Topic: CCminer(SP-MOD) Modded NVIDIA Maxwell / Pascal kernels. - page 139. (Read 2347599 times)

Based on their twitter announcement and all the testing on the testnet pool yes.

Will bitcoin gold mining start tomorrow on the 12-nov-2017 ??

Yeah, the page is gone again. The new Nicehash totally does not give you all the information you need to see nor does it allow you to easily compare algos, pricing, marketprices, and earnings all at the same time.

750 Ti's are still 60w cards, not 38W - as I have always said it in this thread more times than I can remember.

If nvidia-smi reports 12 watts out of 38, that's actually 19-20 watts (out if 60) because the figures are percentage based depending on the built in maximum (60w). Also, at 77% power limit (which is the lowest for some flavors of cards) it will use up to 47 watts. So ~236 H/s at 15 watts is actually using 24 watts. Not much of a difference alone but with scaling it does add up and hash per watts are not that amazing (understandibly so for 28nm fab process).

Check at the wall to confirm.

I agree. Old nicehash startpage was way better and informative.
Pitty it's not working again.
 

THANKS FOR THE LINK! --

I found it informative.  The twitter feed addresses general concerns over the CryptoNight hashrate reports.        --scryptr

BTW the Nicehash old miraculously back.

Yuh... and what's the other half of 'dual' mining besides Eth? Never said just Eth, that's not what gets optimized anymore.

I think we won't get much improvement with eth or dual for Vega. ETH pure speed is memory not compute bounded. If you clock HBM to 1150 and higher you'll get 46+mhs. I saw even 47+mhs but it was not stable. nVidia Tesla with HBM2 4096bit bus can do 60+mhs but Vega has only 2048bus.
Some tuning should be done to increase Equihash speed of Vega but seems nobody cares ))
 

Yup,

XMR is paying $3.9 per day for Cryptonote(which is a huge network BTW), Nicehash is currently paying $5.5.

Vega56 is $400, same price as a 1070 which earns half as much. Cryptonote is the first really well optimized algo for Vega as well. There are gains to be made with other algos including dual mining.

Your owner, she will punish you ))

The market, not the landing page which had all the important information on it. The landing page just has a big 'try the new nicehash' banner on it now, where you used to be able to view it.

hey bensam, im pretty sure you can still access the old nicehash page.  I think there is a button "view the old marketplace" somewhere

New Nicehash marketplace sucks. They spread all the information all over the place so you can't easily look at earnings for buying/selling. Not sure if this is an attempt to obfuscate the marketplace as they know it underpays or just a biproduct of 'modern' webdesign which often times isn't remotely utilitarian and just tries to make everything look good by hiding it.

I've been looking around for a bit and I can't actually find average payout and stats the old site has. Pretty sure they're trying to hide them. You can look at the order book, but that doesn't help you as a miner. This is absolutely silly. "You can sell your hash here, but we wont actually help you figure out how much you can make by doing it except for some extremely vague estimates!" Not remotely shady.

Only way you can figure it out is using their profitability calculator, which still doesn't give you the raw stats, like price per GH.

Super shady.

The speed increase is around 7-10% on the same power on gtx 1060 and 1070 compared to klaust branch. So if you manage to run klaust @720 my mod #3 should be able to do 800 on the same clocks.

As in the miner from cn_ to get access to api. Not suitable for standard ccminer: -b 0.0.0.0:4068. Thank you.

Using newest ccminer that has equihash, compiled optimized, cuda 9.0, I'm getting ...

