First build of cudaMiner (GPU) by cbuchner1 is already available for MaxCoin's keccak now:

i'll have a look. thanks

It didn't say is for Maxcoin

It does, keccak (SHA-3) is the algorithm MaxCoin uses. It's an nvidia GPU miner.

Two other coins also use SHA-3. You just can't use any SHA-3 miners.  Else why not use use the GPU miner.exe from those SHA-3 coins.

NOTE: the specific Keccak implementation differs a great deal from eCoin... Those trying the eCoin GPUminers will be in for a surprise...

This is exactly why I posted the link.
It is a freshly compiled custom build for MaxCoin's implementation of SHA-3, built by the creator of cudaMiner: cbuchner1.
