[ANN] dstm's ZCash / Equihash Nvidia Miner v0.6.2 (Linux / Windows)

Can someone post results for 1080ti with dual core cpu?Would be nice to know how cpu heavy it is

It's impossible to run a rig with multiple 1080ti's using an old dual core cpu. You might be able to do it with a modern one though.

EDIT: ***ON WINDOWS

All of my rigs stopped after about 17 working hours. I'm not sure how to fix this:"Application zm.exe has been blocked from accessing Graphics hardware".

I can't get this miner to work on Win10 at all.  I've tried many different settings.  No luck.


zm_win_0.5.2\zm --server zen.suprnova.cc --port 3618 --user myuser.mywoker --pass x
(obviously i replace myuser and myworker with my own stuff)

and i get this:
#  GPU0 connected to: zen.suprnova.cc:3618
connect failed: 10061

same thing for zcash.

zm_win_0.5.2\zm>zm --server us1-zcash.flypool.org --port 3333 --user mywallet.myrigname --pass x
#  GPU0 connected to: us1-zcash.flypool.org:3333
connect failed: 10061


i just keep getting these 10061 errors.

Nice work! How does it perform on lower power usage settings (like around 70 percent limit mark). I've got expensive electricity and trying to find the 'sweet spot' so to speak.

[induktor]

induktor,

card: 1 x1080 Ti
...
Hash rate at top efficiency: 600 Sols average  (15 Sols more than EWBF miner)
...

Is it a joke or a mistake? 1080Ti should give u from 750 to 790 sol (in OC mode) and from 695 to 750 (in non-OC mode) on EWFB. What 600 Sol/s are u talking about, man?

Top eficiency means, maximum hashrate at the lowest possible power usage (hash/Watts)
unless you don't pay for electricity, i pay a fortune for power, so i keep my miners at top efficiency all the time to get maximum profit.

At least so far is what i got, still have to test other drivers/miners, but everything so far points to 600 Sols at 140 watts (155 at the wall)

yes, sure, I posted before, the rig with 4x1080ti and G4560 is working on windows 10
it shows like 730-740 sol/s per card,  a little low comparing to ewbf, but I guess that's cause of the cpu, in fact it should push around 770-790  if pared with properly overclocked and good 4core cpu
and all is working stable, just speed is a little low

@dstm: First of all thanks for your hard work.

Secondly, your miner started erroring out after a few hours please see below. Any ideas?

[Kayfolom]

Please add miner uptime in telemetry.
How can I get a json via http?

I agree with efficiency being a huge factor specially when power is expensive. That being said, how’d you manage a 1080Ti to pull only 140W? Can’t go below 200W on my strix oc’s..

This seems to happen when the GPU driver crashes.                                                                             
Are your GPUs overclocked?                                                                                                     
Did zm report any errors?

Do you block some ports?

Thx for reporting, this is a bug - will be fixed in next release.

[dstm]

Uptime: it was already requested, will add.

Json-rpc isn't transferred on top of http.

I have problems when i try miner with HUSH on pool.miningspeed.com with my 1070 rigs.
When i start the miner it says [20, "invalid solution XX"] as XX is number between 28-32.

Funny thing is that it works great on suprnova when i try it there.
Maybe its something with the pool config or its the miner, but i want to report it anyway.

I'm able to reproduce this.                                                                                                   
Looks like a bug on the server side to me.

[davidsuswanto]

try from ewbf avg 2700sol and now 2900sol on dstm! good works!

[djazher]

48 hours running straight, so far so good.

On top of the hashrate improvement, I find the global hashrate more stable. Less differences per round. With EWBF, I was getting highs @7.6Ksols/s and lows @5.8Ksols/s. Not sure if it has to be put on ZM's credit, but it's a fact.

Another suggestion, same as with EWBF, it would be pretty nice to have an option for TDP per GPU. If it's useless to almost all experienced users, it's always good to have that information handy in a single window, not having to run NVIDIA-SMI. And it does impress my girlfriend, who thinks I'm a computer mastermind ¨^^¨

[Supercoiner111]

this is interesting some mixed results from the replies, I will test this when I get back....

[akuci]

It's still a bit CPU heavy since I use my CPUs to mine VRM or XMG at the same time, so DSTM might consider fixing that, or minimizing the CPU usage atleast.

[srgmnr]

I am trying to test zm on debian
BUT:

$./zm
./zm: /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libcrypto.so.1.0.0: version `OPENSSL_1.0.0' not found (required by ./zm)
./zm: /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libssl.so.1.0.0: version `OPENSSL_1.0.0' not found (required by ./zm)

what I should to fix?

BTW
I have already made links
#ln -n libcrypto.so.1.1 libcrypto.so.1.0.0
#ln -n libssl.so.1.1 libssl.so.1.0.0

Miner seems to produce around 4% increase in hash rate.
However, on one of my machines the miner crashes and exits without trace.
A log function would be great.
