It Is All About BTC, LTC, ETH, DOGE, KAS mining as well as other alternative crypto currencies
We have updated our NiceHash Control tool package with ccMiner for use with GeForce GTX 750 Ti to the latest NiceHash Control version 1.1.1 that adds up some new useful features (it is possible to be used on other Nvidia-based GPUs with at least Compute 3.0 capabilities). The idea for this tool is to sell your hashrate at the NiceHash service making the highest possible profit by switching to the most profitable mining algorithm all the time. Our ready to use package supports the X11, X13, X15 and NIST5 algorithms as we consider that these are currently the most profitable ones as well as the ones that will use less power and generate less heat. The update introduces support for backup pools for each algorithm, so that when NiceHash is down you will move to the TradeMyBit pool as a backup (you need a registration there and to setup the backup pool’s user and password to your own).
What you need to do in order to use our GeForce GTX 750 Ti mining pack is to edit the config file and set your BTC address, edit the backup pool settings in the MINERS.bat file and then just start the AUTOSTART.BAT file to fire up the software. What is left is to monitor your earnings on the NiceHash website, and you can check the log.txt file for information what algorithm was switched to and when. This version of the package does provide a simple, but nicely working way for backup pool as the ccMiner software still does not have official failover pool support built-in. If you like this tool and our GeForce GTX 750 Ti mining pack based around it, don’t forget to send a tip to the author of the NiceHash Control software.
NHC Version 1.1.1 has introduced new way of killing the miner window, however we have been getting occasional errors for access denied using the new version and when this problem appears the software stops switching the algorithms and the last mining session continues. If you do encounter similar problem on either the Nvidia or AMD packs you might want to replace the executable with the previous version 1.1.0. We might revert the NHC version in the packs to it if we are not able to figure out what is causing the issue.

Regarding the access denied error, try launching the program with “run as administrator”. If any more info is available, please post it on the NHC thread on bitcointalk so I can try and isolate what is happening.
Thanks….the author.

This is the error, anyone else getting the same problem?
************** Exception Text **************
System.ComponentModel.Win32Exception (0x80004005): Access is denied

It happens once or twice in a day, not every time the software tries to kill a process, so running as Administrator might not solve it.

What ccminer executable did you bundle with this? Just because Avast flags it as virus, while it says the x15 and x14 ccminer I downloaded from here earlier are ok.

The X15 fork of ccMiner is included with this, though this one is compiled with VS2010 for better compatibility and the earlier X15 release published here was initially compiled with VS2012 that has no XP support available.

Regarding access denied, that is odd. I haven’t seen it on my machine at all. NHC is launching the miner batch file as administrator on my machine, so I don’t know if that is fixing the problem or if it just hasn’t manifested for me yet. I’ll have to do some research on the kill technique I’m using to see if it turns up anything. Thanks.

I can confirm this is working on one GTX 750 Ti, Win7 64-bit, running as admin.
It gets around 2000 kH/s and stays at about 55-60C
Only crash I’ve ever had was the first day I used it, and that was the display driver crashing from + 100mhz gpu+mem overclock

Hi
Is it a good idea to start with one 750ti to begin mining with this tool ?
Do you have a quiet and efficient model to recommand ? (MSI ?)
Thanks

Hello Dof. I actually started digging with only one Gigabyte GV-N75TOC-2GI. OC of cpu is +200 and memory +500, and stable as a rock! I love this tool. Plug and play :)

Cool Blue ! Thank you ! Do you have an idea of profitability using nicehash & 750 ti ? (btc/day?)

OK, regarding the access denied error, it looks like this can occur if you try to kill a process which has already exited or is exiting. I wasn’t checking for those states when issuing the kill. I’ll add some protection in for this with the next release. Next release is going to have a major UI rework so it may be a few days. If you are having issues (most appear not to) then I would suggest going to the 1.1.0 release until the next release is out.

@Dof
Here’s my stats so far with NiceHash:
https://www.nicehash.com/index.jsp?p=miners&a=4&addr=1P8kXU6gPytGftXDvHWaW7u4zEKMNiDTfi
(Note: These stats are for my 1 GPU only)
I’m using one PNY Performance Edition GTX 750 Ti 2GB
Win 7 64-bit 4GB RAM, 550W PSU
In terms of overclocking, it doesn’t seem to like going over +95MHz for long periods. I’m at +75MHz right now, and could probably push it a little more, but at least its stable.
With that I’m getting 200-400 more kH/s
I think its pretty quiet and I have my case open. It’s definitely quieter than my GAW Miners Fury

@jdisco thank you for details. I think I’ll purchase a EVGA SC or MSI don’t kown. Is your pny quiet ?

HOLY crap thank you very much for this! Was compiling it my self but never got that performance :)

Sorry, but I didn’t calculated profit yet. My stats are here:
https://www.nicehash.com/index.jsp?p=miners&a=4&addr=12KZ6Kh6uw5By75w9Q4uzyZSKvefi66XD6
As You can see, i only started playing. As You can see, from yesterday I got 4 pcs 750ti. So to early for profit, bit anyway I am not here to profit – only play :)
Somebody is smoking, others are reading comics, some have pets, and I decided to mine :)

Hello, Your issue with multiple windows, and errors / crashing stems from the bat files… not the NiceHash Control utility.
The way I resolved the problem was to add the /K switch before the loops
REM ADD THE /K BEFORE THE LOOPS
/K
REM PUT THIS ON THE LAST LINE OF THE MINER.BAT FILE
pause > nul
Basically you are killing the window without user input. I have tested this and it works flawlessly with the previous version of NiceHash … I am currently trying to see if it works with the current version.
