Cudaminer issue

If I mine @ 1gh.com and the stratum difficulty changes cudaminer will not produce anymore work

Code:
C:\Users\oddball\Desktop\lite_coin_mining\cudaminer-2014-02-09\cudaminer-2014-02-09
\x64>cudaminer.exe --algo=keccak -H 2 -o stratum+tcp://maxpool.1gh.com:17333 -u

anyone using newer lenovo laptops and mining?
I have 2 separate models;
quadro k1100 and gt620, both having problems being seen by cudaminer

Latest drivers installed but these are a mixture of oem. The nvidia website drivers are the oem drivers. (already installed)

We all know what is desired for mining:
Code:
Low power usage
Low temperature
Cheap
Multiplicity: Stack as much cards on ONE board.

Now what you guys are asking, a card with its own USB ports and ARM processor, is stupid.
That means for 10 cards you need 10 USB drives with 10 Linux installations, 10 network connections and 10 power supplies.
Not to forget to mention that the card gets more expensive because of the added logic.
Dude, give it a rest.  Maxwell chips, Nvidia Series 8 (including the test-the-waters GTX750 and GTX750Ti) are already ARM processors. Furthermore, an external addon PCI-e to USB-Hub is what it is... optional. It only adds to the cost of the ones that choose to buy it for mining or otherwise standalone operation. You get the potential of an hub, right?

Then, your 10 power supplies is obviously nonsense. You need ONE or TWO PCI-e power connectors. You need how many PSUs if each offers 8, 10, 12+ PCI-e power connectors?

Nevermind...

So my 3 ASUS ROG MARS cards with 2 GTX 760 chips on one PCB arrived.

I am currently having some thermal issues with the cards not receiving enough air. Some of the fans run 100% and the GPUs still show 98 deg C.
And this is with Yacoin which doesn't max out the TDP fully Wink

Christian

Sorry pal, but i´m not surprised!
I´ve got:
1x GTX 660Ti with standard (reference) cooler
1x r9 280x with one of those dual-fan ""coolers""  Huh  (like the ones those asus rog mars have)
both of them installed in my normal computer case.

It never had any trouble with temperatures with just my nvidia card.
But when I installed my r9 280x, suddenly BOTH cards were running way too hot, my 280x didn´t even use its full clock.
I noticed that the reference cooler managed to get tons of hot air out of my case, however my other card was just "feeding" all its heat into my nvidia card.

Personally, i solved this by buying a watercooler for the 280X Cheesy
Now i can overclock my 660Ti by about 30% (1215Mhz)! without getting really bad temps.
(yes the one with the standard nvidia cooler!)
Of course I could oc my 280X really good now but since cgminer is stupid, i haven´t tried that.

Conclusion: NEVER buy a video card with those stupid two-fan coolers!
They may be a bit more quiet if it´s your only card in the system, but as soon as you have a second card, you´re gonna hate them.

agree 100%... Did the experience yesterday with my new R9-290x twin frozr... alone in the computer pretty cool (and silent too) but if I bring the 780ti it gets complicated pretty fast...
I didn't realize when buying that there wasn't any exhaust... so basically the fans just blow air over the cooler (and in the rest of the case... since it has no way to exit the case... )

So my 3 ASUS ROG MARS cards with 2 GTX 760 chips on one PCB arrived.

Album link here!

Some impressions:
-cool red blinking MARS logo on top. Even cooler than the GTX 780 TI's.
-nice metal back plates, but the plates do take space and so the air convection in the narrow space between adjacent cards is degraded.
-nvidia-smi under Linux (hacked with nvml_fix) shows a TDP limit of 214W per GPU. REALLY?! That's then 428 W per card.

I am currently having some thermal issues with the cards not receiving enough air. Some of the fans run 100% and the GPUs still show 98 deg C.
And this is with Yacoin which doesn't max out the TDP fully Wink

When I forgot to remove some plastic protective cover from the back plates, it got sucked into the fan of the adjacent boards.
I had to cut the power immediately to clean up this mess...

Power draw seems to be 900W when mining near 20 kHash/s.

Were you so exited about the cards that you didn't notice the big warning text on the back? Tongue
Congratulations on getting it running!
Hope you get amazing results Cheesy

A seriously competitive price point.

