Minor update + Win binary: https://github.com/tsiv/ccminer-cryptonight/releases

No longer wasting CPU cycles on busy waiting, some checks on the initial memory allocations before getting to work and per device launch settings.

Seems like we have a lot of Win 8 users with problems, but apparently it works for some. It is a mystery, my money is still on hitting TDR. If that's the case http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2665946 will provide a workaround. It's not pretty but increasing the timeout from the default 2 seconds to something like 5 seconds shouldn't hurt anyone. The real fix would be breaking up the kernel into smaller pieces that are run in sequence as opposed to one huge kernel that does the whole hash in one go and takes near forever (well, over 2 seconds) to do it. Looking into that, should be relatively easy. A compute 2.0/2.1 version shouldn't be too hard either but I'm not sure if they're going to perform too well and worse than bad is... very bad?

Don't care if they perform as well as a 750ti. We don't really expect them to.

However, comparitively, a 750ti is supposed to be around the same compute performance, if not better... than the R9-270/270x/7850/7870 AMD card family.
I have 2x 7870 cards, that get 340h/s each overclocked to 1200/1250 (gpu/mem). I also get 125h/s out of an old 1156 Xeon X3460.

I would expect a new GPU like a 750ti with compute 5.0 capability to outperform a 5-6yr old CPU that doesn't have AES-NI. Tongue

I'm sure cbuchner1 could chime in here... and help a brother out.

Great job with porting it over, now it's time to polish and refine. Tongue

Let's show Claymore that closed-source is not the way to go!

Oh... btw. I'll donate 10% each cryptonote currency that I mine for a month if you get a 2.0/2.1 version out for Windows out soon!
