New T-Rex 0.6.4 Nvidia GPU Miner For Windows and Linux

13, Sep 2018

New update to version 0.6.4 for the T-rex Nvidia GPU miner that brings support for a new algorithm – hmq1725, as well as significant improvements to already supported algorithms. With the new T-Rex 0.6.4 you can expect to get abut 5-15% performance increase in x16r/s, x17, sonoa, c11, bitcore and renesis, depending on the GPUs in your mining rig. So definitely worth updating to the latest version if you are using the miner to mine any of the supported crypto coins on your Nvidia-based mining rigs. Do note however that the T-Rex is a closed source miner with 1% development fee built-in. Also make sure you have a recent video driver installed as the binaries for both Linux and Windows are compiled for CUDA 9.1/9.2.

WildRig Multi 0.10.7 Beta, a New Multi-algorithm Miner

7, Sep 2018

WildRig multi is the successor of the WildRig miner that originally supported only the Wild Keccak algorithm on both AMD and Nvidia GPUs. The new WildRig Multi miner currently supports the relatively new Renesis algorithm as well as the hmq1725 algorithm only and apparently the sonoa algorithm is planned for an upcoming update. Do note that the WildRig Multi currently supports only newer AMD RX and Vega GPUs (the miner comes with pre-compiled binary kernels for Baffin, Ellesmere and gfx900 only) and will not work on older AMD or Nvidia GPUs. The WildRig Multi 0.10.7 Beta is currently only available for Windows as a closed source binary and with a 2% developer fee built-in.

ccMiner 2.0 RC2 by Tpruvot for Nvidia GPUs Now Available

12, Mar 2017

The development of some of the ccMiner forks for Nvidia GPU miners didn’t seem very active visually in the last couple of months, especially with coins such as ZCash (ZEC) that came with their own miner releases, but it hasn’t been stopped. A few days ago tpruvot has made a pre-release version of his new ccMiner 2.0 available (source) for people interested in checking it out with probably a few small things left to be ironed out before the final 2.0 release is made available. So if you are using Nvidia GPUs to mine crypto coins then you might want to give it a try and don’t forget to send a tip to your local friendly ccMiner developer for a beer or two to show your support.

ccMiner 2.0 RC2 changelog:
– Handle cryptonight, wildkeccak and cryptonight-lite
– Add a series of new algorithms: timetravel, bastion, hmq1725, sha256t
– Import lyra2z from djm34 work…
– Rework the common skein512 (used in most algos except skein ;)
– Upgrade whirlpool algo with alexis version (2x faster)
– Store the share diff of second nonce(s) in most algos
– Hardware monitoring thread to get more accurate power readings
– Small changes for the quiet mode & max-log-rate to reduce logs noise
– Blake2s fix, variant built with CUDA 6.5 (not usable for lbry)

Do note that this release may not contain the best optimizations and fastest performance on all of the supported algorithms, so depending on what you are currently mining you may need to stick to another faster fork of ccMiner or not. Also the CUDA 6.5 binary release does not work for LBRY mining as noted in the changelog, so either use the 8.0 release or compile with 7.5 for mining that coin.
