I just added support for Quark mining in my sph-sgminer GPU miner. Only source code is provided. Check out this thread for details: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/ann-sph-sgminer-multi-coin-multi-algorithm-gpu-miner-added-marucoin-475795. Speed is ~1.6 MH/s on R9 290.

It works.  Getting 1.45MH/s with my 7970

I would call it a failure.

I mean if you're not using Windows (with all those Microsoft and malware 'services', anti-virus scans and viruses running the background), that's hardly any advantage.

And I think the CPU miner can be optimized more.

Well, from a profit point of view, that is the first thing I thought - failure.
But from an ASIC resistant (key word, resistant) point of view, that is interesting. If a top GPU gets 1.45Mh/s (@300 watts) and my AMD FX8350 gets 850Kh/s (w/extra air cooling @ 120 watts or so) that is interesting. But the CPU uses less than have the watts (barely) and costs half as much (app.)
Wait, that actually seems in line, no? What "should" a card like that get, theoretically? Seems close to what it "should" get.
My R9 290 gets 870kH/s on Scrypt coins.

On second thought, not bad. If it was just profitable to mine QRK (that will come I hope.)

IAS

who said anything about using 300 watts per GPU?

my 4 7970s normally pull about 1150 watts according to my Kill A Watt.  It is only pulling 580 watts for 1.45 MH/s/GPU.
And as for mining QRK, well, obviously.  But there are other coins released based on the quark algo, you know.  And their value is yet to be determined.

I said 300 watts as my card is the R9 290, as I said later on. 1150 or 1200, not a big difference. Not sure of your point there?

I'm more here to support Quark coin, not so much to make money. I do mine other coins for that, so it is good to know, perhaps a hedge.

I really like the idea of a coin that is ASIC resistant, key word being "resistant". Still early in the experiment though.

People should realize somethings are best done by a CPU (if not ASIC).

I bet someone has a more optimized CPU miner.

With CPU you can always buy server boards with 4 CPU sockets. That's a lot cheaper than 4xR9 290. Both running cost and initial buyout.

Then we got cloud mining...

And then compared to the power the GPU takes, you may not like to mine with a GPU as a whole.

I've got 8500 QRK for sale.  Will sell for 0.80 Bitcoins which is slightly under the BTER rate.
and no, i dont use BTER anymore after my last deposit took over 48 hours.

i also have 300,000 rabbit coin left.. but every time I mention it I get 50 PM's Sad

you can try http://www.reddit.com/r/Quarkmarket to sell.

I guess in crypto world there is no too big to fail company. Mtgox knows that when they let people withdraw btc.. they will be left with 0 BTC. And nobody will ever trust them again.

Most alt coins are affected by the down market of BTC because in order to buy altcoin, you need to go to dollar > BTC > altcoin.
Is there anyway for us to make USD > Quark?

All the places you can buy Quark.
