Hi EWBF_,
OK thanks for the reply. BTW do you expect any great hashrates from the new Nvidia Turing GPUs with your miner? Do the new Tensor Cores and RT Cores of RTX 2080ti will have any benefit to the hashrate? Or is it just the regular Shader/Compute Cores that will be used for mining?

Hi, this is a good question, but the information is still not enough. RT and tensor cores can only be used for specific tasks, I do not think they will be useful for existing algorithms, at least for most of them. On the other hand, I saw this: https://videocardz.com/newz/nvidia-upgrades-l1-and-l2-caches-for-turing, and I think it's cool and will help to a "memory intensive" algorithms.
In any case, these are only my assumptions, and it is better to wait for the full information.


Ok, i've created that directory and copied inside that file.
Now that problem is fixed, thank you.
Last question: are you scheduled to reintroduce 200_9 ?? I'm very happy if it is possible

I answered this question a couple of posts earlier.


Dear EWBF,

I use EWBF's Cuda Equihash Miner 0.5 mining algo 144_5 with my two 1080ti cards,but why tow cards have different hashrate GPU0: 65 Sol/s GPU1: 37 Sol/s,what wrong and how should i to solve

Check the usage of gpu and the clock speed. Use MSI Afterburner, GPU-Z or any similar tool.

Any update with the 96_5 algorithm? A new Cuda toolkit is out now so there might be a few optimizations made by NVIDIA that you can utilitize. Do you also plan to develop a mining software support for the upcoming turing cards?

Currently I'm working on improvements 192 7, and, of course, I'm waiting for the Turing generation and will support them.
