Just to report, I gain 1 ~ 2 sol/s on my gtx 950 but it uses 1 cpu core? I lose 4+ sol/s on that 1 core. So no gains for me.
Not me. The devfee is way too easy to circumvent.
your using a router to change its direction to your own wallet?
or sniffing the packets and redirecting them?
can you share how you do this?
Nothing that complicated. There are several ways actually. I was toying with a script to dynamically change core and mem and decided to use that to essentially stop the cards from mining when devfee mining start was detected, then revert the core and mem back when devfee mining stop was detected. Hell it is in plain text in his log file lol.
You can also mess with deleting the log file every few minutes. His .exe mines the devfee well before the first hour has passed. It appears that is tied to the log file.
I’m sure Claymore will read this…encrypt your log files. I can still sniff it, but most people won’t bother.
This works on all his miners.
when i run the miner and try --list i get this error:
Cannot get openCL platforms
Nvidia drivers 370 and cuda 7.5 installed
i get my drivers like this:
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:graphics-drivers/ppa
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install nvidia-370 nvidia-settings
when i run instal nvidia-opencl-dev
it says its already installed
when i try to run it using GPU 0 1 2
i get:

Mining on 3 devices
then doesn’t do anything
should I reinstall linux? im on mint 18
lol thats funny, so you can just delete the log files and the miner cant tell when its time? i guess ill give that a try, thats pretty simple… those log files are annoying and do add up
ill spread that through the chinese pool groups
im going to take a nap, ill try the nvidia when i wake up again
switched all the amd cards back to eth anyway,… better just mine eth and buy Zcash IF i was going to …
btw, did you know you can download ethOS from torrents? its under GNU license so its not illegal 
yu can find it on thepiratebay.org… they accused me of wanting to torrent their OS… . yet its already on torrents! LOL
thats why those asses got so pissed when I mentioned china… funny thing is - those torrents are not hosted in china…
those guys are really ignorant… well ill download it for free and try it out and share with people that you can dl it for free and legally… should help some people avoid the 40$ rip off price tag for what IS free software… since not many people are going to use the webtracker anyway
Anyone mining with this and GTX 1070?
How many sols/s do you get with it?
Oh, as i can see, roadmap: v5 windows support is missing. So, that’s mean, there is no windows version of silentarmy miner?
Nope. Claymore wont release nvidia support soon
I don’t think anyone will support nvidia for mining to the point like AMD cards.
You can see those cheap AMD GPUs doing 50 sol/s and even more, while GTX 1070 can’t even get near that.
Nvidia is just bad for mining it seems.
Or too hard to code for CUDA cores.
I got it running under Windows finally:
A major drawback of the Windows version is that you can’t sucessfully run multiple instances, so I had to default those to 1. So to get better GPU saturation, a more advanced solver has to be written. Simply running two CPU threads within 1 single application is already much better (the -k zec zec option in my miner) but doesn’t seem to work has well as SA Linux, also not on every card.

any more info on this, e.g. publish windows binary’s and some raw estimates on mining rates?
for some reason i get a lot of duplicates. have to figure out why this is. the speed is comparable to my 0.6
Sorry i posted before checking the repo.
i installed python and have it running. I have the same issue with dupliicate shares but only at the first few minutes of mining , the problem seems to be gone after that, perhaps its a low diff issue?
CAn you tell me, please, how to connect to pool? -c not works
look at the batch file, it has a working example
i think the problem is that all your cards start with the same nonce, so they come up with the same solutions. if you use only a single card, the problem is gone. so that is fairly easy to fix.
it’s actually kind of weird why this isn’t an issue on Linux.
perhaps a python lib that has a little off behaviour?
My GTX970 does ~24.5 sol/s and a GTX1070 does about the same with this, where nheqminer would still do about 34 sol/s per GTX1070 and the zcminer-dev version about 52 sol/s (linux only though) so for now ill stick with what i got and keep hoping for a good Cuda miner
thx, working
1060 6g ~30 sol\s
on linux? or windows?
