CCminer(SP-MOD) Modded GPU kernels.

[klondike_bar]

-ct 96  -cb 105 have no effect (are already defaults)
-ot 2 has no effect (does it even work right?)

-ct 64 is the default value.
-ot is for the opencl kernel.

You can reach 36.sol with proper memory settings. And -ct 96

i found using the ct 96 dropped me to about 27Sol/s (down from ~32)

In case you missed it, Claymores Zcash is out. Looking at 50sols on a 470. Haven't found a 480.

DAMN...! Still stuck with my 1070 at 32 sols...........

I can't believe nvidia still doesn't have a dev like claymore. There's so much money to be made ever since Ethereum.

Difficulty already climbed to 135k instead of 80k and will probably reach 200k in the next couple of days because of his miner.

diff mean nothing if everyone increased his hashrate, not to mention the block reward keep increase, nvidia can already mine at 50-60 sol, there was that miner for linux with 10% on zcash forum

Well, no shit diff doesn't mean anything if hashrate also increases across the board but that's hardly the case so I fail to see your point.

For clarification, I respect every single nvidia dev I ever had the pleasure to come across and I certainly don't blame anyone (especially not djm) for their choice of distributing their work.

I was just simply pointing out that if maybe one or two devs would work together focusing on a fee based closed source miner, well then they could make a lot of money.

Are people so excited about the Claymore Zcash miner because it supports Windows? My SILENTARMY Zcash miner is as fast as (if not a hair faster) than Claymore. And open source. And zero dev fee.

Maybe I should prioritize Windows support higher?

Yesterday I tested the silent army solver on the 1060 3gb. it does 16sol/s.

Tomorrow I'll start looking into porting SILENTARMY to Nvidia. Seems like you fixed https://github.com/mbevand/silentarmy/issues/6 so please let me know how. That will save me some time tomorrow

I just buildt the latest nicehashminer from git. 0.4a

https://github.com/nicehash/nheqminer

Ok thanks for the info. I thought you had ported the reference silentarmy miner.

... sucking other peoples dick ... right up your alley.

How about we both just say Fuck You and move on.

Picked up 7x480's for fun. MB and parts arrive Monday. Even at $1.75/d after elec during low profitability times it looks like these cards break even quicker, but then I guess they get out paced by newer faster cards and there goes your actual profit. Which makes hobby mining itself seem like madness. You guys got determination. I'm looking for the real business angle here. I work next to countless engineering geniuses with free reign to solicit grants and hire programmers. That's why I gave DJ props. Presumably he made a decent return on his time invested, which is what interests me. I'm debating using my orgs' business incubator to put together a non-profit (no tax on mining, reinvest while gaining market share then go for profit), hire grad CS programmers to make and sell custom miners to the existing big farms (unless they can't consistently code the best versions), and use our EE's to crack asic's on previously gpu-only algos. Because mining alone with US tax, facilities, energy, maintenance, and other overhead costs looks unprofitable or highly risky as an investment over any appreciable time frame.

See. It does have effect. Now you need to increase the memclock and the core clock to the sweetspot. And you need to wait longer for the average results.

36 sols/s

well i'm still making almost the same amount, tnx to the block reward, that's why i said that diff does not count, if the hash increase was ported to nvidia too, the diff increase would be pointless to consider

in fact we are only making less because of the price and not the diff, i see that many coin start to lose value especially for the dumping and not so much for the diff that is increase

Underclocking and undervolting, that's the difference, otherwise I would still use your miner. It is really fast and stable.

If I knew I would be mining zec tomorrow I would make custom bioses for zecmining for every amd gpu I have and use your miner. But I don't. That's why I have to stick with Claymore now. Finding the power/ hash sweetspot for different algos is so much easier in windows (afterburner etc).

That 20/80 rule still works. 20% of miners owns 80% of the hashrate, and they are using mostly linux.

Yup... Not sure who is pedaling it, but the majority of miner are on windows... by a long shot.

That and Claymore is a full featured, almost bug free, very stable, and long term support miner. Very close to what a professional company would put out. The mining community generally does not have software like this. Although miners would use a faster piece of software if available, but if there are choices, they're going to use something like that.

lol, you mean fuck each other or do I have to fuck myself before you're satisfied? Of course that's what you always set out to do, so that makes sense. XD

Profitability goes up and down, before Zcash release it was getting towards the bottom and would probably be pushed sub $1 before the net hashrate would stop growing on Ethereum due to large, long term investments.

SP just said he made 6-7 BTC on his last release which was about 100 hours of programming... That's $4200-4900 or $42-49 a hour... which is pretty good for a job you can do on your own and need no infrastructure or investments to produce besides your own time. If he continued to release it and add features, he probably would've made a lot more off his fee, instead he dropped it.

Claymore is in it for the long run and I'm sure he makes a fuckton of money through % based mining. Surprisingly dev fees haven't caught on around here, instead they go for quick cash and hope to make a wad real fast.

1. Yes, windows, for me it is no problem to install linux but I don't want to ...
2. Claymore has a lot of features, important one is failover pools
3. And Claymore is faster, especially on Tahiti. I didn't run your miner on Linux but guess it makes cpu load. Claymore's doesn't.

p.s. claymore's miner is ~45-55 on well tuned hawaii or polaris and 40-50 on tahiti

no proof till now, but hoping for the best

But we also need for pascal cards.

Looks great! Hope some jackass big farms dont reach out to him to prevent it from releasing this time!

[ioglnx]

Okay something for sure..it neeedd some serious observation since he is modding the cuda dlls to make work what ever he did.
I hope if he releases what he did..it could be reversed to optimise or improve nheqminer..

I read many pages and I see that sp just uses people. He uses open source mining softwares for selling. After he sold them he didn't give update releases. Because of this he didn't give answer to nikolaj's questions. He used here just for his ego and for his show. If you have great expectations from him read back pages.

All my private kernels have updates with speed improvements. In spreadcoin I have 10 releases. It took 1.5 year from release 9 to release 9+. (Pascal) LBRY sp-mod have 3 updates. Release #4 is delayed becuse somebody is selling my work to people like rednow.

I paid for SP9 and never received 9+, as I paid for SPmod LBRY and never received the SP4 that you've referred a lot of times for "your farm". It's pretty clear that you're abusing of donators, promoting versions of your kernels that you never release.

I'm totally disappointed, this is too much. The delay it seems more and excuse than anything else, you cannot blame someone and damage the ones that gave you money, in return of a product. These products, frankly speaking, were pretty underwhelming. 1.8.3 from tpruvot it's ass fast as SP3, but without a 3.3% fee (plus another % lost due bugs in your code and constant reconnections. I've even shown you them, and hadn' t any response in matter).

Blame yourself, not others.

You recieved 9+(cuda 8.0 build) spreadminer 9 is from july 2015.
Release #3 of libry was the fastest when  I released it 3rd of september. 1.8.3 came 3 weeks larer and is slower on all models except the 1070.

@SP - I am a spreadcoin donator - can you please forward me the spreadminer9+ with compile for cuda 8?  I can only reach 6500 mh/s with the latest one you sent me.

[rednoW]

There is open source cuda code - nheqminer - based on Tromp cuda solver. I wonder why sp_ still not added some __launch_bounds to functions and don't sell it as _sp private zcash 1.0 blablabla ))
