Re: [ANN] cudaMiner - a new litecoin mining application [Windows/Linux]
I'll try it. I have a few tasks and bat files to restart ccminer periodically but a few of the cards hash at 5mh/s after restarting it post crash.
Works but reverts all cards to stock clocks.
X64 isn't crashing for you folks?
I might revert to yacoin using cudaminer if I can't fix this.

I do get some crashes but I've set up the task scheduler to always reboot my machine when it's a driver error and it restarts all the processes on startup, also restarting your overclock programs which fixes the driver crash resetting the clocks to +0. You can look up your event viewer after a crash and note down the 4 digit error number that corresponds to the driver crash and create a shutdown -r process that's triggered by it.
I've also lowered my overclocks a couple on my 750tis when I noticed that crashes seemed to reset an overclock on some of my cards but not the others... they seemed stable at first but overnight, they would crash two or three times and lowering to a modest overclock seems to lower that number to about one crash per day at most which might not be related to the overclock.

Anyone having trouble with hvy.1gh.com?
The first 25 units work fine, but then everything after that is a 'boooooo'.
The same setup just with the different wallet settings works fine at heavycoin.com

Close and start again in short intervals until vardiff stops being drunk and goes home.
Takes me 2-3 attempts at worst but I've found that if you leave it alone and just wait through all the boooos, it fixes itself eventually.
Re: [ANN] cudaMiner - a new litecoin mining application [Windows/Linux]
...and v0.5 is available at the place you all know and love: github
https://github.com/cbuchner1/ccminer/releases
NOTE: Great efforts need great donations. I'll split with Chris84!

I'm seeing close to threefold increase across the board on 750ti and 780ti.
I've got some donations for you as soon as I find my jaw somewhere on the floor.
Re: [ANN] cudaMiner - a new litecoin mining application [Windows/Linux]
No new vision?
tonight's vision was to nearly double the HVC hashing speeds. We found ways to cut the size of the divergent paths and to remove the use of local memory in the kernel.
I think we've turned Heavycoin, Fuguecoin and Groestlcoin into nVidia coins.
Christian
so when can we expect a release? ^^
we're still working on getting MOAR out of it... Interesting that it took 30 seconds to fully kick in
this is 3 GTX 780Ti cards on the 1gh pool.

Holy internets!
I can't wait to try it out. HVC has actually been climbing back up in the past few hours.
As always, thanks for your efforts, Christian and Christian!
Re: [ANN] cudaMiner - a new litecoin mining application [Windows/Linux]
I dont find anything HVC in 30 minutes on heavycoinpool.com and 556650 Shares submitted , and 15000 kh/s ( 3 Nvidia 750 ti ) 
.
.the smaller pools will take more time to find blocks. It's because the big guys like 1gh pool dominate so much. Just be patient.
Christian
Not work ccminer on http://hvc.1gh.com/ ?
.
it works for me but sometimes you have to start the miner several times before the stratum behaves well (no boos and reasonable intervals between shares)
Oh man, thanks for that. If you hadn't said that, I would have given up on it a while ago.
Now that from what I can tell, I have to restart the miner up to 5-6 times until the diff seems high right away from the start and then it will typically accept about ~12 shares, reject ~10 shares and start behaving normally after that. YMMV
Re: [ANN] cudaMiner - a new litecoin mining application [Windows/Linux]
Question: Can I expect better hashrates compiling for 3.0/3.5 on a 780ti ? Using this release I am getting about 22000 khash/s on a 2x 780ti & 3930K system.
what coin?
Heavy.
Thanks
Same situation.
It doesn't seem to use more than 77% of the gpu though.
Re: [ANN] cudaMiner - a new litecoin mining application [Windows/Linux]
That project is separate from cudaminer as Christian mentioned.
...so far. I am not excluding the possibility to merge it right in. It depends on how we will decide to release it.
Christian
(That's a good thing, make up your own mind, don't let others tell you what to do!)
He undoubtedly has thought of all of that and probably has been mulling over it earlier than any of us even thought of it.
I know it'd be a pretty complex decision to me if I were in his shoes.
As far as I'm concerned, I don't have much of a horse in this race anymore. I've fully paid off 5 750tis and one 780ti that I would never have been able to afford if it weren't for cudaminer and whatever I can make from now on is strictly profits. If the man makes the calculated decision to continue solo, that's his decision to make. If he would like to borrow his following's hashpower, I'll be the first to sign up.
Re: [ANN] cudaMiner - a new litecoin mining application [Windows/Linux]
I'd be more than okay with running a binary blob that hardwires a portion of the mined coins to christian's wallet directly.
If there needs to be an incentive over hashing by himself rather than distributing it, then he can easily do the math as a lot of us command well over a dozen cards worth of hashpower.
Distribute it in binary form to even a few folks and you'll be making 0.25btc a day look like a joke.
I know I'd volunteer
I guess problem with that idead is that cudaminer is open source and anyone can change the code. Well i have stirred the hornet's nest here I think

Re: [ANN] cudaMiner - a new litecoin mining application [Windows/Linux]
You guys are delusional ...
If you want to convince him (i.e. to distribute the cuda HVC miner), you must come up with offers that do not insult intelligence and cover 0.25BTC/day which he is already making (and more if he grabs more cards or rents Amazon EC2 Gpu instances), not your shitty 0.01 BTC or (LOL!) $30.
Oh, and it's not a "donation". You must pay for the service and development time at hour rate.

