I think if merge the latest code I can do 170Sol/s (gtx 1070) because I modded different parts of the code.

I still think I can do a free miner that does 170sol/s on the gtx 1070 that works on all pools. Sp-mod #2. But I don't have time right now.

You are about a month too late anyway so don't bother.

What is the point of donation?  Wouldn't the dev mining outweigh donation?  Also, more people would use because they don't have to donate before seeing if it is worth it to them, especially people with only a few cards.  Currently, with donation and dev fee, I would never make up my money with only 3 cards, and small boost in hashrate.  I get 150MH stock, so its not worth donation $62 for a chance to make $10 more per month. I mostly have 470s, I like Claymore miner because there isn't voodoo donate, I promise its faster, and there are a lot of awesome features.

Because he's greedy?

You are late to the party with LBRY. And what kind of boosts are we going to see? One percent? Two percent?

Speed improvements where verified by one of the 0.1 donator.s (go6ooo1212)

Spmod #1 980ti 1467 core clock +12%

go6ooo1212 also got his 970 to mine @ 160MHASH. My kernal could be clocked higher than the opensource, and stable.

...on an old card. Not impressed.

Sp_ please ditch the 0.1 fee, we subscribed a few times for that amount for different miners but you always come up with something else we should subscribe to.

I am curently testing the donation code in the LBRY sp-mod #1.

I plan to release Optimized Pascal lyra2v2,skein,pentablake,x17 etc.. as well. free for the the donators in the past(but with a donation %). The sp-mod ultimate.

Re: Claymore's Dual Ethereum+Decred GPU Miner v1.2

on 15/04/2016, 02:12:45 UTC

KNOWN ISSUES

- Weak/old cards like 7xxx/270/270X cannot handle dual mining properly, Ethereum mining is slower by about 10-15%.
- There is 1-3% performance issue for some 270/270x and Fury cards. It will be fixed soon.


So what about the 280 and the 280X? Do these also take a Ethereum performance hit?

Also, out of curiosity, concerning the fee: how does the fee work out if I'm dual mining on only some of m cards?

Thanks!

I just carefully read the blog post and now I have new questions..

If i'm buying a test group B address with 10K does it count as a balance in the farming address?
Quote
Rewards are directly proportional to the SJCX balance held in farming address.

If I buy an address with 10K and I only have 500GB space for farming, while others "contribute" 1TB after changing the scale, will I get a lower reward ?

Buying an address is equivalent to an existing crowdsale participant holding 10k SJCX...  thus new participants always get full rewards.

In other words...  you will get full rewards for allocating up to 500GB...  but the actual reward rates are not available yet.

I'm still confused on how/when/if using the beta GUI will payout. Here's what I'd like to know:

- When do you payouts happen?
- What is the rate?
- If you have zero in your SJCX wallet, will you still get a payment?
- It sounds like more than 500 gb doesn't matter at his point. Is this true?

I think sounds like a cool concept but before I let my computer run up the electric bills I'd like to learn more. Thanks.

What clocks would you recommend for 750 ti and a 980? I thought I remember someone here saying that memory clocks didn't make that much of a difference. Thanks.

You need to find out yourself. But I can give you a hint. The lyra2v2 can do 5.2MHASH@750ti with the sp-mod opensource kernal. But it won't do it with a gpu core of 1500MHASH, and intensity to the max. To mine with a profit you need to know your cards well. Changing the sourcecode in the kernals is not enough.

The opensource kernals kan perform 15-20% bether with a right config and overclocks.

Um... thanks?

The Lyra2v2 timings are depended on a good coreclock/memclock and boostclock (no trottle'ing)
The problem is when I mod a kernal to run fast on the 960, it might hurt the 970 performance.
When I mod a kernal to use more power, cards with little power will start to trottle.

The cryptomining blog has compared the 20 last sp-mod versions on the gtx 970:

So perhaps this is a bit off topic, but you guys seem like a knowledge group. Are the 750 ti's the most power efficient of the of the Maxwell cards? Thanks.

