In comments there is a link to the modified exe:

https://github.com/laytoneverson/XmrStakBuild

Looks like, it is enough - just to replace xmr-stak.exe file.
And you got 0% miner.

To me author seems trusty, because of public available info and family photos.. (of course that can be stolen identity, but i don't think so..)


Just saw, that github link are down, yesterday it worked.
Uploaded just exe (config file contains author personal info, maybe thats why he removed..)

No source code in GNU GPL lincesed miner... there couldn't be bigger SCAM alert! I would believe it once I got source code for that and build it by myself...

If you think so, then probably need some test pool, where only one miner with MOD version are connected. And then need to monitor hashrate, and is there traceable additional wallet activity...

I compared this MOD on two independent systems. On both there was ~ 5.5% extra H/s, interesting.

A few minutes ago i found this mode there too: https://github.com/c0d3rmod/xmr-stak-c0d3r

I just did that, pasted 3files from modified version to the existing xmr-stak folder.

Previously my one of the Gigabyte VEGA 64 OC model was able to reach 1926H/s, but now with modified version it is: 2032H/s (not overclocked, but undervolted..)

I dont think, that it is just a number on the screen for the show..
