Claymore, on what hardware? 290 290x or 280x?
April 14, 2014, 04:56:25 AM
I tried your link I am getting ~3500cpm with -a2 (a1 gives around 3000cpm for me).
I will put 6000cpm this night over pts and see how it goes (I have just finished to pay the licence fee for the xpm soft... with the free one
... curiosity kills the cat...).
Can you compare the speed between paid and free gpu mining programs?I will put 6000cpm this night over pts and see how it goes (I have just finished to pay the licence fee for the xpm soft... with the free one
... curiosity kills the cat...). no... they don't use the same metrics...
(claymore 4ch/h and gpuprime 10ch/day and nothing else... no verbosity at all)the free one seems faster though and it's a pitty the author won't give a version working in solo...
according to one of the 4 numbers displayed on screen by gpuprime, it runs on my 290x at 1.5~1.6 10ch/day.
I got one block after running for 36hours (24 more hour didn't bring anything.... )
With claymore, I found 6 blocks (on pool, so the payout in way less) including a 12ch over about a week minus the 60hours of running on gpuprime.
So for me claymore wins (and it displays things when it runs so you can check it is really running...) but it is always difficult to compare pure solo mine to pool (I always find more blocks in pool than in solo for some reason)
gpuprime uses a lot more the cpu and the gpu usage is all over the place while with claymore the gpu usage is stable at 99% all the time and I don't hear much the cooler of my cpu...
So in my opinion gpuprime is not well optimized (and slower than claymore) and clearly overpriced since the difficulty increase by more than 0.01 each days.
So unless you have a lot of hashing power to use (35 xpm/card ouch !!!!
you need a R9 295x to make it profitable), claymore is the way to go April 14, 2014, 04:32:23 AM
What a grate difference - if I mine scrypt or scrypt N the system (6xti750) it pulls 490-500w and if i mine heavy it pulls 240w.
What is the normal hash for heavy now, i get 6700khs per card. Is it ok?

750ti's get around 12MH/s
You have to run 2 instances of ccminer per card. And your power usage should go back up a lot

I've managed to get 14x 750Ti working now. Any idea on what's the best coin to mine until the new Groestl miner is released?
I was thinking either Groestlcoin, scrypt and scypt-n profitability might be really close at this time. Assuming your're mining the best scrypt and scrypt-n coins

If it was me I would do BTS/PTS until the difficulty increases. With that many cards you will have about 780-840 cpm. 11,802 cpm would net about 4-5 BTS/PTS per day at $3.78 per share. $18.90 per day is good right now. You only have about 2 1/2 days until the difficulty rises. Then switch to something else.
By the way nice choice. I am up to 6 750ti's now and still adding whenever I can.
https://bitsharestalk.org/index.php?topic=2183.0
Version 0.5 is made just for the 750ti's. It will work on other cards but this is specifically for the ti's.
I use it for YPool. I am mining and holding the shares until the next DAC comes out. Hopefully the nesxt comes out. Last time they went to about $23 a share.
NRS is a CPU-only coin,I believe. Ain't gonna be profitable unless you have a server farm. But there's the future DAC's and everything,so it may be be worth investing in.
However, it won't take long to get a gpu miner (private or public is another problem...)
I tried the ptsgpu on the 780ti: around 1700cpm adding the amd I get 3000cpm which is not a lot
considering the other pts amd only soft. is doing 3000cpm with the R9 only...
The bus usage is around 80%... (with some optimization, it could certainly do much better)
Sorry been out doing yard work.
Try this for AMD cards: https://bitsharestalk.org/index.php?topic=2598.0 version 2.2 works best. Use this in the bat (-t 1,1 -a 1) without parenthesis. Running the same card twice works best. I get 3,320 cpm without an overclock on a R9 280X. Some people say they get 3,400-3,575 cpm with good overclock.
I believe the Nvidia is only for the xmpt protocol or whatever it is called.

Very good point, i will wait patiently

So, Christian(s), I'd like to pose the question that I think we'd all like the answer to: When is the Exahash ver. of cudaminer/ccminer going to be released?
we're still in development mode here. Replacing the thrust library with CUDPP for stream compaction in the divergent sections
of the quarkcoin and animecoin algorithms. Hoping to gain 20% more speed.
Also X11 work will have to be started soon (but maybe we can try to do an interim release first).
Christian
Take your time. We have
Blocks to retarget: 2132
Measured: 47.12%
Estimated difficulty: 0.03482699 (323.68%)
Time to retarget: 1d 16:47:32 (2014-04-15 23:10:20 UTC+9)
until we need the miner.
Just kidding.
Thanks for the work.

Hi Christian,
Just out of curiosity do you have a beta branch of ccminer in your git repository. I wouldn't mind being a tester for the linux builds.

absolutely not, or do you want the AMD miners to copy our fast groestl implementation? (this would probably mean that AMD high
end GPUs would outpace high end nVidia GPUs by factor 2).

Ive been lurking on these forums just over a week now and i thought i would share my experience with the 750ti and linux.
I have just recently got into mining, i run a 24/7 server anyway so thought i would stick a few 750ti's in there. I run Arch Linux and have been flicking between Execoin, HeavyCoin, GroestlCoin and Vertcoin. Currently groestlcoin atm.
My 3 video cards are EVGA SC Single fan models. All plugged into USB 1-16x powered risers. Using the integrated intel video for my monitor.
I have managed to overclock all 3 to GPU - 1290mhz Mem - 3200(6400) mhz using a modded bios. All seem stable.
Regarding the software, ive not had a single crash and its been mining a week of various coins so from my perspective the software seems very stable. Hats off to cbuchner1 & co for the great work on ccminer and cudaminer.
I have downloaded all the software/wallets from there respective git repositories and compiled ok. Had to do some linking of some libraries to begin with but subsequent compiles have been fine.
Power consumption is 160w from the wall. (groestlcoin)
Some interesting cli commands for querying your GPU's

Um, Nvidia had the first GPU miners for PTS, waaaaaaaay back in January. For a brief while it was a CUDA coin. OpenCL miners came a few weeks later.
ptsgpuz5.0 supports Maxwell now as well.