It greatly depends on where you live; for me the 970s are the best choice by far even if I only go for 4 x 970 per rig, but of course I also add 2 x 750 Ti.
While a 6 card 750 Ti rig looks great on paper, you can't really disregard the price of the whole PC itself (mb+cpu+memory+hdd+psu) which all adds up, disrupting the efficiency/ROI of a 6x750Ti rig. But of course YMMV.

ill be building a 6 x gigabyte 980ti g1 miner very shortly ( when the funds allow ) and will have the results in comparison to the 6 x gigabyte 750ti oc lp miner ...

this should give an indication ( hashrate also ) of how efficient these two machines are ... admittedly - ccminer-spmod - it will be a huge hashrate difference - but power efficiency will be the question with this - not hashrate ...

i am actually hardpressed to believe that the 6 x gigabyte 750ti oc lp miner would not be more efficient than the 6 x gigabyte 980ti g1 system ... even if all the computer power consumption is taken into effect ...

obviously this is not using the 970 as you specified - but i dont think thefarm will be upgraded to the 970 card - so i couldnt test that anyway ...

#crysx

I have a motherboard that has five PCI slots (two PCI's are the small version). It didn't like four 750 Ti's, but was fine with three 750 Ti's and 960. Do you think this is a Windows thing out of curiosity?

You can boost the core clock as well if you put the gpu in the p1 state.

p2 state: adjust memory
p1 state: adjust gpu boost clock

I think I will make code that does this automaticly with an option.. --Max-Boost --Max-memspeed

1. List all possible modes, parse the information and select the fastest for each gpu in the rig
2. Set p1 mode and set the max possible gpu-boost clock
3. set p2 mode and set the max possible memclock clock

The NVIDIA api is broken in x86 builds, so I will call the commandline from the c++ code in the same way I have done before. (windows only)

For 970 cards with 4pin+3pin connector, boosting is important to reach full speed. (but this costs more power)

Other cards will probobly trottle and perform worse..

(f.ex all the gtx 970 mini cards, and the 970 cards that are made small to fit in a small box.)
I can't get my 980ti to boost at all on mem.... Undecided

Sometimes I'm using nvidia inspector(from guru3d) to find out the actual state and boost the memory itself.
Maybe it can help You if You are using windows. It works on my 970 and 980.

How much hashrate are you getting with that? And for which algos?

Personally I never even OC memory clocks as it never giving me any noticeable speed just more power consumption and instability.

Do you increase the voltage though?

Happy birthday ccminers

Go get those coins

Cheers

Can someone post a binary? I'd like to try out it now. I haven't complied a Windows program before and admittedly I tried but couldn't do it with Visual Studio Express for some reason. I'm sure that's just the noob in me.  Tongue

Sorry if this has already been covered, but I need some help mining ScryptJaneLeo on Nicehash. Here are the cards one the first rig:

980
960

and the second rig

960
750
750 ti

I've seen optimizing settings for the 960, but I haven't seen settings for all of the cards above. How do I find these optimal settings? Also, how do I use the optimal settings if there different cards in the same system?

Thanks for the help!

So I'm assuming that long latency times can drop your earnings as the GPU goes for periods without getting work. Is there any way to improve this? It seems like it happens a lot. Do another pools have this problem?

Can you explain with is different with this build? I tried it and I'm getting slower performance than with the previous version. I'm running 14.4 drivers. Thanks.
What GPU you use and how much CPD you see?
Can you run benchmarks (xpmclient -b) with versions 9.4.1 and 10.0?

GeForce GTX 750Ti results:

XPM mining with 750Ti can be profitable after optimizations, if performance reaches 4+ CPD.. I think, it possible Smiley

So to answer your question, I'm running an R9 290. I was getting about 9 CPD with the new version and the older version I'm getting about 14 CPD. (I know this isn't the benchmark you were looking for but I'm away from my computer.) Again, I'm running the 14.4 drivers.

What performance are you seeing with an R9 290? It the performance lower because I'm using older drivers? If so, which version would you recommend?

Thanks!
