You guys are awesome  Grin
Will try this in few hours.

I have a Gtx 680 and gigabyte r9 280x. At first I had to play around with the --gpu-platform command to mine with the 280x, but at some point it got fixed, with a driver update or something. Anyway, now I don't need any special settings, cgminer automaticly uses the gigabyte, and cudaminer uses gtx 680 Smiley

I'm doing it too and it works perfectly with a GTX 770 and a R9 280x, but a dummy plug was required in my case. If you are using your nvidia card for games and stuff (which you should) you have to plug it to the motherboard's slot closer to the cpu. And then use --gpu-platform 1 in cgminer to select the ati one.

cudaminer/ccminer will detect only nvidia cards, but sgminer will detect all opencl devices (nvidia card included).
So for sgminer you need to run one time with option -ndevs so it displays all the opencl devices so you can select those corresponding to amd card then when running you will need to use something like

sgminer --gpu-platform #platform_number

As a side note to anyone solo mining jackpot coin. Right now i have 3 750Tis solo mining on the new code, found 3 blocks in 12 hours. Much better then i was getting in the pools

Hello all. I've been using cudaminer for my 750tis but wanted to give JPC a try so this is my first time using ccminer. I've done a good bit of reading on this forum and the commands look close enough to cudaminer that I should be able to figure it out but I can't quite get it to work properly and definitely need some help at this point.

Basically, the .bat file seems to run fine except it only gives me a new "Stratum detected new block" every minute or so. No hash information, no hash acceptance confirmation. I checked the dashboard on miningpoolhub.com and there's definitely no shares being counted.

I'm using the v0.7 release from a few days ago. Here's my .bat file (my username and such is filled in properly in the real one):

ccminer50.exe -a jackpot -d 0 -o stratum+tcp://us-east1.jackpotcoin.miningpoolhub.com:20484 -O username.worker:password

Any ideas?

I'll have a look, but I thought there was a website which was giving some pre-moded bios (not much into the undervolt thing... I want more power grrrr  Grin)

It's quite easy to do it yourself with KeplerBiosTweaker & nvflash.
The advantage is that you could easy tweak it to the sweet spot of your cards.

A guide how helped me to get into:

i am planning to add 1 more rig to my house.Do you guys think buying 6x750ti is best bang for the buck?Thinking of either asus OC-2GD5 or msi N750 Ti TF 2GD5/OC  

Avoid ASUS at all cost! Hard to OC, has bad memory cooling, expensive!
My suggestion would be: Palit Dual, PNY (if available) and EVGA SC!


i only have zotac,msi and asus in my country best choice would be msi N750 Ti TF 2GD5/OC  ?

Avoid ASUS. Palit/EVGA would be a better option but if you can't get it, Zotac or MSI is fine. Choose cheaper model with higher clock if possible.

BTW concerning Jackpotcoin. As I predicted this coin was dumped hard. Nice coin like Fugue which gives us nvidiaer more advantage than AMD, but it won't last without any proper PR/marketing/usage.


No this one is pretty mediocre. Try the OC version.
I have a random gainward, non oc it seems to do pretty well... I don't know if the brand is really important here...
It runs in the case close to the gtx780ti at 53°C (55°C on scrypt-jane)

Do you know where I can find the mod bios for gtx750ti ?

you can change bios by youself in KeplerBiosTweaker v1.27
with this program i'm undervolt my 750Ti and set higher clocks. now my msi 750ti work fine at [email protected] VDDC (core voltage)
mining MyriadCoin now at 44% TDP of my 750Ti

Because manufacture OC version gives more hashrates without the hassle of overclock yourself Wink. I got 5-10% morre without doing anything. But the price of course 5% more Wink
not really important with nvidia cards, they seem to endure almost anything (true with 780ti, apparently also 750ti)
 however I am happy that my R9 was factory OC... such a pain to OC...

Anyone had a chance to run nvidia+cudaminer and ati+cgminer in one computer? Is there a special option or settings for cudaminer?

I've ran that in the past...mining yacoin on both 4 r7 240s and a gtx 780.

Just make sure you install the nvidia drivers first, then plug monitor on amd cards and install catalyst.
After that you need to get some dummy plugs and voila.

I don't think it'll work at all using linux.

Great to hear that!

So with your previous setup, cudaminer will detect 1 GPU and cgminer with 4 GPU? with no special syntax or something?

Thanks!
cudaminer/ccminer will detect only nvidia cards, but sgminer will detect all opencl devices (nvidia card included).
So for sgminer you need to run one time with option -ndevs so it displays all the opencl devices so you can select those corresponding to amd card then when running you will need to use something like

sgminer --gpu-platform #platform_number

I'm mining on cloudminers yes (have only one 750ti so hard to solo mine Wink). With a slight overclock, the card get stuck and I have to reinstall the driver...

well, I compiled myself and after used bigjme cudaminer but I'm stuck around 3MH/s :/ (I've got peak at 3.8Mh/s but the hash rate is moving fast from 2.1 to 3.8 MH/s)
are you mining on a pool? waited for diff to settle?

Definitely!

Also, the most efficient combo, and you can mine the magic nvidia coins exploited by the Christian duo.
Christian duo is the creator of the cuda miner?

Yup, they're the devs of CUDA- and CCminer
