This is miner indeed is the best miner for Zcash. Never had an issue with it. I reccomend people to first run it with stock speeds before overclocking for stability.

I would like to start mining zcash, but I come from nicehash miner so I need a bit of help.
Can you please help me posting here the most useful post you have read in this (or others) thread? (I know you bookmarked them Wink )
I just need to understand main settings and how to configure a miner.

If you are also so kind to share your OC and undervolt settings for the 1070, it will be really appreciated!

Someone mining bitcoinZ with ewbf ??

I am not able to configure the stratum host of the pool on the command line



Yes, no problem mining it. you have to configure it the same way you use it fir Hush or komodo or Zcash.
Which pool are you using?

I am also checking the most profitable equihash coins in the calculator here - https://www.crypto-coinz.net/

What is needed in the nicehash.bat in order to mine from the US?

Currently my nicehash.bat has all stock settings (except for my wallet address of course,) and location is set to eu.

Code:
miner --server equihash.eu.nicehash.com --user .2x1070 --pass x --port 3357

Maybe some can post their US based .bat?

may be this..

miner --server equihash.us.nicehash.com --user .2x1070 --pass x --port 3357
or
miner.exe --server equihash.us.nicehash.com --user wallet address --pass x --port 3357

I have already tried that. The miner closes immediately. I suspect there's more to it than just changing "eu" to "us" like the port.

Go run the batch file from the command line so you can see the error.

zcash4win question.. are any of you using it?  (many issues here)

Someone said to mine directly to a pool.

no issue here

Thanks  .. quick question,. are you mining to a pool?.. or to the mining address for ZCash4Win?.. I'm on Windows 10  Thanks man.

Is this any good?



ASUS Strix , Micron Memory, both on
GPU+119
memory -134
Power 80%
Fan Auto

I have GPU +99
Mem +299
TDP 65%
Fan 65%

695 sols @ 165 W ~4sol/W

If you have cheap electricity then you can go

GPU+199
Mem +599/699
TDP 80-85%



And what is the hashrate if you go:
GPU+199
Mem +599/699
TDP 80-85%
?


740-745 but that consumes like 240W, 3sol/W, if I had free electricity, i would do that

My miner crashes way before I get to those numbers. I dont think I could get more than +160 core clock and +600 memory. How did you manage to do this?

is it a good idea to underclock the memory for ZCASH, I see it's reducing the voltage a bit and not causing any hash rate drop, but I also suspect it might be causing stability problems with some 1080 ti's ...

Another question.. (not mine)  what are all these additions?.. Are they for the 'config' file?  Looks like this person added it to his .bat file. 
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b0n7RgO9s98


setx GPU_FORCE_64IT_PTR 1
setx GPU_MAX_HEAP_SIZE 100
setx GPU_USE_SYNC_OBJECTS 1
setx GPU_MAX_ALLOC_PERCENT 100
setx GPU_SINGLE_ALLOC_PERCENT 100
miner  --server eu1-zcash.flypool.org --port 333 --user 48utjduvljnaluiornhjdgalkbhvjlaiubg.009 --pass x

thx!

Current version 0.3.4b. is stable and working fine for me.
I'm reading this thread regulary and didn't notice that somebody was having any issues with v.0.3.4b.
Anyway you should try it yourself first to make your own decision.

Can't say the same :/ For me, it worked for 3 days and then stoped with same error message. After that it hasent work more than 2h. Miner stops, Windows is unresponsive.
This is my bat file:

Code:
miner --server zec-eu1.nanopool.org --user t1dBhFpJPgRCbHWJUzkD66RcjL3aMjrY7sX.Digibum/m*****[email protected] --pass z --port 6666 --log 1

Did you update drivers recently? It may be caused by the new drivers or your computer might have automatically installed a new version of windows 10 that resulted in instability.
For my is working perfect with the 0.3.4 using nanono pool, try this in your batch file
SETX GPU_FORCE_64BIT_PTR 0
SETX GPU_MAX_HEAP_SIZE 100
SETX GPU_USE_SYNC_OBJECTS 1
SETX GPU_MAX_ALLOC_PERCENT 100
SETX GPU_SINGLE_ALLOC_PERCENT 100
miner --server zec-eu1.nanopool.org --user username.worker --pass z --port 6666 --solver 0
You don't need to set environment variables for this miner.
yeah you are right, so just use this line miner --server zec-eu1.nanopool.org --user username.worker --pass z --port 6666 --solver 0, the key point(at least for my case) was the parameter solver to 0 in order to get the best performance

ASUS Strix , Micron Memory, both on
GPU+119
memory -134
Power 80%

Have you tried to put memory at +500mhz? .

My 1080TI HOF :

Core clock : +110
Memory clock : +650
Power: 80%
Fan : 100% ALWAYS.
Result : 790-800 Sols

How did you manage to do this? I cant do more than 720 with 80% power and when I put power to 110% I can get 770sols max with my asus strix 1080ti. Does your hashrate get bigger if you put power limit above 100%?

The Hall of Fame 1080Ti is wayyy more powerful than any other 1080Ti. Don't worry about your performance, it's fine.

Someone mining bitcoinZ with ewbf ??

I am not able to configure the stratum host of the pool on the command line



you dont want to enter "stratum+tcp://server:port" when entering the server..

instead do this:

miner --server btcz.suprnova.cc --user blabla --port 5586

Hi guys,

Sorry for my bad english.

Well, im start mine in September, 19, in Flypool theZcash.

I bougth an GALAX GTX 1060 3GB EX OC WHITE

Then i have tested many configs and i see something

Power limit = +1% give me more 1 Sol/s
Core Clock = +10Mhz give me more 1 Sol/s - (In ETH, Core Clock do nothing, only work on Zcash)
Memory Clock = +x or -x = nothing change, do nothing.. +380 ou -300 = nothing!! In Etherium, i see this change MHs, but in ZEC do nothing.

So, after test for almost 1 month, i get this stable configs ans still running a long time without erros

Anyone have this same GPU?

And now, i w8 arrive my new card ASUS GTX 1070 DUAL, and i will put on side by side with my GTX 1060 to mine ZEC


What about my config?
