Funakoshi equihash cuda miner is now available

[funakoshi]

Release v5.2 of funakoshi-miner is out with improved performance:

Equihash 144,5 speed:

    GTX 1080        avg  47-56   sol/s
    GTX 1080ti      avg  66-75   sol/s
    GTX 1070        avg  37-45   sol/s
    GTX 1060 6gb  avg  26-31   sol/s

Equihash 200,9 speed:

    GTX 1080 avg 525 sol/s

Note that the sol/s change all the time due to statistical nature of equihash.
To measure the avg run the miner a full day.

Since release v4.5 users can connect to any equihash pool supporting 200,9 or 144,5 algo.
Algo 200,9 is the default, use command-line arg --algo 144_5 to select the 144,5 algorithm.

Any port can be specified (ssl is no longer enforced).

The --pers parameter is supported allowing users to mine any 144,5 coin.
      --pers auto is also supported (allowing the pool to control the pers string, use auto only when supported by the pool).

Dev fee 1.5%

For more information and to download the solver visit my github repository.

Nvidia guys waiting for SSL miner.
Add nibirupool to your list.

[funakoshi]

Working on it.

nibirupool will be supported in a few hours.

Does not work, writes two errors, requires nvml.dll and cudart64_90.dll


Win10_64_LTSB,drider nvidia 388.59, VC 1070/1080/1080ti

[funakoshi]

Added cudart32_90.dll & cudart64_90.dll to release.

[funakoshi]

The file nvml.dll is part of the nvidia cuda distribution.
This dll is used by the program nvidia-smi and by the solver for
checking the current GPU temperature. It should be at directory:

    C:\Program Files\NVIDIA Corporation\NVSMI

[BoozyTalking]

Please compile with MS VC++ runtime libraries (ms-crt*******.dll errors).

Reinstalled the driver for version 390.77, an error with nvml.dll remained

[funakoshi]

I have staticaly linked the MS C++ runtime libraries,
and updated the release (download funakoshiMiner.exe).

[funakoshi]

Please check if you can run the nvidia-smi program.
It should be located at the directory
   C:\Program Files\NVIDIA Corporation\NVSMI
In this directory the dll can also be found.

You should download nvidia cuda for this to work.

Any way I have added the dll to the release.

error with nvml.dll on three different devices   
while the file nvml.dll is located C:\Program Files\NVIDIA Corporation\NVSMI

Other miners do not cause such a mistake

[funakoshi]

What happens when you run the utility program "nvidia-smi".
This program also uses the dll.

[funakoshi]

I have just created a fresh new windows instance with a GTX 1070 GPU on the cloud.

After that I have installed the nvidia driver from their website.

Next, I downloaded funakoshiMiner.exe and the dll files from
github to the same directory and executed the program.

There were no problems in finding any dll and the program worked smoothly.

miner looking for dll in the miner folder, if you put it there it will start.

[igotek]

is it faster than EBWF's ?

Funakoshi is a little faster, and is virus-free.

Miner is reporting 'wrong version number' when connected to zcl.suprnova.cc.

Went back to EBWF...

[funakoshi]

Miner is reporting 'wrong version number' when connected to zcl.suprnova.cc.

Went back to EBWF...

I have just now tried connecting to zec.supernova.cc from windows and from linux.
Both succedded without any problem.

Maybe you didn't pass correct command-line args to the program.
Did you use the SSL port?

Please look at usage example in:

   https://github.com/funakoshi2718/funakoshi-miner


Specific example for supernova:

    funakoshiMiner -cd 0 -l zec.suprnova.cc:2242 -u userName.workerName -temp-max 82 -temp-min 75

[Negcreep]

Downloaded from here https://github.com/funakoshi2718/funakoshi-miner/releases

I'm on windows 10 64 bit

Used this in bat file:

funakoshiMiner.exe -cd 0 1 -l zcl.suprnova.cc:4042 -u xxx.xxx-p xxx

Have I missed something?

*Yes I had missed something, I needed the SSL port 4142 instead

I'm not sure it is any faster than EBWF on my x2 1080ti's though.

EBWF gives approximately 1412 sols/s
Funakoshi gives approxately 1400 sols/s

75% power, +140 Core, +300 mem both cards

@Funakoshi: how does it compare to DSTM ? Because DSTM is faster than EWBF. Please advise. Thank you.
