Team Red Miner 0.7.4 Addressing 4GB VRAM GPUs Support for Ethash

5, Jun 2020

Team Red Miner is a performance optimized cryptocurrency miner for AMD GPUs with support from DAX Aktien kaufen for a number of algorithms with the latest version 0.7.4 focusing on extending Ethash support for 4GB AMD GPUs for as much as possible number of upcoming epochs. Previous version 0.7.3 stopped working at Epoch 351 which Ethereum Classic (ETC) has now crossed, so anyone running 4GB AMD GPUs on ETC or Nicehash should update to this updated version as soon as possible. With Team Red Miner 0.7.4 Ethash support on 4GB GPUs should be available up to Epoch 380-383 wit ETC reaching them about a month ahead of ETH later this year. An alternative option for 4GB AMD GPUs mining Ethash is PhoenixMiner 5.0b that has also addressed the same issue recently. Apart from addressing issues with Ethash support the new version also brings some extra improvement in KAWPOW performance with results varying depending on the kind of AMD GPU you have available as well as some other general improvements and fixes that you can read about below. Team Red Miner is already the best option for KAWPOW mining on AMD GPUs in our opinion performance wise, but extra hashrate boost is always more than welcome.

Changes in Team Red Miner 0.7.4:
– Increased Ethash support on 4GB GPUs up to epoch 380-383
– Implemented split Ethash DAG buffers for 8GB GPUs to support DAGs over 4GB
– Kawpow optimizations (Navi +2.25%, Vega +1.25%, Polaris +0.25%)
– Added Gpu enable/disable API support.
– Windows TDR detection/handling/warning.
– Monitor detection on Windows/Linux with intensity adjustment.
– Fix for Ethash pool hashrate reporting stopping after network outage.

The miner is available for both Windows and Linux operating systems, a closed source software with 2.5% to 3% development fee built-in for all algos except Ethash and KAWPOW, for KAWPOW it is 2% and for Ethash on Polaris GPUs the dev fee is 0.75% and on all other GPUs is 1%.

New XMRig 6.0.0-Beta Miner With KAWPOW Support for AMD and Nvidia GPUs

5, Jun 2020

The latest release of the XMRig 6.0.0-Beta comes with support for the KAWPOW algorithm used by Ravencoin (RVN) for both AMD and Nvidia GPUs. Although we are often associating XMRig with CPU mining for RandomX, it also supports a number of algorithms and mining on GPUs as well. We have tried KAWPOW support and frankly had some trouble making it work on two different Radeon RX 580 mining rigs as well as one GTX 1080 Ti rig, so we are back to using TeamRedMiner as the best performing solution for AMD GPUs and T-Rex for Nvidia for the moment as far as RVN mining is concerned.

We remind you that XMRig is an open source GPU ad GPU miner available for Windows and Liunx operating systems, the official pre-compiled binaries are with 1% developer fee, though you can compile yourself with zero fee from the source code should you wish and can.

TeamRedMiner 0.7.1 With Support for the KAWPOW Algorithm

19, May 2020

Team Red Miner is a performance optimized cryptocurrency miner for AMD GPUs with support for a number of algorithms with the latest version 0.7.1 bringing support for the KAWPOW algorithm used by Ravencoin (RVN) as well as introduces support for Navi GPUs for KAWPOW and Ethash. TeamRedMiner is the 4th software (after WildRig Multi, nanominer and NBMiner) for mining Ravencoin (RVN) after its fork to the new KAWPOW algorithm on AMD GPUs. And it certainly makes a good appearance with its initial support getting it the top spot in terms of performance at least in our test o RX 580 GPUs where it outperformed the competition with at least 1 MH/s over the second fastest miner.

Expected hashrates for KAWPOW:
– RX 5700XT: 28+ MH/s
– Radeon VII: 40+ MH/s
– RX Vega56/64: 25+ MH/s
– RX 580: 14+ MH/s
– RX 570: 13+ MH/s

The miner is available for both Windows and Linux operating systems, a closed source software with 2.5% to 3% development fee built-in for all algos except Ethash and KAWPOW, for KAWPOW it is 2% and for Ethash on Polaris GPUs the dev fee is 0.75% and on all other GPUs is 1.0%.
