Ethereum is still going strong. New pools make it possible for smaller miners now too. Still no interest in adding it to CCminer?
NON-STRATUM ALGO--
I am thinking that the difficulty lies in the communication protocol.  SP_ modded the hashing protocol, and it is in the latest Ethminer build.       --scryptr

I support the shark (quark)

http://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/sharkcoin/

Quark opensource on the AMD (280x 2048 shaders): 2MHASH
Quark opensource on the NVIDIA  (980ti 3078 shaders): 30MHASH (sp-mod 60++)

NVIDIA support the demoscene

EDIT: ccminer-lyra, the djm34 fork, should work with older cards but, afaik, only compute 3.5 and up.
Ya works with quark but no luck getting to run lyra2rev2 on the 760.
I'm working quark on the 660 as well with it.
Heck one 660 or 760 out does 2x R270's time and half with the latest sgminer for those.
I have 4xR270. and a few 5850 and 6870 setting doing nothing. Pair of GTX480 collecting dust on the shelf.

@ --scryptr I've already looked around and already have the most updated ones I could find. downloaded, thanks.
In my fork Lyra2REv2 works with compute 3.0 cards, but it's not speed optimized:

If you want to try it:

True, but Ethereum is here to stay and its volume can support a huge amount of miners and everybody know what Ethereum is by now and it's safe to say that it will get forked many times so while I can't code to save my life so I'm not sure about the difficulties, it might still worth implementing it long term. Most people with 750 Ti's on windows have a bug heavily gimping the hashrate for some reason (8.7 -> 1-2 mhs).

Lasted longer then Axiom by a long shot. The Volume is definitely sticking around. I hope compatibility trickles into ccminer.

AMD is quite a bit ahead of Nvidia on Ethereum. If I had my rig from a year ago I would have a higher hashrate with worse hardware.

I got a bunch of Nvidia carde delivered today.
First time mining with Nvidia.

I get the "msvcr120.dll is missing" error.

I am about to download the Visual Studio 2013 pack to resolve this.
Is it really 6+Gb ?

Try http://www.microsoft.com/en-US/download/details.aspx?id=40784 instead.
This was the first version i installed, i still have the "msvcr120.dll is missing"
I saw that someone else solved it by downloading the Visual Studio 2013 pack.

But it is 6+Gb Smiley
Downloading as we speak but it is really slow.

Do you have MSVCP120.dll / MSVCR120.dll in C:\Windows\system32? If you do, please delete them, and re-run the 6 MB setup file again. Also, which setup did you install? 32 bit or 64 bit? Can you try installing both?
I uninstalled and installed the 32bit version. Now the miner is starting up. Thanks for the tip !

Check out the link above.  Get it from the MicroSoft site.  6+ MB.  Smiley

it wouldn't be too difficult to get it to work with compute 3.0 and lower, just need to get rid of shuffle instruction and ldg ones...

The compute capability of the 760 is only 3.0 according to https://developer.nvidia.com/cuda-gpus
I don't think any mining software still support that low :S

And there really is not reason not to, there not really that old and can still do some good days work.
Even the 660Ti could still work well if we had some support.

CUDAMINING--

First, there is a repository of CudaMiner and of the original CCminer builds and variants at "www.cudamining.co.uk".  Also, check Epsylon3's github.  He attempts to maintain compatiblity with older nVidia chipset architecture.

I think Bombadil's CCminer v1.02 supports Cuda 2.0 and up.  You will find it at the CudaMining website, linked above.  The author of the CudaMining website is going to let the domain expire, so you better check it out soon.

The old builds won't have all the latest algos, but as SP_ and tpruvot (Epsylon3) have done, you or another coder could fork and improve upon the old code base.       --scryptr

Does it work if you try that change in makefile.am

From :
Quote
nvcc_ARCH = -gencode=arch=compute_52,code=\"sm_52,compute_52\"
#nvcc_ARCH += -gencode=arch=compute_50,code=\"sm_50,compute_50\"
#nvcc_ARCH += -gencode=arch=compute_35,code=\"sm_35,compute_35\"
#nvcc_ARCH += -gencode=arch=compute_30,code=\"sm_30,compute_30\"

to :

#nvcc_ARCH += -gencode=arch=compute_52,code=\"sm_52,compute_52\"
#nvcc_ARCH += -gencode=arch=compute_50,code=\"sm_50,compute_50\"
#nvcc_ARCH += -gencode=arch=compute_35,code=\"sm_35,compute_35\"
nvcc_ARCH = -gencode=arch=compute_30,code=\"sm_30,compute_30\"

I don't think it'll work.
There is specific code for compute 5.0 and up in this fork (assembly, launch configs, etc.).
You can try it, some algo may even work, but most won't.

EDIT: that's the mod I found a few page ago to make my 750ti (Compute 5.0) to work again with the new releases
