I'm trying to modify the original client to utilize OpenCL, but currently having issues compiling it on Windows, maybe I'll do it on linux then.

I will toss some coins to the bounty but not for CUDA  Tongue

Hey, make your own thread! xD

If you want to contribute to a OpenCL miner, you would probably have the best luck making your own thread though. Smiley

Oh, forgot about this thread. I raised the bounty to 6BTC on another thread. I'll edit OP. Smiley

*speculation*

Which implementation do you think will end up being the best -- CUDA or OpenCL?  Smiley

400 XPM is currently 2.15 BTC

Man, you guys are really cheap.

This is going to be a tough nut to crack.

I thought it would be easy, however it seems that there is one big issue.

The developer will have to figure out how to perform big number arithmetic on a GPU.




Even if that weren't the case, it would be easier to mine 400 with the GPU processor than to collect the bounty.

If someone can do this right and it works, I will throw some coins in to the bounty.

Hello! This bounty is for a working, good-speed implementation (faster than a cpu of equivalent price by a few times, at least) of a primecoin miner for GPUs. Either CUDA or OpenCL is fine.
Requirements: Binaries for windows and linux, as well as source code released publicly.

If any mod (or admin!) would be open to holding the escrow account for this bounty, I'd be happy to send over my 400XPC and post that address in OP so others can donate.

Bump. Smiley

I made a new bounty, which is for 6 BTC! Only applies to CUDA miner though. Tongue