A socket structure allowing upgrading? This could be a dedicated ASIC-killer based on interchangeable algorithm-specific CUDA units. I can see a lot of money in this (stops writing and phones patent lawyer).

Christian, please -- and this isn't completely related with coin mining -- if you have direct contact with Nvidia and Maxwell chip has indeed an ARM CPU, tell them to add an USB interface (or supply a separate USB hub that links to the first few PCI-e pins) and allow standalone operation. No motherboard, no Intel/AMD CPUs, no 4gb system RAM, no Windows. Just plug the PSU PCI-e power pins and the card boots ARM Linux from a connect usb pendrive

I'd like to add a bit to this request.  Could we also see a parallel port added to the video card.  If i'm going to run Linux, I'm going to need to print.  

Ethernet port would be logical as well, so I can connect to the internet.

Maybe a few sata ports, so I can connect storage harddrives too.  If this is going to run an OS, it should allow me the ability to have decent storage, at a decent speed.  Sata is way faster than usb, even usb3.

And lastly audio output.  Both digital and analog.
Get lost. In this thread and forum, we're not talking about "videocards" but mining devices.

Except you're talking about a video card.  Last I checked, we were mining with cudaminer on....video cards.  Maxwell is the architecture of a GPU, on a video card.  Nvidia don't make mining devices.  They make video cards.

My post was a joke, so calm down.  You're asking Nvidia to turn their *gasp* video card into a standalone computer.  I found it funny you were requesting a company add USB ports to a *gasp* video card.
No, cudaminer runs on more than videocards, for example the Tesla supercomputing PCI-e cards.

Read this thread a few pages back! Nvidia is interested in feedback from coin miners.

This, it's a valid request...it would turn them into scrypt-jane asics :p
I'd buy 999999999 of em.

It seems to me that what we would really like from NVIDIA is something like this:

Single-board computer with room for e.g. 8 CUDA processors, a central ARM (?) CPU with a suitable amount of memory, a basic upgradable BIOS allowing external communication through USB and SATA for example and with enough functions to allow a basic Linux to run, physical layout allowing serious cooling.

A seriously competitive price point.

A socket structure allowing upgrading? This could be a dedicated ASIC-killer based on interchangeable algorithm-specific CUDA units. I can see a lot of money in this (stops writing and phones patent lawyer).

Christian, please -- and this isn't completely related with coin mining -- if you have direct contact with Nvidia and Maxwell chip has indeed an ARM CPU, tell them to add an USB interface (or supply a separate USB hub that links to the first few PCI-e pins) and allow standalone operation. No motherboard, no Intel/AMD CPUs, no 4gb system RAM, no Windows. Just plug the PSU PCI-e power pins and the card boots ARM Linux from a connect usb pendrive

I'd like to add a bit to this request.  Could we also see a parallel port added to the video card.  If i'm going to run Linux, I'm going to need to print.  

Ethernet port would be logical as well, so I can connect to the internet.

Maybe a few sata ports, so I can connect storage harddrives too.  If this is going to run an OS, it should allow me the ability to have decent storage, at a decent speed.  Sata is way faster than usb, even usb3.

And lastly audio output.  Both digital and analog.
Get lost. In this thread and forum, we're not talking about "videocards" but mining devices.

Except you're talking about a video card.  Last I checked, we were mining with cudaminer on....video cards.  Maxwell is the architecture of a GPU, on a video card.  Nvidia don't make mining devices.  They make video cards.

My post was a joke, so calm down.  You're asking Nvidia to turn their *gasp* video card into a standalone computer.  I found it funny you were requesting a company add USB ports to a *gasp* video card.
No, cudaminer runs on more than videocards, for example the Tesla supercomputing PCI-e cards.

Read this thread a few pages back! Nvidia is interested in feedback from coin miners.

This, it's a valid request...it would turn them into scrypt-jane asics :p
I'd buy 999999999 of em.

Anyone here in my thread mining not just for fun, but seriously for profit as well?  Having a farm of AMD cards in your garage or basement?

nVidia is looking to get in touch with miners to interview them about their expectations for mining related products.
