The latest GMiner 2.43 Nvidia and AMD GPU miner continues improving on Ethash support including compatibility with pools as well as new kernels for Nvidia. The latest update adds two new kernels for Ethash, so that now the miner support 5 kernels for Nvidia GPUs in order to ensure optimal performance depending on your GPU. Gminer automatically selects the optimal kernel by default, but you can also select specific kernel by the --oc command line parameter. The latest version also brings improved handling of device freezing as well as improved auto-tuning.

GMiner 2.43 Nvidia and AMD GPU miner changelog:
– improved compatibility with Ethash pools (shardpool.io)
– improved handling of device freezing
– improved auto-tuning
– added two kernels for Ethash, miner support 5 kernels for Nvidia GPUs, miner automatically select optimal kernel, also you can select specific kernel by --oc parameter

The GMiner miner software was originally only an Nvidia GPU miner, although some algorithms are already supported on AMD GPUs as well. Do note that GMiner is a closed source miner for Nvidia and AMD GPUs with binaries available for both Windows and Linux, there is standard 2% developer fee built-in the software, though Ethash fee is 0.65% and KAWPOW fee is 1%, but there are some fees that go higher than 2% as well!

Here comes another update after the recent BMiner 16.1.0 release, the new Bminer 16.2.0 adds support for the new KAWPOW mining algorithm to be used by Ravencoin (RVN) after the fork later today as well as support for the ProgPoW algorithm used by crypto coins such as SERO. Preformance wise ProgPoW and KAWPOW hashrate does not seem to be much different than what all other miners with support for Ravencoin’s new algorithm currently offer. The new version also brings improvements to the performance when mining Aeternity and BFC, so worth updating if you are mining either of those as well.

Do not that although Bminer does support AMD and Nvidia GPUs, not all of the algorithms will work on AMD hardware, so it is mostly usable for Nvidia GPU owners. Have in mind that neither KAWPOW, no ProgPoW currently work on AMD GPUs, so yo can use this software for mining Ravencoin after the fork and SERO only on Nvidia. The same also goes for the Aeternity and BFC algorithms that got some performance boost in the latest release, they also work only on Nvidia GPUs. So far the only KAWPOW miner that supports AMD GPUs is NBMiner, so if you have Radeon GPUs and want to mine RVN after the fork it will be your only option for now.

We remind you that that Bminer is a closed source Nvidia GPU miner available for Linux and Windows in the form of pre-compiled binaries and that there is a standard 2% development fee for most algorithms supported such as Grin, Beam, Bytom (BTM), Equihash and Zhash coins, 0.65% for Ethash and 1.3% for dual mining Ethash and Blake.

The latest GMiner 2.07 Nvidia and AMD GPU miner continues improving the Cuckatoo32 performance with the latest update capable of delivering up to +20% performance boost depending on the GPU and OC mode used according to the developer. Definitely a nice improvement worth an updating if you are mining anything that uses the Cuckatoo32 algo, but also have in mind that the default developer fee for the Cuckatoo32 algorithm is set at 3% and is not the standard 2% as for most other algorithms supported by GMiner.

The GMiner miner software was originally only an Nvidia GPU miner, although some algorithms are already supported on AMD GPUs as well.
