With power limit about 75-80 there is not speedup for gtx 1070-1060 at all.

More speed - more power. Minor speed improvements achieved by reducing memory dependencies, so yes it allow your gpu works a bit faster, but hard power limit not allow to do that.
I think the correct way in mining is find ballance between speed and power, so by my observation i get 3% more power usage and 3% more speed at the 1070.

why I can't run this miner on linux?? it always says : .bash:  ./miner.exe access denied
This is version for windows.

It's strange because I download it from zcash.flypool.org and it is linked to this topic I download it for linux x64(first page where is download) and now it works.

PS sorry for my bad english this is not my primary language
PS2 I tested your miner on windows 7 and it work very well 2 Smiley very nice job

If you have dl the correct linux ver. from page 1. All you have to do is: make it "executable" and setup your "startup command line" (server info, worker, cuda devices, solver and so on..)

ewbf,can you add failover function to your miner?

At this moment you can use something like this:

:loop

miner --eexit 2 .....
timeout 5
miner --eexit 2 .....
timeout 5
miner --eexit 2 .....
timeout 5

goto loop

Miner will use first command line, then if connection will be lost he will attempt to reconnect  3 times and then exit in case of fail, wait 5 seconds and run second command line. etc

Hi people.
I want to ask you for help.
I uploaded the release candidate of the new version https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B9EPp8NdigFiZWdSdGtlSXZ0bzA
This version must bring to us speed improvements up to 4%.
Unfortunately not for all gpus, so i ask you make speed comparison of this version and version 0.3.0b with maxwell gpus gtx 950 960 970 980 etc, solver 0, power limit 100 and post you result.
Thank you!

I have 3-4% increase for 1070
Thank you!!!

why does my 970 card get 270 sols/s and my gtx titan z only get 180 sols/s?

Have you tried another solver for your Titan card?

--solver 0 / 1 / 2 / 3

Disable your 970 and try different solvers for your titan and re enable your 970 when you find out which one works best.

--help

To switch out/in cuda dev.

--cuda_devices 0 if your titan is first, or 1 if it's 2nd..

Hope that helps Smiley

Tried it with my regular (0.3.0b) OC settings on a 1080 and a 1070, and I did see a 3% imp for a while.. until it stoped working with that OC. They usually stay right under 1000 Sol/s for those two cards, I saw numbers (before stop) 1025-1030-1037-1020-1032 and so on

Ver. 0.3.0b:

- With those two cards I get ~895~ Sol/s non OC tdp 100, and add about +100 Sol/s max stable OC no tdp limit.

1070 = 405 non OC / 465 stable OC
1080 = 485 non OC / 530 stable OC

Ver. 0.3.1rc:

- Non OC = 920-930 Sol/s 100 tdp limit, gave it a mild OC +100 Core +250 mem, no tdp limit = ~960~ Sol/s

1070 =425 non OC / 460 (mild OC)
1080 =490 non OC / 505 (mild OC)

Solver 0 on all tests, short runs 5min, OC on last ver. must be fine tuned again.

Not a maxwell test, but at least som numbers Smiley

Is there also a linux version of this rc? I could test it with my 970s.

No, linux version not compiled yet.
