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

...
All I can say is that I'm out of ideas how to push it any further

It's very nice as is, stable as hell and I'm finding blocks pretty regularly. It's been months since I made any money with my GPUs    So thanks again!

Enjoy it while it lasts, it should indeed be (just barely) profitable with Maxwell at current prices and network hash rate. Looks like there's a slight upward trend in the price too. The coin could very well end up getting picked up on C-CEX next week, god knows how that's going to play out.

Network hash rate is rather stable now (I guess the amd guys still have some problems) and price is going up a bit. It might be variance/luck but 0.03/day with seven 750TIs aren't that bad nowadays. But as you say, it won't last for long.

If anybody feels like mining Spreadcoin.... https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=715435.msg9607661#msg9607661

Apparently the official OpenCL miner does something like 0.55 MH/s on a 280X while a factory OC GTX 750 Ti does something like 1.65 MH/s and a Gigabyte GTX 970 G1 hits 3.8 MH/s on my CUDA version. There's a definite NVIDIA advantage there for now, the AMD number seems very low and will probably improve drastically in the future. Whether or not the coin is worth mining is a whole different question.

Thank you, it's been week a go the cards did something meaningful  Coins from my first will be your!

No pools?

I never sent my gpu hash directly to my wallet. can someone help please. in my conf file is exactly this
daemon=1
listen=1
server=1
rpcuser=your_username
rpcpassword=your_password
rpcallowip=127.0.0.1
rpcport=9050

my bat file is this exactly    spreadminer -o stratum+tcp://127.0.0.1:9050 -u your_username -p your_password -d 0,1,2,3

my wallet says  127.0.0.1    port 9050
this is all i get no yah s

SpreadCoin uses SpreadX11 algorithm and does not use mining pools, you can only solo mine the coin, so you need to make sure that you have created spreadcoin.conf file with the required settings to be able to connect the miner to the wallet running on one of your computers. The config file needs to be placed in the Users\ YOURUSERNAME \AppData\Roaming\SpreadCoin folder and named spreadcoin.conf and then you need to restart the wallet, also make sure that you have downloaded the block information before trying to run a miner. You can find an example settings for the config file below if you haven’t solo mined yet and this will be the first coin that you try and don’t forget to set the username and password in the miner config to be the same and also allow any additional IP addresses or a range that will be connecting to the wallet:

    rpcuser=username
    rpcpassword=password
    rpcallowip=127.0.0.1
    rpcallowip=192.168.0.*
    rpcport=41677
    port=41678
    gen=0
    server=1

yes did that. But how can i tell for sure if my hash is going to my wallet.

It will look as on the pic above when running. When you find a block it will say "yah" in the cmd and you get a little pop-up from the wallet notifying you got the block.

? if it wasn't, the miner would tell "connection failed or something similar"

thank you djm  thats all i want to know

just released the 1.5.0 (fixed heavy on linux this night)

thread: https://bitcointalk.org/?topic=770064

[djm34]

Can anyone name some CUDA mineable altcoins that have had a successful launch recently and actually achieved a decent market capitalization?

may-be you could have a look to bytecent, it is another prime number based coin.
The coin is a scam (well the dev is a known scammer) so this really isn't for the long term.
(I don't think they have opensourced anything... and the thread are locked so nobody can insult the scammer  )

Happy Thanksgiving!  A holiday for the harvest here in the USA.  I am mining with two 6-card 750ti rigs, and receiving 13680-13880 khash/s per rig with x13.  The error rate is really low compared to the early ccminer v1.2 variants, now 1-2% vs 10-15%.

How do you use the new API?  Perhaps you need a readme for the new interface.       -scryptr

EDIT:  I found the "API and Monitoring" instructions in the README.txt.  I have been able to connect, and run single commands, to my headless mining rigs.  However, the connection closes after each successful command.  Is this intended?

Basically, if you use the command "-b 0.0.0.0:4068" on your launch string, you can telnet to your localnet rig on port 4068.  Without the "-b" string above, localhost only access is allowed.  You can set the port differently, also, with the "-b" string.  When connected, typing "help" gives a list of API commands.

Thanks again.       -scryptr

-b <port> for local only or -b <ip:port> for remote access from the network (0.0.0.0 means all ips)

ccminer version 1.2

So I run into this error every now and then

"unable to query CUDA driver version! Is an nVidia driver Insatalled?"

I tracked it down to the file heavy.cu

if (err != cudaSuccess)
{
applog(LOG_ERR, "Unable to query CUDA driver version! Is an nVidia driver installed?");
exit(1);
}


i would like to  to bypass the above by simply hardcoding the CUDA driver version that I have.
However I have no idea on how to compile windows binaries.
Can someone help me .?

Turns out ... you cannot kickstart the ccminer from remote desktops coz ...the NVIDIA backend is not accessible remotely .. that is really strange ..

use chrome remote desktop

I use teamviewer. My mining rig has only ethernet and power going into it, no keyboards or displays

I've learnt my lesson in the past. Do not use Remote Desktop! Most other options will do, although I prefer Teamviewer.

Christian (and others), a suggestion:

How about merging sp_'s and tpruvot's threads with this one, and updating the OP a bit to highlight other contributers since April 2013? I'll ask the same in their threads.

One CCminer thread would be much easier to follow then several as the case is now. It would also be cool to have the history of CCminer in the OP.

[sp_]

Run with the latest NVIDIA driver. (.75). All my rigs have 4gb of ram should be enough (windows 7 64bit).

If you lower the intensity the miner will use less memory. Try -i 18.

Guys and Girls , Ive reached a good offer for a model of INTEL Xeon Phi 31S1P. They've launched a promotional offer here :

I'm considering buying couple of pcs. What is your opinion of it...

Interesting offer, but this is a passively cooled card and you will have to have a server type case that provides the correct airflow. Seems that Intel wants to get rid of some hardware stock that no one wants to buy  Also it seems they have already sold off all cards?

Your mainboard needs to be able to map 8 GB of 64 bit PCIe address space correctly. Lots of consumer mainboards might not be able to do this, as consumer graphics cards typically map a small address window (e.g. 256 MB) into 32 bit address space.

There is no crypto mining software available for these cards. If you are able to program, you might still be able to pull off something interesting with these cards. We could team up, as I have an Intel SC3120A card that is currently unused.

This promo is till the end of December 2014. Then they'll price up the model and who ordered now would be pleaced. I and friend of my already ordered some pcs of it , and the will arrive on 18th of December. I know about the promo because Im related to the local Intel Distri.. Maybe we could find some guys to recompile some mining software. So Im always OK to team up. You have some experience with this type of cards...

you could have someone build a liquid cooled solution for you maybe. if they have extra stock..couldn't hurt to ask: http://asetek.com/press-room/news/2012/asetek%C2%AE-liquid-cools-intel%C2%AE-xeon-phi-coprocessors.aspx
