I took the time to finally get xptMiner to compile with GCC for Windows.
It was a nightmare for me, but what does that mean for you?  Christmas may have come early.

I've compiled my optimized code for each of the following architectures: generic, core2, corei7, corei7-avx, k8, k8-sse3, and barcelona (k10).

The Windows x64 binaries are available from here:

Use whichever corresponds to your processor architecture.

If you're unsure, here's a quick guide based on your CPU manufacturer and age:
Intel: [Older] core2 -> corei7 -> corei7-avx [Newer]
AMD: [Older] k8 -> k8-sse3 -> barcelona (k10) [Newer]
Worst case scenario, use generic.


I will not be releasing any 32-bit builds.  "High performance 32-bit" is an oxymoron.


Let me know what sort of improvements you see!
Some builds may be slightly slower than the stock jh00 miner.  It all depends on your CPU.
nice! Didn't see this before. Good job getting that working. I Wonder about speeds vs. Visual Studio builds, since these target specific architectures.
