Author: Topic: mkxminer: fast Lyra2rev2 miner for AMD GPUs (Vertcoin, Monacoin, Verge, STRAKS) (Read 33806 times) This is a self-moderated topic.

It seems that the last day MonaCoin (MONA) has exploded in price and profitability for mining as a result, so there is increased interest from miners. So here is a 32-bit Windows binary (CUDA 8.0) of the latest ccMiner 2.2-based fork from Nanashi Meiyo-Meijin () with optimized Lyra2REv2 performance. The code is based around the ccMiner 2.2 release from tpruvot, but offers faster performance for Lyra2REv2 with up to about 10% (depending on the GPU being used) compared to other publicly available forks.

The Lyra2REv2 algorithm is performing very well on Nvidia-based mining rigs, so with the current low altcoin mining profitability you might want to give it a try. The profitability of VertCoin (VTC) is lower, but still pretty high compared to some other coins and algorithms at the moment, so it is also an alternative as the profit for MONA can start to drop soon. Here is an updated ccMiner 1.7.6-r10 Widows binary of the Nanashi Meiyo-Meijin fork () with optimized Lyra2RE and Lyra2REv2 performance. The latest r10 update fixes the hashrate issues that were present with other versions of ccMiner on the latest Nvidia Pascal GPUs such as GTX 1080 and GTX 1070. You can see a brief test of the performance of the new 32-bit Windows binary of the miner compiled with VS2013 and CUDA 8.0 below.

CcMiner 1.7.6-r10 Neoscrypt performance: – GTX 1080 – 985 KHS – GTX 1070 – 889 KHS – GTX 980 Ti – 840 KHS Just as a reference the latest ccMiner fork by SP has managed to provide just about 365 KHS on GTX 1080 and 668 KHS on GTX 1070, so now you can fully utilize the performance of the new Nvidia Pascal GPUs for mining NeoScrypt-based crypto coins. Do note that the results quoted above are with –. Here comes an updated ccMiner 1.7.6-r6 Widows binary of the Nanashi Meiyo-Meijin fork () with optimized Lyra2REv2 performance. The latest r6 update might bring a slight performance increase in Lyra2REv2, however it significantly increases the performance of the Lyra2RE algorithm based on the few tests we ran, results of which you can find below comparing the r5 and r6 released on different Maxwell GPUs and the new Pascal GTX 1080.

In this guide we will be mining Monacoin (MONA) with Nvidia GPUs and mining it from the mining pool Suprnova. Mining For MonaCoin MONA Explained on this page. Mining Monacoin with ccminer – What you’ll need In order to start mining Mona with ccminer for Nvidia CUDA you’ll need to have a few things squared away. In order to use this guide, you’ll need: • A GPU Mining Rig (with Nvdia GPUs) running Windows or Linux • A Monacoin wallet to deposit your mined MONA into Following the popular guide we published, many people asked for a Monacoin mining walk-through. We moved it to the front of the list for coin-mining guides but there are many more to come.

Step 1: Download and install ccminer ccminer for Nvidia CUDA was a project that began, stalled, and was then forked a few times. The specific version of ccminer we are recommending at this time is the tpruvot fork, version 2.2. Minimum Electra ECA Transaction. 2 or version 2.2.3. As the name specifies both Nvidia and CUDA in it’s full name, you’re correct in assuming that ccminer is only compatible with Nvidia graphics cards.

The directions below are for installing version 2.2.3. Mining Monacoin (MONA) with ccminer on Nvidia GPUs • Double-click the batch file we just edited in Step 3 (we named it Start_ETH-only_nanopool.bat) • A window will appear showing ccminer’s progress as it connects to Suprnova’s mining pool and starts mining.

In Windows it will look like the image above. • That’s it, you’re mining Monacoin from Suprnova with ccminer! • Now let’s check our progress on Suprnova. In a web browser.

• If you’re not logged in, do so by hovering over the Guest link and clicking the Login option. • Navigate to the Dashboard page where you can monitor your mining.

It’s unfortunate, but we’ve found Suprnova’s Dashboard pages to be a bit buggy. Sometimes they don’t update as you’d expect. We’ve measured the performance of mining at Suprnova, however, and their UI’s shortcomings aren’t reflected in mining performance. Having issues? There’s only a few things that can really go wrong. They include: • One or more values were incorrectly set in the.bat or.cmd file • Something is wrong with your mining rig • Suprnova is down (visit mona.suprnova.cc to verify their site is up and running) • If your miner looks like it is mining, but the Dashboard on Suprnova isn’t updating, it is almost certainly their dashboard, not an actual reflection of the mining progress.

Next steps • Learn more about ccminer – There are many additional settings you may be interested in. Review the README file that came with the ccminer to see the variety of algorithms and cryptocurrencies that it can mine, as well as other advanced configuration settings. • If you’re not already doing so, learn how to overclock your video cards to increase your mining hashrate.
