EWBF's Cuda Equihash Miner 0.6

[Overdrive5]

...
GPU 1: Gigabyte GeForce GTX 650 2GB (2048 MB) = used for my own necessitate, browsing, working, sometime gaming
...
With this setting i was play game on 650 & mine on 1060 ETH, Neoscript, old Equihash with out problem only now i can't use your miner because it say from start "ERROR: out of memory" with is something wrong

Bolded is your problem, 3GB cards are new required minimum. Your only option is to start miner only on GPU0 (3GB one), look few post above how to do that (in your case use parameter --cuda_devices 0 for GPU0).

And to add more info to this, EWBF requires compute 5 or higher.

Unfortunately, a GTX 650 is only compute 3.0 . Maybe use the 650 to mine something else?

Hello @EWBF_

hardware:

motherboard: asrock h110 pro btc (13gpu)
memory : 4gb
cpu Celeron 3930

video cards: 13 gtx EVGA SC2 1080Ti

issue:

gpu 9 gpu 10 gpu 11 and gpu 12 always gets stuck and stops working during gpu detection.
May be build the miner to detect all gpus at the very start?

I started 2 miner

cuda_devices 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 and 7 8 9 10 11 12

and is very very very slow process detected card :-( and crashed EWBF

Please help me ASAP i have +- 3000 card

13x1070 card working normal

SouthWEBA, Which O/S?

gsanjin if you was read i say GP0 is use only for mining aka always in any mining application i enable only GP0 aka in EWBF case i have "--cuda_devices 0" used, so what you was say is not issue, thx anyway

@Overdrive5 you to was not read all what i write 650 GPU = "used for my own necessitate, browsing, working, sometime gaming" is NOT use for mining ... only 1060 read full post what done on previos page aka here https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=4466962.msg41579162#msg41579162

How much swap are you running?

[baraday]

Am i the only one so far that dont have any kind of improvment with 0.3 version speed wise,on 144.5 algo my 1080tis are doing 55-60 sols wich is the same speed that they had on previous version...Am i missing out something or boost is for 1060/70 cards?

I also have 0 improvement on my 1080ti, so perhaps with the next version

For me : 1050Ti, and 15% boost with v0.3 :-)

Hello! check this out: https://mega.nz/#F!uhQR0IRa!jZ_tdULPoUf3ib4O6-1BoQ this is a special version, basically the same v0.3, but with a modified device launch system. Please note that if you do not have a problem with starting up devices, do not use this version!

Yes, on second read You're using v0.3? There were problems with 3GB on first versions of miner on Win 10 because of way Win 10 addresses GPU memory, but I see you use Win 7. Have you tried using --cuda_devices 1 maybe gpu ordering is wrong? Any difference if you try mining with just one card in system?

@EWBF_ hmm after i take this new test version miner it start running what it make me think in other version when it use --cuda_devices 0 & there are 2,3 gpu in reality miner it was not deselect other one coz check this:

so conclusion new test version it fix using device correctly (cuda 9.1) ....

[cirlama]

for me, mining zero with gtx 1080 ti, efficiency is better with high intensity (--intensity 90 --algo 192_7) and reduced power (like 65 to 70%), 33 sol/s (+400 mem, +80 core, 65% power)

similar results for MNX coin (--intensity 90 --algo 96_5)

with base intensity, I need more power in Watt to achieve the same hashrate

[gsanjin]

so conclusion new test version it fix using device correctly (cuda 9.1) ....

Glad you found out solution, after all it was bug in device selection code.

is there any news about the normal support of Maxwell? (GTX 970/980)

Sorry, right now there is no news, I'm working on it.

[teammaf]

can the intensity be set higher then 64? Does it even have much effect?

And EWBF_ please dont forget change -intensity command real 1-64 scale (here intensity 1 and same eat computer resources than 64.., nothing change), its very important! Thank you.
