| − | == Mining Uplexa with Nvidia GPU in WIndows ==
| |
| | | | |
| − | This is possible and it is really simple. Here is a short guide how to do it.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | === 1. Preparation ===
| |
| − | Make sure you have Nvidia GPU, it's fans are clean from dust and you have installed some of the recent drivers from Nvidia's website.
| |
| − | Then download the latest Nvidia UPX miner from it's official repository:
| |
| − | https://github.com/Bendr0id/xmrig-nvidia/releases
| |
| − |
| |
| − | === 2. Miner setup ===
| |
| − |
| |
| − | * Extract the contents of the downloaded archive into folder of your choice.
| |
| − | * Open the config.json file using Notepad.
| |
| − | * Fill in your UPX address (inside the brakets), where your coins should be sent after mining them.
| |
| − | * Enter the UPX pool's address of your choice and optionally: adjust the donation fee to author (default is 5%, minimum is 1%).
| |
| − | Here is an example of how the config file looks like:
| |
| − | -----------------
| |
| − | <sup>{
| |
| − | "algo": "cryptonight-extremelite",
| |
| − | "api": {
| |
| − | "port": 0,
| |
| − | "access-token": null,
| |
| − | "id": null,
| |
| − | "worker-id": null,
| |
| − | "ipv6": false,
| |
| − | "restricted": true
| |
| − | },
| |
| − | "background": false,
| |
| − | "colors": true,
| |
| − | "donate-level": '''5''',
| |
| − | "log-file": null,
| |
| − | "pools": [
| |
| − | {
| |
| − | "url": '''"donate2.graef.in:8188"''',
| |
| − | "user": '''"YOUR_WALLET"''',
| |
| − | "pass": "x",
| |
| − | "rig-id": null,
| |
| − | "nicehash": false,
| |
| − | "keepalive": true,
| |
| − | "variant": "upx2",
| |
| − | "enabled": true,
| |
| − | "tls": false,
| |
| − | "tls-fingerprint": null
| |
| − | }
| |
| − | ],
| |
| − | "print-time": 60,
| |
| − | "retries": 5,
| |
| − | "retry-pause": 5,
| |
| − | "user-agent": null,
| |
| − | "syslog": false,
| |
| − | "watch": true
| |
| − | }
| |
| − | </sup>
| |
| − | * Last step is to run '''Start.cmd''' file and mining starts.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | === 3. Overclocking ===
| |
| − |
| |
| − | To pull the max off your Nvidia GPU, please make sure to check online how to overclock your GPU.
| |
| − | UPX2 algorithm requires very little power. UPX2 requires mainly GPU core overclock.
| |
| − | You may skip overclocking it's memory. If you downvolt it or reduce the TDP you can lower it's power usage
| |
| − | and temperatures even further. Any Nvidia GPU can overclock safely it's core to +100MHz.
| |
| − | Good ones can go safely to +150MHz.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | Happy mining!
