The Latest SRBMiner 1.7.9 Cryptonight AMD GPU Miner is Ready for the March 9th Monero Hard Fork

25, Feb 2019

The latest update to the CryptoNight AMD GPU miner SRBMiner to version 1.7.9 brings support for the new POW algorithm that Monero (XMR) will be switching to in less than two weeks from now. Cryptonight variant 4 (CNv4) also know as CryptonightR will be the new mining algorithm after the upcoming Monero hard fork planned for block number 1788000 that is expected sometime on March 9th. SRBMiner 1.7.9 is the first AMD miner to support the new CryptonightR algorithm, though others will probably soon follow as the time for the fork approaches. Apart from the CryptonightR support the latest version brings support for a few other algorithms, some new features as well as bug fixes as one would expect. You can find the full changelow below. Do note that the developer fee is ~0.85% for both normal mode and algorithm switching mode as SRBMiner is a closed source miner available for AMD GPU miners only under Windows.

SRBMiner V1.7.9 Full Cangelog:
– Added new Monero algo ‘Cryptonight R’
– Added algo ‘Wownero’
– Added algo ‘Conceal’
– Added algo ‘Zelerius’
– Added algo ‘Xcash’
– Replaced ‘Mox’ algo with new ‘Mox V8’ algo
– Added parameter ‘maxnosharesent’ in cmd
– Added parameter ‘randomnonce’ in cmd
– Added parameter ‘enablecoinforking’ in cmd
– Added algo switching info in json and on html stats page
– Lot of bug fixes

JCE Cryptonote CPU+GPU Miner for AMD-based GPU Mining Rigs

29, Jan 2019

When we are talking about Cryptonote (Cryptonight) miners for AMD GPUs our preferred miner is SRBMiner due to the large range of supported variations and features, however there is a good competitor available and that one is called JCE Cryptonote CPU+GPU miner. The JCE miner is a closed source software available as a binary for Windows only (for the GPU) and with 0.9% developer fee for the GPUs (the separate CPU miner is with higher fees, Linux version is available for this one). In terms of performance the JCE miner is pretty much on par with the fastest alternatives like SRB, sometimes it might be a bit faster, sometimes a bit slower, depending on the algorithm and settings. For instance our latest experience shows a bit better performance for Tube mining using JCE compared to the latest SRB 1.7.7 on RX 580. The JCE miner does support a lot of the Cryptonothe (Cryptonight) variations out there, so you can use it to mine pretty much all popular variants. There is support for SSL as well as for NiceHash extranonce functionality

New SRBMiner 1.7.0 Cryptonight AMD GPU Miner With Improved Performance

14, Nov 2018

The latest update to the CryptoNight AMD GPU miner SRBMiner to version 1.7.0 brings improved hashrate in a number of the supported mining algorithms of up to about 10% depending on your GPU (most gains on VEGA) for the BitTube, Haven, Heavy and Italo algorithms as well as some small speed increase on CryptoNight V8 for VEGA GPUs. It also comes with support for a new mining algorithms – CN-Dark [CryoNote] and CN-Fest [Festival coin]. Do note that the developer fee is now ~0.85% for both normal mode and algorithm switching mode in the new version. There are also a number of other fixes and improvements, you can find the full changelog for the latest update below.

SRBMiner V1.7.0 Full Cangelog:
– Speed increase on BitTube/Haven/Heavy/Italo algos up to ~10% (depends of gpu)
– Small speed increase on V8 algo for Vegas
– Added new algo CN-Dark [CryoNote]
– Added new algo CN-Fest [Festival coin]
– Added startup monitor which monitors miner startup process
– Added new work mode for GPU hashrate watchdog [--gpuwatchdogdisablemode]
– Added yet another gpu tuning parameter ‘aes’
– Fixed a bug related to hash speed monitor and algo switching
– Small bug fixes
