nsfminer VS GMinerRelease

wget https://github.com/no-fee-ethereum-mining/nsfminer/releases/download/v1.3.14/nsfminer_1.3.14-ubuntu_20.04-cuda_11.3-opencl.tgz tar xzvf nsfminer_1.3.14-ubuntu_20.04-cuda_11.3-opencl.tgz cd nsfminer ./nsfminer -P stratum1+tcp://[email protected]:6688 --retry-max 0

I discovered ethminer that time and was happy to see great example of collaboration in crypto dev community, it was outdated for newest CUDA, so I found nsfminer, that's the fork updated by one of previous contributors. It has no DEV fee and based on original ethminer, so I pretty much trust the code, even if it has no maintenance since mid of 2021.

This one's better: https://github.com/no-fee-ethereum-mining/nsfminer

I've never used it, but NSFMiner is supposed to be a fork of Ethminer, except the author updated it to support 30 series. https://github.com/no-fee-ethereum-mining/nsfminer

Not really. There are protocols between miner software and pool operators. There are also some miner software out there that can evaluate prior to submission to the pool if a hash result is invalid or not. The open source ethminer used to do it until it's development stopped. Pretty sure some devs forked the code into NSFminer.

Here is link number 2 - Previous text "Two"

I've never looked for a free one so I don't know how good these are but I found two in 1min. One & Two

After running benchmarks on Phoenix, SRBMiner, TeamRedMiner, etc. & reading the 2miners.com blog comparing ETH miners for AMD and Nvidia and hours of google searching I decided to try No Stinking Fee Ethash Miner: https://github.com/no-fee-ethereum-mining/nsfminer

Nice! Glad to see more people releasing (or rather updating) open-source miners. I've been using nsfminer ever since I switched from T-Rex and it's been pretty nice. A 1% fee isn't a big deal for the 60 MH/s I get but it still feels good to know I'm contributing to a decentralized network using open source software. Maybe worth a look if you plan on continuing to update your fork :)

Cuda works, yes. I didn't build from source, I downloaded the release here: https://github.com/no-fee-ethereum-mining/nsfminer/releases/download/v1.3.5/nsfminer_1.3.5-ubuntu_20.04-opencl.tgz

Gminer --mt - added 05 Mar 2021

I use Gminer to mine ETH with GPUs. If you're in windows, just download the software from github, extract the files, and edit the mine_eth.bat file with a text editor.

minergate(www.minergate.com), gudo miner(cudominer.com), salad (salad.io) (you can use code TWP667 for a 2x earning rate), xmrig (xmrig.com), gminer (https://github.com/develsoftware/GMinerRelease/releases), ...

README.md also explains to go read gminer.md which tells how to obtain and setup both gminer versions although you should go to the gminer github and grab the latest version instead of the 2.42 mentioned in the gminer.md - but you also do need the 2.39 version as described, because cuckarood29v algo was removed as of v2.40 (but is still occasionally valuable and popular, despite gminer's opinion).
