EWBF's CUDA Zcash miner

[Aexcu]

Hi, Miner only works through the stratum protocol. I think the easiest way is to use something like a stratum proxy.

Thanks for the quick answer. I've found only the ZCashProxy so far ( https://github.com/sammy007/zcash-proxy ). Anyone have other suggestions?

[...]I launched EWBF's miner and my power supply blew up right after the line (http://imgur.com/a/yeopU):

Code:

CUDA: Device: 0 Selected solver: 0

PSU was a Seasonic G-450. 450W should be enough for a single 1070 and a few idle HDD. I replaced the PSU with another 450W unit, removed the GTX 1070 and the computer booted normally.

Now before I try again with the new PSU, my question is: is it just bad luck I blew my PSU the moment I launched the miner, or did I miss something important?

Having used Seasonic PSUs for their reliability and quality for some years I'm a bit surprised to hear that your PSU failed right after putting load on your GPU. May I ask how long that PSU has been in use for already? As electronic components (especially power circuitry) wear out over time my guess is that this was merely bad luck and shouldn't have happened with a PSU that has not been used for years (even in lower power demand scenarios).

 Having used a lot of Seasonic PS over the years (including some G-series), I have to say that even Seasonic has an occasional "infant mortality" issue.

 Plus side - if it's infant mortality, you generally have no issue getting a quick exchange through the dealer you bought it through.


 A G-450 should be plenty for a single 1070 based rig - I've a couple of 2-card rigs running on the G-550 (though one of those is a pair of HD 7870, but the power draw of those cards is still 140+ watts each running MooWrapper and highly overclocked) and my "go-to" supply for my 3-card 1070 rigs is the X-850.


 Ignore the Prime series though - Seasonic decided that they were going to prioritise "quiet" over "long term reliable" in those and went with a bloody SLEEVE BEARING fan instead of their long-standing use of double ball bearing fans.

sometimes.

what are all your msi afterburner settings?

tdp = ?

core = ?

memory = ?

fan = ?

what is your nvidia card?

Hello, everyone! Guys, can you please help me out? I'm new and can't get my miner work properly.

All I want is miner to restart itself when its glitched or error occurred and miner stopped mining.
My miner setup:

miner --cuda_devices 0 1 2 3 --pec --server equihash.eu.nicehash.com --user wallet --pass x --port 3357 --log 2 --eexit 3

Wheres mistake? (

Last parameter should be --exit 3, looks like you have an extra e?

Hey dudes, trying to help a buddy configure a 1060 rig with three cards but he's having some trouble getting the second and third cards working.

Specs:
OS - Win7 64
Mobo - M5A97 LE R2.0
PSU - Corsair 1200W
Miner - 0.3.3b
Not sure on the drivers

I've tried to have him set --cuda_devices to 1 and 2 exclusively to test the cards individually and the miner crashed both times. Only card 0 is working. Also tried the standard switch the ports around, change risers, reinstall driver, etc. to no avail. Any advice? Are there any config, Windows or BIOS-specific settings that might need to be tweaked to get this working? Any advice is much appreciated.

whats up dudes, im trying to get my first mining rig going,
currently trying to test this on windows 10 64 bit system on my personal pc
wanted to check out zcash
using my best menatal fortitude ive gotten so far as
downloaded the file  Zec miner 0.3.3b
, extracted,
 and created a .bat

but im not sure what other settings to punch in besides my username which was the address i got off of poloniex.com

miner.exe --server us1-zcash.flypool.org:3333 --user t1R2urSb48RtF8C3tUR3KaSrzhHJzAb53hy.rig1 --pass x --port 3333 --cuda_devices 0 1 2

miner --server equihash.eu.nicehash.com --user wallet.rigname --pass x --port 3357 --log 2 --eexit 3 --cuda_devices 0 1 2 3 --pec

When working right, --eexit takes like 30 minutes to restart.

I guess that you used #1,2,3 slot. I believe That slot 1 is 1st GPU and that 2nd GPU would be 4th slot (black one) and the 3rd GPU, one of the 1x slot. Mosty the third one.
SO slot 1,4,3 I would try. (or 1,4,2)

Also check in Device Manager if all cards are detected and all drivers installed. ()

Hi, I have problem with this miner, sometime it's stuck in 0 sol how to auto restart the miner or PC if it happens?
What is the easiest way to use the api to monitor it?
Thank you

Dude, I am new to it, I managed to run the miner file on Linux x64 but I do not know where to edit the server ip and wallet address. There is only 2 file in the download, 1 is help and 1 is miner. Can some1 please teach me how to edit my wallet address?

Your download is incomplete. There should 10 files. You mod one of the .bat files.

I'm getting an error when i run my command in the terminal from the folder

"bash: permission denied"

./miner --server us1-zcash.flypool.org:3333 --user tmQiBF7UyGTDZk3XKEjg7eBJe3uUW7VYWia. --pass x --port 3333 --cuda_devices 0 1

what am i missing?

the folder only has a miner executable and a help file

i'm at a loss on what's wrong

help appreciated

this is linux running nvidia 980 classifieds

In the start.bat , how to restart PC if miner has problem because restart miner doesn't work?

In the start.bat , how to restart PC if miner has problem because restart miner doesn't work?

well the pc dosnt restart it'selve and there is normally no need to.
the miner will reconnect if it looses connection
use --eexit 1 to close the miner if it cannot restart the workers and run the start.bat again

  Hi there
What are the best settings for 1070 Pallit jetstream or gamerock flashed to gamerock premium?
I know there are many experimentators here with great experience. I have 450 sol and 170W. And that is not good result.
Notice: Pair of my cards cant handle flashed core clock with stable mining. It hangs and I forced to reduce core clock -30 to do it stable
Please give me advice and recommend settings for afterburner

if like that, how to auto run start.bat to restart the miner

it closing miner and after that in 30 minutes is should load it back? or it should close and start it immediately?
Right now my miner closing in like 5 minutes after error and does not start after.
