1. Yes, windows, for me it is no problem to install linux but I don't want to ...
2. Claymore has a lot of features, important one is failover pools
3. And Claymore is faster, especially on Tahiti. I didn't run your miner on Linux but guess it makes cpu load. Claymore's doesn't.

p.s. claymore's miner is ~45-55 on well tuned hawaii or polaris and 40-50 on tahiti

Yup... Not sure who is pedaling it, but the majority of miner are on windows... by a long shot.

That and Claymore is a full featured, almost bug free, very stable, and long term support miner. Very close to what a professional company would put out. The mining community generally does not have software like this. Although miners would use a faster piece of software if available, but if there are choices, they're going to use something like that.


lol, you mean fuck each other or do I have to fuck myself before you're satisfied? Of course that's what you always set out to do, so that makes sense. XD

Profitability goes up and down, before Zcash release it was getting towards the bottom and would probably be pushed sub $1 before the net hashrate would stop growing on Ethereum due to large, long term investments.

SP just said he made 6-7 BTC on his last release which was about 100 hours of programming... That's $4200-4900 or $42-49 a hour... which is pretty good for a job you can do on your own and need no infrastructure or investments to produce besides your own time. If he continued to release it and add features, he probably would've made a lot more off his fee, instead he dropped it.

Claymore is in it for the long run and I'm sure he makes a fuckton of money through % based mining. Surprisingly dev fees haven't caught on around here, instead they go for quick cash and hope to make a wad real fast.

Underclocking and undervolting, that's the difference, otherwise I would still use your miner. It is really fast and stable.

If I knew I would be mining zec tomorrow I would make custom bioses for zecmining for every amd gpu I have and use your miner. But I don't. That's why I have to stick with Claymore now. Finding the power/ hash sweetspot for different algos is so much easier in windows (afterburner etc).

That 20/80 rule still works. 20% of miners owns 80% of the hashrate, and they are using mostly linux.

returned my palit 1070 to eth, 33mhs ))

well i'm still making almost the same amount, tnx to the block reward, that's why i said that diff does not count, if the hash increase was ported to nvidia too, the diff increase would be pointless to consider

in fact we are only making less because of the price and not the diff, i see that many coin start to lose value especially for the dumping and not so much for the diff that is increase

See. It does have effect. Now you need to increase the memclock and the core clock to the sweetspot. And you need to wait longer for the average results.

36 sols/s

How about we both just say Fuck You and move on.

Picked up 7x480's for fun. MB and parts arrive Monday. Even at $1.75/d after elec during low profitability times it looks like these cards break even quicker, but then I guess they get out paced by newer faster cards and there goes your actual profit. Which makes hobby mining itself seem like madness. You guys got determination. I'm looking for the real business angle here. I work next to countless engineering geniuses with free reign to solicit grants and hire programmers. That's why I gave DJ props. Presumably he made a decent return on his time invested, which is what interests me. I'm debating using my orgs' business incubator to put together a non-profit (no tax on mining, reinvest while gaining market share then go for profit), hire grad CS programmers to make and sell custom miners to the existing big farms (unless they can't consistently code the best versions), and use our EE's to crack asic's on previously gpu-only algos. Because mining alone with US tax, facilities, energy, maintenance, and other overhead costs looks unprofitable or highly risky as an investment over any appreciable time frame.

Ok thanks for the info. I thought you had ported the reference silentarmy miner.

Are people so excited about the Claymore Zcash miner because it supports Windows? My SILENTARMY Zcash miner is as fast as (if not a hair faster) than Claymore. And open source. And zero dev fee.

Maybe I should prioritize Windows support higher?

Well, no shit diff doesn't mean anything if hashrate also increases across the board but that's hardly the case so I fail to see your point.

For clarification, I respect every single nvidia dev I ever had the pleasure to come across and I certainly don't blame anyone (especially not djm) for their choice of distributing their work.

I was just simply pointing out that if maybe one or two devs would work together focusing on a fee based closed source miner, well then they could make a lot of money.

DAMN...! Still stuck with my 1070 at 32 sols...........

In case you missed it, Claymores Zcash is out. Looking at 50sols on a 470. Haven't found a 480.

i found using the ct 96 dropped me to about 27Sol/s (down from ~32)

Yeah nice argument dude. Didn't take long for you to break down. XD

That's absolute BS, there are a fuck ton of people in this thread who were angry about DJM not selling or crowdsourcing his miner. Not just here, the Zcash forums as well. There are always people sucking other peoples dick, in this case it's no exception... The amount of people who don't support his decision definitely outweigh those that do by a order of magnitude. Something about losing a lot of money.

Although confirmation bias is right up your alley.

-ct 64 is the default value.
-ot is for the opencl kernel.

You can reach 36.sol with proper memory settings. And -ct 96

-ot 2 is only for opencl mode, for me opencl mode does not work on silent army and win10 with NV 1070 so option has no effect for cuda

-ct 96  -cb 105 have no effect (are already defaults)
-ot 2 has no effect (does it even work right?)

The upgrade is with the silent army kernel on amd cards. Run with -ot 2 ( 2 threads)

But you can try to run with -cb 105 -ct 96 for a small boost i  the trump kernel (gtx 1070)

Have the same result ( 65 sol ) with nheqminer_v0.3a_suprnova with your nheqminer_v0.4b  

Its 2xgtx 1070 , clock 0 , mem -500



Where is the upgrade ?

.

Make sure you use 14.04.16 gave me issues with threads closing.
