Topic: Grin Mining (Cuckoo Cycle) (Read 3268 times)

f2pool is very good as well.

do you know about any grin29 miner that can work 6gb cards in windows 10 apart of  nbmiber? Do you know about any better amd grin29 miner then grin pro?

I have several GPUs but atm I don't yet to try to mine GRIN. does is a profitable (please don't suggest me to jump mining calculator web). I just want to hear by the real miners

Go to grip-pool.org , register there and you can send easily to kukoin.

Anyone figured out how to mine to a KuCoin wallet with bminer?

My Mining results on Grin

Windows 10
Bminer 14.1
Evga 2080 xc ultra

Here are my max stable overclocks, anything higher than these tends to be unstable or crashes, best to treat these like 1080 ti 1080 gtx
when overclocking instead of the 1070 or 1070 ti.

70 TDP, +125 core clock, + 175 memory clock  Results = 7.38 G/s Fidelity 1.03   145-155W

Overall I am impressed with the 2080 rtx when mining grin

Luxor's GRIN Mining Pool

At Luxor we’ve been following MimbleWimble and Grin in particular for a few months now. We’re very excited to join the Grin community as we share some of its core values: Decentralization & True Privacy.

We want to see this project thrive, that’s why we decided to support this project by creating a high-quality mining pool. We’re releasing our first iteration of User Accounts along with the Grin Mining Pool!

On top of that we set aside a few hours of our team to do some research about Grin and put along a few interesting articles to help the community:

    Grin: The First MimbleWimble Implementation

    How to start mining GRIN

    How to install and run a Grin Node + Wallet

    Luxor x BitMesh Withdrawal Guide

We decided to donate to the Core-Devs to continue funding development! We’re thrilled to become Grin’s Friends.

We also developed a mining calculator for C29, C31, and C32: http://grin.luxor.tech/statistics

Looking forward to seeing everyone at our Discord Channel and keep talking about Grin & MimbleWimble.

Anyone here actually managed to get Grin mining with the even older AMD gpus like the Radeon 7970/280X or the R9 290?

I am going to guess that they aren't supported by the software or have horrible speeds since even the RX 470 perform horribly bad against the Nvidia counterparts.

For folks who are new to mining Grin, we have some step by step guides

all the good devs that invest in AMD miners are in CN algo - not many miners out there for ethhash or similar algos...that the problem now...doc, jce, teamred had many experience with AMD cards, but not with the algo
i hope one of them know the potential incoming fee if they can tweak AMD GPU for grin (maybe also BEAM) if they can reach same level that vega hits with (for example) lolminer´s eth performance (without the pill the vega outperform 1080 ti)

Very, let's hope that the devs can tweak the software enough to make mining Grin with AMD cards profitable.

dang. thats quite a difference.

Yes, but meh

Well... I get about 4.2 per 1070 at about 110w (ave) and at 80% power limit.
My OC settings are:
80% PL
50 CC
700 Mem

So with my 8 GTX 1070 I average about 33.5 to 34 which brings about 1 Grin a day.

For my 4 RX 570 8gb (XFX with bios mod switch without any bios edits) I only average about 1.65 each with an average of 130W as well. I'm still fishing for optimal OC settings though but it seems that 1.65 - 1.7 is normal.
That only brings in 6.5 which is only 0.1918325 Grin a day.
So yeah... AMD cards currently suck at Grin. Even if I had 8 RX 570 (like my GTX 1070 rig) I figure that I'd be using over 1,000W for only 0.4 Grin a day. I'd actually be losing money at the current price per Grin on my AMD setup.
HOWEVER...
I'm being optimistic. (Not so much that I'm rushing out to fill up on RX 570 cards.)
For my 1070 rig (of 8 Founders Edition cards) I was only getting about 2 Grin a day with gminer a few weeks ago.
Then I switched to bminer and it jumped up by about 25% instantly. Now I'm getting over 4 by simply updating the miner software. I got a little excited by this which is why I bought these 4 570's for about $175 each because I was expecting the same results as soon as bminer started working for AMD. Unfortunately, this hasn't been the case... yet. But the devs are working hard to give us the most that we can earn from them. I can't complain really because in two weeks I've earned 20.3 Grin (at $8.28) and 83.3 Beam (at $2.16) so in conclusion this was a quick and easy $348 during a bear market. So I'm keeping both of them running hoping that things turn around soon and that mining software improves. Especially for AMD cards.

My Rx480 8GB 1310/2000 - ~2g/s @ 100-110W
But you do not need to look for a dependence on the core/memory frequency and even more so to compare with ETH mining. Because the main indicator for Cuckoo Cycle algo is memory bandwidth (https://github.com/mimblewimble/grin/blob/master/doc/pow/pow.md). And the memory frequency is secondary (according to my observations).
For example, RX480 and 1070 have the same bandwidth 256 and the memory frequency 2000MHz (6Gbps), but the 1070 is more than twice is more hashrate (~4.6 g/s).

Seems one GTX1070 at 130W power consumption gives practically the same hashrate as three RX570. Is it still so profitable to mine GRIN with AMD GPUs ?

What are your OC settings?
I'm at 1150/1950

Grin coin is not really so profitable as it seems. That's why developpers don't release any miner for it. If there will be good profit than a lot of new miners will appear.

I,m getting about 1.7 @ 90w per card.

Mining a few rigs seems okay.
