Suprnova -> help -> getting started.
Same goes for any pool

DNTM

Can anyone please walk me through the steps to setup the GPU miner with SuprNova?

You're welcome. I always encourage users to verify my performance claims.

Thanks for your cpuminer, joblo.

Also a lot of "Stratum authorize answer id is not correct" and "Stratum authorization failed".

I know someone who has been unusually quiet in these forums lately who could have made a play with
private Cuda miners.  But I agree AWS users were the big winners.

I'm just speculating because I don't know how much lyra2 is left in Cuda after Nanashi doubled the
performance. I think the nature of the algo is the biggest impediment to GPU performance.

I've really enjoyed some of the new CPU algo development recently with multiple devs contributing to
optimize in the open. It seems to have motivated some others to give it a try. It's nice to see continued
interest in CPU mining.

My contribution is coming soon, maybe a little late but still significant.

Thanks for yours.

Now why would the devs have a private optimized miner for the coin when we know they get a portion of everycoin mined plus a portion of whatever is sold on exchanges. If you want an optimized miner real badly talk to wolf0 he's selling an AMD optimized sgminer kernel for 0.25 btc a piece 

Also a lot of "Stratum authorize answer id is not correct" and "Stratum authorization failed".

@ocminer :

Check your pool offline more times .

line 2233 of main.cpp:
 static const int64 nTargetSpacing = 10 * 60; // 10 minute blocks

* 1440 minutes in a day, divided by 10:
* 144 blocks a day (diff retargets every 6 blocks, so lets say 147 blocks/day just for arguments sake, perfect timing like an optical distributor).
* one block has 40 coins, times 0.00192500btc per coin making each block worth 0.077btc/block.
* 0.077btc per block times 147 blocks a day - means the chain is worth 11.319btc/day for mining alone.

we dont even need to know the proper bitcoin/scrypt derivative (2^32 vs 2^48 vs ..) difficulty algorithm. why?

* average hashrate of 2800mh on suprnova's xzc pool
* world hashrate of 7000mh on suprnova's xzc pool
* we assume approximately 40% of the blocks will be found by suprnova (more if ocminer uses candy).

so 11.319btc/day times 0.40 equals 4.52btc/day via suprnova.

* since we know that suprnova has 2800mh, we can slot out figure in there (lets say that your uncle was ec2 and you managed 20mh).
* = (20 / 2800) * 4.52btc/day = 0.03228571btc a day mined all day

yes, its not 100% accurate.
blocks are found early/late, orphaned.
certain types of pools dont let others know when theyve found blocks, in a timely fashion.

the best part? this is probably grade 5/6 arithmetic.
dont forget your lunchbox.

(regarding ragging on djm34's miner, feel free to drag your memory clock all the way down to 150mhz and take note of the results, hint on GPU: run more threads than you would normally... x2 or x3)
