The difference is very small. Currently buying the paid miner a dubious idea.
Waiting for further improvements of the code of the miner from SP, to achieve a significant gap.

But my buyers last month have got a nice profit. The only difference is that Alexei used a couple of months to match my speed of the privateminer, and opensourced his work (11-april-2016). What Can I do?
I added a few MHASH'es to the donators..(12-april-2016) Smiley

sp - why are you not sending ANYTHING my way now? ...

I am sending to the crysx email adress adress.

tanx sp ...

ill let you know when i get it ...

ill be off to bed soon - as ive had a HUGE day today ... but if you are sending it now - i should get it soon after you send ...

im getting very upset with bct and their lack of care for the people in my situation and profile lockouts and forum bans ... i got hit with both - and STILL nothing from them ...

pathetic really ...

Now tested the latest miner from SP Decred#9 and Alexis78.
All GPU overclocked to 1600Mhz
Results Decred#9



And Alexis78 Miner results :

In ideal conditions so you have :
970 = +10Kh
960 = +13Kh
The difference is very small. Currently buying the paid miner a dubious idea.

Offtopic:  For the 980TI I actually get better throughput using -i 31 than -i 31.9 (as reported poolside).  The typical job time is about .8 seconds vs 1.1-1.2 for the higher intensity.  These numbers I can see when I have a run of jobs for which it did not find a solution (don't use -q).  I am a bit more likely to find a solution meeting the difficulty requirement of the job at the higher intensity but the slower processing time lowers throughput.  This made me scratch my head more than a little bit...why the higher solve rate at the higher intensity?  But I've watched the numbers stream past for hours.  Tried -i 31.5 and it yields same results as 31.9 for throughput.

The intensity control how many hashes you compute in the gpu before work is restarted..  
In version #9 only one solution is kept and sendt to the pool. In version #7 and #8 2 solutions are sendt if found.¨

I=25

2^25= 33554432

Up to 262 144 Hashes are computed on the gpu before work is restarted.

i=31

2^26= 2147483648

Up to 16 777 216 Hashes are computed on the gpu before the work is restarted.

On low difficulty the probability of finding 2 solutions is high (since we are checking up to 16 MHASH in one go), but ccminer #9 is only sending one solution to the pool.

On low difficulties and  high intensity version #9 will only send 50% of the solutions found. On high difficulty and high intensity version #9 will send up to 100% of the solutions found, but If the gpu is too fast, the miner might be faster than the pool, and work will be lost.

I use default intensity of 29 for compute 5.0 and 30 for compute 5.2 and up

#9??? ...

sp - why are you not sending ANYTHING my way now? ...

the emails have been fixed - and you can send to the email you have on your list ...

just because i have a newbie account doesnt mean crap - especially when bct have done NOTHING in helping me with getting the chrysophylax account back ...

if you dont trust newbie accounts - fine ... send the updates to the email address you have always sent it to - and i will get it ... im NOT a fake bullshit account that is here to play ...

what gives mate? ...

I'm surprised they released tesla first, I would expect them to beta test with the consumer line.
Maybe they are confident enough in the quality.

same ...

though nvidia do thngs in the most unorthodox ways ...

cant wait to see how cuda 8 performs with it ...

If I understood properly: they will hit the market NEXT YEAR??

last news were talking about this summer in july, for bulk access for the customers, but don't dream too much there will be at best a 2x boost, and i don't know at what price

Hey, does anyone have a Windows compiled version of CCminer optimized for 960 and 950 cards for Lyra2re2 algo.
The current version, I have is producing exactly the same has output as for those cards as my 750ti's?
10.1mhs 2x 750ti's
950 and 960 together are 10.1mhs

Wich ccminer are you using. My private (0.1BTC will give a boost of 15-20% on the gtx 950 and gtx 960 compared to the original DJM34 release)

Report your hashrates. I have only tested it on the gtx960M (768 cuda cores)

980 TI -i 31 1641mhz I'm getting about 3285 which is +42ish vs Mod#7. -i 31.9 bumps it to 3292.   edit: these are numbers reported by the miner.

Further testing....
980TI
Yiimp reports roughly the same hash rate (must run at least diff 2 which causes reported hash rate to vary depending on luck solving the job).
Suprnova poolside (diff 1) reports a MAX of around 2.65GH with an avg of roughly 2.45 at -i 31 (and I did let it run for over an hour and kept an eye on it the entire time) using Mod9 whereas Mod7 poolside shows 2.7-3.5 averaging around 3.1 (data taken today and from DAYS of monitoring).  Mod9 -i 31.9 was averaging about 2.3GH (see offtopic discussion at bottom of post for more info).


