Hi!
I'm just getting started and would apppreciate some help.
I'm using a Geforce 1080TI.
So the best would be to mine with CUDA, right?
How can I change my .bat file to mine with CUDA?
My .bat looks like this at the moment:
ethminer -G -S coinotron.com:3344 -O username.workername:workerpassword
Thanks in advance,
Foong
If you type "ethminer -h" in the command line it will spit out a complete list of commands you can use. This should have what you are looking for.
Posted it here, for the record.

Usage ethminer [OPTIONS]
Options:
Work farming mode:
-F,--farm Put into mining farm mode with the work server at URL (default: http://127.0.0.
1:8545)
-FF,-FO, --farm-failover, --stratum-failover Failover getwork/stratum URL (default: disabl
ed)
--farm-retries Number of retries until switch to failover (default: 3)
-S, --stratum Put into stratum mode with the stratum server at host:port
-FS, --failover-stratum Failover stratum server at host:port
-O, --userpass Stratum login credentials
-FO, --failover-userpass Failover stratum login credentials (opti
onal, will use normal credentials when omitted)
--share-timeout reconnect if no response to submitted share received within n ms (non-functi
onal - for testing)
-SP, --stratum-protocol Choose which stratum protocol to use:
0: official stratum spec: ethpool, ethermine, coinotron, mph, nanopool (default)
1: eth-proxy compatible: dwarfpool, f2pool, nanopool
2: EthereumStratum/1.0.0: nicehash
-SE, --stratum-email Email address used in eth-proxy (optional)
--farm-recheck Leave n ms between checks for changed work (default: 500). When using stratu
m, use a high value (i.e. 2000) to get more stable hashrate output
Benchmarking mode:
-M [],--benchmark [] Benchmark for mining and exit; Optionally specify block number to ben
chmark against specific DAG.
--benchmark-warmup Set the duration of warmup for the benchmark tests (default: 3).
--benchmark-trial Set the duration for each trial for the benchmark tests (default: 3
).
--benchmark-trials Set the duration of warmup for the benchmark tests (default: 5).
Simulation mode:
-Z [],--simulation [] Mining test mode. Used to validate kernel optimizations. Optionally
specify block number.
Mining configuration:
-G,--opencl When mining use the GPU via OpenCL.
-U,--cuda When mining use the GPU via CUDA.
-X,--cuda-opencl Use OpenCL + CUDA in a system with mixed AMD/Nvidia cards. May require setting
--opencl-platform 1
--opencl-platform When mining using -G/--opencl use OpenCL platform n (default: 0).
--opencl-device When mining using -G/--opencl use OpenCL device n (default: 0).
--opencl-devices <0 1 ..n> Select which OpenCL devices to mine on. Default is to use all
-t, --mining-threads Limit number of GPU miners to n (default: use everything available on s
elected platform)
--allow-opencl-cpu Allows CPU to be considered as an OpenCL device if the OpenCL platform suppor
ts it.
--list-devices List the detected OpenCL/CUDA devices and exit. Should be combined with -G or -U
flag
-L, --dag-load-mode DAG generation mode.
parallel - load DAG on all GPUs at the same time (default)
sequential - load DAG on GPUs one after another. Use this when the miner crashes during DAG
generation
single - generate DAG on device n, then copy to other devices
--cl-extragpu-mem Set the memory (in MB) you believe your GPU requires for stuff other than mini
ng. default: 0
--cl-local-work Set the OpenCL local work size. Default is 64
--cl-global-work Set the OpenCL global work size as a multiple of the local work size. Default i
s 4096 * 64
--cuda-extragpu-mem Set the memory (in MB) you believe your GPU requires for stuff other than mi
ning. Windows rendering e.t.c..
--cuda-block-size Set the CUDA block work size. Default is 128
--cuda-grid-size Set the CUDA grid size. Default is 8192
--cuda-streams Set the number of CUDA streams. Default is 2
--cuda-schedule Set the schedule mode for CUDA threads waiting for CUDA devices to finish
work. Default is 'sync'. Possible values are:
auto - Uses a heuristic based on the number of active CUDA contexts in the process C and th
e number of logical processors in the system P. If C > P, then yield else spin.
spin - Instruct CUDA to actively spin when waiting for results from the device.
yield - Instruct CUDA to yield its thread when waiting for results from the device.
sync - Instruct CUDA to block the CPU thread on a synchronization primitive when waiting fo
r the results from the device.
--cuda-devices <0 1 ..n> Select which CUDA GPUs to mine on. Default is to use all
General Options:
-v,--verbosity <0 - 9> Set the log verbosity from 0 to 9 (default: 8).
-V,--version Show the version and exit.
-h,--help Show this help message and exit.
