GTX 1060 3GB mining BEAM = Problem

[FATAL ] CUDA: failed to alloc 2924 MB for main data

Segmentation fault.

I tested it on Gminer 1.49 and it worked.

miniZ is the best miner, if you can fix the bug, thank you.

Hi daem0n,

Are you trying to run 150,5 algorithm, on Windows 10? The 3GB GPUs cannot run 150,5 on Windows 10.
It is possible on Windows 7, but you have to run with --mode 3 option. This will run GPUs in mode 3, but they will run a bit slower (in this case Gminer may be faster...). You can try first with --mode 10, it may not work but it is worth to try.

If you are having this message for just one of your 1060 3GB, you can add --mode0 3 to your command line. This will run GPU 0 in mode 3 (change 0 to n, being n the GPU that is having memory problem).

Windows does not allow miniZ to use all GPU memory. On Linux this limitation does not exist and miniZ will run at full speed.

Beam will introduce a few changes in the algo, we will try to look at this in the future.
Maybe we can shrink it a bit more so that it can fit also on Windows 10 (and/or improve it for Windows 7). In order to help us with that, could you paste here the beginning of console output when you start miniZ?

Let us know if this helps.
Cheers

I'm running on ethos 1.3.2 LINUX
