EWBF's Cuda Equihash Miner 0.6

[dug03]

1060x6 averaging 22Mh/s using older Dell server board G43T, Intel E8500 3.16GHz, 8GB sys mem (set to System manage), tuned with Intel XTU utility, 3 cards EVGA. EWBF easily connects and looks quite promising as usual. Waiting for correct block height and ready to mine! DEV FEE left intact, every other miner gets and EWBF deserves it! Hope the DEV sticks with this 0.2 miner and keeps it tuned! THANKS EWBF!!

EDIT: looks like we are @ 535842 Blkhgt now...

What does it mean when you say DEV FEE left intact?   Are we paying someone to use EWBF, sorry for the naive question.

Some keep asking about the No fee option as in --fee 0 used back in earlier versions, and I laugh because look how many suffer with the Claymore miners yet pay that fee.... so I pay the 2% EWBF fee. It takes time coding these miners...

Ok so it sounds like there is a fee.  How is that being paid, through the miner program ?  Is it a one time fee or ongoing?

I think it's explained in the v0.2 descript on page 1 but like all miners it will mine every so many minutes or hashes to the Dev pool (usually flypool or Nanopool) and that's fine, EWBF is honest...

Is line --pers BgoldPoW must be added to miner even on mainnet if i use, for example, Suprnova pool?

I had to use on the testnet so I assume you will need it for Suprnova Pool.   I will be mining there as well and it is in my config file already to go.

Is this the best miner to mine btcz?

Thank you! I will monitor this topic for updates.

EWBF Cuda Equihash Miner v0.2

Greetings!
This is the initial release of a new miner for Equihash algorithm.
It is based on my last Zcash miner and almost completely repeats it.
Now closer to the topic:
*  Parameter "solver" is disabled.
*  Solver for equihash 200,9 has been deleted.
*  Solvers for Equihash 192,7 and 144,5 has been added
*  Added timestamps in the output to the screen and to the log file.
*  Argument --algo is added, allow you to select Equihash variant allowed two values 144_5 and 192_7. This parameter is mandatory.
*  Argument --pers is added, allow you to set personalization string (8 charachters) for equihash algorithm. This parameter is optional. Equihash by default uses the string "ZcashPoW", many other coins also use this string, but not all, some coins use their own string, and these are all differences, so for some coins, you need to set the --pers option to the required string, for example, Zero coin: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=3310714  uses the string "ZERO_PoW" and for mining this coin you need to pass arguments --algo 192_7 --pers ZERO_PoW ....
Fee is presented and by default 2%, argument --fee is presented too.

v0.2
*  Reduced amount of rejected shares.
*  Performance 144_5 is increased by ~ 5%.
*  Added algorithm zhash it is similar to "--algo 144_5 --pers BitcoinZ." Now you can use "--algo zhash" string.

Expected performance:
144_5 uses ~2.2GB vram
 1050ti   ~12S/s  
 1060    ~20S/s
 1070    ~30S/s
 1080    ~35S/s
 1080ti    ~55S/s

192_7 uses ~2.9GB vram
 1050ti    ~7S/s
 1060    ~12S/s
 1070    ~18S/s
 1080    ~20S/s
 1080ti    ~30S/s

Please note, that this is initial release, and it can be baggy or incompatible with many coins or pools.
Miner compiled with cuda 9.1 and cuda 8.0 for x64 linux and windows. Support devices with compute capability 5.0 and higher.

will you continue to develop your miner and account for new additions?

[dushan76]

Can someone explain me what means --boff 0 command?

[rgsnedds]

nice work. wondering if there's a pool doing autoswitch of miners for BTG, anyone know?

[beefs]

gee there's something important i've been wanting to pass along to you for, oh, roughly 1 year...yet i'm struggling to recall what exactly it is.

OH YEAH!

FUCK YOU for disappearing you greedy son of a bitch.  leaving to never return is one thing, but to ghost and reemerge in parallel with an algo change is little more than fuckery.  eat 13,927 hiv-infected cocks!

[HFG5521]

That seems really excessive Beefs.

For everyone else, could someone send me a copy of their working BTG testnet config so I can compare? Feel free to edit all the personals out.

[adeptio]

I think old gpus with new nvidia driver somehow do just a half of tdp

What file to download if I have miners on a GeForce 1080 video card? With cuda or without cuda?

Seems really honest.  I said what everyone is thinking (you're welcome).

Not everyone; most of us ascribe to the camp of "why are you mad because he didn't break what was already working?" and/or "if it ain't broke, don't 'fix' it!"
If you can't mine with a stable setup and 0.3.4b, then you shouldn't be mining.
