Very informative post
What OS, drivers, GPUs do you use? Do other CUDA miners (for example https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1707546.0) work on your system ?

Appreciate the quick reply!

Windows 10 x64, Nvidia 1080 x2, drivers 397.31, EWBF's Zcash CUDA miner. 0.3.4b works on my system.

 I used the default config as it seems proper for Nvidia, and tried disabling all but first 2 devices in the config but same results. Anything for me to try?

Hi eXtremal,
I`m with Win10 388.31 drivers, all cards are on 85% TPD +150 core 500 memory and 1060-6 are with 0.21 cpd , 1070 are with 0.31, 1070 ti with 0.34 cpd . What is TPD on your tests? Do you think 388.31 is the reason?

I use stock settings, not used any overclock utility.
What is it TPD? Do you mean TDP or power limit?
Drivers 388.31 not tested (only 390.xx and 397.31), and it can be reason of low performance, we don't have enough statistics for NVidia.

Error 999 on initialization (cuInit CUDA driver call) is "unknown error", NVidia does not provide documentation about it. Google founds some discussion.. reason of this error usually broken driver installation and conflicts with other software (but google found nothing about Windows 10, only Linux issues). You can try cleanup and reinstall drivers, try 390.76 and run miner with administrator rights.

Thank you! Turns out after a system restart, everything is now working.

Where can we find an optimized miner for Nvidia cards?

Linux binaries also released: http://coinsforall.io/distr/xpmclient-nvidia.tar.gz
This archive contains both Windows & Linux version of miner.

I've had similar issues before but solved them with persistence. It could be that you are using the wrong wallet.dat altogether (check the date the backup was made, it could help) and or it is in fact corrupt. If its worth it, then there are a few ways to get the keys. I suggest you try starting the client with the salvagewallet option and or try the wallet.dat in the newest official client first to see if you can salvage the keys or the wallet.dat itself might just work. This is to make sure its not isolated to the xpmserver if thats what you are running it on. If you are running it on the official client then do the reverse and try the xpmserver client.

Hello,

I am getting the following error:

Error:218
failed with error CUDA Error Invalid PTX at C:/build/xpmclient/src/cudautil.cpp:88

I am testing it in my PC that have just one Nvidia 1060. In the config, I have only changed the payout address.

Thank You

HI eXtremal,
thanks for your work.
I would ask you where is problem I have 1x 1080ti and CPD= 0,63 last day but I earned only about 0,7XPM?
thanks for answer.

Driver version?  May be too old drivers, not compatible with CUDA 9.1

I need know XPM addesss, send in PM.

what's a mininum amount for payment at xpmforall.org?

[g.r.e.e.n]

eXtremal  thanks you fo answer.

I woul like to ask you what setting is better for profit.
default 26, 33, 36

or setting in optimized version of miner?
multiplierLimits = ["24", "31", "35"];

depends on pool due profit?

thanks a lot

Had issue with CUDA version even if it submiting shares, pool did not see it, some 12h ago
address: AX1BYX5hK1ZSfQQZSCwWMC8PNsnkja4Kwe

opencl version now works

I guess cuda version is straight port of opencl as I expect NV GTX1070 to be 2x faster then AMD 290x, but I guess prime sieve/algo is so complex no one wants to dig it

[tar1s]

NV GTX1070 to be 2x faster then AMD 290x

cool
But not in this life.

default 26, 33, 36

or setting in optimized version of miner?
multiplierLimits = ["24", "31", "35"];

24,31,35 better.
Both pool gives same profit, but coinsforall better in use.

multiplierLimits = ["24", "31", "35"];

Default pool changed to coinsforall.io in CUDA version config, what pool "ignores" your shares?

I guess cuda version is straight port of opencl as I expect NV GTX1070 to be 2x faster then AMD 290x, but I guess prime sieve/algo is so complex no one wants to dig it

I can expain why NVidia cards like 1070/1070Ti cannot be faster than 290X.

[cirlama]

what's a mininum amount for payment at xpmforall.org?

xpmforall.org: 4 XPM minimal payout, payments every hour, no delay now.
coinsforall.io: configurable payout (minimal 0.1 XPM), manual request supported, payments every 10 minutes.

as per eXtremal answer

what would ever make you think that
1070 isnt 2x a 290x at anything nor is a 1080ti and neither 1070 or 1080 have FP64 like a 290x/390x does
