Xenoncat's solver integrated into nheqminer

Mining
184

With linux or windows?

185

Yes. It supports AVX2

186

Only Linux.

Thanks for this wonderful software, I earlier reported that I saw no difference, now I see, I simply did not research my CPU’s well, it works great in fact. Thank You! Your address is marked :slight_smile:

I get the following make error on x86 Ubuntu 16.04.1 LTS:

well, I don’t either.

Yesterday, I installed the last nheqminer version and I got a nice improvement (about +50%) on my i7 3770 (AVX1 only).
Previously, I got 11.5 sol/s on 4 core and now I have got 17.5 sol/s (65 C° max).
I am on Debian Jessie btw.

If I were you I would retry from scratch.

PS:
I also find a way to gain a little bit of sols (like 0.5) by turning of the GUI and start the miner in a console.

I’m not seeing the AVX2 hashing benefits with this build as much as a friend of mine who has almost exactly the same CPU. He is getting significantly better rates than me with avx2:

His CPU:
Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E3-1245 V2 @ 3.40GHz
[15:52:37][0x00007f7300c5d740] Speed [300 sec]: 10.1467 H/s, 18.8667 Sol/s
Without the avx1 extensions code, he was getting:
[14:02:31][0x00007fcd949a9740] Speed [300 sec]: 6.02667 H/s, 11.2467 Sol/s

My CPU:
Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E3-1241 v3 @ 3.50GHz
[11:57:28][0x00007f1b311ea740] Speed [300 sec]: 7.21667 H/s, 13.3333 Sol/s
But without the avx2 extensions, I would get:
[12:16:45][0x00007fcf134fe740] Speed [300 sec]: 3.99 H/s, 7.49667 Sol/s

So there is a definite improvement, but I dont see why his CPU is doing so much more.

I have 16gb of ram, and the latest code from the git repo, so I can’t quite figure out why I’m not getting at least the rate he is getting!

Only difference with the CPUs is his has an integrated GPU, and mine does not, but mine is also a faster clock speed.

avg free is auto removing this miner to the vault, even with me ticking the box saying , ask me before removing to the vault… been working great for days till now, feckin avg.
anyone got any ideas?

192

its no virus.in the past miners are used by botnets.nowadays its still happening.its false alarm so,safely skip.

193

i know that, the problem is its auto removing without asking me.
even though i ticked the box, ask me before removing.
even gets removed when i add an exception for it.

194

Is your RAM slower? .

195

you my friend are are legend!
on an i7 6700 linux build i went from
16 sol/s to 25 sol/s!

196

And add this command desactivate auto AVX and go up to 32Sol/s :wink:

197

Where to add? Is that in the command line or in a file?

198

It’s a git command you do in the terminal before you build and everything. It’s gets the repository at that commit

199

Thank you will be back if i get stuck

200

cd nheqminer/nheqminer
cd build
and put “git checkout c07ad755ee92cac025a96ee9eed95dfd2ef97775”
after you start :wink:

201

sam@sam-OptiPlex-7040:~/nheqminer/nheqminer/build$ git checkout c07ad755ee92cac025a96ee9eed95dfd2ef97775
fatal: reference is not a tree: c07ad755ee92cac025a96ee9eed95dfd2ef97775

this is the error i get?

202

you mean after i start mining or before i put my user etc… in?

203

just before you put your user and pool address
