@Claymore, great to see you getting involved with ZCash!  It's relieving to have a miner on the horizon that doesn't require constant babysitting of rigs and/or bat files that restart the software every 10 minutes.  I've actually just gone back to mining ETH until a better miner comes out, gladly will pay a % to the dev, good news!!!!!!

That is what I am doing now. It is too frustrating to do the GPU mining with the ZCash at the moment.

you must be doing something wrong, i havent had to babysit my rigs for a few days now. working stable with no real issues.

Yeah me neither, I get a few crashes here and there but it's very rare now. Also my rigs consume a lot less power with ZEC which is a real plus for me (0.23cts/kWh), I've ditched ETH for now, I'm mining around 0.04 ZECs a day atm.

Good news: I'm going to release my ZEC miner in a few hours so all ZEC-related discussion will move to new thread finally Smiley
Bad news: I was not reach 100h/s on 390 in this version. I'm going to improve speed, but people want to have miner asap so I will release it as is, about 50h/s on stock 390X. I don't like to hurry so further improvements will be added later.

few hours..

There really is nothing to do wrong.

The miner is unstable, I use a powershell script to keep it working.

give it time genoil-zec will be one of the best, some one said next release increase speeds fixes more speed drops and one other thing and it won't be out as fast it looks like.

i think he got paid to NOT release it. it would be out already

Very much doubt that. He said a few days. We're still in that "few days" period.


Creating custom software takes time, and even devs require sleep.

True story there.  Also, they should be rewarded for their efforts - bring on the miner Claymore!!!  If your hashrate is 1/2 of what you are shooting for, you'll probably have the majority of miners running your software.

Looks like he dont want to release.....

Of course he wants to release, he'll be getting paid a fee from each miner the moment he releases it. (Which is fine, of course) He's losing a lot of money right now due to people having ditched ETH and his software to mine ZEC. Once he releases his ZEC client, he'll get most of those miners back and paying fees to him to use his software.
