Updated Windows Binary of the ccMiner 1.5.32-git Fork by SP for Maxwell

28, Jan 2015

ccminer-1.5.32-git-spmod

Here is a new windows binary compiled from the latest code of the ccMiner 1.5.32-git SP-MOD fork of the Nvidia GPU miner optimized for Maxwell GPUs by SP (source). This version has the NIST5 algorithm fixed and working again (was broken in previous versions) as well as fixes and some performance improvements in various algorithms since the last binary we have compiled a few days ago. This version from SP is designed for running on Nvidia Maxwell GPUs such as the already available GTX 750, 750 Ti as well as the newer GTX 960, GTX 970 and GTX 980. The windows binary release we have made available here is compiled with support for Compute 5.0 and Compute 5.2 GPUs or with other words only for Maxwell-based cards with CUDA 6.5 and VS2013.

Miner Control 1.6.1 Pack for Nvidia GeForce GTX 750 Ti

23, Jan 2015

minercontrol-1-6-1-gtx-750-ti

We have not updated our Miner Control based package for GTX 750 Ti GPUs for a while, so we have decided it is time to update it with the latest development – version 1.6.1 with an up to date ccMiner fork 1.5.31-git windows binary from SP (compiled for Maxwell cards with Compute 5.0 and 5.2 only). The GTX 750 Ti package is configured to work withNiceHash and Yaamp pools, supporting the more profitable X11, X13, X14, X15, Keccack, Lyra2RE and Quark algorithms. We have temporary removed support for NIST5 as it appears to have some issues with the latest releases of ccMiner from SP. It seems that at the moment mining Quark is profitable on Nvidia GPUs as compared to other popular algorithms.

You can download the package below with settings already set for non-overclocked GTX 750 Ti, if you are going to be using it on multiple card mining rigs you need to multiply the hashrate for the algorithms supported. The package will also function just fine on GTX 960, GTX 970 and GTX 980 cards where you would need to set the power usage and hashrate numbers for your respective hardware to get the correct calculations working. To be ready to use it you just need to update the account settings for each pool to reflect your BTC payment address. Do note that the default configuration that we have left is set to mine from time to time for the author of the software (Miner Control) as a donation alternative, but you can change that setting should you wish to.

Updated Windows Binary of the ccMiner 1.5.31-git Fork by SP for Maxwell

18, Jan 2015

ccminer-1.5.31-git-spmod

Time for a new windows binary compiled from the latest code of the ccMiner 1.5.31-git SP-MOD fork of the Nvidia GPU miner optimized for Maxwell GPUs by SP (source). This version includes fixes as well as some performance improvements in various algorithms since the last binary we have compiled a few days ago. The latest version also gets ccMiner ready for the upcoming Nvidia GeForce GTX 960 GPU that is expected to be available very soon. Other than that this version from SP is designed for running on Nvidia Maxwell GPUs such as the already available GTX 750 and 750 Ti as well as the newer GTX 970 and 980. The windows binary release we have made available here is compiled with support for Compute 5.0 and Compute 5.2 GPUs or with other words only for Maxwell-based cards with CUDA 6.5 and VS2013.
