[PROFITABLE CPU MINING] Mine from home / work! Tutorial

[FreeTrade]

By the way, my personal recommendation is to place mmcpool on the top of the list (in case you're doing it manually) so your yam-mmc.cfg will look something like that:

Yes - I agree - better to have mmcpool on top to even out the pool balance.

Keep in mind that the mined blocks need to be confirmed.
Check your balance in the pools through the wallet:
Choose "Mining -> Pool Balance" and choose all 3 to see your page (if any).

What's the HPM that you see?
What CPU do you have?
What are the settings you use?

[animexartist]

Sounds like this will be a little risky to the processor due to the heat factor, at least if one has a regular stock cpu-fan...
however this risk can of course be lowered by using less cpu threads or by getting some quality cooling system for the processor 
just thought I should point this out before someone bbq's their processor

Itsik78, what is your hpm to get 24mmc per day?
Do u have a server with one i7 4770k?

Thanks

Thanks for the guide, it gave a huge bump to my HPM.

Thanks for the guide, it gave a huge bump to my HPM.

Very happy to hear that!

Is this mine really working?

Last block was found 29 days ago!!!

I was mining there for a while but I abandoned that mine, since I assume there is something going wrong in there...

I don't know, but as I said - I highly recommend mining at mmcpool

How does yamMiner compare the wallet miner? How many more coins would I generate by switching over to yamMiner?

If you mean the pool miner that is integrated with the newest wallet (Version 0.8.582) then they are the same.
As I wrote - if you have Windows and AES-NI enabled CPU + 64 bit, you're all set to go with the integrated miner.
If not, follow option 2 in my post as you'll have to make it work manually.

Trying to get this started, but I'm having issues getting things going. I changed the wallet addresses, added threads, tried mem at 1024 up to 7168, set to finetune, pasted .cfg into the yam.exe.

yam just opens and the closes right away.
Is there something else I need to do?

Did you download the ivy-Bridge variant?

Try downloading the SandyBridge variant of the miner from the 2nd route in my original post (note the OS and 32/64 bits variants and choose the correct one).
Then configure it manually using my instructions there.
This should generate better results.

yes, I downloaded yam-yvg1900-M7k-win64-ivy-bridge.zip and I'm running win8 64-bit. Does the application automatically know to look for the yam.cfg when its in the same folder as the exe? Do I need to create a .bat file? if so what should it look like?

Oh, so according to your question you're not running it correctly
run:

Code:

yam -c yam-mmc.cfg

It doesn't look for it automatically - you have to tell it to use the config file.

[mechtronic2001]

Got it. I went ahead and created a batch file and changed up my config.

So again this is for the 3770k(stock), 16gb ram, windows 8 64-bit:

threads = 8
mining-params = mmc:av=0&aesni=on&m=8192
mine = getwork://MCQqnZX5GgfdoBPVKY6iXuq4C4Ze2HxbS3@work.mmcpool.com:80:8880:8881:8882:8883/mmc
mine = getwork://MCQqnZX5GgfdoBPVKY6iXuq4C4Ze2HxbS3@mmcpool.1gh.com:8080:8081:8082:8083/mmc
mine = getwork://yvg1900.mmc_1:x@mmc.gpools.com:8080/mmc
#proxy = socks4a://127.0.0.1:9150
compact-stats = 1
print-timestamps = 0


With these setting I get between 8-8.4 HPM; does that seem accurate?


edit:

After letting it sit all night the hpm went up further
