Re: [ANN] cudaMiner & ccMiner CUDA based mining applications [Windows/Linux/MacOSX]
At this point I'm starting to think I'll just forget about that part and start looking if there's something else to be improved. I'm still curious as to how it runs on other hardware, so if a couple of gents on Win boxes with something else than a 750 Ti in would be willing to take it for a spin, I'd appreciate it. I've added the number for SMX/SMM/Whateverthingmabobs into the miner thread start-up info, you'll probably find your card performing best when the block count is a multiple of the SMX count and the number of threads a power of 2. 4/8/16/32/64 are the best bets.

Improved hashrate of about 70H/s on a 780ti. Up from 320 to about 390 (using 8x60). Also doesn't seem to hang and bring the system to it's knees when using all GFX cards.
Seems to be in line with the ~18% improvements I saw when benchmarking only the AES part of the kernel. Have you tried other configs? 390 is still pretty low for a 780 Ti, I think people were getting best results with 4x120 on the 780 Ti.
Getting about 420h/s with 4x120.

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.

I have no problems with windows 8.1, just the performance on 780ti is pretty bad compared to 750ti cards. i.e. I'm getting similar hashrates to what others have reported here for the 780ti ~270hash/s (using 4x120).
Re: [ANN] cudaMiner & ccMiner CUDA based mining applications [Windows/Linux/MacOSX]
Mining x11 (Logic Coin) for the first time with ccminer-v1.0 and here are my results:
ccminer30
660Ti SC --> 1750 khash/s
660Ti ------> 1670 khash/s
780Ti SC --> 3040 khash/s
ccminer35
780Ti SC --> 2700 khash/s
So the big iron runs compute 3.0 better than 3.5.

So the big iron runs compute 3.0 better than 3.5.
I am also seeing a higher hashrate with compute 3.0 compared to 3.5 on a 780Ti (mining x11 at drkpool):
ccminer30 - ~3500 khash/s
ccminer35 - ~2900 khash/s
Odd.
Re: [ANN] cudaMiner & ccMiner CUDA based mining applications [Windows/Linux/MacOSX]
I wasted early 4 hours of mining on Saffroncoin today because I forgot to set the algo=groestl line in the saffroncoin.conf file.
At least I was smart enough to turn off the rigs when I noticed no hashes were found.
can we use ccminer -a myr-gr for solo mining Saffroncoin or must set -a groestl ?At least I was smart enough to turn off the rigs when I noticed no hashes were found.
ccminer uses --a myr-gr, but the .conf file requires algo=groestl
despite the different naming, both options refer to the same algorithm.
(wonder if it wouldn't be easier to mine on scrypt...)
I got 3 blocks early on and nothing since. Looks like it's not feasible to solo-mine it anymore.
Re: [ANN] cudaMiner - a new litecoin mining application [Windows/Linux]
Does the Myriad-Groestl ccminer work with regular Groestl?
Not with regular Groestl algo, ccminer works with "--algo=myr-gr". Tested here with 0.5 and 0.6 ccminer on 780ti.
read the --help description for infinite wisdom
Code:
-a, --algo=ALGO specify the algorithm to use\n\
fugue256 Fuguecoin hash\n\
heavy Heavycoin hash\n\
groestl Groestlcoin hash\n\
myr-gr Myriad-Groestl hash\n\
jackpot Jackpot hash\n\
fugue256 Fuguecoin hash\n\
heavy Heavycoin hash\n\
groestl Groestlcoin hash\n\
myr-gr Myriad-Groestl hash\n\
jackpot Jackpot hash\n\
Heh, I just misread the question.
unrelated question. I tried today Myr-groestl and groest and get respectively 19.5MHash/s and 10MHash/s with the 780ti (is this correct numbers ?).
Regarding the groestl, the previous version was getting me 7.5MHash/s (at 80% tdp) the 10MHash is at 100%tdp
Regarding the groestl, the previous version was getting me 7.5MHash/s (at 80% tdp) the 10MHash is at 100%tdp
Similar to my hashrates for both algos.

Re: [ANN][AC]AsiaCoin - Full block reward arriving - PoS|No IPO|Zero Premine
Yeah mining this coin is kind of fucked up right now. Over 24 hours of mining and just showing an unconfirmed payout now. Tried a bunch of pools and still waiting on unconfirmed from yesterday. Basically just gave up mining this coin. If they don't reduce the block sizes to increase the confirms and payouts, this coin is going to die a quick death with no miners. No miners, no demand, no coin.
I'm mine on http://ac.okaypool.com/ , everything is fine, Same, been mining at this pool from the beginning. All good so far.
Re: [ANN] cudaMiner - a new litecoin mining application [Windows/Linux]
I re-read their description and yeah it's X11 + hamsi + fugue. The EMC2 part is just the stratum adjusted to donate 2.5% to "a community decided wildlife fund".
sph-sgminer already works for it for AMD cards.

Re: [ANN] cudaMiner - a new litecoin mining application [Windows/Linux]
wait for the release of the next ccminer, it will triple groestl hash rate on 750 Ti's....
Also it will likely have good Quark and X11 speeds (way above that of AMD)
Christian
And then X13 appears! A mash between X11 and EMC2 from their descriptions. Any interest in adding that next?

Re: [ANN] cudaMiner - a new litecoin mining application [Windows/Linux]
What version of cudaminer is it i keep seeing? Being every screen shot lately reports the users temps?
It's the latest compile from source files on github. There was an update on github ~2 days ago. If you compiled from that you should see the new temp readings. That said, the latest compile is a little slower for me compared to the previous version (scrypt-N at least, haven't tested other algos).
Re: [PRE-ANN] AustraliaCoin AUS- IPO, Release Info, Coming Soon.
Besides the name, what does this coin have to do with Australia? Unlike some of the other "country-coins" this doesn't seem to offer anything to the citizens of the country (Australians).
No innovation with the coin itself either, using regular old scrypt. Considering the power costs in Aus you'd think you would use a more energy efficient algorithm and introduce somthing like PoS. Otherwise this just another pump and dump coin (assuming you'll get any pump at all).

Re: [ANN] cudaMiner - a new litecoin mining application [Windows/Linux]
Am I running faster than Christian's 4 cards with only 2 here? 
/edit: I'm running 0.4 ccminer win x64 compute 3.5 compile.
/edit: I'm running 0.4 ccminer win x64 compute 3.5 compile.
well to be fair, these 4 cards were 1 GT 640, 2 x GTX 750Ti, 1x GTX 780...
Ah that makes much more sense! I thought it was based off your 780ti's

Re: [ANN] cudaMiner - a new litecoin mining application [Windows/Linux]
I know it works, but using 1gh is bad for the coin. It's in your best interest, as it is in every HVC holder's interest, to distribute hashpower across multiple pools. Since you are in the midst of configuring your miner, NOW is your opportunity to do so. Take your pick:
heavycoinpool.com | 233Mh
heavy.stablehash.com | 29Kh
heavycoin.zhpool.com | 44Mh
hvc.pool.mn | 0Mh
hvc.crunchharder.net | 0Mh
hvc.nonce-pool.com | 561Mh
1GH.com has about 15+Ghash/s right now. Definitely need to spread the hashes out a bit more.
Re: [ANN] cudaMiner - a new litecoin mining application [Windows/Linux]
about 100 HVC per 30 min with 12 Mhash currently
We will triple the hash rates today after discovering a way to optimize this greatly.
Damn! I only get about 6 HVC per 30mins lol... such small peas.