Re: [ANN] cudaMiner - a new litecoin mining application [Windows/Linux]
Anyone know any good working launch configs for 780's on Yacoin?
The one in the readme doesn't work, actually nothing with uppercase 'T' works, but rather lowercase 't'.
cudaminer.exe -l t128x2 -L 4 -i 0 -b 16384 --algo=scrypt-janeThe one in the readme doesn't work, actually nothing with uppercase 'T' works, but rather lowercase 't'.
bad screen response peaks at 5.7khash.s
Oh man, thanks so much for this.
I've read about 150 pages looking for up-to-date info on scrypt-jane settings but still couldn't get a working one after hours of trial and error...
You wouldn't happen to have something for the 750ti and the 780ti?
For the frequency at which all this esoteric and ephemeral knowledge is being tested, published and forgotten after an update, you'd think there would be a collective bounty on a well-maintained repertoire of optimized settings for all common gpus... I wouldn't mind pitching in.
Re: [ANN] cudaMiner - a new litecoin mining application [Windows/Linux]
Helix at the moment but I remember the maxcoin pools doing the same thing.
It's actually slightly higher than half but it's consistently about 40% lower than it should...
I'm currently using your latest build with the T2880x24 command on a 780ti.

we could try tinkering a bit with the difficulty target in the cudaminer code (artificially lowering it).
If the pools still accept these shares, you would see a higher hash rate and higher payouts
Christian
Just to add that I too have a similar experience, with the latest & greatest release from today (and also around Max release). I'm seeing the same 40% less hashrate reported by the pool with Helixcoin. Nothing seems to change if I setup separate workers for my GTX770 & the GTX 750 TI, or if I keep them on a single launch command.
The only thing odd that I've noticed, is that the hashrate reported by the pool get's closer to the value reported by Cudaminer, when higher Vardiff kicks in (at say 128). At Vardiff 32 & 64 the discrepancy is much larger, and it's not a case of just the expected variations in share findings or luck, as I see the same hashrate reported over long periods of time (as long as the Vardiff remains the same).
Is it possible that the "changes" or "fix" that you worked on shortly after the Maxcoin launch have left some gremlin vestiges?
PS: Again an awesome bump for the 'green team' with that latest update with the hand from nvidia. Big thanks for the update Christian. I'm surely going to donate as soon as I'm fortunate to get a break on a new coin/algo launch.
Cheers!
Thank you for corroborating.
Over longer periods of time, the hashrate reported by the pool seems to shrink even more to perhaps 1/5th of what's being reported directly from the client. After trying all manners of shenanigans, I've noticed that restarting my cudaminer every few minutes seems to attenuate, if not eliminate, the problem a little so it definitively feels like it's some kind of error with vardiff...
Unless this can be somehow fixed, it's currently more profitable to mine vertcoin.
Re: [ANN] cudaMiner - a new litecoin mining application [Windows/Linux]
Every pool still reports only half of my keccak hashrate for some reason.
It doesn't seem to happen with amd cards though so I wonder if this is a problem on my end...

Re: [ANN] cudaMiner - a new litecoin mining application [Windows/Linux]
Yes the nVidia submitted kernel is expected to run 10-20% faster than Dave Andersen's kernels.
*sigh* I was almost hoping that was not the case. Now In good consonance I can't leave it be and only hash @ 500 kh/s a card.
Back to fucking this some more.
500 is fairly good on a Titan without overclocking. I've got my solo titan at 620 with +155 Core -502 Mem, try it.
Is that using the latest cudaminer? What kernal settings are you using?
Yes, latest version cudaminer, tried both x64 and x86 versions, same within a few khash of each other.
Settings are: -m0 -l T5x24 -i 0 -H 1 currently, although I have tried different values and none seem to make much, if any, difference.
I was also in the same boat after receiving my 750ti and not being able to break past 275ish until I started getting really aggressive with memory clocks. From my experience, the card starts hitting a power limit when the memory clocks get around 650 to 700 and while the overclock still seems stable then, the core overclock is reduced the more I push the memory.
My current working settings are +75 core +650memory along with -l T5x24 -H 1 -i 0 -m 1 and it gets me about 335-345khs +/-15 with less than 0.5% rejects. I only have one card running on the main 16x slot and the model is the EVGA ftw acx edition with the extra 6pins power connector.
Good luck, I hope you get your 300+ out of your card.
Re: [ANN] cudaMiner - a new litecoin mining application [Windows/Linux]
Here are my initial results with six 750 Ti FTWs at +40 core (1360-80mhz-ish) and +550 memory.
http://i.imgur.com/jUkbGPD.png
81w idle and 547w mining scrypt. 3.46 K/hash per watt.
Powered usb 3.0 risers, MSI Z77A-GD65, 1000w Raidmax gold psu.
I tried to use 7 cards but my system won't even post with it physically plugged into in the last slot.
Overall, a nice inexpensive upgrade from my three 670s. The default 42% fan speed noise level is ridiculous though.

