The latest SRBMiner-MULTI CPU and AMD GPU Miner version 0.4.5 adds support for the RandomX-based RandomEpic algorithm used by the Epic Cash (EPIC) crypto project for both solo and pool mining. There are also some performance improvements for the RandomX algorithm for CPUs as well as for Ethash and Ubqhash on AMD VEGA GPUs. You also get a number of fixes and new features, the full changelog is included below:
SRBMiner-MULTI CPU & AMD GPU Miner 0.4.5 changelog:
– Added ‘randomepic’ algorithm (EpicCash RandomX) solo/pool
– ‘ethash’ and ‘ubqhash’ algorithm faster ~1.5% on Vega
– ‘RandomX’ algorithm improvements
– Fixed allocation of ‘RandomX’ dataset for 1GB pages (--randomx-use-1gb-pagesparameter)
– Fixed an issue with MSR tweaks not being applied correctly
– Lowered ‘minotaur’ algorithm devfee to 2%
– Fixed crashing of ‘minotaur’ algorithm on AVX2 capable cpus
– ‘--send-stales‘ is now set per pool, it accepts true/false. Default is true.
– ‘send_stales’ parameter added to pools config file too
– ‘–gpu-intensity’ option can now be used in combination with auto gpu setup in cmd
– Improved gpu watchdog
– Added temporary parameter ‘--cnpool-bbc-fix‘ which disables workers if job diff >= 50
– Minor bug fixes
SRBMiner-MULTI Miner is a closed source miner available for Linux and Windows, supporting CPU mining algorithms as well as some AMD GPU ones, though we mostly use it for processor mining. The miner has a built-in developer fee of 2.50% for cryptonight_bbc, 2.00% for bl2bsha3 and minotaur, no fee for blake2b and yespowerurx and 0.85% for all others that are supported.

It has been a while since we last covered the cpuminer-opt software, but the good news is that its development hasn’t stopped and this should probably be your go to miner as far as CPU mineable crypto coins are concerned. Do note that cpuminer-opt is an open source mining software for processor mining that supports a lot of algorithms and that list is growing, though you will most likely be using just a couple of them nowadays. The miner has optimizations for older and newer AMD and Intel processors, so make sure you try the binary that is intended for your processor for best results or feel free to experiment.
The alternative that often comes handy as far as CPU mining is concerned is SRBMiner-MULTI that supports fewer CPU mining algorithms, but some of them could be more optimized compared to cpuminer-opt, and also has support for RandomX algorithms (mostly targeted at AMD Ryzen CPU miners). SRBMiner-MULTI however is also a closed source miner with a built-in developer fee, even if it is a verified and a trusted one, some people still prefer to use open source mining software only s far as crypto and not only is concerned.
Have in mind that cpuminer-opt is available as a pre-built and ready to be used binary only for Windows, it has its source code available for everyone, has no developer fees of any kind and is supported only with donations, so if you find it useful fee free to toss some coins to your friendly software developer JayDDee (joblo) on Bitcointalk to the following Bitcoin address: 12tdvfF7KmAsihBXQXynT6E6th2c2pByTT.

The latest SRBMiner-MULTI CPU and AMD GPU Miner version 0.4.4 adds support for Ethash and Ubqhash crypto algorithms and you might want to give the miner ago for these two particular algorithms if you ave a Navi-based AMD GPU (Radeon RX 5500/5600/5700 series) due to optimized kernel from Wolf9466. For other AMD GPUs mining Ethash and Ubqhash might not be the fastest, though you can still give a go on your mining hardware. We prefer to stick mostly to CPU mining with SRBMiner-MULTI as it is one of the fastest options for a number of algorithms and coins such as Micro Bitcoin’s Power2b algorithm. The new version also adds some useful options for the newly added algorithms and comes with some fixes and improvements in general, you can see the full changelog below.
SRBMiner-MULTI CPU & AMD GPU Miner 0.4.4 changelog:
– added ‘ethash’ algorithm
– added ‘ubqhash’ algorithm
– added parameter ‘--esm‘ to set ethash/ubqhash stratum mode for pool (0 – eth-proxy, 1 – miner-proxy)
– added parameter ‘esm’ to pools config (ethash/ubqhash stratum mode for pool (0 – eth-proxy, 1 – miner-proxy))
– added parameter ‘--enable-ethash-leak-fix‘ which tries to workaround AMD driver memory leak when recreating DAG.
– fixed algo switching and tweak_profiles miner freeze bug.
–--gpu-tweak-profileoption can now be used with auto gpu setup in cmd.
