CPU/GPU mining, big difference?
-
@newsense2004 I just measured the last round on one of my systems that runs both Blago and jMiner simultaneously in case one hangs up.
System: 2 * Opteron 4180 (12 Cores total) R7 370 GPU, 11 Drives, 38,796 GB
CPU Mining - 50 Secs.
GPU Mining - 22 Secs.
-
@haitch Ok well that answers my question. thank you for posting those results. Now to get JMiner to work, doesn't work for me for some reason.

@newsense2004 make sure you have 64 bit java and the PlatformID and DeviceID match your GPU.
-
@haitch Thanks, no idea why I had a 32bit version of Java installed. I'm sure that's the problem. Thanks.

@haitch why does it ask if u want to use ur second openGL device to mine, would it be for gamers?
edit: because i can use one gpu for gaming one gpu for mining. :P

My response was based on my setup. 25 drives on one USB 3.0 input on a $350 laptop with an integrated GPU. 5% difference in CPU vs GPU time. Your mileage may vary.

@HiDevin Where do see that message? I don't get it on my system.
-
@haitch That's what I get in the AIO wallet too when choosing opencl

@newsense2004 ok, I don't use the AIO - these are dedicated miners, and have been mining since before the AIO existed.
-
@haitch is this the PlatformID and DeviceID, PCI bus 1, device 0 ?

@haitch I plan on switching to dedicated miners soon but for now wanted to see if I could get better results with the AIO and GPU.
-
@newsense2004 Platform/DeviceID can vary by system. Get the GPUPlotGenerator, run it with "gpuplotgenerator setup", then get it to list the devices.
-
@haitch Thanks, will do. Needed it anyways to plot a new drive.

@newsense2004 I've got a couple of miners that were plotted with GPU, but the restartability and reliability of xplotter makes it my preferred plotter if your system supports it.
-
Anyone know if the GPUPlotGenerator optimizes also?

@newsense2004 In direct mode it creates optimized, in buffered mode it doesn't. But see above.
-
@haitch Thanks, don't see why my system wouldn't support it. It's a decent system.
-
@newsense2004 What GPU do you plan to use for plotting?
If you have an nvidia card, you may also need to install the openCL libraries:
http://developer.amd.com/tools-and-sdks/opencl-zone/amd-accelerated-parallel-processing-app-sdk/jminer may (probably) needs the same libraries.
-
@sevencardz he's going to plot with his i7 with xplotter for now and mine with his GPU :P
-
I currently have 15 seperate plots on 2 seperate drives totaling 9,477GB. I'm using the CPU miner but have been thinking about switching to GPU.
