ethminer-genoil-1-0-7-final

The ethminer 0.9.41 Genoil fork 1.0.7 (source) is now out of beta and we have compiled a Windows binary (64-bit only) for the people using it to mine on their Nvidia GPUs or maybe AMD as well. Genoil’s fork of ethminer is targeted at Nvidia CUDA miners, but also works on AMD OpenCL for mining of Ethereum (ETH). The 1.0.7 has some minor bugfixes since the recent beta release and it comes with failover support for Stratum mode along with the already available in previous releases failover support for the standard mining mode. You are welcome to download and try the compiled binary of the latest 1.0.7 version and the Stratum failover. Check the included help.txt file and the example BAT file for more information on how to use the new Stratum failover mode, there are two versions included in the archive – one compiled with CUDA 6.5 and one with CUDA 7.5, both are 64-bit only.

ccminer-1-5-79-git-spmod

A quick update of the public ccMiner fork by SP of his Nvidia Maxwell optimized miner in the form of a Windows binary compiled from the latest Git source code of the ccMiner 1.5.79-git SP-MOD fork (source). The latest release comes with some small fixes and slight improvements in some algorithms. Have in mind that is a CUDA 7.5 compiled release, the latest CUDA 6.5 release of SP’s fork of ccMiner was version 74. Do note that the SP-MOD fork of ccMiner is designed for Nvidia Maxwell GPUs such as the already available GTX 750, 750 Ti as well as the newer GTX 960, GTX 970, GTX 980 and GTX 980 Ti and GTX Titan X. The Windows binary release we have made available here is 32-bit with support for Compute 5.0 and Compute 5.2 GPUs or with other words only for Maxwell-based Nvidia video cards compiled with CUDA 7.5 and VS2013.

genoil-ethminer-1-0-7

We have compiled a Windows binary (64-bit only) from the latest ethminer 0.9.41 Genoil fork 1.0.7 beta for Nvidia CUDA as well as AMD OpenCL mining of Ethereum (source). The latest code comes with the addition of failover support for Stratum mode along with the already available in previous release failover support for the standard mining mode. You are welcome to download and try the compiled binary of the latest git code for the new 1.0.7 beta and the Stratum failover and if you experience problems you should report them. Check the included help.txt file and the example BAT file for more information on how to use the new Stratum failover mode. We are also seeing a tiny bit of performance increase on Nvidia using the CUDA mode and apparently using the OpenCL on Nvidia should now also provide similar performance as CUDA (was slower before), there should not be no change in hashrate on AMD GPUs.
