[GUIDE][AMD][NVIDIA][CPU]How to Mine AEON + Miners Downloads 💲⛏

[Mattthev]

AEON Mining!
Lot of you start mine Monero and diff got very high, so maybe you think you might switch for an alternative like AEON. You can mine AEON almost same as Monero, miners need some changes and hashrate is doubled. Here you can find ports of XMR-STAK AMD, NVIDIA, CPU, soon I will add other miners.

Instructions

Insert pool address, wallet and password

Code:

"pool_list" :
[
	{"pool_address" : "indeedminers.eu:2222", "wallet_address" : "WmtAjPsFCyWeED2UrzC96zheXSYocrqyQYRxuurapzZkPVjn3xiTHzBZwWRwRrm9B69kGthajVsRxgwqc2goCBdW2VDpA3ZQ4", "pool_password" : "x", "use_nicehash" : true, "use_tls" : false, "tls_fingerprint" : "", "pool_weight" : 10 },

],

Code:

"currency" : "aeon",

Run it, it will auto generate your configs for GPUs and CPU.

Then you can tweak each CPU.txt, NVIDIA.txt or AMD.txt for best hashrate, refer here in categories.

xmrstak/backend/nvidia/nvcc_code/cuda_extra.cu>:230
NVIDIA calculated values might give you CUDA error, just lower blocks and threads and try again. It's memory allocation problem usually.

Commands
Make bat file with xmr-stak [OPTION].

Code:

Usage: xmr-stak [OPTION]...

If you have DLL problem download https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=48145
If you have problem with Nvidia Cuda error, you need to have installed new drivers that support CUDA 9 like 384.xx or newer. Also try set threads to 20 or 26 for every card then you can try to tweak it, refer to Nvidia version down here.
Best Nvidia drivers: https://developer.nvidia.com/cuda-downloads

Note: Antivirus might block it.


AMD

Recommended drivers:Blockchain drivers - for Windows 10 1703
 or the newest 17.12 - Adrenaline, these drivers you need to switch to compute workload


AEON is best to mine with AMD CPU should be still profitable, NVIDIA is profitable but has lower hashrate than AMD.

+ Based on Wolf miner
+ Low wattage
+ Highest hashrate

- 1% fee

Instructions

Number of GPUs, if you have 6, so put there 6 or if you use 2 threads, number of GPUs will be double.

Code:

"gpu_thread_num" : 1,

This line is for every GPU, for 6 GPUs paste this line 6 times.  You need numbering index. Start with 0, if you have 6 cards you will end with last index 5.
There are possible tweaks in intensity and worksize for better hashrate.

Code:

{ "index" : 0, "intensity" : 1000, "worksize" : 8, "affine_to_cpu" : false },

Insert pool address, wallet and password

Code:

"pool_address" : "pool.aeon.hashvault.pro:5555",
"wallet_address" : "WmskqCMoyH65Zst2VtFwsWWZZEP81fd3Z7XcsMumf6nxC12ACz8sFfoAbVGARofz6fTthnkuJjwC2FwpRP29ZaKL1iq88hTaT",
"pool_password" : "x",

To enable web stats you need to put port, use some free ports like 16000

Code:

"httpd_port" : 0,

Output control
Press 'h' (hashrate), 'r' (results) or 'c' (connection) to print reports.

If you have OpenCL problem try input 1 instead of 0

+ Still in development

- 1% fee

Instructions

Start the miner, it will give you recommended settings for your cards.

Insert pool address, wallet and password

Code:

"pool_address" : "pool.aeon.hashvault.pro:5555",
"wallet_address" : "WmskqCMoyH65Zst2VtFwsWWZZEP81fd3Z7XcsMumf6nxC12ACz8sFfoAbVGARofz6fTthnkuJjwC2FwpRP29ZaKL1iq88hTaT",
"pool_password" : "x",

To enable web stats you need to put port, use some free ports like 16000

Code:

"httpd_port" : 0,

This code is for every GPU, for 6 GPUs paste this part 6 times. If you start the miner with "null" instead of this, it will generate settings for all your cards. You need numbering index. Start with 0, if you have 6 cards you will end with last index 5.

