It Is All About BTC, LTC, ETH, DOGE, KAS mining as well as other alternative crypto currencies
The NiceHash Miner software is a GUI for CPU and GPU mining on NiceHash using cpuminer-multi, ccminer and sgminer as a backend for the actual mining process. The software itself has been available for a while, but initially it had CPU support only and then Nvidia GPU mining was added and now it also comes with AMD GPU mining support built in as well. In the current version all modern CPUs are supported, full range of NVIDIA GPUs from Compute capability 2.1 up to the most recent Maxwell with Compute 5.2 as well as support for all AMD GPUs with OpenCL support, including all 5xx, 6xx, 7xx and R9 series. The newly added sgminer for AMD GPU support also comes with highly optimized pre-built compute bin files for most common AMD GPUs based on Pitcairn, Tahiti and Hawaii chips for X11, X13, X15, Qubit and Quark algorithms – also known as wolf0 and kachur optimized bins in order for the software to get you the best performance. So if you want to mine the most profitable crypto currency on Nicehash and get paid directly in Bitcoin, you might want to check out the NiceHash Miner software. All you have to do the first time you run the software is to enter your Bitcoin wallet address, run the Benchmark mode to determine your hashrate and then you can start mining the most profitable algorithm at hte moment. Do note however that it is only available for Windows!

The first time I ran the program it detected my AMD cards just fine, however it froze at some point during benchmarking, and after that wouldn’t detect the AMD cards. It did this on three different machines. I just dropped the KBomba-Mod MinerControl program into their sgminer directory and kept on running that way. It would be nice to get it working though. The built-in benchmarking feature is really nice.

Yeah, same problem with their Miner as well. It is a bummer considering the benchmarking is the only way it will switch Algos Automatically. Thought they would have actually gotten this working already before saying it is working, or maybe the release got messed up with something by accident.
