New year and a new update in the form of a freshly compiled Windows binary from the latest ccminer 1.7.1-dev (source). The latest updates include some small bug fixes as well as the addition of the GPU mining support for the sib algorithm (X11 + Russian Streebog-512/GOST). The tpruvot fork of ccMiner is compatible with older Nvidia GPUs, so this is the version to go for if you have older video card that you want to try mining cryptocurrencies with. This Windows binary is compiled with VS2013 and CUDA 6.5 and supports Compute 2.1, 3.0, 5.0 and 5.2 GPUs, however have in mind that not all of the supported algorithms may work on older Compute 2.1/3.0 GPUs, but you can at least try with it.

We all know that the Flash Player is full of security issues and Adobe has been desperately trying to fix these in order to prevent the misuse of the popular software for installing backdoors, trojans and other unwanted software on user’s computers. The company has been releasing update after update for the Flash Player, so is is wise to always be up to date with the latest version in order to prevent the use of exploits that may install software on your computer unwillingly and without your knowledge. It seems that some of the security holes in the Flash Player might even lead to crypto currency mining software installed on your computer without your knowledge and consent in the form of a trojan that will be mining for somebody else. There is a report of a user that has found suspicious software in the Adobe Flash Player folder that appears to be a version of the ccMiner software for mining on Nvidia GPUs that was highly likely installed through a security hole int he flash player. So in order to avoid similar issues you should check your version of the Flash Player and update if it is not the latest one, the current up to date release is version 20.0.0.267.

Another update in the form of a Windows binary compiled from the latest Git source code of the ccMiner 1.5.77-git SP-MOD fork by SP optimized for the latest Maxwell-based video cards (source). The new release comes with a lot of optimizations in the performance of the Lyra2REv2 algorithm under CUDA 7.5, the last CUDA 6.5 compiled release was version 74. There is also some improvement in Neoscrypt hashrate, but it is still slower on the CUDA 7.5 releases, as well as some other minor improvements in other algorithms. 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 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.
