Does this miner support 750Ti?  If yes, what's the correct config to run it?
Sorry if this question was asked earlier Wink

Only on linux, and the speed is slow. Around 4mhash. You bether mine something else.
Unfortunately I'm running Windows Sad

so its a month early, but do you think ethminer will be able to support the new GTX 1080 and 1070? They are CRAZY powerful and efficient. I'm excited

Don't expect miracles from the 10x0 wrt ETH mining. The memory bandwidth is about on par with the 980Ti, so unless they have made fundamental changes to the memory controller, resulting in better random access bandwidth, it will be just about as fast. But because of its compute power, a dual-algo miner with ETH (like Claymore's for AMD) seems the best use of its resources.
well i currently have a GTX 980, so I guess it would be an update for me. I primarily game though, and mine overnight, so its a win win. I hope maybe these new cards with the new drivers make Windows 10 mining issues a thing of the past? or do you foresee me still having to boot into windows 7 or linux

GTX 1080 is GDDR 5x, has a noticeable increase in memory bandwidth. 1070 is GDDR5 at similar bandwidth to the 980ti from what I've seen.

 I'd guess 40% faster just from the increase in clock rate for either.

 Probably 30-50% lower power consumption, at a guess.

 I'd guess don't bother with the GTX 1080, for whatever reason the Nvidia cards scale up even worse than AMD cards (the Nano in theory should kick serious hashrate on Ethereum, but in fact it's barely if any better then the R9 380).


 It's not a question of Etherminer supporting them, the question is "when will NVidia drivers get updated to support them" (answer - should be by the time the cards are released).



 I'm planning to build a multi-970 machine in June, not for Ethereum-specific but I'll probably try mining on it to see how well they do. I just wish I could find a SANE motherboard with 16x slots at positions 1/4/7 instead of the stupid common 2/5/7 spacing MOST 3-slot motherboards have - but as cool as these cards are supposed to run I might go 4x with one of the 1/3/5/7 MBs around (Biostar "Racer", MSI and ASUS and I think Gigabyte have same config on slots on at least one MB each and I'm not real fond of Biostar or the fancy wastage on fancy LED lights with the Racer boards).

 I DID finally find a few viable cases for such a build, and a couple of them are even somewhat affordable - but I'm sure I'll want to install some REAL fans, not the junk low-flow "quiet" wastage most case makers put in their boxes.



 Anyone else notice that the GTX 1080 reference designs are only using a SINGLE 8-pin PCI-E power connector?
 I think I saw 180 watts TDP mentioned somewhere too, but not sure if that was the 1080 or the 1070....



with those specs, they would hash ethereum with 30mega and 80watt consumption, a beast basically, and this would be for 1070 not even 1080, assuming your 50%-50%

Even for the same hash rate, would it consume about half the power/energy? It is 14 nm process, so more efficient.

I get a error when running the precompiled versions for some reason.  Google isn't helping me come up with an answer why I am getting this:

jsonrpc::JsonRpcException
std::exception:: what: Exception -32603 : INTERNAL ERROR: : {'id":999,"jsonrpc": "2.0", "result": false,"error": "Invalid JSON request"}

Maybe someone can help me decipher this error?  

I went back and reread the instructions on compiling and made it a few steps further(attention to detail counts).  However I am now at the step in studio where you set Ethminer as the startup project, and then do Build Run.  I however don't see a build run option.  I do see a Build option, and that seems to run without errors.  However when I look for a subdirectory for ethminer I am not finding one... So I am not sure if it is built correctly, or I am just not locating that directory where it is  putting the build.


UPDATE:  found that the port info for QTminer is different for ethminer on ethermine.org.  I changed the port # and now the binary works.  Sorry to bother you guys!  I had an ID10T problem.

Can anyone point me to a "for dummies" version of how to install this on Windows?  I downloaded the github, the VS, and cmake... But getting an error about crypto++.  I downloaded that, but it still acts like it cannot find the cryptopp.  Is there a step by step for doing this?  Thanks!


why not download the precompiled

Hey I am running a GTX 970

setx GPU_MAX_ALLOC_PERCENT 100
setx GPU_USE_SYNC_OBJECTS 1
setx GPU_USE_MAX_HEAP_SIZE 100
ethminer -G -F http:/exp.suprnova.cc:3000/username.worker/17 --cl-global-work 133500

I am pulling 20.5Mh/s = 17.1Mh/ .833s  can I get more out of it?