Code:

  { "index" : 0,
    "threads" : 80, "blocks" : 30,
    "bfactor" : 6, "bsleep" :  25,
    "affine_to_cpu" : false,
  },

You can tweak your hashrate with threads and blocks
Choose Value for threads and blocks
https://github.com/stoffu/aeon-stak-nvidia#choose-value-for-threads-and-blocks

The optimal parameter for the threads and blocks option in config.txt depend on your GPU. For all GPU's with a compute capability >=2.0 and <6.0 there is a restriction of the amount of RAM that can be used for the mining algorithm. The maximum RAM that can be used must be less than 2GB (e.g. GTX TITAN) or 1GB (e.g. GTX 750-TI). The amount of RAM used for mining can be changed with "threads" : T, "blocks : B".

    T = threads used per block
    B = CUDA blocks started (should be a multiple of the multiprocessors M on the GPU)

For the 2GB limit the equations must be full filled: T * B * 2 <= 1900 and B mod M == 0. The value 1900 is used because there is a little data overhead for administration. The GTX Titan X has 24 multiprocessors M, this means a valid and good starting configuration is "threads" : 16, "blocks : 48" and full fill all restrictions 16 * 48 * 2 = 1536 and 48 mod 24 = 0.

The memory limit for NVIDIA Pascal GPUs is 16 GiB if the newest CUDA driver is used.
Windows or Linux Interactive Usage

To work (surf) with you desktop system while you are running the miner you need to find a good value for bfactor and bsleep. On windows, you need to set the option bfactor and bsleep if the miner crashs shortly after starting. A good value to start on windows is "bfactor" : 6, "bsleep" : 25. To reach the maximum hash rate you must set both values to zero "bfactor" : 0, "bsleep" : 0.

Output control
Press 'h' (hashrate), 'r' (results) or 'c' (connection) to print reports.

Hi !

Thx for the share, and for all the information

yes thank you, interesting

[NameTaken]

I got about 1600h/s with a 1080Ti = 0.6 coin per day, is this right?

[ol92]

I got about 1600h/s with a 1080Ti = 0.6 per day, is this right?

Yes, I have similar results. Aeon is more cpu friendly than monero.
With ryzen you may reach 2400h/s, with a threadripper 1950x a bit under 4000h/s.
With a xeon 2696v3, I reach 3450h/s (with the bios hack enabling all core turbo).
I suppose rx vega could reach 4000h/s (I thing I have read some results like this but can't find them again).

The ratio cpu Hash/ gpu hash is a little higher for aeon than xmr.

On this miner's github page it says a 1700X gets 560h/s or is that for monero? So you get 4x the hashrate with CryptoNight-Lite vs CryptoNight?

Depends on cpu characteristics. For my xeon 2696v3 18 cores: 950h/s for xmr, 3450 h/s for aeon.

Yes, you can say that hashrate is two times higher for GPU and four times for CPU than with Monero.

Those are very nice benchmarks I will add the link to your post

[teuflor]

with my 4 x Vega rig, i get insane 15000h/s but every share will be rejected by the pool!

[Mattthev]

I've been mining over night using 2 cpu's and an RX 480

Code:

Pending Balance: 0.000000000000 AEON
 Total Paid: 0.000000000000 AEON
 Last Share Submitted: less than a minute ago
 Hash Rate: 3.32 KH/sec
 Total Hashes Submitted: 127619793

This ever going to pay out?

It need to mature.

What is maturation?

Once the block is found, it will mature. This means the block will be verified by the AEON network.
You dont have to do anything, the maturation will happen automatically.

After your block has been found, it will be “locked”. It will be “unlocked” once 60 other blocks have been found after yours. You can see the maturation state by going to your pool, for example Serenity AEON Pool and switch to the “Pool Blocks” Tab. Here you will see the current maturation of your block under the section “Maturity”.

with my 4 x Vega rig, i get insane 15000h/s but every share will be rejected by the pool!

Why? What miner are you using? Did you try change pool?

[Mattthev]

I understand that but like i said i have been mining it for 10ish hours and not even a pending payment

Is your wallet ok in config? What pool? I like this one: https://aeon.hashvault.pro/

[tazmako]

Nice work!

[Mattthev]

much much better

I only don't like there variable diff so I use static diff.
