hey there
just ran into mining and tried a few different miners.
so i wanted to give SG Miner a try since its said to have the highes hashrate - couldnt manage it - is there a step by step tut or somethin?
then i went on with XMRig which works just fine so far
Then i tried XMR stak CPU with works out fine for my cpu. After that i decided to give the GPU version a try. - which is a little bit better then xmrig
The newest version of XMR Stak though is far worse then everything else. CPU and GPU (mining simultaneously) are slower then if i just use the old XMR stak nvidia and XMR stak CPU in 2 different instances.
Got 2 older GTX 970 GPUS which i OC a little bit - 1000 H/s shouldnt be a big deal but at this point i just cant make it
Is there something like a blockchain driver for nvidia ?
Is there something like a bios mod for my GPUS that makes em a little faster ?
is there something im missing with the miner? (im currently on 16 threads and 64 blocks with seems to be the best setting so far)
i tried to activate compute mode but its not possible in my nvidia control panel. is there a workaround ?
best regards

Only AMD is slower on new XMR-STAK, but they will fix it. Nvidia should be faster, but it uses different config from older Nvidia version.
GTX 970 would never have 1000 H/s... not even 1070 can do that...
Use Nvidia CUDA toolkit drivers. No bios mods for Nvidia... you should mine something else with your cards. If you want to mine XMR with Nvidia get some Pascals.
Any info about Monero mining using FPGAs?
It should be possible, but you have to write your own miner.
