EWBF's CUDA Zcash miner

[bensam1231]

As far as what my AMD and NVidia hardware was doing between "profitable mining" timeframes, I'm a VERY long-term participant in the distributed.net project (where AMD dominates) and a fairly long-term participant in Folding@Home (where NVidia dominates). Most of the hardware I mined Scrypt with before ASIC took over was repurposed from dnet work, and the money I earned from that Scrypt work mostly went into funding more AMD card purchases intended for later DNet work (which worked out nicely).

funny how some folks think of gpus as only money makers, game cards or obsolete.

f@h got use of a lot of my crypto cards as some coins dried up. and vise versa of course as new coins popped in.

So you piss away electricity to non-profits? Most people live in the real world where they can't afford to do that. You must have a pretty healthy job to do that, so congrats to you. Not sure why you're mining in the first place if that's the case.

Definitely !!
I've been watching it all day. Between 2 and 5 o'clock in the morning

3 x he is scrapped


Something is wrong with the miner !

I'll keep a eye on this. It should show up in my global hashrate. I noticed a weird decrease earlier where I lost about 13% of my hashrate (extra 10%) for 30min, but I wasn't mining between 2-5am on this miner yesterday. I thought it was a connectivity issue.

It would be hilarious if after I mentioned earlier in the thread that it's hard to see a increase in dev fee usage if a dev is skimming he got the bright idea to try it. I'm sure being the bright developer he is, if he gets caught doing that it's going to almost completely kill the credibility of his miner. -_-

Not Yesterday ! Today in this Morning in Germany ✌️

About devfee. Let me explain. First miner calculate devfee by iterations he make 10000 for you and then 200 for devfee. Miner maintain two connection one for you pool second for devfee pool. If you loose connection with your server devfee connection can be working and when time is come it works and you see only devfee shares because your connection is dead but when timeout is reached connection with your server restored and work again be normal. Second is difficulty on devfee pool and your pool. you can find 1 share for your time and devfee can find 3 share for his time.

lokko You probably use first version 0.0.5b because it contain a bug with cards numbers, all your devfee shares have a GPU0. in your case it must be GPU0 and GPU1. Try download again from links in first post.

For everybody please download miner only from first post of this topic!

@EWBF_
After any connection problem between miner and pool (for example internet connection lost) miner begins to mine devfee and it mines too much time then 2 percent.

It depends on precise of timer. It possible happen only if you lost connection and your system have a precise timer. I have changed this behavior and include it in the next version. With new algo devfee not be work when not working your pool. And no, when connection restored miner must work normal.

I have 10 X gtx 1070, As you see mining means has much value then hobby and also if you have an income from this project you have important responsebilities to user who use your miner. I hope you publish to fix this problem as possible as you can. Because both side must respect each other.

Hi Määään :-)


Thank you for your answer. I downloaded the Miner directly from this address when he was only 1 minute out )

Now I downloaded It again from this address: https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B9EPp8NdigFianNlcUh0YWFhOVE

I think he will.

Hi EWBF - I just discovered your miner today! I have a GTX 1070. Witha core overclock of 75 and a memory overclock of 600 i get 350sol/s!!

That's amazing to me.  Best I had done on that card before was about 130sol/s.

I have a couple of AMD rigs that do about 2400sol/s using Claymore but I had actually switched them to Monero. Adding the 1070 just bumps me back to profitable so I'm mining ZEC again. Thanks!

I will be watching closely so keep on making this better! I wish you luck and I hope the ZEC price doesn't crash too low so you can keep making some money from your miner. You obviously have good skills and I would guess Claymore has make LOTS from his miners.

You have made Nvidia competitive again! Awesome work!

270 sols with Gigabyte 1070 G1

I have a Gigabyte G1 gaming 1070 and with a core OC of 75, mem OC of 600 I get 350sol/s

yeah but check consumption you are probably way above 100watt, and using power limit at 60-70%...

[tc61]

Amp, what are your settings on your 1070? I would like to try yours, I still am burning more energy than I should.

55% 120 core 400 mem 323 sol/100watt, but i have seen a better result(320 sol 90 watt only) from a guy with 50% tdp +20mv(voltage), 600+ mem and core was 100 i think, i don't remember now

core should reach 1800

What are "some older cards" you mean 900 series?

What are "some older cards" you mean 900 series?

Compute Capability 2.x, 3,x and maybe 5.0.

So no impact on the 1070 at all?

Small changes in the solver is a few percent faster on Linux on windows not. I said about 1070 and 1060.

Confirmed. Nice work!!

6x1070

Code:

GPU0: 350 Sol/s GPU1: 362 Sol/s GPU2: 374 Sol/s GPU3: 362 Sol/s GPU4: 363 Sol/s GPU5: 366 Sol/s 
Total speed: 2177 Sol/s

can you push it to 400 sol for a 1070(no oc)? there is still room for improvements?