750TI
-i 24.5 1339mhz (primary display) Mod7 614MH, Mod9 620     (Mod7 -i 24.2 reports about 602 with MUCH less screen lag)
I am getting better poolside reports with Mod9 580-720 vs 470-630 Mod7.  I am also significantly more likely to solve a job with Mod9.  This is just an eyeball estimate but solve rate seems to have gone from 60-75% to around 85% on my 750TI.  It is uncommon on Mod9 to have a string of 3 or more jobs fail to find a solution whereas Mod7 often had runs of 5-7+.  The 980 TI also reports a higher solve rate on Mod9 but it's not as profound.



Conclusion: 
On my equipment, Mod9 appears to be a gain on compute 5.0 but something is broken on 5.2 cards, the poolside hash as reported on Suprnova is significantly lower.
Also, the --show-diff flag is broken in Mod9.  It always shows (diff 0.000) for every solution.  This flag was also broken in the 1.5% miner fee version from a few days ago.

Just tested the Alexei miner. He is not submitting all the found solutions to the pool. (only one nonce per warp) This meens lower hashrates on low difficulties. Managed to gain 10MHASH on the gtx960M. Release 9 (alexus sp-mod) will be sendt to the decred donators.

Sendt.

Report your hashrates. I have only tested it on the gtx960M (768 cuda cores)

@sp - please resend #9 to me - I did not receive it - thanks - pokeytex

now that tesla pascal is out - it will be in production for the corporates ...

so chance are - nvidia already has the commercial consumer line already produced and is waiting on the influx of cashflow from the corporate range before they release the consumer line ...

this MAY mean that they are only a few months down the track - if that long at all ...

the consumer line will most definitely be the most expensive cards on the market when that happens ... so for me - it will be a good 6months before i buy any pascal in bulk for thefarm - though a single card for testing maybe on the books ...

its like saying that feul efficiency IS the factor in high octane drag races ... its not - its the time it takes to get from one point to another - and the fastest wins ... period ... they dont care how much feul or noise or rubber is used or destroyed in the process ...


that's because they have a wide margin.
everybody must take expenses into account.
if you made more money by lowering your TDP, wouldn't you do it?
do the math and you'll see.

agreed ...

expense IS a factor IF the result takes it into account ... if all you want is more hashrate at the expense of power - then great ...

i will concede though that in a larger farm environment - this view would be the deciding factor for the farm and its design and setup - as the smallest decrease in power would save a huge amount ...

but in this case pallas - i honestly dont think the power reduction is that great that it would be anything to worry about - especially if thehasrate is increased by a larger margin ... not a very small one ...

as for money - im not fussed on that end ... it comes good in the end when it comes to money ... im more concerned with the coins themselves ... more hash - more coin ...

hence the reason why i have always said - that my view of 'profitability' is VERY different form what most people accept it to be ...

WE ARE NOT IN A HIGH OCTANE DRAG RACE--

There has to be a standard for measurement, even in a drag race.  The amount of sassy banter that goes on in this thread is extra-ordinary, and it is all about who has the best code.  Even drag races have rules, it is not always just the fastest time.  Some races are about the closest time to a point, etc.  There has to be a standard way of comparison.

I like my beer, I am not an idiot, and I want to keep my beer free of the yellow-tinted spray wash that is wizzed around so frequently in this happy thread.  Don't pollute my sudz, please.       --scryptr

hahaha ...

and as usual - you manage to put a smile on my face scryptr ...

you are completely wrong - it IS a drag race here fro the highest hashrate - but nonetheless a very funny read ...

i dont drink alcohol - nor smoke - nor do drugs ... i do drink a LOT of water though ( about 5 litres a day ) - so go figure with the yellow spray ... Wink ...

if there was a standard of measure that could be verified by a reliable source that had standards to abide by - then i would totally agree ... but this is a drag race that has no rules - so the end result is who hash the 'bigger' hashrate and stable miner - no matter how much power is involved ...

power is expensive here in australia - and so i need a LOT of coin to cater for it if i were to trade in all the coin i own ... luckily for me i have other businesses to make sure there is other income flows ... or maybe not luckily - just smart enough to make sure it doesnt kill everything i do ... im old enough and ugly enough to know the difference ...

either way - hashrate is king in here ... whether we like to conserve power or not ...

i guarantee you - that if a miner comes out that is twice the hashrate we are getting now - but uses three or four or five times time the current power usage - miners worldwide would jump on it like a sexy hollywood actress turned hooker giving away her services for free ...
