What you would folks say are the best clocks for 1070 and a 1080? I want to get the most hashing power while saving on electricity. (Electric costs are high for me.)
If your electricity costs are high, best keep @50% tdp, that's what i do, any other combo just isn't enough profitability. for OC settings, you would probably have to do your own testing, because each card is different depending on design, makers, making and so on. My own settings atm and im still working on them, is +135 core / +575 mem @50% tdp +20% vCore (6x EVGA FTW 1070 micron chip memory) yielding about 375sols/s each for 92w each in nvidia-smi, whole rig consuming 695w (cpu, mobo, fans, and psu efficiency in play). I also run with 3 ewbf process, 2x cards per process for maximum efficiency (i have to test with lower amount of process since ewbf made changes in 0.0.7b, to see if it's as efficient running only one or 2 process, would save a few watts, will see that this week-end) Those are just general settings, you would have to make your own testings to find the sweetest spot Hey, thanks for the above. That's in line with my 1070. Any thoughts on the 1080? You can bring the tdp down to 37% and I know the memory is different.

Hi everybody!
A couple of answers to your questions: Expected speed ~360 on stock 1070 ~250 on stock 1060 Stability, miner now work with "intensity" it better utilize gpu and as result it can make strong overclock less stable. DevFee, miner works for devfee 2% of time. But difficulty on devfee pool can be significantly lower or higher than on your pool.
It would be good, if would be intensity param, to fine tune cards. That would be nice. I've been waiting for that for a long time.. intensity setting.

I tried the 0.8b on my gtx 580 rig and it detects the card unlike before where it would just say no supported card detected, now it does 0 sol/s. Just letting you know if this release was intended to work with Cuda 2.0 devices it ain't working with 5 series cards.
Thanks,

I would like to integrate this miner into multipoolminer for miningpoolhub as done with Claymore's miner.
An api is needed for benchmarking/monitoring. Please can you advise if you have an api to read the hashrate whilst mining? If not, would you be able to add one?

Thanks,
Well just tried on my 650 GTX and it runs.. a massive 13 kh/s but it works FYI this miner is as fast/faster then latest Nicehash EQM miner does uses 2 threads.. Icon

Icon It works but don't expect great things since he's using Cuda 8, even Maxwell runs better with cuda7.5 or 6.5. As my GT 730 gets the same amount of hashes as your GTX 650

I don't own any, so sadly no input , i know from what i read in the thread that it perform even better than 1070, so you should do testing

EWBF are you interested in making more money? Cryptonote (Monero is Cryptonote) is another really big algo with a lot of volume and miners. It hasn't been improved in a really long time. Currently the public Nvidia miner is pretty mediocre. If you want to take a look at it, it's a potential for you to earn a lot more money, if you can improve it.
Not sure how much or if it can be improved, but there is very little competition there and it's definitely stagnated.

I buy private Nvidia miners. Send information and/or inquiries to my PM box.

Have you tried the cuda 8 version of tsiv ccminer by KlausT ? it's far better than what basic tsiv can give you (i do 4200h XMR with 6x1070 rig but i can't max it out using 100w less @50tdp than zcash), zcash is still more interesting, but it could become a good contender when zcash drop , i agree that XMR gpu mining could/should be improved. Interesting query. I wonder why claymore isn't working more with nvidia... EWBF when you planning add coinotron?
For my personnal knowledge what is the issue with coinotron pool, that would need special support ?

thanks @EWBF_ for providing us with this nice piece of software! 007b was running smoothly on my linux machines on stock clock-speeds (gtx 750ti, gtx 970, gtx980) and so does 008b (alas not yet tested with the 750ti) with nvidia driver 375.20! running multiple instances on ewbf v 008b doesn't increase my sol-rate on any of the cards but rather decreases by 5-7%, have not tried that with 007b so i cannot compare. what kept me wondering a bit however is that my gtx 980 is not performing too well compared to my gtx 970 at the same power-levels (150W) and difficulty (64). running 2 threads on each yields to: gtx970@150W -> 2 * 105 sol/s == 210 sol/s -> 1.40 sol/W gtx980@150W -> 2 * 109 sol/s == 218 sol/s -> 1.45 sol/W of course the gtx980 runs cooler and if i set a higher power-cap it clearly beats the gtx970 in sol/s reaching ~257 sol/s (@230W -> 1.12 sol/W) or ~250 sol/s (@210W -> 1.19 sol/W) or ~246 sol/s (@190W -> 1.30 sol/W) or ~236 sol/s (@170W -> 1.39 sol/W) but has a considerably lower efficiency (sol/W) than my gtx970. as environmental aspects are a concern for me i wonder what may be the cause for the gtx980's weak efficiency. any ideas? my gtx970 reaches even > 1.50 sol/W when setting a power-limit < 120W and i'm quite happy with that. that maybe has nothing to do with EWBF-miner directly but never the less might be of interest for some ps: power-cap set and power-usage read through nvidia-smiEDIT: i have no clue how to choose ZEC-difficulty but know that typical video-card-ranges are somewhere around 64-256. can anybody give me a hint how to choose a good difficulty? i think i remember having come across some guide or article regarding this but simply cannot remember where this was and search-engines are of not much help either...

Interesting query. I wonder why claymore isn't working more with nvidia... Good idea but unfornately TSIV CCminer don't support cryptonote/XMR algo :-(. Edit : so, there is an old version of TSIV CCMiner specific to cryptonote, I'll refound it... Edit 2 : I refund the github repository of specific TSIV specific Cryptonote CCMiner : no news sinc 3 years... Where have you seen a cuda 8 version ?

I do not believe that a 1070 can only do 700 at the moment

Usually pools adjust difficulty against your hashing power. Some pools allow you to choose it like flypool. A little guideline taken from zcash page on dwarfpool 128 for one videocard 512 for rigs with 2-4 cards 1024 for rigs with >=5 cards cheers

Version 0.0.7 gives me 270-275 sol/s per GTX 1060 @ 100W each, almost 15% increase. Thanks EWBF!
Power limit at 85% / core +180 / memory +540. Almost the same with 0.0.8 (+/- 2%).

Can someone share specific powersave values for 1070 ? I can't seem to make it use less than 150W and the fans must spin 80% constant to keep temps below 70C. Thank you. MSI Armor 1070 8G Non OC version.
