Bounty for Open-Sourced XMR/Cryptonight GPU Miner Bounties Thread

[heslo]

Running around 50 degrees c at 99% GPU load. As for RAM usage, I'll check when I'm home

[DES_MX]

I found why the GPU shows such bad performance (one of the reasons).
When running 3D games it enters P0 state (highest performance), when running Miners (CCMiner) it enters P2 state only. Specifically, the core goes to P0 but memory stays at P2, which means the memory never goes past 3000Mhz (6Ghz effective). So you're stuck with +-500hash.

Here's how to fix this:

1. download NVIDIA Inspector 1.9.7.3
2. click overcloicking
3. choose Performance Level[2] - (P2)
4. Click top right corner - Unlock Max
5. Move memory slider to 4000Mhz to start with (stable for me!)
6. Run your normal MSI Afterburner / Precision X and set your OC clocks for CORE
7. Run ccminer and enjoy your new kickass hash... well not really kickass, but I'm getting +-625 hash now. Power usage in MSI afterburner howers between 66-67%, so knowing TDP of 160W the card uses around 105-110W / 625 Hash! Bingo.

You welcome

P.S. This is for the GTX 980 obviously
P.P.S. For whomever is interested - this also makes the card get 7600 Khash in X11 mining without any CCminer tweaks, just 1500core /8000mem settings and +0.075volt

Can you please paste here windows bat example?

For a gtx750ti, donating to the Dev's:

Thanks. I was having problems with that -l

Nope, only closed source from Claymore: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=638915.0

watch

[G2M]

It's been six months.

I feel it's safe to say that there is no interest whatsoever for an open source AMD miner.

The 150 xmr from Keyboard-Mash is no longer available to collect for this bounty.

I will be placing it toward another bounty.

[GingerAle]

eh, not at this time..... XMR starts rocketing up, interest will arise

i try on win 7 64 and win xp
ccminer download from https://github.com/tsiv/ccminer-cryptonight
i replaced my geforce 660gtx which worked well

you probably have to modify some stuff using the autoconfig something or other. its probably in the readme file in that folder.

[chrysophylax]

hi all ...

is there a list of pools that have cryptonight algo mining? ...

even if it there are different pools with different coins ...

I am not getting these results.
running nVidia brand geforce gtx-980
-l 8x112
I tried using Nvidia Inspector and went to Performance Level 2>Unlock Max> move slider to 4000 but when I [Apply Clocks and Voltage] it just auto drops down to default settings... I was able to slowly increase at +20 intervals all the way to 3545 but thats it
also I am running Precisionx with GPU Clock @ +290 (approx 1540Mhz) and Mem Clock at +433

I am bouncing all over the place with my H/s 515 to 178 but mostly in the 430 range

Is the 1 BTC + 500 XMR bounty still available for an open source AMD miner?

My pledge is still good. I can't speak for the others and no funds have been collected so it is up to them.

So is mine for 150 xmr, even though I had withdrawn it previously.

[Lloydimiller4]

I would throw in 100 XMR for an opensource AMD miner
