NiceHash EQM Zcash NVIDIA optimized miner [Maxwell/Pascal] + CPU mining v1.0.4c

[bensam1231]

Not sure if this is going to get answered, but will Nicehash continue to work on the miner regardless of competition? I assume these updates are in spite of competitors such as EWBF, who offers very similar hashrate only it's not pool locked and has a 2% fee.

I still think Nicehash should release their miner with either a 2% fee or has to be used on their pool.

There already is a fee on Nicehash. Whenever you withdraw (well, its automatic anyway) they get a fee which is greater than the transaction fee and 2% combined.
For example, last payment for me was about 0.013 btc with a fee of about 40k sat.
I can justify 10k sat for transaction but the rest of it is mining fee pure and simple.

They probably earn alot more that the 3% fee they bill you, with all thoses alt/btc coin they can use on the market since the payout are pretty far apart for non-pro miners. So i highly doubt they would ever release this miner without it being locked

Stock 1070 will not be able to reach 400, but we have some good news for 1080 owners: Stock 1080 speeds are over 400.

Good to know we were right. Good I restocked my GTX1080 farm with plenty new cards for cheap..let me fire them.

Also looks like we will have a new efficiency champ - GTX 1080; with overclocked memory and TDP set to 50%, it produces 410 Sols and consumes around 110 W.

Well, not a champ if the price is considered though. New 1070s regularly sell for less than $400, and new 1080s are $550+. That's like 35%+ difference. And what's the difference in hashrate between them? With 1.0.3 I'm getting 325 sol at 100W from my 1070s (and could do a bit better with fine tweaking, just don't want to bother) @ ~1900/4250. Even if the new EQM miner brings it only up to 350 sol, the difference between 1070 and 1080 is 350 vs 410 or ~ 17% more hashrate from 35% more expensive card. It's great that 1080 is faster now, but still not fast enough considering its price.

Why always complain instead of being thankful and enjoy..i so much hate this negative tone.
You are even worse than Germans complaining.

So Titan X Pascal should do over 500? Currently it does 430...

Perhaps, very near, don't have one to test.

I have 2 currently Waiting for the release

It's just math, not complaining. I don't see any "negative tone" in my post, and your racist bit isn't even worth addressing. And there's nothing to be thankful about, it's not like they release their stuff open source: they run a business with hefty fees, and releasing updated miner software is their way to keep miners connected to Nicehash. If there'd be no competition (EWBF etc) there'd be no updates. They're pretty much the only ones that profit from these updated miners. As soon as it's released and others start using new versions, global hashrate = difficulty goes up and total earnings for miners go down or stay the same at best.

[NiceHashSupport]

There are maybe 10-20% of NVIDIA miners. What you are competing is basically AMD and Claymore. With no CUDA competition, we would be still pushing updates to this miner.

[_ZET_]

Definitely right diretion.

I can see niche on NVDIA's field.  Hope you will develop and become number1 on this field. 1070 works excellent so far.

Dude I am German..so I am racist because I am just honest and telling and compare your complaints and "motzen" with our typical German life?I am selfracist - or racist against my own folk..oh shit I have to sue my self being a German German racist.
 Wow..you have no clue man and no sense for some humor. I am not racist sorry to disappoint you.

BTW are you going to implement 24h Avg hashrate per worker - it will be easier to monitor per multiple rigs to see if any given rig is acting strange?

Mmm nice to know. Nicehash must've commissioned a dev specifically for Equihash development? Do you guys have multiple devs working on Equihash or just one?

Consider gobbling up EWBF at some point.

Can we expect any improvements for maxwell 980 or 750 in the next version?

Thanks.. getting 418 sols/s out of overclocked 1070

EQM v1.0.4a ^NEW

Wow! 435Sol/s on my 1070 - great work!
