I have had a rig running 0.5 for nearly a year with no problems 5x MSI Gaming X 1070 on Windows 10. One of the cards died and I did an RMA. They sent me a Gaming Z 1070. When I put that card back in I now get this error for every card.
09:50:20 CUDA: Device: 0 GeForce GTX 1070, 8192 MB i:64

09:50:22 CUDA: Device: 3 Thread exited with message: "an illegal memory access was encountered"
09:50:22 CUDA: Device: 0 Thread exited with message: "an illegal memory access was encountered"
And a popup for windows 10 says this.
"Application has been blocked from accessing graphics hardware."
I then upgraded to 0.6, nothing changed. I googled some and figured since the RMA card I got back was different I then should just set every GPU back to stock using MSI afterburner. That didn't fix it either. MSI afterburner says driver version 388.13. I then used windows to update the drivers to 399.24 and that didn't fix it either. Next I used DDU to remove all drivers and start from scratch and that didn't fix it. Ugg.
I have ran out of options. Any ideas? Thanks,

Hello everyone!
None of my PNY or EVGA 1070 cards can go over 41.6 sols/s. Would someone kindly give me the best MSI afterburner settings to achieve 45 as suggested by the OP?
my settings:
power 72
Temp 72
Core 144
Memory Clock 594
Getting 41.6 sol/s avg from 6 cards
THANK YOU!

THANK YOU!
Each GPU is individual. So there is no universal best settings for all cards.
I use the following steps when install and setup GPU:
1. Choose desired power consumption
2. Choose maximum stable OC settings by step by step increasing of overclocking (memory or core depends on the algo)

Wehn Beam support arrives? 150,5?
Sorry it my mistake here. In bat file i don`t have this mistake. But if i change this options. it`s no help nothing same problem in miner. (received incorrect work) I suppose dev of miner can answer here, support this algo or no anymore? (maybe have plans to added again)

Seems EXCC use another hashing algo that doesn't support by EWBF-miner. You should ask EXCC developers about it. Even at EXCC pools there is no configuration for EWBF miner. They use another mining software

To know what algo are supported, make a miner -help command. http://prntscr.com/m204w8

Any new EWBF release in near future ?
Quite new to EWBF to mine Zcash (used other miners before). I have a single 1080 in my rig and wanting to switch to EWBF.
I am a bit confused with the algos, and which to use. With 192_7 I get around 26 Sol/s, 144_5 around 55 Sol/s and 210_9 ets me 240 Sol/s.
So to me on paper I should be using 210_9 is the best option for me to use, am I correct in thinking that? As it's massively higher than any of the others. Or does each algo mine a different coin 192_7 would be Zcash maybe? 210_9 would be Aion? Not too sure how to work out which algo is for which coin.
You have not the choice about the algo to use : this is the coin you choose.I am a bit confused with the algos, and which to use. With 192_7 I get around 26 Sol/s, 144_5 around 55 Sol/s and 210_9 ets me 240 Sol/s.

For example, you can't mine ZCash with 144_5 (and even if you think you can, you will have no one share and earn nothing).
The best coin to mine with EquiHash is BitcoinZ (and it is with algo 144_5).
Imho, best coin to mine right now is BTG...looking at current prices I doubt bitcoinZ will get anywhere.

No miner for MacOS with External GPU connected?
I test other miners on macOS EGPU setting: it is stabler and better in hash-rate than on other OS. Please develop the miner on macOS with EGPU.
The hashrte is very similar between Windows version and Ubuntu one (if you have a clean Windows installation, of course) : just a litlte better with Ubuntu (and less power consumption).I test other miners on macOS EGPU setting: it is stabler and better in hash-rate than on other OS. Please develop the miner on macOS with EGPU.
I will be very surprised if a MacOS version will be better than the Ubuntu version... even more with an extrnal GPU.
EWBF Cuda Equihash Miner v0.6
Greetings!
It is based on my last Zcash miner and almost completely repeats it.
Now closer to the topic:
* Parameter "solver" is disabled.
* Solver for equihash 200,9 has been deleted.
* Solvers for Equihash 192,7, 144,5, 96,5 and 210,9 has been added
* Added timestamps in the output to the screen and to the log file.
* Argument --algo is added, allow you to select Equihash variant allowed values 144_5, 192_7, 96_5, 210_9, zhash, aion. This parameter is mandatory.
* Argument --pers is added, allow you to set personalization string (8 charachters) for equihash algorithm. This parameter is optional. Equihash by default uses the string "ZcashPoW", many other coins also use this string, but not all, some coins use their own string, and these are all differences, so for some coins, you need to set the --pers option to the required string, for example, Zero coin: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/annzerzero-your-transactions-are-your-business-3310714 uses the string "ZERO_PoW" and for mining this coin you need to pass arguments --algo 192_7 --pers ZERO_PoW ....
Fee is presented and by default 2%, argument --fee is presented too.
v0.6
* Fixed situation where the api socket did not close during the exit..
* Increased time-outs during stratum authorization and subscription.
* 144_5, 192_7, 96_5 now faster.
* 144_5 now uses less vram, ~1.63GB (This should be useful for 2GB cards).
v0.5
* 96_5 fixed the problem with cropped performance on fast (1080ti, Titan) gpu.
* 144_5 Speed up by 3-15% depends on the hardware.
* 210_9 Speed up by 2%.
* 210_9 Fixed "low difficulty shares" problem, on Aion pools.
* 210_9 can now be used via --algo 210_9, I recommend using --algo aion for Aion mining, this will help you avoid problems with the wrong personalization string.
* Added option --intensity, this option will not increase performance, only slightly reduce the gpu usage, if you set it to 1. Works like --cuda_devices argument,
for example: --intensity 64 64 1 64 64 will apply the intensity 1 to the device with id 2.
Special features (These features are added for specific projects,do not use these parameters on conventional pools):
* Added option --pers auto, Allow the pool to manage the personalization string. (Profit switching). (http://zergpool.com)
* Added option --algo 144_5_EXCC_D For ExchangeCoin.
Known issues (mostly will be fixed)
* Equihash 96_5 Can be slower in cuda 8 versions.
* Performance counters may display an incorrect speed during reconnection.
Expected performance:
96_5 uses ~1.6GB vram
1050ti ~7.8 KS/s
1060 ~14 KS/s
1070 ~20 KS/s
1080 ~25 KS/s
1080ti ~37 KS/s
192_7 uses ~2.5GB vram
1050ti ~8 S/s
1060 ~15 S/s
1070 ~22 S/s
1080 ~24 S/s
1080ti ~35 S/s
144_5 uses ~1.63GB vram
1050ti ~18 S/s
1060 ~30 S/s
1070 ~45 S/s
1080 ~50 S/s
1080ti ~75 S/s
210_9(aion) uses 1.2G vram
1050ti ~75 S/s
1060 ~130 S/s
1070 ~190 S/s
1080 ~210 S/s
1080ti ~320 S/s
Please note, that this is initial release, and it can be baggy or incompatible with many coins or pools.
Miner compiled with cuda 9.1 and cuda 8.0 for x64 linux and windows. Support devices with compute capability 5.0 and higher.
