SRBminer is one of the best (if not THE best) around currently. He's just been sharing his latest version 1.6.8 with the community and they've been testing over in his thread. I'll have to spend some time and set it up shortly before the fork. Using the algo switching it provides, I can point my Vegas to MoneroOcean and let it switch between different CN algos. Pretty sweet.

Yes its good that he decided to update his miner. In my opinion he should just readd his miner fee and keep updating the XMR algo every 6 months for a new revenue stream. Currently the XMR Claymore miner is fee free.
I've tried the other software programs out there but they don't work well for any of the older GPUs. Too many issues. Claymore is the only one I have been able to get stable.

Sorry to gone MIA -- update: I cranked up the AMD farm today and started mining XHV - crypotonight-heavy algo
Sorry to be that guy but XHV is no longer cryptonight-heavy. They forked and made cryptonight-haven. Seems that XHV, TUBE still under Heavy algo / variant with new forks Haven for Haven Protocol and Saber for Bittube. Anyways, Cryptonight still alive gives some hope to GPU mining with a lower power bill.
yeah but is it profitable? , ethereum after power costs is still more profitable for my amd rigs.
not the vegas of course the rx cards. My 100 nvidia cards are on eth atm but ill move most back to awesomeminer profit switching, I just hate the slow btc payouts compared to daily eth payouts
The cryptonight V7 algo is good for the really really old AMD GPUs like the Radeon 7970/280X/290.
Basically if you properly undervolt the GPUs you can get them to use the same amount of power as an RX GPU mining ETH, about 130 Watts per GPU.
So if your power costs are high its a good alternative, since the only other algos good for those GPUs (Equihash) is now completely in the ASIC terrority and it used 200 Watts per GPU instead of 130 Watts. Same with the R9 290, you can mine ETH but it uses much more power and due to the DAG thrashing bug the speed is really slow now at 23MH/s instead of the 27MH/s that we got about a year ago.

Bis devs just forked off the fpga miner..latest fpga will work but not the older ones...and that latest fpga will not be in a huge advantage over gpus...check it out guys if it works for you.

biffinex wallets open now
BCI dropped to 0.000175 btc

XHV is on Bittrex.
I am surprised that v7 consumes more power than cryptonight-heavy !
the name "heavy" may have thrown me off here - can anyone confirm about the power consumption ?

You can trade BCI on stex.com (formerly stocks.exchange), but I've never had a positive experience with them and they have a bit of a shady reputation. I'd wait for hitbtc or bitfenix to open their wallets again personally.
stex.com (formerly stocks.exchange) is a good exchange. No problem for me for 10 months.
I made many trading on this exchange. Mostly: neoscrypt, cryptonight and x13 coins.

Phil, where you're gonna trade your BCI?
I'm asking this because they are struggling to be listed on Bitfinex (they are listed, but wallets closed) ... and Bitfinex has that shitty 10k usd limit. I don't know about you, but I don't have that amount in crypto so I can trade on bitfinex ... so it seems we have our hands tied a bit with this coin.. thinking that wallets are not opened on any exchange...
I'm staking right now, but thinking about selling it after a while so I can pay up the electricity...

Stex (nee, stocks.exchange) is everyone's favorite punching bag, but I've been trading on there for about a year and haven't had any major problems. In fact, their new site is nearly as good as Bittrex (heresy, I know!).
