Topic: [PROFITABLE CPU MINING] Mine from home / work! Tutorial - page 5. (Read 102209 times)

 Got a 3770k + 8gb ram, using ivy miner 64bit,
   threads = 7
mining-params = mmc:av=1&aesni=on&m=4096
mine = getwork://[email protected]:80:8880:8881:8882:8883/mmc
mine = getwork://[email protected]:8080:8081:8082:8083/mmc
#proxy = socks4a://127.0.0.1:9150
compact-stats = 1
print-timestamps = 0


 Copied the mmc.cfg to win64-ivy-bridge folder
 created a bat file with contents of mmc.cfg
 When I try to run it just flashes by.

 I'm running the miner with the wallet now and setting priority and affinity from task manager, I also have 2 gpu miners going and when running the wallet miner it lowers wu's.
 If I could get the other one going might get better performance, right now SPM 7.24 HPM 6.587

Can someone please post a good step by step guide for cloud mining in a pool like http://mmc.gpools.com ?

(an example of a good guide: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/maxcoin-cpu-cloud-mining-guide-max-vps-has-been-launched62730-gmt-450539)

Thank you!

I have been looking everywhere for which CPU coin is the MOST PROFITABLE to mine finally,
 I figure i would just test 5-6 myself and post the results.

Let me know if you have something that is Generating you more USD per day i will be happy to update my list!

You can also go into the processes tab on task manager and rightclick to set the priority and
numbers of cores for yam.exe

Ok, I just happened to get a used XEON delivered yesterday with Nehalem.
I did get the program to run with no aesni:

threads = 1
mining-params = mmc:av=0&aesni=off&m=1024
mine = getwork://[email protected]:80:8880:8881:8882:8883/mmc
mine = getwork://[email protected]:8080:8081:8082:8083/mmc
mine = getwork://yvg1900.mmc_1:[email protected]:8080/mmc
#proxy = socks4a://127.0.0.1:9150
compact-stats = 0
print-timestamps = 1

-----------------
But why am I generating no shares?

perfect thanks.

out of curiosity, what might I do to optimize my config?

i5 4670 16GB ram

current config file:

threads = 0
mining-params = mmc:av=0&aesni=on&m=1024

run it from a batchfile that is in the same directory with the yam.exe and the cfg file

Cant figure out what I'm doing wrong.

I have an i5 4670k with 16GB ram.

running yam -c yam-mmc.cfg from the prompt gives me the error 'yam' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file.

any ideas what I'm doing wrong?

thanks

The answers to your question are in post 61  ^

Sorry, can't think of anything here.
What OS is that?
32/64 bits?
How much ram do you have?
What CPU do you have?

Also, make sure it is a multiple of 1024 . . . 2048 or 3072 or 4096 etc.

What does it say under "view problem details"?

Yes.

Did you try m=1024?  That parameter is per-thread, believe me, I have used it. Whoops, it's total mem.

Sorry,
Can't think of any reason that would happen.

Try contacting the developer (yvg1900) by pasting your question as a reply to his forum post (the one I'm linking to in my post).

According to the above the mem# is total for all threads. I did try 2 and same thing...

There are no errorcodes. Crashes immediately. I even tried to > log.txt and it was empty.

The problem with your config is that you gave more than 1024 memory per thread...
1 thread is maximum 1024.
So either change the threads to 2 or the memory to 1024 and it should work.
If it still doesn't, check carefully what the error is (it has very nice and explanatory printouts).
You don't need to register with the pool.

I'm crashing with no errorcode right from the getgo on the XEON E5-2620 which is Sandy Bridge supposedly.
I have 8 GB of RAM avail. OS is Server 2008 R2.

threads = 1
mining-params = mmc:av=1&aesni=on&m=2048
mine = getwork://[email protected]:80:8880:8881:8882:8883/mmc
mine = getwork://[email protected]:8080:8081:8082:8083/mmc
mine = getwork://yvg1900.mmc_1:[email protected]:8080/mmc
#proxy = socks4a://127.0.0.1:9150
compact-stats = 0
print-timestamps = 1

I tried diff num of threads, mem, and aesni=off

??  lol

I don't have to register with the pool, correct?

Sorry, just noticed there's no 32 bit miner.
I haven't tried it on a 32bit system. It might work (slower of course).
Please download the 64bit and let us know if it works.

Thanks
