but it is nice to see there is still some space for speed improvements.  i hope EWBF will be able to do some changes. |

Bitcoin mining is now a specialized and very risky industry, just like gold mining. Amateur miners are unlikely to make much money, and may even lose money. Bitcoin is much more than just mining, though!

Yes, it can be reached maybe another 10% of performance, but that means doing hardcore SASS coding, taking care of each instruction you place. Not something that can be achieved by a newbie that just started CUDA previous week. What he did was reduce bucket sizes, removed (or changed) some synchronizations and the result is high local speed, low pool speed and memory errors due to incorrect synchronization. |

I am using my home PC to do zcash mining. As a standalone sound card was also installed along GTX 1070 VGA card, I have to disable HDM sound card in GTX 1070. However sometimes there is no sound when watching online video, and sometimes there is a hash sound and the system hangs.
Anymore knows how to solve this problem?

If the sound is going over HDMI, (which I assume frome where you stated you had to "disable HDM sound card in GTX 1070" then use a different connection for your display other than HDMI if you can (like display-port) and if there is a separate standalone sound card, use whatever audio outputs it has which match whatever amp/speaker system you are using. If you are using the display's speakers there should be a separate analog or digital audio input on it somwhere because I don't think display-port sends audio. I am using a big T.V. which receives video via hdmi from my gtx 1070 but the audio comes from a spdif output and goes to the spdif input of my speakers. Then I just have to choose that audio output when I click on the little speaker in the bottom right (task bar) of Windows. |
Crypto currency enthusiast and miner since 2015. Mined approx 200 ETH during 2016 and 2017 and sold it at approximately $US40 each. Then I watched it reach $1000+ each. If anyone bothers to read this stuff pay attention to this: HODL HODL HODL HODL HODL HODL
I started mining with 1 AMD 7950 and 1 R9-280X. Then I gradually built my AMD operation into 12 R9-290s. Awesome ETH hash but ridiculous power consumption and heat. Over the last year I defected to the Nvidia team. I now use GTX 1070s. They were expensive to buy (probably a bargain now) but awesome hash rate vs. power consumption. blah blah blah blah

I am using a LED monitor, the output of sound was chosen to be the standalone sound card which is smoothly sometimes especially when I play video file on the hard disk, but if I played online movie, sometimes there was no sound, and after a while the sound returned back if lucky, otherwise the PC hangs with very large constant hash sound. |

no more boost for this? i see that other 10% increase is possible if you squeeze more out of the code, other dev in other thread like sp have 10% more hashrate with their private miner

hey, where can i monitor my progress? previously i am monitoring progress from dashboard zcash.flypool (amd card). but i build a new mining rig(gtx 1080), but when i check flypool for my 1080, my unpaid balance remain the same, only immature balance is changing. or there is any platform where i can monitor or track the progress for my 1080? thanks |

I've been using Linux with EWBF 0.3.3b, and it needs to be rebooted every 12+ hours or so. All the cards drop down to 0 Sol/s, and it takes a hard boot to clear things.
As a result, I've started to tinker with Win 10 Enterprise ver 1703 (latest). My motherboard is an Asrock H81 Pro v2 with 16GB of RAM. I've run 4+ AMD cards in this board with Linux. In Win10, I'm getting a 'code 43' when I add in a second card (geforce 1080 Ti).
I've turned off everything I can in the BIOS, and I've tried gen1 and auto for the PCI settings. I've also cleared CMOS. Nothing seems to allow me to use the second card.
I really don't want to continue using Linux (well I do but the care and feeding of a hard reboot at random times is annoying). Any ideas on how to get more cards accepted by the BIOS/OS?

to be precise the private miner is 13% faster but price is steep only for big farms.... |

Hello,everyone!
The fact of recent shortage of RX470s and the increased power consumption of RX5xx series forced me to build my new rig with Nvidia 1060s. I'm sorry about my noob question but do i need CUDA package and Visual Studio installed on the PC to run this miner properly?I didn't install these and the miner keeps stop working after few hours ,sometime even minutes so i thought that might be the case.The program is running but the card shows 0 sols and it's colored in red.I'm using the latest Nvidia drivers and 0.3.3b Miner.The card is my PCs Nvidia 780Ti.Windows 10 Pro. Thanks!

Any info about old 780, 780ti performance in this miner?
142-146 sols without overclocking ,around 160-165 with. Palit Jetstream 780ti.Power consumption is huge 250W. I don't recommend it for mining .I'm just testing how to do mining with Nvidia cards.Any info about my questions?Do i need CUDA 8.0 installed for Nvidia mining or just drivers?Which drivers should i use? |

Anyone get the slowdown issue? I'm getting around 335-340 sol/s here with a palit gtx 1060 6gb (+90MHz core/780+MHz mem OC, running at 67-69C) but sometimes when I leave it for like 6+ hours it gets randomly slow down to 250~. restart my computer seems to solved it but pretty annoying tho when I have to monitor my PC like every hour.
