CP3U SHA Scrypt Quark [XMR-XDN-BCN-BTC-LTC-QRK] win64 CPU Miner i3i5i7 Bulldozer

Does it not report the successful share?

It reports like this:

[Palmdetroit]

The Athlon II series most definitely supports it, sse2 was introduced in the Athlon 64.

Ya I saw it when I looked it up - the only flag in the legacy version is for sse2

Any luck with it?

thank you, so its not working here, tried x64 and legacy, intel i5 2nd with p2ppool as you described

Are you seeing

Code:

[2013-11-30 23:35:25] Stratum detected new block
[2013-11-30 23:35:43] Stratum detected new block
[2013-11-30 23:35:56] Stratum detected new block

Those should go by pretty quick if its working correctly.

Try it with http://qrk.coinmine.pl/

I put the batch in the files (may need to dl again) to mine with this pool now as it seems to have better latency. Also check your CPU usage.. should be running near 100% with default settings

Easy P2pool mining:

1)Run Start_miner.bat

2) If it runs then you simply need to adjust .bat file as follows:
replace QV41kKfw9L6qNr43SNRFci9HzgsxeJf5yh to address you would like your quark sent too.

3) Profit! you will see payments coming into the address you specified in 2.

Example:
Minerd.exe -q -a quark --url 176.221.46.81:8372 -O QV41kKfw9L6qNr43SNRFci9HzgsxeJf5yh:x

Update * added .txt and .bat to archives.

is 176.221.46.81 your pool?  that gets super high # of DOA

No, that is some p2pool I found...easiest to set up, no account needed, it does pay on time but I recommend http://qrk.coinmine.pl  (not p2pool)

I've only tested for a bit on vishera (bdver2), which works fine.

Still solo mining with gpus though, ~ 75 watts for 2+ mh/s from caymans.

Thanks for testing,  I also tested the bulldozer one on 8150, 4300, I did test out a piledriver one too.. maybe 10% increase, maybe not. I'm pretty sure you can push 1.5m on a 8350 @ ~125w.. Id love to get some numbers on a 9590

There is some room to do more improvements on the code still.

[CoinBuzz]

Try legacy I added it to
https://sourceforge.net/projects/philosopherstone/files/QRK/

If that doesn't work your not 64 bit win or the chip is too old to use sse2

thanks, it worked greatly.

Now, is there any linux version i can find? maybe a source to compile ?

That's exactly what I'm seeing. But does that mean it's working? Why does it not report hashrate? Also, the pool you defaulted to is not indicating any hash rate for the worker.

Do you know how to fix that?... if you see a problem with that.

[||bit]

I took the "-q" flag out and saw some thread activity. But it didn't read like anything you posted above. Also, it indicated just a few kilohash, nowhere near 1MH. Maybe it was so low it would not register on the website.
I have a 3.40 Ghz Intel (SandyBridge) i7-2600 ... I'd have thought that would be a good CPU to mine with, but apparently not.

I've spent nearly half a day trying to figure out the scattered shoddy quark documentation across all these threads. And still no real success. Yours is perhaps the closest I've come to figuring something out.

[||bit]

I figured out my problem. It's kinda silly, but to help others, I'll describe what happened. I had my config file in my wallet set to automine. So, it was mining while the software was connected. Essentially, I had two miners competing for the processor. ALSO... I was using the legacy software, and not the i7 software.

It's mining at near 1MH. Some accepted values have been reported. Wow. This is a little bit of a relief.

Is there a GPU miner for this yet?... I'm kinda hoping not to avoid more headaches... and so we are all on the same playing field.

[Palmdetroit]

There is indeed a GPU miner but I think it takes a % of your mining, haven't looked at it.

10%. Kinda hard to solo at this point unless you have a lot of GPUs too.

Well I heard that GPU miner is solo only, with CPU  miner you can just put it on a bunch of cpus and point them all to your own client or use pools.

Its still profitable to mine so expect it to keep increasing

Just for clarification purposes - new Intel = Haswell only?

[runlinux]

Just for clarification purposes - new Intel = Haswell only?

I have that version working on both a 3770k and a 4770k, so no.

I just used the newest flag for haswell, although reported to me 5%+ faster it's in the margin of error and most likely adds nothing or near it since AVX2 is the only improvement I know of from the lesser build.

There is shortcuts to some of the algs in quarkcoin that I have not implemented in release d binary, but they are only about ~15% atm

best quarkminer is the minerd64_sse4.exe  from here : *Edited by SaltySpitoon* Link Removed due to virus warnings
the minerd64_sse4.1.exe didnt work, but the minerd64_sse4.exe  is fast and show the shares and i got double accepted than with the i7 here!!!

Im using minerd_w32_sse3.exe for my Q6600 and it shows the hashes and speed on every thead, i've created another worker for my laptop which is an i5-2410M 2.4Ghz to try to speed things up (just temporarily, while it's still somewhat minable, I dont wanto damage it). I was planning to leave it for the night and see if I wake up with results, but im only seeing "Stratum detected new block" all the time and nothing else. Is this normal? Why your version of minerd doesn't show speed and hashes? It would be better, it feels like you are doing something, since pool information on the websites is useless since it's always lagged.

Btw, about false positives, just always download the stuff from a thrusted source, but most antivirus are throwing miners as trojans these days.
