Re: [ANN] dstm's ZCash / Equihash Nvidia Miner v0.5.8 (Linux / Windows)
as any one compare that to ewbf?
have no crashes on ewb. but on this miner likes to crash for no reasonThis is due to overclocking - you have to readjust it slightly.
I'd 100% agree with that. Thankfully it doesn't crash/freeze the PC unlike other software I've used. It just crashes the miner and kills it. Much better solution IMO, and easier to restart it if needed. Slight down clock does the trick.
Well my exp here is
With 1080, im getting 565-570 Sols, on EWBF
With DSTM, about 550sols, - 2% fee = 540 sol = nah not gonna use DSTM
With my 1080Ti rigs, I see some slight improvement over EWBF, but If I take 2% fee into consideration, then Im at the same speed as with EWBF.
So....using DSTM Im not getting anything extra, in fact i would be losing $$.
ANd then, if it starts to crash, I have to redo my OC? and lower it = less Sols = even less$?
Nah thanks.

Nah thanks.
I've had better luck with higher clocks (sometimes drastic) with dstm. Course every Rig, PC and Software is different with each configuration slightly. Just to see if there was a major difference again, I tried the EWBF with the --fee 0 option on one of my 1060's. I was getting 305-308 sols average. DSTM same settings 322 sols average. So with a 6.5 dev fee I'm getting 8-11 more sols during mining. Not much but quicker but still in the positive column to the tune of a few extra bucks a month (given the markets current drop in price).
