sp_ Why do you use an intensity level ? Why not just over-clock? Or under-clock?

Clocks mean little if you're not running enough work items.

When I run with the -i at best it gives me the same hash rate. But sometimes does a hard crash.
Edit: On the 750ti

[sp_]

Anyone else have their 750ti cards hashing at different speeds with each restart of the miner? sometimes it mines at 800kh per card, sometimes 200-2400, sometimes 2400 and occasionally 3050-3100kh/s per card. I've just been restarting the miner until it settles on the higher hashrate, but is there a simpler way? on a related note, when it comes up with the lower end hash speed the entire system laaaaags right down to a crawl until I manage to kill the process (win 8.1)

I have reproduced this on one of my rigs. I will try to merge the kernals into the djm34 fork. I think this version is more stable. But after xmax. Now I have some days of.

Yeah, let's ditch xtranonce support, the api and the nice colors <.< I don't think it's useful to waste your time on merging your code into his, might be better to try and locate that bug.

Hello, I have a drop performance in lyra2re in the last build from near 680 to near 460 with GTX 750 Ti from previous build.  

[chrysophylax]

Bether to buy 970 cards. More hash, bether density

Performance rough numbers with the new miner(x11) build 21

980 9500 KHASH (+-500KHASH
970 7500 KHASH (+-500KHASH)
780ti 6100 KHASH (+-500 KHASH)
750ti  2850 KHASH (+-200KHASH)

I testet build 21 on the 650TI yesterday and it was able to find shares. (quark). Compute 3.0 is probobly fixed for most algos now.

960 is coming also, it seeems a good card for the price, but the sweet spot will probably remain with the 90

i have

been running for 30mins at the moment with the 6 x gigabyte 70ti oc cards ... stock clocks under linux ( fedora 19 x64 ) except for -i 20.5 ...

results below ( about 30 seconds ago ) ...

anyone know to oc these cards under linux?

If you have the gigabyte windforce edition (with a 6pin powerconnector) you can upgrade the bios to Windforce Black. Should do 3MHASH on standard clocks under linux. (The upgraded bios will not work on Windows)

i have 11 of those ones - about to purchase quite a number of the low profile ones ( without the 6pin power socket ) same performance but no firmware upgrade ...

i might test that soon actually - have a look into it - but i doubt if it would be viable to do so as they will lose resale value if they are to stop working with windows ...

tanx for the heads up though ...

#crysx

750ti are a waste of space and hardware, for every 2.5 rigs you could have 1 rig that do the same hashing 970 and 3:1 with 980

not if i dont want to pop my power circuit on a regular level ...

the 750ti oc is powerless now ( low profile edition ) AND only around the $170AUD mark which uses one 875W PSU ... as opposed to the GTX970 which requires two power connectors ( 6 pin and 8 pin ) which means you need 2 x 875W PSU running in tandem ( or a large 1200-1500W - which escalates the price dramatically )  if you want more than 4 cards in a single machine and it costs around the $540AUD mark ... which means more cost per machine and a higher $/hash ratio ...

no doubt that the GTX 970 is one hell of a gutsy card - but the cost of the machines to build becomes almost ridiculous ...

either way - i have tested the non-powered ( no power connector to the card ) low profile 750ti and am getting some nice hashrates ( approx 2700-2750) at approx 60W per card ...

this power consumption and the price that they are at the moment - make them the better value card for a stock build ... if you OC and play with the BIOS ( if you have the windforce edition as sp_ was mentioning ) it gets even better value ...

here is the latest stats on a single low profile gigabyte 750ti low profile - latest build under linux a few moments ago - x11 ... in case you wanted to know ...

a little bit less hashrate - but so much less space and im testing the power when i get back into the office ...

SP, would you kindly add a tag in git when you release a beta?  It's hard to know if i'm on the release commit or building from an in between version.

Hi SP. I have a little problem, i have 2GTX 970s (ASUS) in SLI. Mining works fine, but whenever i close the miner my computer hangs ( i have to hard reboot it)
any ideas?

normally ive seen this happen when they are in sli ...

when the cards are not in sli - they usually work better at mining and they dont lock up ...

this is not the rule - just the many miners i have witnessed ...

try removing sli and see ... id be interested in knowing how you fare with it ...

Here is the same thing when I enable my 980 Gtx 3way SLI, for mining I disabled Sli and it goes ok.

i dont sli any of the systems in the farm - neither AMD or nVidia - so i wasnt really sure what would happen ...

but have seen many many systems mine - but crash badly ...

mid january ill be setting up a new farm based on nvidia and ccminer ... thats the WHOLE farm ... so will ill be testing ccminer as much as i can before then ...

i have the test system ready and running with one card at the moment but will up it to 6 cards tomorrow ...

if all goes well - and i dont see why it shouldnt - then ill spec it and duplicate it when the rest of the components come in within the next two weeks ( as long as everything goes to plan of course ) ...

and no sli for any of those either ...

Right now Epsylon3 is working on 1.5.2-git.   When he releases 1.5.2 final, there should be a note in the box at the top of the code saying that it is final.      --scryptr

I am mining x13 at the moment.  When mining x11, I get rates around 17,900kh/s for my rigs.  My rigs are Linux, with Ubuntu 14.04.1, and the cards run at stock speeds.

My fast 750ti rig has 6x EVGA FTW cards:

scryptr image

The EVGA FTW cards have dual fans and 6-pin power connectors.

My second 750ti rig has 6x EVGA SC cards:

scryptr image

The EVGA SC model has no 6-pin connectors, and only a single fan. But it allows the use of a very modest 600W power supply, with only 1 (unused) PCI-e power connector.       --scryptr

those are damn good hash rates ...

i get about 2700KH each on the powered gigabyte 750ti oc and about 2600KH each for the unpowered low profiles ones in x11 ... using the latest build of ccminer compiled under 64bit linux ...

this is with fedora 19 x64 and each of those machines are running 875W thermaltake bronze ...

im sure the evga cards are supposed to be better than the gigabyte ones when it comes to hashrates ... anyway - its only a few hashes diff ...

still - the hashrates seem to be progressing with ccminer ...
