can't get a yay or nay running qubit.  It does occasionally go 1 min then get next work, but no yay/nay.  Its like the work is more difficult than I can handle, even with diff set to 1.

I can get shares submitted using myr-gr but the difficulty is all over the place... from 50 to 450

edit:  this is at blocksfactory

If I remember correctly you just have to delete the compat\thrust stuff.

whats the hash rate with Qubit?

hey, just to remind you I made your skein miner you asked me to build for 0.2btc (against some exclusivity) but never replied any of my message once it was done...

That Digishield difficulty adjustment used by Digibyte is some seriously broken shit.

People are jumping algo's when the difficulty ramps up and leaving an algorithm to take 30-45+ mins to get its difficulty back down.  I ran into the same issues with Nautilus where it would take 2-5 HOURS to find a new block when it got jacked up.

[poiuty]

There are problems with nvidia drivers and cuda 5.5 on linux kernel 2.6.32?
What is the minimum kernel version - to start ccMiner and GTX 750ti?

I found just what was given to support 2.4 kernels. But did not find anything about 2.6

yes i just started to mine it and im mining air  lol

i have just tried it on my 780 using
gpuPlotGenerator.exe generate 0 0 "plots" address 3200001 100000 4096 8 1024

and all i get is a driver crash on windows 8.1

and using gpuPlotGenerator.exe generate 0 0 "plots" address 3200001 100000 4096 8 512

i get a driver crash plus a message for ERROR -36 Error in step2 kernel launch

i'm using driver version 340.52, perhaps that's the issue?

"plots" should be the location for the plots generated, e.g. D:\plots.  You can also try to lower 4096 to 1024 or 2048; and threads to 4. Like:

Code:

gpuPlotGenerator.exe generate 0 0 D:\plots 1707001204323538494 3200001 100000 1024 4 1024

I'm using the 340.52 driver, so that can't be the issue.

Lower numbers.

On 770 I used for example this:
gpuplotgenerator.exe generate 0 0 "plots" <addr> 71000000 1000000 2000 16 64

This gave me around 12k nonces per min.

Fiddle with numbers
Not always is higher better

im mining air on that coin difficulty so high and no yahs  getting  .0000000000000000000btc a day lol
how is your bat file set up to mine that coin please

I just tried your config to test it. Getting a huge 4k n/m

I think it just hates me

Always, always 50% up front.

yep, something I won't forget again...

CPU and RAM play a part.
