I´m new here and have some questions about whole stuff of VRM mining.
I hope someone can answer my questions and they sound not as too stupid. Sorry I´m a beginner.
Why there are two different stratum ports on vrm2 and what are they for?
When the limit is about 1kh/m in vrm2, how there can be people with over 900KH/s in the Pool statistics ( Contributor Hashrates )
I use a i7-5930k at stock clocks. The dashboard shows me between 3000-5100 h/m and in the pool statistics ( Contributor Hashrates ) 32KH/s
Am I a small miner? From my understanding No. 3.1-5.1 kh/m right?
What does h/m mean? Hashes per minute?
What does KH/s mean? kilohashes per second?
What ist the calculation to get from h/m to KH/s?
What should be the difference between the exes?
I can see no difference between the
cpuminer-core-avx2.exe (for Haswell, Broadwell, Skylake),
cpuminer-corei7.exe (Nehalem) and
cpuminer-corei7-avx.exe (Sandybridge)
in hashing power.
Just the cpuminer-core-avx-i.exe (for Ivybridge) wont even start.
So which one should I use?
Thank you a lot for lighting me up.
If I am correct 7103 is for 1000 h/m or under and 7104 is for the bigger miners that still want to use VRM2. So if your getting 3000 h/m you'd want to use 7104
The guy's with the huge hash rates are running multiple workers or big 48 core servers as mentioned. (I would be solo mining if I had that kind of horsepower to mine with)
with the intel prefixes in the bat files, I noticed a bit of a difference on my old i7 3540, but it might not matter on newer cpu's
you got the acronyms right, I'm not sure of the math (lol too lazy to figure it out right now)
