ccminer-1-8-dev-tpruvot-x11evo

Here comes another interesting update of the ccMiner fork by tpruvot with a new Windows binary we have compiled from the latest ccMiner 1.8-dev (source) that comes with support for the new X11 Evo algorithm. The Windows binary is built from the Linux branch and is a 32-bit one compiled with CUDA 6.5 and with support for Compute 2.0 or newer Nvidia GPUs. Our quick test has shown pretty good performance from the ccMiner with X11 Evo support as compared to the sgminer fork for the X11 Evo algorithm supplied by the Revolvercoin (XRE) team, so Nvidia miners will have a serious advantage at the moment. While you can get about 2-3 MHS on a 280X 290X using the sgminer fork, with this release of ccMiner you can expect to see over 7 MHS on GTX 970 or over 10 MHS on a GTX 980 Ti, so significantly faster hashrate on Nvidia GPUs for the moment. So Nvidia miners might be interested in checking out the new Revolvercoin (XRE) altcoin as it is currently the only one that uses the X11 Evo algorithm and if you have some issue with X11evo support please report it…

sgminer-5-1-1-x11evo

There is now an sgminer fork for GPU mining Revolvercoin (XRE) that uses a new X11 Evo algorithm (source) for AMD GPUs. The new X11 Evo algorithm comes as a solution to the already available ASIC miners for the standard X11 algorithm, meaning that X11 Evo is only CPU and GPU mineable for the moment, though CPU mining with a GPU miner available is not very reasonable. The first altcoin to use the new X11 Evo algorithm is Revolvercoin (XRE). The hashrate you can expect to get from the X11 Evo algorithm is a few times lower than what the same AMD GPU could be capable of providing with the regular X11 algorithm, so something like 2-3 MHS is to be expected at the moment depending on your GPU.
