hsrminer - Nvidia mining software for various algos by palgin&alexkap

[kravinec]

As soon as i start it says no url detected and closes. am i suppose to create a  .bat file?

Open Notepad, write your command, save it as .bat. Simple.

Hello,

Very nice program!
I just discovered it and started testing it right away.

Please add API support as soon as possible.
Also, it would be great if the API behaves in the same way as the one in CCMiner. That way we can just replace CCMiner with your program.

Any way to change intensity?

One issue I have with this miner is that when the screen goes black from idle it will not turn itself on again so the only solution is to reboot the computer. 

Why is your screen going black from idle?  Change the settings in windows so that never happens.

TitanXP is just a 1080ti (same GP102 proc) with 2 additional SMDs enabled (30 vs 28) and an additional GB of RAM? every other miner for 1080ti also works on it...

hsrminer_neoscrypt isn't working on my cards. Tried zpool and ahashpool. Any ideas?

This miner doesn't work with Titans. See the "0,0,0" flags? I'm pretty sure that means it's not supported yet... that is if this is still going to be developed.

[Jsorrentino]

I'm using this and the hash rate is erratic on the pool.

Klaus is pretty stable in comparison.

How often does this mine dev fee?  Is it possible switching to dev fee mining and then back and needs to recover back to hash normal rate on the pool?  If so this is happening MUCH too often.  

Thanks!

Hello guys,

I'm getting the below error on three different rigs. Any ideas?

Cuda error in func 'neoscrypt_cpu_init' at line 1352 : out of memory.

Well this one does not.

[Fromage]

@palgin....

our Wrapper for hsrminer will not work for those users who do not have Windows in U.S English setting....

Our wrapper will detect the hashrate but places a comma instead of a period for those without the Window's settings

Gotta love the financial institution!

It’s -i and then a number from 1 to 16. Keep adjusting till you find your number.

not sure if serious or trolling giveen1...

[MagicSmoker]

A related (and not trolling) question... I just tried out hsrminer on a Windows 10 machine with a single GTX 1080 and Neoscrypt went from around 1040 kH/s with ccminer-klaust to 1230 kH/s - a sizable improvement more than worth the devfee. However, moving the exact same card over to a Windows 7 machine resulted in an average speed of about 1130 kH/s while ccminer-klaust still does around 1040 kH/s. Granted, hsminer still handily beats ccminer-klaust, but what could cause the drop in hashrate? The Nvidia drivers are the same on both machines, the amount of RAM is the same - 16GB - but the Windows 10 machine has an AMD FX-8300 CPU while the Win7 machine has an AMD Phenom II x4 955 (a generation older).

I'm guessing I need to tweak intensity on the Win7 machine, but it would be nice to know what the current intensity is so I don't have to go through a laborious iterative search.

I too would like some data on intensity settings, if anybody has them.

[MagicSmoker]

I too would like some data on intensity settings, if anybody has them.

So far I've tried a few intensity settings out with surprising results:

I started with -i15 because I just assumed -i16 would bring my system to its knees, but hsrminer crashes with illegal memory access error at line 1500 with this setting. So I tried -i14; same result. Then -i13 and -i12; again, same result. Perplexed, I tried the other end of the scale and set -i1. The miner successfully starts and shares are accepted. When the first hashrate report prints it says 1275 kH/s. Thinking this might just be because difficulty is so low during the first minute or so of operation on a vardiff port, I let it run for a few more minutes and the average climbs to around 1290 kH/s.

I'm not sure what is going on here, but it definitely wasn't what I expected...  


EDIT - after ~15 minutes at -i2 average hashrate is 1298 kH/s, so slightly higher. Power consumption crept up by 10W as well. This seems to be going in the expected direction now.

Are your video cards all at stock settings? What motherboard and power supply are you using? Do you have the latest drivers?

I've tried various setting in Afterburner, the most success I've had so far is with the stock settings. It's an MSI z270 Pro motherboard. Had two EVGA GQ psu's (1000w and 650w) but the 650 has never worked, so currently utilizing the 1000w until the 1300w G2 arrives next week. Even operating at 90% of the psu's efficiency, I'm good on power. Have 2 SSD drives, 120g and 260g. I added the second one because i read that I needed a large paging file and was running out of room on the first drive. All drivers are up to date. All equipment is brand new.

I'm still having this issue. I have 4 of my 5 cards working. I think the 5 is broken. HSRminer will run for a few minutes and then  crash with this error.

The miner just stopped at that point or sometime feezes the whole computer. I have added RAM. I now have 32 GB of RAM. I've adjust all the settings that were recommended. I reinstalled each of the cards individually which worked. I have 4 running cards and 1 that doesn't. I think this crashing issue in HSRminer is related to the paging file. Currently set at the minimum being 16000 and the max is 55000. 5 Gigabyte cards GTX 1070 Windforce OC with 8 gb on board.

Any help you can offer would be great. Been slaving at this for way too long.

See if your drops in hashrate correlate with changes in chip temperature. GPU throttles down its clocks with increase in temp.

Yeah, it seems that GPU throttling caused the performance drops that I was seeing. I had my temp limit at 75°C and after changing it to 80°, local hashrates are rock solid. This is a bit strange because actual temps always stay between 65° and 68° and never go above 70°. But right now, I'm perfectly happy with hsrminer. Hashrates on the pool still seem to be more volatile than with KlausT, but overall performance is considerably better. Thank you, palgin. Here are my current settings:

Single KFA2 GTX 1060
Power Limit 60%
Temp Limit 80° (actual temp 65-68°)
Core Clock +150 (actual clock 1366-1455 MHz)
Memory Clock -400 (3402 MHz)
