[ANN] coolMiner - Lyra2z Miner for nVidia [Maxwell\Pascal\Volta\RTX]

[mrstark89]

I got 1100-1150 kH/s with GTX1060-3G Hynix memory. Is that OK ?

Hi,

I have 900 x 1080ti and I tried all the linux version of the miner in this thread and all would give me "illegal instruction" when I run them.
I's using HiveOS and cude 9.2 is installed.

Could you please contact me on Discord ?  This would be very appreciated.

Thanks

This miner is not working on Linux. I have tried it many times on HiveOS with different combinations CUDA

This miner sorely needs better Linux support. You should package dependencies in your executable or use an older, more stable dependency so it works for more people without issue.

Thats why i asked for cuda 9.1 version, too much problems with cuda 9.2. I'm not interested in small bumps in speed for one algo - reliability is more important for me. Developer said no.

+1
drivers with 9.2 cuda causing problems , can we get cuda 9.1 version so we can use more stable drivers.

Damn man Titan V is really good. I have 2x 1080ti and 1x 1070 and consume like 400+ watts while doing 9mh total speed.

What driver version you are using? my miner should be min 5% better, for comparison 1070 @ 2025Mhz should give you 1950Kh/s, on 1080TI on stock (1987Mhz)I get 3350Khs on ccminer 2.2.5 vs 3550+ on coolMiner.
P.S- I think the 1070Ti is the main winner here, 1080 performance level with lower power, I think it's the best GPU for price/performance/multi use(ETH+GPU intensive algos) for Lyra2z.

398.18, and it was actually 1-10% better performance; the 1060s benefit from this.

Still no simple linux support, I am not downloading windows to run this , DEV please do a linux version and make it clear

[oxygensignature0]

any chance to have a cuda 9.1 version avaiable?

Where is the -help file for coolminer v1.3?
I cannot set the stratum difficulty in the command line using any known commands.
Pool always reverts to 1 as  a starting point!

-p c=(coin),d=(difficulty) should do it but it doesn't.
Also tried --diff (difficulty) and it doesn't work either.

Mining on BSOD (yiimp pool). Any help here?

No problem with static difficulty on angrypool, I don’t know why on bsod you can’t set it ...

Has some miner  Lyra2REv2H to " AMD GPU" for use in windows?

[Ryzen2700x]

Thanks for all your comments  .
Added 32Bit version, hashrate is same- but maybe it will be more stable(?).

Update: coolMiner-v1.3 32Bit & 64Bit!

Regarding Linux- I asked for help bit got none  , If you know how to edit the compile options so the binary could be shared and work on multiple systems- I will be happy to try and recompile, the Default build scripts on ccminer only works on the compiler PC, so I need help to modify them so you could also run it, Thanks in Advance!.

After 10 days running with Coolminer 1.3 the stats:

Windows 10 Pro 1803 - 398.11 NV driver

2x1070 MSI Armor
1x 1080 Gigabyte 1080 Aurus
3x 1080Ti Inno3d Ichill x4
Overall average: 16,273MH/s with average 717W power consumption at the wall, and 0,3-1% stale share on intensiti 19.

[slysir]

How to remove the error popup window with "nvml.dll error". I have to click on it to start the miner.  

OK did a fresh install to fix it.

Did it helped?

[bitcoinminer0319]

what is intensity for 1080ti?

i tried 16 and it is pretty slow mining.

[bitcoinminer0319]

i also got rejected share when i start mining.

[Ryzen2700x]

-i < 19 will give slower hash-rate,
Regarding rejected  shares- if the reason is "job not found" this is because new block found and the share for the previous block is rejected.

hello i can help you with the linux trouble you are running in. You can contact me on discord Ghosting#4631 or by email at motis@mineum.org

Lyra2z - Head to Head test of CoolMiner 1.3 Vs CryptoDredge 0.4.1

Hash rate numbers are vanity metrics and can be gamed.  The only thing I care about is "which miner puts more coins in my wallet?" I've done dozens of Head to Head tests in the past see: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=3385643.0

I've decided to test CoolMiner 1.3 Vs CryptoDredge 0.4.1 to see which one mines more coins on Lyra2z.


MINERS:
CoolMiner 1.3 intensity = 20
CryptoDredge 0.4.1 intensity = 6

The Setup:
I use a 12 GPU 1080Ti rig on Windows 10, split into three mining instances of 4 GPU's each (for this test, only two of the instances are used). All three mining instances are balanced to get as close to the same hash rate as possible.
Each mining instance is running at the same time on the same machine mining on the same pool.

Overclock settings: 100% TDP, NO overclocking
Drivers: Nvidia 398.11


Test 1 Results: Test aborted

about 4 hours into the test, the rig crashed. I'm confident that it was due to CryptoDredge, the rig had close to two weeks of uptime running Coolminer.
When I went to restart CryptoDredge, I got the following error: > Error: bad lexical cast: source type value could not be interpreted as target

Given the increased temps, increased power draw, and stability issues; I cannot recommend CryptoDredge, even if it does provide a few percentage point gain over Coolminer.
I'll wait until CryptoDredge has the bugs worked out to give it another try

• [CoolMiner 1.3]  - Pool Link
• [CryptoDredge 0.4.1]  - - Pool Link

Notes on CryptoDredge:

• GPU's run about 6-8 degrees Celcius hotter than with coolminer
• The GPU count starts at 0, whereas ccminer variants start the count at 1. this obviously makes a difference when using the -d flag
• Intensity ranges from 0 to 6, 1080Ti defaults to a 6
• I initially had issues with stability. The miner would crash the rig after a minute or two of running. I had 397 drivers on the rig, which I knew caused issues for some miners. So I DDU'd the rig, installed 398 drivers, and didn't overclock... that seemed to clear up the problem.
• No API support
