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

[itsik78]

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:


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

8.4 HPM is awesome for this CPU.
Seems great.
Note that you've activated fine tuning (av=0) as I suggested.
This means it will try a variant of algorithms and find the best one for your config.
Check the printouts to see what's the best AV (algorithm variation) is for your config and change your batch file to that av to save the fine tuning time next time.
In most cases, av=1 is the best one, but sometimes I saw av=2 performing better and maybe with other specs, other AVs are better...

Thanks for sharing!

Something doesn't add-up for me here.

I have a i7-2600 and the following table says I can mine at only 3 HP/m.
http://mmcwiki.com/memorycoin_mining_intel_hardware_comparison

Then using this calculator, I can earn only 2.32 MMC per day?

This table is outdated.
The new miner is about 3 times more efficient than what you see in the table

Can anyone say what's going on ;]? (i7 2600 8Gb Ram)

When I start miner i get a Warning.

(Memory Usage 1024)
Warning: MemoryCoin2 memory block for thread 0 allocated in non-hugepages memory - thread preformance may degrade...

If i set Memory usage to 2048, I get same error for thread 0 and 1 etc. (4096 - 0, 1, 2, 3)

And doesn't matter how much memory i use, my HPM is always about ~9


Thanks itsik78! That solved my problem.

Download the miner and read hugepages-win64.txt (or the one related to your OS)
Follow the instructions if you want to help the miner work better...

I am going to give this a try.

Good luck!

I do mining, with pool from wallet. With my Intel Core I5-2430m 2.40 Ghz.
I dont feel like 2 coins maby each day is worth it. or wath should i prefere?

EARNINGS

    0.0000 MMC Paid
    0.3845 MMC Current balance
    0.3255 MMC Unconfirmed

STATS

    YES Connected
    2.93 HPM (estimated)
    0.7101 MMC Mined (last 24 hours)

“Earnings” shows your current balance, amount of paid funds, and amount of unconfirmed funds. As soon as the blocks that you have been mining are confirmed, the unconfirmed funds will be transferred to your current balance. Next you will need to wait for the payment to reach your address.

“Blocks“ shows the list of the blocks that you have been mining.

“Connected: YES“ means that in the last 5 minutes your miner has sent at least one share to the pool.
BLOCKS

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.

Nice mann, tanx alot. I wil truy later

Hi all,

I tried doing the "launch pool miner" method through the wallet last night and let it run for 10 hours, but only ended with about 0.5 MMC. I'm using a 4670k overclocked to 4.2GHz. Does this seem accurate? Looks awfully low to me, even without being able to hyperthread to 8 cores from my 4 cores.

[itsik78]

Hi,

I think i'm going to buy a Intel® 1x Xeon® E3 1220 for a personal sever, how much HPM should I get ?
I was wondering, since the profit calculator given in the previous post is completely no accurate at all, is there a profit calculator for MMC which works well ?

Thanks,
Bio

I can't really say as I haven't tried it.
But according to this: http://www.cpu-world.com/CPUs/Xeon/Intel-Xeon%20E3-1220.html
It has AES-NI support which means it should perform well.

The profit calculator is accurate. The data in the wiki isn't accurate (the HPM there is for the old miner which was around 1/3 as efficient as the current one...)

Sounds very low indeed.
First of all, check your unconfirmed balance at the pools. It takes around 10 hours for the blocks to mature, so that might be your problem.

If that's not the case I advise you to go through option 2 in my original post and download the miner manually - then you'll have more control and it will be more efficient.

Do you think I could make $1/day ?

I really can't say.
If we go for a rough estimate (and assuming you have a nice amount of memory) according to this benchmark: http://www.cpubenchmark.net/cpu.php?cpu=Intel+Xeon+E3-1220+%40+3.10GHz
The performance is around 60% of i7-4770.
i7-4770 can make between $5 to $10 per day. This means that you'll most probably make more.
VERY ROUGH ESTIMATE. I'm not taking responsibility for this info

ok, I'm going to test.
Can I trust the HPM shown by the YAM Miner or should I trust MMCPool if I want an accurate value of the HPM done by my CPU ?

EDIT:
I was lookingat YAM Miner, and I see there is two HTM written.. which one should I trust ?

I don't think there are 2 HPMs.
You probably mean SPM and HPM.

The HPM in the miner is quite accurate and usually the pool will show a very similar number.

Is this only for 64bit OS? is there a 32bit version?

Rgds

Ratters

There is a 32bit version as well.
Not the one integrated with the wallet.
You'll have to take route #2 and do it manually.

Please can you link me to the 32 bit version.

wallet stuck synco at three weeks any info?

wallet stuck synco at three weeks any info?

Try adding nodes using our Node Explorer:
http://www.mmc-chain.com/?engine=nodeexplorer

(In the wallet: "Help"->"Debug Window"->"Console" and type:
addnode <node address> add
addnode <node address> onetry

For example:
addnode q39.protoshar.es add
addnode q39.protoshar.es onetry

Sorry, just noticed there's no 32 bit miner.
I haven't tried it on a 32bit system. It might work (slower of course).
Please download the 64bit and let us know if it works.

Thanks

I'm crashing with no errorcode right from the getgo on the XEON E5-2620 which is Sandy Bridge supposedly.
I have 8 GB of RAM avail. OS is Server 2008 R2.

I tried diff num of threads, mem, and aesni=off

??  lol

I don't have to register with the pool, correct?

The problem with your config is that you gave more than 1024 memory per thread...
1 thread is maximum 1024.
So either change the threads to 2 or the memory to 1024 and it should work.
If it still doesn't, check carefully what the error is (it has very nice and explanatory printouts).
You don't need to register with the pool.

[FiatKiller]

According to the above the mem# is total for all threads. I did try 2 and same thing...

There are no errorcodes. Crashes immediately. I even tried to > log.txt and it was empty.

Sorry,
Can't think of any reason that would happen.

Try contacting the developer (yvg1900) by pasting your question as a reply to his forum post (the one I'm linking to in my post).

Did you try m=1024?  That parameter is per-thread, believe me, I have used it. Whoops, it's total mem.
