The T-Rex Nvidia GPU miner has been updated to version 0.8.9 bringing a number of improvements in terms of performance as well as support for some new algorithms since the last time we covered the miner. The newly added algorithms in the recent updates include astralhash, jeonghash, padihash, pawelhash that are being used used by GlobalToken. The performance improvements are focuses on X22i and the X16 family of algorithms in general (x16r, bcd, x17, x22i etc.) as well as skunkhash. Do note 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 (the latest for CUDA 10 support) as the binaries for both Linux and Windows are compiled for CUDA 9.1/9.2/10.0.

The latest CryptoDredge Nvidia GPU miner version 0.14.0 comes with support for the new Lyra2REv3 algorithm as well as improved performance for X22i used by the SUQA project, faster Skunkhash and X16-based algorithms. The new Lyra2REv3 algorithm is going to be used by Vertcoin (VTC) as a means to avoid the use of the recently made available ASICs for the currently used Lyra2REv2 algorithm. VTC is currently running on testnet with the new algorithm with mainnet fork to Lyra2REv3 coming soon if everything is fine with the testnet release and there are not problems.

With the latest release you can expect to get up to 10-12% performance boost for the X22i algorithm, up to 2-4% for Skunkhash and up to 5-7% performance increase for the X16-based algorithms, so definitely worth upgrading for the extra performance. Do note that the CryptoDredge miner supports only Nvidia GPUs and is a closed source software that comes with 1% built-in developer fee and with binaries available for both Windows and Linux (CUDA 9.1/9.2/10.0).

More updates from the CryptoDredge Nvidia GPU miner to version 0.13.0 that comes with support for two new crypto algorithms – X21S and Lyra2vc0ban, as well as some performance improvements and some fixes. The X21S is used by a new project called Ritocoin (RITO) that recently launched, the recent T-Rex 0.8.3 update was the first to add support for this new algorithm and still seems to be slightly faster. Lyra2vc0ban is a new algorithm implemented by the c0ban project as a countermeasure to ASICs for Lyra2REv2.

CryptoDredge 0.13.0 comes with performance improvements for the X22i and Skunkhash algorithms, taking the top spot performance wise for X22i from T-Rex, so make sure you switch if mining SUQA at the moment and want to get the best possible performance. There is also a fix implemented for the Exosis and Dedal algorithm when started from BLAKE as well as a color hash order added for x16. Do note that the CryptoDredge miner supports only Nvidia GPUs and is a closed source software that comes with 1% built-in developer fee and with binaries available for both Windows and Linux (CUDA 9.1/9.2/10.0).
