is this still being actively developed? i've been searching for a reliable OSS Nvidia CUDA Windows miner but have some (noob) questions.
June 19, 2017, 12:13:38 AM
Is it possible to mine with an NVIDIA GeForce GTX 745 with this? I keep getting an error message. I am able to CPU mine easily.
When I start the nheqminer miner as advised in the instructions for NVIDIA GPU mining I get the following output the error message is at the bottom:

and how can i set backup servers in this miner?

hello.please help me,if you know:
where can i download script for avtorestart nheqminer 0.5c if failed?because i have error after a while on antpool with this miner.i search script on bitcointalk,zcash forum(also have used google) but found only awesomeminer (from actual programs) and outdated scripts (like for bitcoin gpu miners).awesome doesn't support nheqminer.also have find this - https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/windows-mining-monitoring-tool-v2-beta-open-beta-1448855 ,but want to use more stable soft.
thank you very much.

I noticed that your compiled version of 0.5a keeps GPU usage constant at 100% vs. 0.5c by Nicehash. I get moderately better Sol/s running two instances of your version of 0.5a vs. Nicehash current release of 0.5c.
Strange, ocminer didn't change anything in the code. January 16, 2017, 03:23:43 PM
Release is here:
https://github.com/ocminer/nheqminer-djezo/releases
Let me know if it works for you, I've included a .bat and I've compiled for Win x64 with CUDA8

Hey ocminer - what are the odds of recompiling 0.5a to support more than 4 GPUs? I noticed that your compiled version of 0.5a keeps GPU usage constant at 100% vs. 0.5c by Nicehash. I get moderately better Sol/s running two instances of your version of 0.5a vs. Nicehash current release of 0.5c.

Now i am wondering minning or not to minning zec with gtx 1080.
Generally, I would say yes, go for it, ZEC mining profitability is still good.
But if you want to be sure, there is nothing easier than to do a test measurement.
Let the ZAC miner run for 24h and then compare your results with some other possibility.
I think it's worth it with your card.

im getting the same speed as with EWBF's Zcash cuda miner Version 0.1.0b
nVidia gtx 980 / Windows 10 x64 / nvidia driver 376.33 / no overclocking : around 270 sol/s

so when the cpu/gpu bug will be fixed, i'm not getting what i should get with this, there is indeed a loss which is higher than the private miner with 2% fee

Hello!
We are proudly presenting you - open source and free to use CUDA ZEC miner. No limitations (works on any pool) and no dev fee.
We used our first ZEC miner for this purpose - nheqminer - it was forked many times on GitHub and it will be easy for most developers to adopt new solver into their forks.
Link: https://github.com/nicehash/nheqminer
Bins and linux compatibility will be available very shortly.
In future, we plan to bring same open approach to AMD card owners with the fastest OpenCL solver.
If you appreciate our work and would like to donate, just mine on NiceHash. We request nothing more from you
Note to all devs that are eager to include parts of code into their miner: cuda_djezo project is released under GPL 3.0 license, which means that you cannot use this code as a base or parts of the code to create closed source fee based miner. If you do that, you violate license terms.

Hello Team, I have been using this miner on Win 10 for a few days and its good. I would like to see how it performs on Linux over Windows but unfortunately I am no linux guru. I can usually figure my way around linux from posts but I have rebuilt ubuntu 3 times trying to get things to work, I cant ever seem to find a good cmake install articles or boost. Any chance anyone has a dumbed down guide to ubuntu with nVidia and getting this up and running or anyway anyone would be willing to do a step by step from ubuntu fresh install? My current setup is a msi z97 gaming 5 with 4 gtx 1060 3 gb and getting around 1115 SOL/s

got an MSI Gaming X 1070 in the mail today...
still playing with it trying to find the sweetspot, but for now - 445-450 using this miner.
thank you so much
Hi can you tell me your powerlimit value?still playing with it trying to find the sweetspot, but for now - 445-450 using this miner.
thank you so much
powerlimit is at 80.
i tried 75, and it worked fine (no crashes or anything), but dropped my hash by like 10sol. monitoring it in afterburner, i can see that with my settings (+150 clock/ +600 mem) the tdp fluctuates right around 75-77 percent, so 75 was choking the card a little. i left it at 80 to give it a little cushion, and the past 24 hours everything has been running great.

5x 1070 per rig on G1840 cpu win 10 x64
you need two thread per card only. three is not good
only 2x instances of the miner is there is one thread set in the miner btw...
me settings are ~1950-1960mhz on GPU and +750 on memory (+650 on micron)
per card I get ~442sol/s

Well you need to learn not to look at the screen numbers only, hash count is far from right for nheqminer it goes up and down, but the pool side its 100% same as ewbf + the 2% fee you get more
tested for more then 24h, btw
tested for more then 24h, btw
Really ? i tested for half a day, even used the API to make measurement every 30sec both pool & miner side and make average, i still get about 5% less. Will try again to be sure then, doesn't hurt
Just for info what's your optimal configuration ? i tested with 2 and 3 instance of the miner with 2 or 3 card per instance and 2 thread per card. what pool do you use ? (i use suprnova) ? how many gpu's (6x 1070 rig here)

I know dozen ppl that have 1070 GTX and none then you have so low speed, for me ewbf and nheqminer 0.5 is same speed, if CPU veryfication is fixed speed would be 1-1.5% more and it would be faster on same TDP
TDP 78% Gainward phoenix and 1950/2375mhz is ~440sol/s , it can be pushed more if I wanted
even if CD 0 0 1 1 does not work you can run 2x exe/bat file and get the 100% GPU usage, and its know fact for months that some cuda kernel have that issue to not use GPU 100%, same was with ewbf

Still not as good as EWBF because of the GPU/CPU loop not optimised, (gpu load going up & down) making average hasharate lower than EWBF (even counting the fee) but i'll probably get fixed soon by someone now that the code is open, can't wait