Also can I mine with my CPU at the same time with a different miner? I have an Intel I-5 6600K (Skylake) that isn't being used.

Nice that you joined the eth rush, Phil.
I am almost exclusively posting under the same nick (Biodom) on the Ethereum forum, so not to mix messages.
A couple of days ago decided to limit myself in eth and only have 3 rigs (12 cards), running 7950, msi R9 390 and Asus Strix R7 370, total about 220 mh, maybe will add 60 more (3 more GPUs).
I saw you saying that you ordered R7 370 from Amazon.
Newegg had a great deal on Strix, which is a smaller card that is easily overclocked to 16-17 mh.
I run six of then off H97 anniversary mobo with USB powered risers and all six of them plus CPU consume just below 800W (at default), 850-860W overclocked.
I like these more than 280x, which are noisier.
R9 are nice, but super "fat" and expensive
let me know your nick on ethereum forum if you are going to post there.

give me a link to the forum I will most likely join it.



thanks Philip, Amph for pointers -- yes, agreed - smaller chunks is better so that i am able to use the 1300 = eventually - simple management, card longevity/resale without OC, and cost effective may well be the ultimate goal here.

Just as example:

asrock H97 anniversary mobo with 5+1 pcie slots (need 5 risers) $70 newegg
Crucial 240gb ssd $55 at Microcenter after $10 instant rebate if you buy processor, i believe, but maybe if you buy mobo, then $65
Intel G3258 (enough for mining) $50
Asus Strix R7 370 4gb $165 ea, minus $15 rebate/ea of first two=$30 rebate, total cost of cards $960
Strix needs just one PCIe connector
risers from china (they cost less than half of Amazon price) or pay premium if you want fast:
http://www.aliexpress.com/item/PCIe-risers-card-PCI-e-X1-TO-X16-Adapter-with-80cm-USB3-0-or-4Pin-Power/1710122334.html
or
http://www.aliexpress.com/item/1-PCS-Pci-e-Express-1x-to-16x-Extender-Riser-Card-USB-3-0-Extender-Cable/1653140088.html
or get a lot of 10:
http://www.aliexpress.com/item/10-PCS-Pci-e-Pci-e-Express-1x-to-16x-Riser-Card-USB-3-0-Extender/1662171815.html
so, ~$45 for 6 risers
EVGA 1300-cost nothing for me since I had one, but $163-180 otherwise.
Total cost with PSU $1360, without $1180 for either 14 (default) or 16-17 (safely overclocked) mh/s/card=84-96 (or up to 102) mh/s for the rig.
84-96 mh/s is currently $410-468/mo or 42-48 eth/mo (as of right now)
Cost of electricity at $0.1/kwh=$58 for default or $62 for overclocked rig/mo.

as you can see, with rising difficulty and somewhat dropping price, it is not as clear cut as 1 mo ago, but hardware will be worth at least 50% in a few months and if you are nimble, you can do OK even when it is not a hobby.

I recently was able to cobble together a working genoil ethminer on 14.04 Linux which seemed to work fine on ethermine.org, but I didn't feel like I was getting the hash rates on the pool that I should have.  So I just hopped on miningpoolhub.com and fired up the genoil miner and I am getting what is says in an "unknown error".  I also see some invalid shares that are showing up on the pool.  However the pool appears to be reflecting a number that is closer to what the miner is stating is happening.  Anyone know what this unknown error might be?  I am running the latest 1.07 Genoil on Ubuntu 14.04 with a 6 gpu rig.  Thanks for any feedback or suggestions to sort out this unknown error issue.

Well building the webgui is not the problem, I need the miner to report data (an API) so that I can display it in the page. I was wondering if there was a possibility to do that with this miner. But I haven't find anything in the doc so probably not Smiley

Is there a way to monitor the miner without using Teamviewer or other graphic programs? Like it was possible with the API in cgminer or sgminer to send info to an adress IP and then set up a little webpage.

i think you need to programm a good webgui page with php to do what you want, then you can access to your miner via this web gui, but without proper skill it's better to use standard remote control
