EWBF's CUDA Zcash miner

[Temporel]

I'm currently reaching 800 Sols with 265watts (with 1080ti, 1999 Core, 5899 Mem, 981mv)

How many hours can you run it without crashing? This looks like the 1080Ti unicorn, no offense.

I run 4 1080Ti in 2 computers and they never crash, same for my 1080 and 1070s.

I'm asking the 800 sols guy with only 260w, that's either a 0.1% lucky silicon or a lie.

Nice. Temperature ?

Currently 64c while ambient is 25. Fanspeed is at 75%

My record is 5 days when i was taking a 7 day trip and wasn't home. I do use my PC actively so it crashes about every other day from using something like google maps .

Edit: Did a bit of testing and it seems like my other 1080ti can do the same, only with almost 20 watts more, but i run into thermal problems because of the cards' close proximity to each other. these are the MSI 1080ti Gaming X'ses.

Last night i put --fee 0 and in 24 hours i got about 5% less shares. It is true that it is better to leave dev fee as i see.

Yes, I believe EWBF codes the mining fee much the same way as Claymore, in that you are free to remove the fee but the program will run a little bit less efficiently. Thus in the end you are better off just paying the small fee and letting the miner run at its most optimized levels (as coded by the programmer). There are a few open source software implementations out there that come close, but you are usually on your own to try and get the same level of performance out of them as the fee based ones. After all, there is a reason people are willing to pay the fee.

Hi,
Yesterday while i was sleeping hashrate drops 0 and the rig was keeping mining.
Is there any solution when rig not getting sol restart rig automatically?

I am using simplemining and zcash.flypool
Thanks.

Its all ok for me , great work very stable all time .

You can try my solution which restarts miner when speed drops below limit:

hi all - just wiped and installed fresh copy of win7 64-bit - installed drivers/cuda, did windows updates, copied over ewbf miner, installed afterburner, run miner - detects 3x 1060gtx cards, instead of selecting solver, entire thing freezes.  any ideas??? am i missing something?  mainboard has latest bios. using current cuda and nvidia drivers.

@EWBF_ could you please add timestamp to error messages?
both --log 1 and 2 would be much more useful with timestamps, otherwise the error messages are a bit out of context

TIMESTAMP IS A NEEDED FEATURE--

I totally agree with cTnko!  I also suggest that the web-API report number of restarts in the second column, next to the "uptime", with the "connected" indicators above and below.

You have a very good API display, thanks!       --scryptr

Thank you for reply,
i am using app from simplemining.net loging at this side has only one line to edit parameters i can not run exe files also.

Sory for my English.

Hey guys, is this safe to use? I need something like this very much but have not seen any validations so far. If it's legit i'll let it run with dev's address for some time. Thanks

you should try to fix your problem instead.

Thanks for your advice. Im trying to, but get nowhere. My 3 1080 TIs trouble me, had them running for 7 days straight, now in the last 3 days they have stopped 5 times without me having changed anything (except your afterburner hint come to think of it, but that can't be it). It kinda sucks to wake up to idling machines...

it crash even with the default Afterburner settings ? What drivers are you using ?

Have you tried the --eexit 1 parameter with a simple :start, goto start loop in a batch file? It did wonders for me when i was trying to find a stable long time running overclock.

make sure that you delete the .cgf file in the folder. If you loose connection to the pool the miner will mine on the dev adress.

Thanks for the tip, all set up and running for both rigs. Now it's time to wait and see!
