gigabyte 750ti oc lp cards seem to be the way we will lean towards on a price per hash per watt situation ...

though the only issue ( i think was mentioned by bensam a little bit ago ) is the density of the cards on a single system ...

but for the that reason above - the gigabyte 750ti oc lp ( and they are really a small card - low profile ) means that we will continue with that card until a better one comes out - then determine whether a full upgrade is viable ...

the way the development that ccminer has been going on the sp fork - it seems the smaller cards will be around for a lot longer ...

now to get our internet links back and stable so we can get back to mining / work ...

A pair of 960's will get you near 10,500 KHS on x11.  Unless you are try to max a board with total hash, I would stick with 960's and 970's.  I am real happy with updates to my gaming rig here.  I got a water cool 980 with a 960 used for PhysX.  When I am not gaming, they are mining away.

First review of the 980ti..

http://cryptomining-blog.com/4861-crypto-mining-performance-of-the-new-nvidia-geforce-gtx-980-ti/

But they use sp-mod 45 wich is much slower than release 51 when mining quark,blake,groestl etc..

Release 51 mines quark@23230 KHS on the 980ti reference card..




Wow that's very nice.

Before i make any conclusions, i'm going to wait until the new R93** series come out, but this is "for now" a winner..
Definitely for those with electricity costs.

In my case, it's all about power.

But as always, 750EUR, i can buy 2x 290x for that price. (keeping in mind that i don't have any electricity costs..).
For 200EUR less, i would consider buying a few of those..


None the less, very nice Smiley

Are any power efficiency inprovements expected with the R93 series to compete with Maxwell?
Looks like a pair 0f 970s will give a lot more hash, a little higher TDP for nearly the same price
as the 980ti.

Sry for noob question...I'm new with nvidia cards

How do I get even start mine with ccminer 1.5.50? Where to put bat file and how to name it "ccminer or ccminer50"? I got 750 ti card. Anything else to do to run it. I want to run x11 algo

Sry again for this kind of stupid question

Here you go for the x11 algo: you can name you .exe whatever you want as long as you use the same name in your .bat. Most just use the name ccminer.exe. In the same directory as the ccminer.exe file, name the .bat whatever you want & create your .bat file to read;

ccminer -o stratum+tcp:// -u -p -g 2 -i 18.3 -a x11

(where the userworkername is there is an _ or . according to which pool you mine)

Save the .bat you just created, using whatever name you want. I save according to which coin or algo. Note: if you wish to go basic, leave out the -g 2 & -i 18.3. But make sure the -a x11 is there.


The switches (numbers) at the end are the algo (x11) you are mining and the setting that work best for the 750Ti that I mine with (not all cards are the same). Yours may need some fine tuning but read the file about what they do. Also, ccminer has been optimized (credit to sp_ & crew) to run the quark algo at almost twice the speed you'll get by mining the x11 algo, but you'll need to read this thread to find out the details. Now click the .bat you just created with the settings I just gave you (or what works for your card). The .cmd window should open and you are mining, x11 algo should be ~ 3.3mh.

Good Luck and Happy Mining!




You can run ccminer.exe directly from a command prompt. A bat file is useful for simplifying its launch by
specifying the path to the executable and the parameters of your favorite pool. You can call the bat file anything
you want.

If you see files like ccminer50.exe this just means it's a custom build to support a specific compute version.
The 750ti is compute 5.0. You don't have to worry about this unless you want to mine on an older card.
All ccminer-1.5.* support compute 5.0 and above.

The pool paramaters depend on the pool. Many use your BTC (or altcoin) address as a username and some also
allow a worker to be specified. Check with your pool for those details.

Thank you guys. Now it works fine Smiley

Stultorum infinitus est numerus
GTX 960 with X11 = Normal CCMiner = 3300 kh/s

SP-MOD= 4900-5000 kh/s, a serious jump.

Use windows 7 64 bit or windows 8.1 64 bit. Compile for x86

Version 51 has a lower memory usage and higher default intensity. Less memory usage and less power.
My quark intensity is set at 24 in startup batch
FYI I ran the same test on X11 at solo.nicehash I am getting 10575 per card for a total of 21150 k/h reported out of ccminer using release 50 setting intensity at 21
however when I run release 51 I am only seeing 10050 per card out of ccminer.
also nicehash is only reporting 13 to 15 M/h total no matter what release I use
they are both NVIDIA brand GTX980 Cards
it may be the card brand that is having the issue.. I have my GPU at +253 and I am seeing temperatures of 65ºC avg.
I can try other algos and see if the same holds true if you want

Use the 32 bit verson. build 51 has some pointer hacks that works best on 32 bit.
Also make sure that you have compute5.2 in the projectfile/makefile when building.

I will do this today when I get home from work and see if it changes anything... ( running on fresh install of 8.1 64)
will also try on a fresh install of windows 7 32 )

Truth be told I thought this was your build wrapped in a different package... but in either case...

It Works.. I see +250 h/s per card over release 50 using this version..

Strange. there are no changes on git after the 51. Does my exe producee the same results? Or the exe at cryptominingblog

Or are you building tvpruvot's version?
