Hi, I'm new to all this but have got a a couple of old servers mining plus my desktop. My problem is that rhminer is not finding my GPU. I've checked it's supported and it is (GTX 770). When I ran the rhminer -list command all I got was CPU information and when trying to run using the GPU I get a message something like -gpu is an invalid command. Does the card require a specific driver version? Any help would be much appreciated. What rhminer version are you using? rhminer 1.2 release works with gpu.You may want to check the discord for help on gpu mining. But don't expect too much hashrate from gpu, PascalCoin randomhash algorithm is designed to be cpu friendly. Even a midrange intel cpu beats a gtx 1080ti.

Thanks. 1.3 is CPU only and you need the nvidia-cuda-toolkit installed under Linux for 1.2 to work. I am not sure about Windows. This is my old PC: root@thebeast:~/rhminer# ./rhminer -list

rhminer is for nvidia devices only, no support yet for amd cards.

rhminer is for nvidia devices only, no support yet for amd cards. Isn't 1.3 CPU only? So it should not care about a GPU and just run regardless?

OK, I see I need v1.2 for GPU.
I'll give that a go. Thanks very much.

It looks exactly like this: #!/bin/bash while true do ./rhminer -r 40 -s mine.pool.pascalpool.org:3335 -su 1300300-41.0.xeon/noname@gmail.com -cpu -cputhreads 24 sleep 5s done
It has been running for 1-2 months and it's still running without crashing once. I will consider switching back to Windows if it crashes.

OK, ran v1.2 with GPU and it worked. It picked up my GTX770 but there was no real benefit. I was only getting an extra 40-50H/S more and my system was less stable. When I'm getting around 1000H/S from the CPU it made more sense to go back to v1.3 and just use the CPU. I have seen people reporting speeds of 600MH/s from a GPU ( https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1778118.0) so was a little surprised to only get about 50H/S.

This post is from 2017. Now PascalCoin uses RandomHash since nov 2018. Speed are much slower, and the algo is tuned to be much more slower on GPU.

reposted from Discord. Hi community, Every blockchain needs a proper explorer and we know we've been behind in that matter - well, apart from that the wallet is already a full featured explorer from day 1 ;-) Therefore we are happy to announce the new PascalCoin web-explorer at http://new-explorer.pascalcoin.org/ ! This is a public beta release, so expect some hiccups throughout the beta phase. This beta-phase shouldn't take longer than 2 weeks and will then replace the old explorer at http://explorer.pascalcoin.org/.

Here's a comparison of my Ryzen desktop pc and i7 mini pc. My mini pc is better on both metrics - hash/thread and hash/watt.
CPU CORE THREADS CLOCK TDP (WATTS)* RAM RAM SPEED OS Miner HASH/S HASH/THREAD HASH/WATT Intel i7 8750h (Mini PC) 6 12 3,200 45 Dual 16gb 2,400 Ubuntu 18.04 Rhminer 1.3 2,200 183 49 AMD Ryzen 1950X 16 18 3,600 180 Dual 32gb 3,200 Ubuntu 18.04 Rhminer 1.3 3,100 172 17 * CPU Power Consumption only (excluding other PC components)
The Ryzen desktop is actually quad channel, 2 more ram sticks should get me to 5,000 h/s. But still the i7 8750h is more power efficient.

I hope you do it and share my friend..

Any chance of compiling on ARM or macOS? I've tried both but not succeeded. Would love to see rhminer running on more platforms.

Someone started it on the Discord forum, they did not updated me on it. Someone else did it for Monero and realized it was completely pointless in term of hashrate, but was very fun to do anyways MacOS will come at some point in the future. Polyminer1