Beauty! That's really promising!
Do all the FTWs get to 1360ish with no voltage/bios mod?
Damn I wish I had grabbed 3 of those for myself...
I might just do that on monday if there are any left.
Re: [ANN] cudaMiner - a new litecoin mining application [Windows/Linux]
But what will you do in the summer when the big guns come out? ;-) amd are planning heavy miner gpus. What do you think nvidia is going for with such low power overheads for such a low price :-)
Likely spending the rest of my mini-MAX coin "fortune" lol. Already building 2 6*7950 rigs and just researching what I'd like to do with an Nvidia rig. The new Maxwells are tempting with a ~90 break even and low initial cost.
Also, I doubt AMD has something lined up unless it is very specific to the mining market separate from their GPUs. The R9 290X is already based on their new architecture Hawaii and is very power hungry and hot, so they'll need another approach before they release more, lol.
I actually stopped by here due to this article: http://www.forbes.com/sites/jasonevangelho/2014/02/20/nvidia-is-about-to-steal-the-cryptocurrency-mining-crown-from-amd/
It has a blurb about the r7-265 comparison, similar hashrate 150 watts for the r7-265 and 60 watts for the 750TI.
Anyway I wanted to hear some other's input, thinking of order 6 right now from New Egg to build a test rig, but want to confirm the math. Supposedly 280 kHash slightly OC at 60 watts, heck even a 6 card rig would only need a 500 watt PS, would be saving all around if true.
You can easily get these cards over 300kh with max GPU OC (+135) and a +200 or better memory OC.
Has anyone measure the increased wattage draw when overclocking? That seems to be the main benefit, if they go up too much past 60 watts I think.
I am going to buy one just for testing, but would be interested in any other experiences and what the best setup for a 6 card rig would be. For sure a reasonably priced MB with 5 or more slots would be nice, as mentioned the ASRock 6 slot BTC one always seems sold out. Also I think a 600 watt PS would be plenty? I see Corsair ones on sale from time to time under 50 bucks. Thinking if you build supporting infrastructure for under $200 (MB, CPU, PS, USB Stick) ,might be a viable rig.
Also, anyone have a BAMT type image with Cudaminer going yet? To make these work I would think a USB based boot image would be best>
So far you can't adjust the TDP past 100%. So I would say 60w is the max draw but I haven't measured it.
Really? Even the models that have the extra connector? Then what's the point of even paying an extra 10 bucks for the better cooler and the power pin?
That's kind of a bummer... I was hoping to get a 1.4ghz overclock from one but now it seems a long shot unless someone makes a custom bios.
Re: [ANN] cudaMiner - a new litecoin mining application [Windows/Linux]
I'm not the type to pile on but bter is also that exchange that was notorious for holding onto large sums of inbound VTC just for long enough to see their value tank. I had 132 VTC trapped in a black hole for about 24 hours where the transaction was confirmed well above 6 times and yet the site just didn't admit it ever happened. Now, it's happening for yacoin. Do you believe in mass coincidences?
Re: [ANN] cudaMiner - a new litecoin mining application [Windows/Linux]
I don't think you have all the NVidia drivers installed. You're probably either running the stock windows drivers or you didn't install PhysX. Hit up their site, download the GeForce experience thing under drivers and do a full install, that should sort you out. I wouldn't expect too much out of a mobile card though. Also, you can just do -d 0 or -d 1 but I'd be shocked if it picked up on the onboard graphics.

[2014-02-19 17:01:32] Unable to query CUDA driver version! Is an nVidia driver installed?
I believe this is due to the Laptop specs, it has both a NVidia GT55M 2GB and a Intel card. I have set the NVidia card to be the default card but it does not seem to be enough. I can't disable the Intel Card. I have a Lenovo ideapad Y570, is a fairly good and powerful laptop, I would like to get some juice out of it.
Any ideas? I am ready to donate my first Litecoin to the right answer

I do have them, stock drivers intalled from Lenovo, and then official update. I have Nvidia control panel and can see card properties and select it as default card for stuff like Windows Media and so on. This is a Switchable graphics laptop.
I already tried -d 0 and -d 1 with no luck
You could try -d gt555m but if the switchable system actually powers the nvidia gpu off, then this will definitively not work.
Have you tried looking into your graphics options and see if there's an option in power management that lets you chose which program gets to use which gpu where you could add cudaminer to the list?
I don't have an optimus laptop so I can't really look for you but that seems like the most likely solution.
