New NeoScrypt CUDAminer v1.0.0 has been released. The links are in the OP.

It supports all NVIDIA GPUs with compute capability 5.0 and higher, i.e of the Maxwell and Pascal architectures. Should work on Volta, too, with manual settings. I've changed the name back to CUDAminer because both Christians who have managed the CCminer project back in 2014 are no longer in business, so the old name is rather confusing.

Both Stratum and GetWork should work fine. No GetBlockTemplate.

There is a single CUDA kernel written in PTX asm for the most part. CUDA 6.5 seems to do the best, CUDA 7.5 is slightly slower, CUDA 8.0 is considerably slower. Although there are 3 hashing modes which fit different GPUs:

--mode 1 is for the Maxwell architecture. Derived from NSGminer. Does very well on 750 Ti like 270KH/s @ 1400MHz core / 3200MHz memory;

--mode 2 is for the Pascal architecture with GDDR5, i.e. 1060 and 1070. Over 1.1MH/s on a reference 1070 with no overclocking;

--mode 3 is for the Pascal architecture with GDDR5X, i.e. 1080. From TPruvot's miner. Needs more work though. 1080 is almost as fast as 1070 with it.

The miner is open source, no dev fees or anything, though your donations are welcome.


Tested with all cuda versions on 1060 3GB with power limit to 80W, core clock 1596MHz, and memory clock 4480MHz i use this settings for 1,5 years without any problem

cuda 6.5 was the faster
cuda 7.5  3% slower
cuda 8.0 20% slower
cuda 9.0 20% slower

edit : From my own tests till now only ccminer of KlausT is working well with cuda 9 and give the same speed like cuda 7.5

Hello. I have problem, nsgminer is not work for many pools. For example when mine VIVO. Use the same setting, but change pool name and port only.

My settings: nsgminer --neoscrypt --gpu-platform 1 -o stratum+tcp:// -u -p c=VIVO -I 16 -g 1

When i use s.antminepool.com:4233 miner works good.
If i use eu1.altminer.net:4233 then miner not loading. Miner    always show empty CMD window.
What could be the problem?
You use wrong port for altminer . should be 10001

Please, forgive me for such a stupid questions! Can someone help me Huh

Maybe Ghostlander, do you have a few minutes to help me? If you give me your wallet address I can send you something as a sign of gratitude

Well, thank you everybody!

900KH/s for a GTX 1070 isn't bad. More in a few days.

It is bad. I get 1300 with my Zotac 1070. I have GPU clock +130MHz @2075 and Mem clock +620MHz @4417 with 68C temp.
I run: ccminer -a neoscrypt -i 16 -o stratum+tcp://pool.unimining.net:4236 -u xxx -p c=GBX

nsgminer doesn't work with altminer.net and few other yaamp/yiimp pools for month already. And seems like nobody cares.

It is necessary to make the miner even more true by adding a level, in other words, to connect human body sensors to each mining rig, and only when a human body is connected, the mining rig can start to make a mining.

Hello,

I am new in mining, I use a 6 x RX580 rig but getting speeds from only 25kh/s

What am I doing wrong or what can I change?

Please a detailed explenation, I am a newby with mining and computers!

Thanks

Hello! I don´t want to bother you with my stupid questions maybe someone can help me.

I am really new in the mining world, just 8 days. It was difficult for me to build my rig and install everything.

I started yesterday Reading this post and today I finished.

I am mining Gobyte with CCminer in Windows 10 with MSI GTX 1070 8gb Gaming X

- NSGminer is better than CCminer for GBX mining?

- In whattomine says that 3 GTX 1070 8GB should give 3.000 kh/s but in my CMD window running CCminer says:
GPU #0: MSI GTX 1070, 913.29 kH/s
accepted: 374/378 (diff 0.091), 2757.85 kH/s yes!
GPU #1: MSI GTX 1070, 926.56 kH/s
accepted: 373/377 (diff 0.014), 2758.00 kH/s yes!
GPU #2: 1829 MHz 5194.95 H/W 178W 61C FAN 75%
accepted: 376/380 (diff 0.060), 2758.14 kH/s yes!
So, 2758 kh/s is bad, how can I improve this?

- In Uniming Pool says that the 24 hour payout is 0.26 gbx and if i see in Whattomine should be 0.35gbx, so I am loosing 30% of possible profits every day. I am right?

- In MSI afterburner, I have:
Power limit 80%
Temp limit 74°C
Core clock 0
Memory clock +500
Fan speed 75%

- Is really necessary to install the latest Bios in the motherboard?

- This is my bat file: ccminer-x64 -a neoscrypt -o stratum+tcp://pool.unimining.net:4236 -u "[--wallet--]"

I've an R9 270x and fiddling with the g w & I parameters I can sqeeze out just under 300 kh/s (neoscrypt), which is not that great compared to the 480 h/s I get for Cryptonote.

This is the config I used when testing VIVO mining.

Code:
setx GPU_FORCE_64BIT_PTR 1
setx GPU_MAX_HEAP_SIZE 100
setx GPU_USE_SYNC_OBJECTS 1
setx GPU_SINGLE_ALLOC_PERCENT 100
setx GPU_MAX_ALLOC_PERCENT 100

nsgminer --neoscrypt -o stratum+tcp://eu.bulwarkpool.com:10000 -u
-p c=VIVO -g 1 -w 896 -I 18

Thanks man.  I'm not sure what it was, but mine just jumped up to 250-300k range too.  What change do you think most contributed to that?  I imagine my intensity was off, but frankly I see no difference between my video response while using the computer before or after.  (This is just a test computer, not a mining rig, so the graphics card is doing double duty for the mining and regular computer usage right now.)

I'm too am testing this out on my regular use PC, only has the R9 270x in it. I think the main improvement was the Intensity (-I); getting the WorkSize (-w) at the optimum value, I think, also help increase the hashrate, more is not always better for WorkSize.

Work size can be either 64 or 128. Everything else doesn't make sense or simply unsupported. Although you can put any large value in, the miner is going to reduce it to 128 automatically instead of freaking out. Nearly the same for intensity.

On the optimized CC miner I get
Nvidia 1070ti: 1350 hasrate
nvidia 1060 6gb OC version: 750

nvidia 1070ti
core: +150
memory: +600

1060 6gb oc:
core: +160
memory: 750

Running on windows 10. Previously i was running ethos but it gave me worse performance than windows for neoscrypt.

Out of interest how many watts are your 1070 ti using under windows?  I get around 1100 with my 1070 ti's with a set power limit of 135w under linux.

I'm just trying NSGminer on my desktop PC to see if I can get it to work.  The card is AMD R9 270, NSGminer 0.9.4, to GoByte pool.

I'm getting about 20 kh/s which seems really low, based on a few benchmark sites I looked up.  Is this right or is something wrong?

I will eventually be mining on NVIDIA 1070s, but just doing proof of concept right now.....

edit: also I notice when hitting G during execution, my GPU temp is only 53, which seems very low.  So maybe the intensity is too low, but still this wouldn't seem to account for such a low rate, unless I'm misunderstanding something.

I've an R9 270x and fiddling with the g w & I parameters I can sqeeze out just under 300 kh/s (neoscrypt), which is not that great compared to the 480 h/s I get for Cryptonote.