Solo gtx-1070 I run at +1600, above that it crashes

All cards about +150 over clock

When I mention 1600 I'm talking transfer

Gtx-1070 in mining rig usually +1200, but I run the -pl ( power watts ) at below 120, I like 110

Gtx-1060-6gb likes +1000 on memory-transfer
Gtx-1060-3gb seems to not like over +500 on memory transfer

[ 1070's in rigs I find prefer not over +1000; When running EWBF I find it crashes to often if I run at +1600; I don't find any crash problems in the new ccminer, solid as a rock and I love having the software so I can fuck around with the .CU files and optimize my code ]

On all cases I get

500 sols/sec on 1070

300 sols/sec on 1060's ( -3 or -6 gb almost the same, maybe -6 5% better, but most likely because I run -3 at 85 watts and -6 at 95 watts )

3 sols/watt 1060
4 sols/watt 1070

I keep my rigs (cards) below 80c , my 1070s run now at about 60c, and my 1060's run at 68c auto-fan, but I also have rig fans in front ( std 120mm fans blowing in ), and I have large 80cm cross fans running through racks to move hot air

More important is COST

My cost for 1060-3 is $200 USD, 1060-6 is $300, and cost of 1070 is $600, thus the best bang for BUCK is the 1060-3 same efficiency as the -6, but -30% the price, the 1070 in comparsion sucks

The 1080 costs $1k USD where I live. I usually buy my 1060's from GALAX, which is straight from china. Good discount on 1060-3 nobody wants them, thanks to ethereum

For equihash we only need 650mb of memory so the 1060-3 is just fine, no problem like found on ETHEREUM which is NO longer profitable to mine.

IMHO best be now for equi is rigs of $200 cards that be six, so cost is $1200, cpu biostar is $50, and rig is $30, cpu/mem is about $50; six 1060-3 does about 1800 sols/sec, right now generates about $15/day in zencash.

My power bill is $60 per rig, per month so 4days a month the rig pays the power, then all else is mine,

I don't mind buying GPUS as I have been doing MACHINE-LEARNING & CUDA forever, thus I can always redeploy my stuff to research anytime I wish.

***

Talking about the 'watt' issue above, well six cards at 80watts that's 480 watts and power-supply mother board is 120 watts so I target 600 watts per rig and keep them cool. Much less than $60/month electricity cost.

***

more important here I not see addressed is how are you controlling card? I'm on linux, I hate windows

linux-cuda requires control from nvidia-settings & nvidia-smi

most problems I is people are running windows & just use the MSI gui and set all to max,

My rigs make NO noise, I can't even hear the fans

I think its best to BUY all the cards on the market dial them all in with the different mining algos and know what to deploy for what problem at hand,

I would have never bought 1060-3's if I hadn't taken this approach, but now that I actually know its limitations and power, I find its the best for equihash for cost/performance

When you talk about +650 over clock on 1070, I don't think it really matter's 1060-6 or 1070's once you go over +500 the  gain is negligible, its best to dial back the power to minimal, and learn how high you can clock before the miner software crashes

Like I have said I find +1600 to be the magic number that crashes all NIVIDIA software, for many app's I can run +1550 just fine all day,

But if I run EWBF I will get hourly crashes, if I want crash free I have to go down to +1000

With the new ccminer, I have not studied it limits, but I can tell you this at +650 your running its at less than 1/2 its potential ( my gut feeling so far is that I can run ccminer at +1400 just fine )

All the above said if your running at 150 watts, and +1600 over-clock you will fry you card,  I think big mistake I see in these forums is people on windows told to set fans to MAX, and Power, ... and all over-clock ally you are doing is burning up your graphics cards.

Lots gtx 1070 cards with samsung memory cant stable pass more than 750 mhz, and even some cant be stable on 650+.
So that results are just for advertise your product...
What speed you can manage on for example 650mhz on which most cards work?

NEW USER ACCOUNT POSTS STRANGELY SIMILAR--

In the last six months I have noticed that there are a number of new user accounts posting strangely similar notes, asking repetitively about noobie information, and in general paying no attention to the context of the thread.  Sticking to the main topic, perhaps, but showing no interest in personal research.

Cryptomining has increased, there are many new miners, but some must be bot/bought accounts.       --scryptr

fuck yes so much god damn spam.  I hope they hit all those ICO raising fucks hard.  I know one guy near me raised over 1M$ and got put down proper by the financial authorities.  feelsgoodman.  I dont care if you sell bananas or coins, an investment product is an investment product.
