CCminer(SP-MOD) Modded GPU kernels.

will get testing done later this afternoon and see how it goes with quark ...

My tests didn't go so good. Both yaamp and nicehash seems to disconnect the miner to set a new nonce all the time. If you are on a slow connection you end up with 10% rejects.(mostly job not found)
I would stick with the non -g parameter for now, or solomine.

With 10% rejects and 8% fee you will earn 18% more just by mining the coins directly.

On the gigabyte oc 750ti(win32) -g 5 -i 21.8 is showing +250-500Khash in the miner, but on the pool -1Mhash or more because of the rejects/fees.

ok - tanx mate ...

via donate.granitecoinx.com:7919 - i manage to get around the 30MH on the pool - but the miner shows around 35.5MH ...

this maybe yaamp ...

when i get back to the office in an hour - ill change the stratum proxy to westhash and see if that makes a difference ...

so your suggestion is to just keep it at the 'standard' settings and leave -g out of it for now ...

well - ill get that sorted when i get back ...

tanx mate ...

edit - just had a look at the miner - extranonce2 size=2 errors ... this is definitely from yaamp ...

will change to westhash as soon as i can ...

edit - changed ... all running via westhash now ... stratum+tcp://donate.granitecoinx.com:7919/ ...

see it here - https://www.westhash.com/index.jsp?p=miners&a=12&addr=1CTiNJyoUmbdMRACtteRWXhGqtSETYd6Vd ...

The problem is that yaamp is switching the extranounce too often. Here is an example the extranonce size is changed 8 times in 1 minute.
And when the change is only within 3 seconds the miner can get rejects with invalid extranonce size.

When I removed the extranonce support, yaamp is still forcing the miner to reconnect. this is slow and causes more errors.

When a extranonce is changed, the gpu needs to throw away all the work it has done, and restart. This meens lost hashing power, and lower rates on the pool.

exactly ... i get very similar stats on the worker also ...

though can i safely assume you are using the -g parameter on yours? ... i can only get about 5500KH - whereas you are showing about 6500KH ...

i have just edited the last post mate ... changed the link to westhash ...

i need to disappear for about 2 hours - but will be back to see how it goes when i get back ...

hopefully - westhash will be more stable ...

another thing also sp ...

could you pm me your ip address to allow access to something i want to show you? ...

it 'may' help in a small way ...

I used a stable overclock. If your card has a 6pin power connector, you can overclock it stable without any problems for 1MHASH per card extra hash. You can do the oveclocking in the bios.

extract the bios from this card:

the cards are the oc lp - non powered ...

ill leave them alone i think ...

if it will help - i can allow your ip only to have full access to the stratum proxy itself ...

so far - only my ip is allowed from the office ( which is why i cant really change much while im on the road or home ) ...

from there - you can see each worker attached - each hashrate - changes settings ( which isnt really necessary unless you need to test ) - etc ...

it is limited to a few features as all the featureset is not implemented completely in this version - but it may help in the diagnosis of the miner ...

so i thought i would offer you the same access as i have for a period of time for testing ...

if it helps - then great - if it doesnt - let me know and ill close the ip and port ... ...

nah. I'll pass. I am on the other side of the globe in a different timezone. a proxy will just slow down the mining and give more rejects.

all good ...

it the donation stratum proxies im talking about ...

setup on aws servers - so they are on the other side of the globe for me anyway ... probably closer to you ...

thought id ask anyway mate ...

have you seen the mining on westhash? ...

seems a great deal more stable than yaamp ...

Thanks for all the hard work, sp_.

Hey, what coin(s) are the buyers of hashpower at west/nice hash and yaamp mining? Specifically, Quark algorithm, as I believe DASH is one of the most popular for X11.

I mean, if they see it as wise to pay to have other people's rigs mine for them, I am interested in what coin(s) they are seeing as worth it.

Anyone? Bueller?

Doing good, but the hashrate is fluctating alot
from
22MHASH to 55.52MHASH. I think the difficulty is too high. You might want to set a fixed difficulty f.ex -p d=0.04 to get a more accurate result.

ok - in the office now ...

will set the difficulty as per your suggestion ...

lets see how it goes ...

support is what you need mate - donation support for the awesome work you ( and so many other devs ) are doing to make all this happen ...

so - you are welcome ... ...

On yaamp if you click on the right page you will find this:

If you want to support the coins you should but your coin adress in the miner field instead of you btc adress. Then the mined coins will not be traded on the exchange, but sendt directly to your wallet.

[chrysophylax]

ok - d=0.04 set for testing on westhash quark ...

you could have changed that if you had access to the stratum ... hehehe ...

will leave it for a a couple of hours ... donating while we test ...

New spike in the hashrate. 62MHASH. That is 10,33 MHASH per card

The average rate is growing slowly. 35.14MHASH now. getting closer to the miner output wich is 36..

the spike was probably from the restart of the stratum proxy ...

lots of shares being accepted really quickly ...

but is starting to stabilize ...

im averaging 33500KH here on the miner ...

[chrysophylax]

for some reason - the stratum is forcing a change in the diff level ... even though the diff has been set to 0.04 ...

extranonce changes maybe? ...

edit - found the issue ... the stratum proxy can allow the worker passwords to be forwarded rather than its own ( which is why d=0.04 wasnt working ) ...

no that the miner password is being forwarded to the pool - the diff level is 0.04 ...

lets see if it stays that way now ...

edit - nup ... its westhash forcing it to change diff ...

working on it to see if there is a way of doing it ...

I was wondering the same. We're mining the coin at block ~1,620,000. What is that coin??
MUE @ 660,000
SRC  @ 865,000
DIME @ 820,000
QRK @ 1,960,000
BTQ @ 1,143,000
BITCRY @ 93,500

There are few less known quark coins, some dead, but none @ 1,620,000
