Profitable? Someone counted?

Dual GTX 690s:  2400 c/s at 115W at 10% CPU.
650Ti:  330-340 c/s at 1% CPU.
Macbook Pro with GT 650M:  200 c/s.
Tesla K20c:  ~800c/s.
My Xeon give me 200 c/m. And you write c/s. This error? How gpu miner faster cpu?

Gaaaaah, thanks.  Typo.  c/m.  c/m c/m c/m.

I'm too used to thinking in kh/s from the other coins.

Hello,

I've been 'new' to mining since 2 days . Not really new, tried bitcoin about two years back and didn't see where it was going and I friggin can't remember where the wallet is :) . But now I 've been mining LT , which isn't going to well with everyone switching from BT to LT.. So after a long extensive search and reading almost everything there is , PC seems very promising, not only moneywise but also the ideology. Especially that it was only to be for the CPU so only for home users and people abusing servers.. And then I read this thread. So is this the beginning of the end of PC ?
 
To DGA congratulations, I am already happy when I can write a .cmd file that seems to work :) . BTW If you would happen to have a downloadable miner for AMD videocards, + install instructions , that would be much appreciated. If this is not the end of PC offcourse..

DGA,
   Around here we don't do "contracts" but operate on the basis of trust and informal/non-binding agreements.  My entire trust with the community and valuation of PTS, AGS, and future in the bitcoin space is on the line and I am very well known.   So that is more of a guarantee than any signed contract, it is in my best interest to do right by everyone I deal with.
 
   It is nice that it is based on ptsminer so does that mean it works with standard pools?

   Post the code and when I hear feedback from those on the forum that it works I will pay you 160 PTS. 

Dan
   

Just wanted to follow up publicly to thank you for the bounty and to note that you were good on your word, as promised.  I appreciate it.

What arch should be for Quadro 4000 ?

Check out:
https://developer.nvidia.com/cuda-gpus

Compute capability 2.0 -> arch sm_20

The pool is http://ptsweb.beeeeer.org/ ?

Yeah, sorry - I just used the one ptsminer supported, which I used because it built easily on my mac.  *grin*

If anyone wants to send me a patch to make it work on ypool or other pools, I'm happy to incorporate it.

with 30 works but it freeze, 20 is right parameter for me.

Quadro 5000 gives around 490.8 c/m

Nice work!  Now we need an OpenCL win64 miner  :)

I'm facing this error:

using SSE4
Segmentation fault (core dumped)


my GPU is Quadro 5000 and CPU is Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU           X5650  @ 2.67GHz

Cuda 5.5

On unix, change the makefile.unix.  Look for where it says sm_30 and change it to sm_20
(for the GPU architecture in the nvcc compilation line)

  -Dave

It works with 30 as well :), I just did not type 0 (device index) at the end of the start line. Thank you!

Good Work .
I would like to suggest you to build a gpu Miner and  take about  1% donation (like yvg1900) with every Worker . this would be good for you

We are waiting For Your Release  :)

I agree with you that that's the right way to go.  Unfortunately, I don't have the time to do it.

There's a *lot* of support and build-support that needs to be done for a working miner, and GPUs make it even more painful, as the threads here show.  yvv1900's yam miner is impressive not just because of its speed, but because he's made it easy to use and work well on a lot of platforms.  That takes a lot of attention to engineering -- quite probably more work to do that part than it is just to make a fast miner.  I think yvg deserves every 1% he gets out of his miner and that it's a great business model for supporting the development of the code.

I may ask the author of CudaMiner if he wants to do it together, though. :)
