[ANN] ccminer 2.3 - opensource - GPL (tpruvot)

[Epsylon3]

you are not at the right place to ask that but i dont think that exists...

[MrTowelie]

Why did you specify cuda version 7.0 is slower? I have a 2 gtx 680 and I was wondering what was the best cuda version to get optimal hashrate with x11 algo?

[Epsylon3]

the best is 6.5

[MrTowelie]

Whats the best algo for nvidia cards?

hi I've downloaded the 1.6.5 version, but there is no "ccminer.exe" executable anywhere in the folder.  please help me out here.

Did your virus software move it to quarantine? The file is safe just double check I have been using for awhile since the use on conf files. I run batch files on a schedule and the conf file helps by implementing a backup pool.

Hi,

What is the minimum CUDA Compute version that GPU has to support in order to use this ccminer? I have a couple of older Quadro GPUs with CUDA Compute capability 1.1 ... will this work? I'm only looking to play around with them, I'm well aware that these old GPUs are inefficient and inappropriate for mining...

Kind regards,

You'll need to compile it with an older version of cuda that supports compute 1.1, if it can be done at all.
I think it's a long shot.

Would like to request a Windows compilation for CCminer 1.6.6 pretty please!

[Epsylon3]

Will try to do a release in the next days...

The latest ccminer that support compute 1.2:

please be kind for the planet, recycle these damn old things

Thanks for your effort :-)

tpruvot, thanks for the new release, it is really good to see always up-to-date ccminer development and releases! Here is a small 0.1 BTC tip for you: https://blockchain.info/tx/669606aff5c01f9da376384a61d9871b5704f4eb52c4c2d885e6611b05d4e6ed

And keep up the good work (I wish that there would be someone who would also keep sgminer as much up to date as ccminer is ).

[IMweasel]

Superb work once again!
I did notice though,that the DJM edition performs up to 500 KH/s better for the Lyra2v2 algo...on 780Ti's with identical intensity set(20)

Thanks.. Really appreciated

Lyra2 v2 will be improved when i will have a bit more of free time..

tpruvot ccminer with sp_ hashrates would be a dream come true :-)
actually it wouldn't be impossible if we find a way to work together and get some donations in the process...
maybe Chrysophylax donation links and multipool is the way.

sp work is not always easy to reuse, i mostly search the best performance on linux and that doesnt always match with windows :p

But i can generally reuse a part of its work, or at least i can see where there are rooms of improvement.

I recently tried the most profitable algos (quark, x11, neoscrypt) in your fork compared to sp_'s and they are significantly slower.
I mine on linux only, with compute 5.2 cards and cuda 6.5.
I made the latest 10% enhancement over his neoscrypt kernel (which is actually djm34 code): I think you can safely use it on your fork, the only caveat is that it doesn't include compute <5.0 code.
