The latest Bminer 14.2.0 has just been released with experimental support for Cuckatoo31 (C31) algorithm being used by GRIN for Nvidia GeForce GTX 1080 Ti GPUs with claimed performance of up to about 0.90 G/s on GTX 1080 Ti with stock settings. This seems pretty good, however we are currently unable to make the miner work properly under Windows 10 as we are getting an error about insufficient memory available on device and it seems other people are reporting the same issue (it is experimental support). Do note that GRIN mining support on NiceHash is not yet available for Bminer and that goes for both Cuckaroo29 and Cuckatoo31 algorithms, so you can instead use the latest GMiner for NiceHash.
We remind you that that Bminer is a closed source Nvidia GPU miner available for Linux and Windows in the form of pre-compiled binaries and that there is a 2% development fee for Grin, Beam, Bytom (BTM), Equihash and Zhash coins, 0.65% for Ethash and 1.3% for dual mining Ethash and Blake.

The latest GMiner version 1.31 brings an important update for everyone interested in Grin mining, namely support for Grin’s Cuckatoo31 algorithm to Windows miners as previously the C31 algo was only available with the official Grin miner for Linux and Mac OS X. Do note that Cuckatoo31 support (Grin31)requires 7.4 GB VRam, will work on 8GB cards under Linux and Windows 7, but will not work under Windows 10. Video cards such as GTX 1080 Ti do work under Windows 10 and should be able to provide about 0.6-0.7 G/s hashrate for C31. The latest update should now work fine with both C29 and C31 for Grin in NiceHash as well as there were some issues with the last few versions and NiceHash in the last days due to changes happening with the Grin support.
The GMiner Nvidia CUDA miner requires an Nvidia GPU with CUDA compute capability 5.0 or later as well as CUDA 9.0 driver support. Do note that GMiner is a closed source miner for Nvidia GPUs with binaries available for both Windows and Linux, also there is a 2% developer fee built-in the software.

GMiner has been updated a lot recently with fixes and improvements and the latest version 1.26 is not an exception as it apparently tires to fix the BEAM mining support on NiceHash that has recently been introduced. Initially when NiceHash announced support for BEAM on their platform both GMiner and Bminer seemed to work just fine, however earlier today both miners started having issues with the platform. The problem seems to affect both miners for BEAM only on NiceHash, it does seem to work fine with other mining pools, but on NiceHash you are getting a lot of rejected shares with Bminer and pretty much all rejected n GMiner.
The just released Gminer v1.26 apparently tries to fix that and seems to succeed to some point, however after a while with everything seeming normal we are seeing the latest GMiner getting into a kind of look restarting itself without continuing to mine after that. The time it takes for the restarting loop does seem to vary from a mining rig to a mining rig, we have tried with a couple of them and in less than an hour all of them ended in the same watchdog reboot look for the miner. Running GMiner 1.26 on another pool for BEAM mining seems to be working just fine like with older versions, so the issue is apparently related only to NiceHash support. Of course you are welcome to try out the new miner and report if it works or not for NiceHash BEAM mining.

Update: GMiner v1.26 has been temporary removed until properly fixed, so it is no longer available for download! GMiner 1.27 is now available with a properly fixed NiceHash support.
