Latest 0.2.3 eXtremal miner says nvidia support but still crashes w/silent army binary on win 10 gtx 10xx. eXtremal’s standard gpu miner binary runs fine, but slower than nheqminer 0.3a
Mrb. is there a thread where we can follow your nvidia miner progress?
Hi and thx for your work!
I have one question GCN 1 = old cards (hd 5850,6850…)?
@Your2 I post my progress at No Nvidia support: errors out with clEnqueueReadBuffer (-5) with both CUDA 7.5 libs and system libs · Issue #6 · mbevand/silentarmy · GitHub
@comecome List of AMD graphics processing units - Wikipedia documents which cards are which generation (architecture). GCN 1 is mostly high-end HD 7xxx/8xxx as well as entry-level/mid-range Rx 2xx/3xx/4xx series.
If you need gtx 10xx testers win 10, I’m happy to help.
No those cards are TeraScale and they will not work. There is not a GPU miner around that will support them. I have 2 HD 6970s Which I believe are the last gen Terascale cards before they introduced the GCN type. I really really hope soon someone will add support for our cards lol. I don’t know what goes into adding support, but it would be awesome.
Does anyone compare cpu speed affecting sols?
I made a major update and released SILENTARMY v3: it’s now a full Zcash miner with multi-GPU and Stratum support, for Linux: GitHub - mbevand/silentarmy: Zcash miner optimized for AMD & Nvidia GPUs – see top post for more info
great job.when released for windows ???
Lovely Job Mrb…
What’s the Github command for this?
git (etc etc)
git clone GitHub - mbevand/silentarmy: Zcash miner optimized for AMD & Nvidia GPUs
Pretty easy 
Thank you.
(20 hearts etc etc)
Sorry, how do you build and cmake again?
seem to be doing something wrong here…
streetlight@streetlight6:~/silentarmy$ make
echo ‘const char *ocl_code = R"mrb(’ >_kernel.h
cpp input.cl >>_kernel.h
echo ‘)mrb";’ >>_kernel.h
gcc -std=gnu99 -pedantic -Wextra -Wall -ggdb -Wno-deprecated-declarations -Wno-overlength-strings -I"/opt/AMDAPPSDK-3.0/include" -c -o main.o main.c

streetlight@streetlight6:~/silentarmy$
Follow the detailed steps in “Dependencies” and “Compilation and installation” in silentarmy/README.md at master · mbevand/silentarmy · GitHub
You need libsodium-dev:
$ sudo apt-get install build-essential libsodium-dev
Thanks. found it.

Nice work again. I opened an issue on github. Selecting more than one device will throw a task exception.

For this error make sure you get this commit: do not attempt to show stats if there are no stats to show · mbevand/silentarmy@87bcaf2 · GitHub
So “git pull”
Ok for these KeyErrors, try “git pull” to get this second fix: temporary fix for more 'missing stats' issues · mbevand/silentarmy@c685157 · GitHub
Ugly fix, love it, good work again
