    Reducing power with a 2600X?

    Posted: 23 Jun 2019 07:41 AM PDT

    I have a gaming PC with a 2600X that I also mine on. Any tips for cutting CPU power such as disabling cores, unclocking, etc.?

    COSMiC v4.1.3 - the GUI-based, High-Performance Ethereum Token Miner [ ERC-918/0xBTC | nVidia/CUDA | Win64 ]

    Posted: 22 Jun 2019 01:20 PM PDT

    Hello everyone! I'm happy to share what I've been working on with you today. This is an update to the COSMiC V4 token miner (for nVidia/CUDA devices and Windows 7 or newer, 64-bit). This version makes substantial improvements to nearly every area of the miner (detailed below.)

    Requires: 1 or more nVidia (CUDA) GPU, any 64-bit CPU (>2 threads recommended), any 64-bit Windows version (Windows 7 should work, but developed for Windows 8.1 and up.) Remember to install the latest nVidia graphics drivers

    Supports Mining: 0xBitcoin, KiwiToken, S.E.D.O., (standalone or merge-mined with 0xBTC), CatEther(0xCATE), Bitcoin Classic Token (on the Ethereum Classic network), LiraPay, CryptoPepes (mining 'rat-race' now over), and many other ERC-918 token varieties!

    Important Note: Now built against CUDA v10.1+Update1, so it is strongly recommended that you update your nVidia graphics drivers. (It is NOT necessary to install the CUDA toolkit)

    FEATURES:

    • Written in C/C++-CLI and CUDA C/PTX assembly, Inspired by 0xBitcoin-Miner/GpuMiner

    • Mining on multiple nVidia CUDA devices/cards in one instance, auto-detected

    • High-Performance Keccak hashing kernel (nicknamed: "Hashburner")

    • Mines with CUDA Devices and sends results to TokenPools (Solo Mining coming Next Update!)

    • Fully-integrated Graphical User Interface for Windows 64-bit (Intended to make Token Mining easier for newcomers)

    • All settings can be configured in the GUI (no manual config editing or batch files required!)

    • Integrated Hardware Temp/Fan/Power Monitoring and Safety Features

    • Faster, more efficient and lower CPU/RAM use than COSMiC V3.4 and the classic 0xBitcoin-miner

    • Aims for very few stale Shares at the Pool level and verifies GPU-found solutions on the CPU

    • Improved Network code for stability, fault-tolerance, potential power savings

    • Multi-Threaded for optimal performance on CPUs with numerous cores/threads

    • Small Application Size, Minimal Memory Footprint

    CHANGES THIS VERSION:

    • Streamlined "end" of keccak function, with less load/store operations: don't store state elements that will not be accessed again (observed significant performance uplift)

    • "Hashburner" profiled/refactored/tweaked for improved performance on Turing (probably also Volta)-based GPUs (and previous). Observed significant performance uplift on tested GTX1660 graphics card vs. v4.1.2. Initial optimizations only, expect further hashrate gains in subsequent updates.

    • Rebuilt/linked against newest LibCurl release (v7.65.1)

    • Overzealous "RPM Pause" bug fixed, along with some UI inconsistencies

    • Minimize to System Tray/Notification Area icon (with summary tooltip)

    • More robust GPU context (Right-click) menu with config separated into categories, including GPU Summary/Statistics, Set Intensity and CUDA engine selection

    • UI update speed now selectable in Options menu

    • Added "Compatibility" CUDA engine. More conservative Keccak hashing function, intended for use on older (Kepler-and-newer) GPU architectures or certain mobile chips

    • Streamlined 'outer' mining kernel and launch code: performance uplift and consistency improvement observed

    • NET annunciator now indicates OK/any network error, last request latency and is colorized to indicate network/pool-related errors

    • SQ annunciator added (shows # of queued-to-send solutions on Mouseover if there is a network delay). (see *2 in docs/WHATSNEW for more info).

    • Interruption Prevention: Can attempt to keep Windows from shutting off display or suspending (User-configurable, off by default). Attempts to prevent automatic restarts by other programs/Windows.

    • Various UX (user experience) improvements- let me know your thoughts :)

    • Optimizations for reduced CPU use (observed avg 0.1-0.6% total utilization on Ryzen 5 1600 @ 3.8 GHz). Note: COSMiC is highly multi-threaded for improved performance on modern multi-core and SMT-supporting processors.

    • Modified hashing helper functions to reduce register pressure and increase device occupancy, minimize number of instructions wherever possible. New permutation helper functions added

    Anyone have red devil RX 580 8gb Bios mod?

    Posted: 22 Jun 2019 04:54 PM PDT

    Anorak.tech site has been inaccessible for a few months now and I havent had much luck finding the bios mods elsewhere around the web.

    Anyone know where I can find the bios mod for Hynix?

    Thanks!
