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

So far I can't get my 970's to use more than 79% power, but they're still mining about as well as my rig of 6 750 non-Ti's or a rig of 5 Ti's.

Looks like the miners will need some tweaks to get them operating at full speed.  I'm sure the usual suspects will be on it as soon as they get one of the new cards, but feel free to compile me some with newer computes to try out   I would rather not spend hours messing around with visual studio again...

how many 970 do you have? two?

I was wondering the same, i am expecting it to be 2

Yup, 2.  There was only room for 1 750ti underneath them so I sold my other one in my main desktop to my roomate.  The Gigabyte gaming 970s are loooong, and they fit so close to the heatsink and sata connectors on my UD4H Z87 board that I thought it was going to short something out.

It's currently doing this weird thing where the monitors wake up from sleep and it reorganizes the open programs on my task bar.  It also is having a bluescreen in win8.1 when shutting down or restarting, so I think I'm going to wipe all drivers and try again.  Maybe it doesn't play nice with that minor update they pushed out when the 750 is running 144.11 and 970s are 144.16.  I'm updating my mobo bios to a beta one now too, so hopefully things are better all around after that, who knows.  Was all fine until 970s went in 

so we now know, 970 is 2.5 750ti's even at 80% efficiency.
If we can get to 100% it would be fair to say 3 750ti's
and i would guess at the 980 being 4 750ti's

sound reasonable?

i would say 3.5-3.6 for the 980, that's why i keep saying that they are overpriced

970 vs 980 is like 20%

i still may get a 980 so i will say when i find out (if others don't first)
i am not paying for the 980 though

I need a 980 now... 

I miss mining at home and having a gaming beast of a gpu.

right now, im looking to move my 780 to work, and my 980 for at home :p
what, no that wasn't crysis 3 i was playing, it was a client video

...which algos have you tried?
would be nice to have some info about CN and BBR...

Can you give us some numbers on the hashrates you get? I'm interested :p

[djm34]

Someone can help with this, it looks interesting.

no It doesn't... the sk-1024 looks interesting on itself but launched one month after the "cpu only" channel (primecoin) which isn't cpu only... (damn, I wish I knew something about primenumber  ) means the coin will have been raped by private gpu miner even before the gpu channel is out.

Also skein doesn't perform well on nvidia (or rather it performs a lot better on amd).... (need to check if it isn't the sha256 part though... )

and forgot to mention that this coin should have been launched 2 months... so basically they are not good at planning  (and other surprise may arise)

+1 would be interesting to know what it gets on m7
Is this 79% tdp is for all algo ? (won't be buying the 970... though... but the 980...)

Which release should I use for to get the most accurate result on m7?  I have basically stuck with x11 and JHA the last few months and don't have too much time to mess around until the weekend, so I stuck it on JHA and it was only using %79.  Maybe that's just how Afterburner is reporting it, but I need to shut down a different rig and swap the killowatt meter to my desktop when i get a chance to do real wattage comparisons.

According to these 980 results, the numbers seem about right considering they're 970s, but if it's actually operating at %80 then I'd guess it could beat the 980 they tested at 100% TDP on Jackpot.

which sounds a little strange for the exact same tech... with less cores  
(it might be a software problem... meaning the TDP isn't reported correcly...)

regarding the m7 use my latest release... (on cudamining.co.uk) or on github

regarding the low tdp usage, it could means that the card is choking on memory.... (I am afraid), now if you look at the 750ti, in most of the case, it is the tpd usage is quite similar... (will need to rework some of the algo...).

Fine.  About 32.5Mhash minus 5 for the 750 in here = 27.5

Divide that by 2, and we get 13.75 at 80% TDP (if Afterburner 4 is reporting correctly). Compare that to 15Mh @ 100% TDP cryptomining blog got.

Maybe I'll be able to check true wattage tonight.  They are running 74-79C, so it seems they are running very hot for the massive cooler they have on them. Maybe they're at 100% after all 

[Ignition75]

haha why will he?

haha you don't know Chris. He's mining farm-fetish LOL.
Btw I'm considering this one, looking sexy as hell

thanks!
nearly 14Mhash - not bad for a 970@JHA. The true wattage would be great.
which cards do you have exactly?

the cryptomining review is 980 based, not 970

2 weeks delivering mate. Still waiting LOL. Gamers buy this baby like crazy (probably miners too).

don't know... well will see that in two weeks min...
on a side note, that's more than a r9 290x  

edit: doesn't make much sense... you should get at least twice the hashrate of the 750ti (256bit mem bus against 128bit)

Try to check if you are in boost mode (just in case) and may-be try to increase the memory clock

edit 2: what is this compute 5.2 they are talking about on the blog, I can't even find a ref. on nvidia site....)
