EWBF's CUDA Zcash miner

[reb0rn21]

Anyone on a WiFi connection, My router freezes after an hour or two after mining and the only new thing is this miner! What could be the issue? It was working for months ok?

never trust a wifi, for me it worked with one AP , with 2x AP it was mayhem ....

Hey,

Very nice miner, work out pretty good.

6 x GTX 1070 EVGA FTW @1800:4400 / +30% vcore / 50% PowerLimit (690W on wall about 100w per card) / ~260sols per card.

Pretty stable, switched to 0.0.3b as soon as you published, but it crashed twice after a moment, rebooted to be sure, running it now.

Using dwarfpool - W10 AE x64 - Nvidia 375.70

Features request

- restart/watchdog demon
- Linux release (asked alot lol)
- Remote console (i noticed a --port 3333 in example bat files what's it's for ?)
- logging
- -h option to know the switchs
- how to add a worker/email
- pretty much everything that's trendy now (intensity, per gpu settings, temps)

Keep up the good work, very nice job

EDIT : After a few more try, the 0.0.3b really crashes alot, rollbacked to 0.0.2b

i'm getting 235 sols with gtx 980 ti but it crashes

How do you change the Vcore with EVGA card? I have tried all kinds of versions of software and it is locked everywhere. Once i go TDP under 55% i cannot go over 1600MHZ on the GPU.

Hey i use MSI afterburner because EVGA tool isn't good and also don't support 6x gpu's only 4x you can with it either set % of added vcore for stability or do your own vcore curve for stability during automatic throttling of gpu frequency, in afterburner option you have voltage unlock, it'll let you play with them after that

EW:  with the new version 0.3:

GTX1080 ran about 2 hours and then:

This is what happened to me with 0.2 version, but now it works fine for quite long hours.

[xxcsu]

Version 0.0.3b released.
Fixed some situations where a miner stopped, and did not do anything

it would be great if you can post all the update information , change logs with dates in your first post of this topic

[jiggytom]

Can you slowly initialize the GPUs when starting the miner? I have a rig that craps out immediately when I run the miner, right after boot.  But if i run a different miner (LBRY cuda miner) for a minute, and then turn yours on, it works.

[tbearhere]

with the 2 instances trick, 1700 core, 4300 mem, 55 tdp, i get 255 sol per gpu(1070) at 700 watt total, whole system with 3 fan 14mm, each gpu is hashing at 100watt

fucking efficient above 2:1 ratio

I'm getting 270 s/s on my 1070 75% tdp... mem +400...core 1950.

Amph are you talking about 2 instances with 1 worker or 2 with separate workers?

[reelen]

Getting 300~ sols with GTX 1080, not a crash in 4+ hours.

How do you get 1700 core at such low TDP? My card always falls to 1550 with high OC.

your core is set at +120?

+196. With more OC the card starts to be unstable. Also for me it does not seem that three instances do better than two

yeah same, 3 is not better than two, it's worse or on par at best

dunno about the core maybe it's because of the model, i have g1 gaming

I think it depends on what cpu you have. With powerful cpu it can be good enough to run 2 instances but I have lousy Athlon x2 socket am2))

Yes..I have some 750ti's and on a 2 core I get 25 s/s...on a 4 core I get 50 s/s.
I think he can get it up to 65 s/s.

Hi I don't see where you can add command  -h  and intensity.  Is the intensity command -i  ?  Thx

I'm pulling in 12 sol/s on a gt 730, compute 3.5

All I can say is, thank you so very much for making it possible to mine this; all other Zcash miners wouldn't work on my card in cuda mode. I was only able to get them working in open CL, doing a pathetic 1-2 sol/s.

Huge shame that this wasn't out when earnings would have been decent, but massive thanks still for giving older cards like mine something to work with finally.

try disable UPNP on the router, most home router's UPNP implementations are beyond bad

[bensam1231]

Looks like stability on 0.3b is quite a bit better then earlier versions.

Curiously is there anyway you can check whether or not this miner is OCL or CUDA?

I would be surprised for it to be OpenCL, CUDA algo always work alot better on nvidia cards than OpenCL.

As you can see it's cuda-based (little C in the type column), also dev say so in his topic title

Hi I don't see where you can add command  -h  and intensity.  Is the intensity command -i  ?  Thx

they can be added as switch  for the program, miner.exe -h would give the help  with the list of switch & how to use etc..., -i or -mi could be intensity and so on, could take examples on current other miners

v0.0.3b seems good no more share rejects.

how can you reach 1800 core with only 50% tdp, when i'm at 1720 with 55%? it's because you increase the voltage? what is the voltage that is displayed?

BTW OP is this miner based on clymore, i see the same color and scheme for the hashing display...
