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

[valentoz]

Hello dear friend! You are very good at making a miner! Your miner works much better than everyone else! Can you work on the new EWBF-ZHASH miner? I think a lot of people would really appreciate it.

[Miner2525]

I would like to share with you my modified version of ccminer 2.2.5 with improved lyra2z kernels,
I see that there is many new coins for this algo and since the hot summer is near there is no better "Eco" algo like lyra2z.
So I called it the -"coolMiner" :-).

Is there any speed enhancement for Lyra2zV2 or is that a completely different algorithm?

[HashAuger]

I finally upgraded my development system to the new Cuda SDK 9.2 compatible drivers so I could add support for your miner to my algorithm-switching software Hash Auger.  CoolMiner 1.3 seems very stable. Several users are reporting a significant decrease in power consumption versus other Lyra2z miners while still having great hash rates.  Good work!

[Ryzen2700x]

Thank you, keep the good work you are doing  .

Add speed from 4000mh/s for 1080 ti !

[soothaa]

Loving this very much. Keeps the cards running cool and quiet in the summer!

Update:- Added coolMiner-v1.3L for Linux:

coolMiner-v1.3 32Bit & 64Bit!
* Applied the suggested fix by JackIT to "Fix slow start in multi gpu-rigs".

How did you get this speed ? What is your system and settings ?

I use cool miner 1.3  (win 10 x64) and have 3700-3750 maximum for 1080 ti

[bcn2048]

greetings to all,

my simple rig consists of gtx1070, gtx980 and gtx970, i made a test on default settings for all cards,

with tpruvot ccminer x64 2.2.6 cuda9 it reached around 3800 khs, but with coolMiner-v1.3 it is much better - around 4420 khs !

Himm sounds like a private miner fork of an open source miner for just 0.05BTC or a very optimized miner for Linux
Vega 64 makes around 7000 mh/s anyway, they say.

Thanks for your efforts, can you please compile it with Cuda 9.1 libraries? We're on hiveos and cannot use your miner yet. I get this error:

Code:

Your system does not support CUDA 9.2 API!

[mobileanarchy]

When trying to run the miner in benchmark mode it seems to ignore the algo parameter (it's always trying to bench blakecoin and fail).
Please fix by either wiring up the algo passed in as a parameter, or hardcode lyra2z instead of blakecoin.

Reproducible by running: coolMiner-x64 --algo=lyra2z --benchmark --time-limit 20

I'm trying to plug this miner into my GUI:
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2907433.0
And benchmarking is a crucial functionality needed to make it work.

Thanks.

Thank you , I have fixed it now, will release v1.5 in few days.

[Miner2525]

Thank you , I have fixed it now, will release v1.5 in few days.

Please fix your miner so that -r 0 exits (and not retries indefinitely) as is standard with the other major miners.

I did it with V1.4, but the miner crush/restart wastes time too, the problem is with ccminer when using 2 pools, I am trying to fix that.

Moreover- new Driver is out: Geforce-398-36-whql-driver

well) i just find a decision) it s not beautiful but hope it works) i just made one bat file to start miner and another one that counting down 15 minutes (for example) and killing miner process in task manager/waiting for couple seconds and starts first bat again in new cli window) and starts counting again. this rough thing hope will help from hanging and other problems)

Do you mind sharing the codes here?

why all the trouble? V1.4 exit's miner in case of connection problem, so u can use it, frequent miner restart looses profit because of the time takes to send first share after miner start.
V1.4 should be better in this case.

I will try to check if something changed in ccminer v2.3 in this matter.

do you really wanna restart/check it works manually every hour?))) rofl - you might never sleep also?)

@echo on

:start
 
Timeout /T 900

 
Taskkill /IM coolMiner-x64.exe /F

Timeout /T 5
Start "miner" cmd /c *.bat

Timeout /T 5
goto start

PS - put this batch to the same folder as miner and its bat. better put folder in c:\ (root of C) for no mistaking/long path to file. * = name of your start bat. first time i start original bat and just after - this bat. after this it all goes without your help ;-)
