== 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(URL field) 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!
