EWBF's NVidia CUDA Zcash miner 1060 - 170 h/s gtx 1070 - 250 h/s

hi guys,
sorry 4 bad english - but i don’t understand why my i/s and Sol/s are so low, and my 980 oc is only using ~900MB of 4GB
Look@picture
What i have do wrong?
Edit:
Using win10
My system is an i7-6700k with ~40°C @ 8x4,2Ghz, 32GB RAM from Corsair and an Asus Strix 980 o.C @ 1316Mhz CoreClock (2see@picture)

I’m using (user and workername i changed here)
in CPU.bat:
nheqminer.exe -t 8 -l europe.zcash.miningpoolhub.com:20570 -u usernameDOTworkername -p x
in GPU.bat:
nheqminer.exe -cd 0 -t 8 -l europe.zcash.miningpoolhub.com:20570 -u usernameDOTworkername -p x
pause
and in start.bat
nheqminer.exe -cd 0 -t 8 -l europe.zcash.miningpoolhub.com:20570 -u usernameDOTworkername -p x -od
pause

what doing i wrong?

hello, maybe try GPU.bat with EWBF miner (not nheqminer.exe)

miner --server zec-eu1.nanopool.org --user t1M…z5iM --pass z --port 6666 --eexit 3 --solver 0

a little bit better ^^ my games r useing more G-RAM ^^
look@picture - do i something wrong?

2.question…
where r the hases r going o.O
I tryt
miner --server europe.zcash.miningpoolhub.com --user accNameDOTworkername --pass x --port 20570
and
miner --server europe.zcash.miningpoolhub.com --user HashtagnumberDOTworkername --pass x --port 20570

twice with 0 hashrate :frowning:

thx…it works now :slight_smile:

sry, but after 3 hours I do not understand, why ewbf is onlny useing 1,2GB of 4GB V-RAM? is that normal?

Have we peaked in terms of hashrate upgrades? I see there haven’t been any new releases uploaded for quite some while between here and the nicehash thread. What’s next from here?

new release coming in the new couple of days according to ewbf in his BTC thread…

It’s more related to the fact that ZEC mining has become significantly less profitable recently so devs have less incentive to improve. I have a strange feeling ZEC mining is dying/slowing down significantly.

Version 0.3.0b.

EWBF’s Zcash cuda miner.
Expected speeds 400 - 420 sols/s gtx1070. 280 - 290 gtx1060. Stock settings.
Writen for pascal gpus but works on cards with at least 1Gb memory, and Compute Capability 2 and higher.
Miner contain dev fee 2%

Version 0.3.0b
Integrated nvml (NVIDIA Management Library) for temperature monitoring.
Added option --templimit for set max gpu temperature.
Added option --logfile for custom file name.
Added option --api simple json based api.
Option --solver now allow you to set solvers for different devices.
Optimizations up to 2% depends on cards.
See file Help.txt for more detailed help.

Anyone tested the Linux version ?

Thank you! Works nicely :slight_smile:

On Ubuntu 16.04 I got 272 H/s at the pool and 274-284 H/s locally.
without an outside fan and at default settings card temp rose to 81C (I am aware that you can set this up in --templimit), but with a small fan, back to 74C.
card: Zotac 1060 6gb mini (one fan)-the only one small enough to fit in my PC case.
EDIT:…EWBF is stable on Ubuntu, it never crashes

Any pointers to help getting EWBF to be stable on Ubuntu 16.04 server? X is not installed.

I installed just today. Updated/Upgraded, and installed 378.13 drivers.

I’ve three Geforce 1080’s. lspci shows all three. EWBF some times sees all three, but it also at times only sees two. One of the cards is running as expected, but the second one only shows 37 sol/s.

When three cards are seen, one dies minutes after starting EWBF.

Any and all help is appreciated.

Here’s the output from lspci:

05:00.1 Audio device: NVIDIA Corporation Device 10f0 (rev a1)

I also set the solver to be 1 for both cards (third still not detected) and the second card is still ~37 sol/s.

Did you install CUDA as well?
Or, maybe a bad riser (if it is on riser) or bad connection
you can also specify the cards ( i forgot the command, but it is in help)

Yes it appears to have been a bad USB cable … I went back and added the cards one at a time.

Is there anyway to tune the cards like MSI Afterburner on Windows?

Any1 mining with GTX 1060 3GB edition ? if so what sols/s you get with ewbf nonclock / oc ?

I’m using a GTX 1060 6GB @ my main computer getting about 300-310 sols/s @ stock.

So befor I might buy another gpu for my rig, would be nice to know what 3GB edition gives!

Thanks!

get a GTX1070, gives 470sol/s OCed
