Many people mine at Nicehash with gpus.

Nicehash mentions two names

CryptoNight7 = stratum+tcp://cryptonightv7.eu.nicehash.com:3363
CryptoNightHeavy = stratum+tcp://cryptonightheavy.eu.nicehash.com:3364

So the question asked was valid and an answer from anyone that is not gpuhoarder Since it is his product carries zero weight if it fails to mine at least one of the two above

So @ gpuhoarder does it mine one of the two above?

for me I plan on mining mostly x16r , but some want to mine at the addresses above.

Whattomine calls it cryptonight v7 also, but it is monero chain fork 7, that changed from cryptonight (v0) to cryptonight v1 which adds a few operations to the main loop and the setup phase to kick asics off the network.

This is the last time i will say it, what acorn can mine is the current monero fork monero7 using cryptonight v1, the one where you dont fight asics. It does NOT mine the old cryptonight (v0) variant that asics are all over, and it does not mine cryptonight heavy.

I dont see why you need gpuhorder to confirm this, sqrl site clearly says cryptonight v1, and that is whats really driving monero atm, go google it, and you will find you that monero use cryptonight v1, cryptonight v7 does not exist. Ask anyone that knows the technical details of monero they will say its cryptonight v1.

Go read https://coin.fyi/news/monero/cryptonight-v7-vs-v1-a-nitpick-request-to-use-the-correct-algorithm-name-8b8o05

As I said I don't care about monero and will be mining x16r
Once again nicehash has a lot of miners on v7 as they call it not v1 as you call it.
I get that v1 and v7 = the same

just like BCC and BCH are both names for bitcoin cash yeah I know some will say no only BCH is correct.

I am not responsible for bittrex calling Bitcoin cash BCC
I am not responsible for nicehash calling the new fork V7

squirrels says it mines v1 on its website not v7
nicehash has no mention of v1 on its website.

So unless squirrels confirms it will mine v7 on nicehash people will be afraid to buy the gear.
I did not make this up. I am clearly stating peoples concerns

nicehash
cryptoNightV7 = stratum+tcp://cryptonightv7.eu.nicehash.com:3363

I am not confused since I know that many websites use different terms.
Such as Bittrex calling Bitcoincash BCC
Some people are confused.

on a different tack

Youtube video was nice to see but since it was released on July 29th and not 1 single acorn in site not one many will be nervous and see this as a way to buy time.

GPUHoarder mentioned a while back that "v1" was the correct term and that's what they will use. Most of us who are following this thread know that.

I follow 35 threads on gear and have mined with

50 different gpu models
20 different cpus
40 different asics.

I am well versed with many algos and have used many of them.

Many people just mine at nicehash and look at the choices there

CryptoNightV7 has 55MH/s on Nicehash

miningpoolhub has this guide

Miner Guide

A. Miner Setting

  Prerequisite

  Check whether you are a CPU/GPU(AMD&NVIDIA)/ASIC miner and install any miner depends on it.
  You will need proper server, port no., username/worker name and download the latest miner/wallet.

  Port no. 20580
  Server

  U.S.: us-east.cryptonight-hub.miningpoolhub.com:20580
  Europe: europe.cryptonight-hub.miningpoolhub.com:20580
  Asia: asia.cryptonight-hub.miningpoolhub.com:20580

Miner

  For GPU miner

  (1) Claymore GPU Miner

Download: Claymore's CryptoNight AMD GPU Miner - Windows, Linux

GPU: v.11.3 or above

Configuration e.g.:

NsGpuCNMiner.exe -pow7 1 -xpool ssl://us-east.cryptonight-hub.miningpoolhub.com:20580 -xwal username.workername -xpsw x

Add "-pow7 1" option to support Monero hardfork(hardfork activation height: 1546000).

FYI, "ssl://" is specified for secure network connection.

You can mine without this option but it is recommended to use because Claymore miner's devfee gets lower with this.
Also, it would help some outer firewall disconnection issues time to time.

  (2) Xmr-stak GPU Miner

Download: Xmr-stak AMD NVIDIA Miner - Windows, Linux

   Choose "monero7" option to support Monero hardfork(hardfork activation height: 1546000). look like they prefer to use 7

  For CPU miner

  (1) Claymore CPU miner

Download: Claymore's CryptoNote Windows CPU Miner

CPU: v.4.0 or above

Configuration e.g.:

NsCpuCNMiner64.exe -pow7 1 -o ssl://us-east.cryptonight-hub.miningpoolhub.com:20580 -u username.workername -p x

Add "-pow7 1" option to support Monero hardfork(hardfork activation height: 1546000). i see pow7

  (2) Xmr-stak CPU miner

Download: Xmr-stak CPU Miner - Windows, Linux

Choose "monero7" option to support Monero hardfork(hardfork activation height: 1546000). this looks to be 7

So to insist v1 is correct and v7 does not exist is fine by me I am simply telling you people don't see a 7 and they don't care to buy the gear.
