Topic: Mining hashrates with a i7 8700k (Read 853 times)
1 thread for each 2MB of L3 cache, do not use more. Consumer SKUs are bad choices due to small L3 cache sizes, used Xeon chips are the most affordable option for CPU mining. You can get chips with 20MB+ cache for $25-30 used.
Hi guys,
i have a i7 8700k but have no information about the hashrates.
Would like to know Neoscrypt and Cryptonight hashrates of it.
I'm using XMRStack on Windows 10 and 4 threads on my desktop. Hashrate is about 300 h/s while mining Monero v 8.0 i have a i7 8700k but have no information about the hashrates.
Would like to know Neoscrypt and Cryptonight hashrates of it.
It looks like it is not the best of processors for mining but it is in the same league as a GTX 1060 3 Gb card when doing Cryptonight algorithm comparison. A single processor is not a great option to mine especially at this time but if you have no other option then you can always mine with a single one but the return is resulting in a loss if you don't pay cheap electricity.
The K version usually consumes more energy.

I got the fluctuating hash rates with the 8700 as well. On different PC's but with the same hardware. Sometimes 400, 350 or 280 - sometimes even as low as 150. Close and re-open and it can change. Tried with XMR Stak, 2.5 and 2.7. Also tried XMRIG. ll the same.
Auto configs or manually configs?
Use JCE Miner for CPU. Best monero miner for CPU.

Getting odd hashrates with the 8700K. I've got it OC'ed to 4.8 GHz, with 48x cache.
Randomly when I start mining with XMRig I get 280 Mh/s, 380 Mh/s or 490 Mh/s. Each time I close and reopen it or stop and start, it will give one of the above, but if it starts at 280, it never gets to 380 or 480. Same if it starts at one of the others. It appears to be completely random.

Yes i have the same story, the only thing is that last 2 days highest i can get is around 460 h\s and only 0.4$ a day
Huys what do you mine with your CPU maybe u can suggest how to get better o at least how to get to 500h/s every time i start to mine ?
my 8700K does 400kh/s on RVN algo (x16r). in case anyone wants to save themselves testing theirs 
uses like 110 watts, flucuates with that algo alot of course
1.1mh/s on lyra2z, prob most profitable mainstream algo for this CPU ive found, darn near same hashrate as a 1070 on that algo! :O
Do you mean x16r? Because a GTX 1070 have 34,5 Mh/s on lyra2z uses like 110 watts, flucuates with that algo alot of course

Is RVN algo profitable?
lol i think you mean LYRA2V2 (monacoin) a 1070 gets 34mh/s, on ZCOIN (lyra2z), a 1070 and 8700k do about the same, 1.1-1.3 mh/s
ZCOIN made the algo to try to be 1:1 in cost of hardware for CPU and GPU, a 500$ CPU hashes about the same as a 500$ GPU
RVN is x16r, and quite profitable, people ROI'd their whole farms of 1080ti's they regretted buying last few weeks on RVN,so nice.
2-3 times a year we get a coin that will ROI as many cards as one has in 3 weeks, RVN was the one so far in 2018

Today got my 8700k overclocked to 4.9ghz + and with memory locked got 540 h/s in cryptonight on nicehash 0.55$ day
Any one else got anything better ?
Wow that sounds really bad ... But the market is down right now.Any one else got anything better ?
How much power is it using?
I would be interested to see the Hash rate of my 6850k also if anyone has that information.
I have a 6800k I get about 400 on cryptonight, running on 8 threads.

Intel consumer CPUs are not great a mining CryptoNight due to their small amounts of L3 cache.
With full load on cryptonight you can get 500h/s.

Around 400 H/s. i have a i7 8700k but have no information about the hashrates.

Search 8700k on that page.
Around 400 H/s seems possible with cryptonight.
https://www.nicehash.com/profitability-calculator/intel-cpu-i7-7700k-470ghz?e=0.1¤cy=USD
Nicehash seems to choose Hodl as algo.
Could it be ROI Coin which is profitable?
According to Nicehash the 7700K get 360 H/s at cryptonight.
I Think you can get a bit more using a miner like xmrig.

Maybe you could run a test and let us know the results.
Thanks.
Really useful answer. Thanks a lot....not Thanks.
I would not ask, if i would know the answer dude.

Thanks.
Is there not a spreadsheet or something like that for CPUs?
