It's a GTX 670. has 1344 cuda cores. 1344x32 works at -L 512. No matter what I specify for -L, doubling doesn't work. Out of memory every time.

but can't you just ignore the out of memory? it's for scrypt related buffers mostly, which keccak doesn't need.

maybe -L 1024 -m 1 does the trick?



Nope, it actually crashes. It starts putting out crazy hashrates, but if you check the GPU load you can see it actually gave up and isn't doing anything.

On a 780 or something lower?

Increase -L to 1024 and doubling works :-)

I did, doesn't work for me.

One more tip for the latest maxcoin build.

For the kernel launch configuration: Take the total number of CUDA cores on your card, multiply by 2, and append x32 for the K kernel and x16 for the F kernel. Don't bother with the T kernel for the moment.

This should give somewhat higher performance than the original 1000x32 or 1024x32 configurations suggested in the README, especially on the biger cards like GTX 660Ti, GTX 780, etc...

Use -L 512 with these huge launch configurations or out of memory is guaranteed. But on the other hand, these out of memory errors don't prevent keccak hashing (the program just continues...). Cleaning up these unnecessary memory allocations would be the next item on my "finish the keccak feature" TODO list.

Christian


I tried this. but got out of memory errors when doubling. However, not doubling worked for about a 5mh increase. (-l 1344x32 -L 512)

GTX 670 if anyone else wants to use it.

New windows binaries released, github up to date and tagged, acceptance rates near 100%

Now hand me a beer.


So far my profit has been ten-fold, I don't think it's just luck Smiley

christian something has gone wrong
i am hashing all over the place now, as low as 1Mhash/s

at 45/64

every failure is a duplicate

EDIT: i just saw as low as 500khash/s being done
and that gets me the share accepted! lol

99% gpu load the entire time
and now down to 54/85

EDIT 2

so bad i have had to close the miner

Restart your PC and see if it gives you the same problem. I had this issue with the 12-18 version, seems my drivers had somehow stopped giving a damn. Rebooting reset it.

now i try running from x84 and getting the following message . this application has failed to start because MSVCR100.dll was not found?Huh?

any ideas please?

you said it all, not found... you need to add this library
WRONG
He needs to compile "Release" not "Debug"

I'm sorry but you need to double check your facts before calling others wrong.

He needs this http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=5555.

He's not trying to compile anything.
Then why did the 12-18 version work for EVERYONE without the .dll?

Because almost everyone has that distributable installed. I've had people with 12-18 come to me with the same error. It's not exclusive.

Is anyone mining ypool with a GTX670 and have it working?

No matter what I try I keep getting "boos". I have the xptProxy open and it is connected to ypool and ypool shows my worker connected.

I am literally at a loss.

I just want to see if someone is connected and running to see if I have something wrong.

cudaminer does not work with ypool for maxcoin. That xptProxy is Scrypt only.

Anyone else still solo mining ?

I have 3x GTX 780 going at it solo and still found 2 blocks today, even with the big difficulty spikes.  Solo mining still seems way more profitable with the odd block a day giving 96 coins vs what you'd get at a pool.

I have to restart my cudaminer once every minute because of massive amounts of boo's, but so far I've gotten 4MaxCoins from poolmining in like an hour... that's with 1x 780Ti. Wish this damn stratum crap would go away so I don't have to monitor my miner...

You downloaded the 2-7 version right? There was an issue with the stratum. As long as you've done that, there's no need to restart your miner. the boooos will clear themselves when the stratum picks back up, restarting probably won't save you that much.

Has anyone resolved the massive boo-ratio? Or maybe it's a server-side issue?

Seems to be mostly from stratum load. Different pools don't have it nearly as bad, some have it worse.

is this 2 full blocks i hear? i.e. 192 coins?

how many mh's would you need to mine 2 blocks a day at this diff? im throwing alot at it and not much to show so far via pool

since 10am this morning, ive mined 192 coins or 2 blocks. its now almost 11pm so 12 hours at 160Mhash/s

Same here, @ 220Mh/s currently have 2 blocks today.

Most of mine came from the initial 1-2 hours of rush.

Wait, you were able to get 2 blocks, solo, today?

I've got about 300kh, and I figured that was too low for solo at this point...

is maxcoin-qt wallet working for you ... It keeps to stop working all the time I want to open it ... any ideas why ?

Devs suck at making wallets. It's not just you. Stick to command line for now.

Works for me with 22 active connections. I might use the CLI for solomining though to be sure.

What OS? Windows 8, with or without compatibility mode and run as admin, all "stopped working" within seconds of opening.

Guys, so no pool currently works well? Any recomends at all? I'm currently using rocketpool and submited over 1000 shares, but they don't seem to register at all in the system.

Mine were registering until the last hour. The pool is under heavy load, maybe DDoS as well, and it keeps dropping out. PPLNS may be lagging behind.

What command are you guys using to send coins from your wallet? I can't find anything other than how to check your balance and info.

maxcoind sendtoaddress address-here amount

For example:

maxcoind sendtoaddress asd9876asdjh1 199

Thanks Smiley

Check again, it went back down. Smells of DDoS. Possibly bitter CPU miners.

For those of you trying to mine on ypool

Go to How To, Click Doge, Download the xptproxy

Launch the proxy. use the address http://localhost:8332 with all your configure for cudaminer etc.

It should be able to connect and mine Smiley

Basically download this:

http://jhwork.net/ypool/xptproxy.zip

then cudaminer blah blah -o http://localhost:8332

bumping this for visibility.


Just FYI, this doesn't work for MAX as that proxy is scrypt only.

Christian, is there a problem with the windows code at the moment? I can't get it to compile with VS2010 for the life of me.
