NSGminer v0.9.4: The Fastest NeoScrypt GPU Miner

[SundanceKid2020]

RX580:
Gateless Gate: 694 Kh/s in XUbuntu
NSGMiner: max 250 Kh/s

RX580:
Gateless Gate: 694 Kh/s in XUbuntu
NSGMiner: max 250 Kh/s

I have over 500KH/s on an RX480 with no overclocking.

Uh, can anyone help me get this algo running on a B250 expert with 19 cards? I'd be willing to pay at least $100 for the help...

In your pool. Start with "getting started".

Make some money before you pay anybody.

This miner is not the fastest for Nvidia or AMD.

For Nvidia ccMiner 8.15(KlausT-mod)

For AMD Gateless gate

The fastest.

The Gateless Gate outputs half performance of NSGminer on Linux with either 17.40 or 16.40 drivers. Haven't tested it any further.

CUDA performance will be improved soon to match and maybe exceed.

I have tried both NSGminer and Gateless Gate in windows..

Gateless Gate
RX480 750KH
RX570 750KH

NSGminer
RX480 500KH
RX570 500KH

So it's not the fastest.

AMD nsgminer can't connect into?

[FutureMoneyTrends]

Anywhere a stat listing of hashpower for various Nvidia cards for NeoScrypt mining?

did you use the same settings on both, especiall intensity?

[marvel213]

I tried to get the most hashes out of both miners.  Gateless gate is faster.

I don't use Windows, so cannot verify your results or optimise the miner to match them. If you specify your OS version, drivers, SDK, etc. it may help the others.

Enjoy NSGminer v0.9.4 Xmas Edition. Should be a little bit faster on most AMD and NVIDIA GPUs.

[Morbias]

Hi, can I run on my rig 8x1070 Windows an NSGminer v0.9.4? I just have a black screen?
Can someone help with bat file?

altminer.net!

Having same problem, two ATI rigs can't connect, there is no error, just black screen. Other pools are working ok. ccminer (nvidia rig) connects to altminer.net without problems. Seems like some kind of pool issue, as it was all ok before they updated their servers.

Hi all!

Now to something completely different...
I am a neoscrypt-newbie and just started playing around and collecting some Information. According to the readme.md at github this miner is able to use FPGAs to mine neoscrypt coins! Can anyone confirm that??
If yes, it seems to be almost impossible to find (and buy) one of those mentioned in readme.md, do others work, too?

Thanks for the gift!    So far roughly~5-6% hashrate increase across one bank of 6 GPU's.  Will let it run for a few hours to validate on pools.

I can't for the life of me get Neoscrypt mining on my AMD graphics cards.  Can someone send me an updated link to where I could download it?

as the developer, what setting do you recommend to use with the RX 4xx/5xx series? I tried "-g 1 -w 256 -I 18" on RX580 but getting only ~550KH/s

I'm on windows 10 v1703 x64, blockchaindrivers august

gateless gate does 680KH/s with "-g 1 -w 256 -I 14" on same rig.

I'm using NSGminer v0.9.4 on windows. Didn't compile, just downloaded binary.

By default ncurses output doesn't work. When I run the program all letters from console disappears and there is no output. However I can see activity associated to my user in the pool's webpage.

So I tried to user -T option, but then I fails with error:
Unable to get work from pool 0 stratum+tcp://s1.theblocksfactory.com:3332

Have you read your own log? Set up your pool workers first.

The AMD drivers used to deliver the same performance whether on Windows or Linux. It's no more since 2016. When it comes to the RX series, NSGminer does the best on Linux while Gateless Gate seems to be better on Windows.
