Edit: Turbokrist has been released!I've been working on a GPU accelerated miner for Krist, and it's coming along quite well…
These speeds are from running it on an EVGA GTX 760 with little optimization.

Not sharing it at all yet. Still under heavy development.

It works very well with SLI too :)/>! Though this is quite expensive to run… a single GPU takes up around 85% TDP. For the GTX 760 Ti this is 144.5W, double that amount to 289W since there's two GPUs. It'd cost me 1.12€/month to run for 1 hour every day (assuming electricity costs 13ct/kWh).

It doesn't actually care about SLI at all - it will use each device individually. If you had two graphics cards installed, but no SLI, it would still work fine. In fact, having it use SLI instead of each device individually would probably decrease performance, if anything.

I could test it on a 970 for ya if you wanted.

Once I finish ironing out bugs.

That will be once I'm satisfied with how it runs and it no longer crashes the GPU driver.

Not too well, but I'd say it would work at least as well, if not better, than a CPU-based miner. I've reached 3 MH/s on the integrated graphics of an Intel Atom in my laptop :P/>

Approximately 0 hashes per second I would guess… :(/>

How did it break? Overheating?
Is there no way to repair it? (As to reach 1 hash/s)

It stopped working last summer, not doing anything intensive, 10 minutes after bootup, this happens
https://dl.dropboxus...828/ripgpu.jpegIt's an ATI Radeon HD 6990M 2GB on an old Alienware m17xR3 (yes I know)
I still have the GPU laying around in case somebody can prove to me there's no way to recover it :P/>

You have got nothing to lose by following a hoax!

Baking a GPU is a well-known last ditch attempt. If you do it properly, it can reflow the solder just enough to restore connections that may have been broken with time.

I'll back that. A cracked solder join is fixed by simply heating it to the point where it'll reflow (and yes, Anavrins, you've got the symptoms of such a crack). An oven is commonly used for this by folks who don't have a heatgun.

As in Dual Mining?
Lookie Here:
https://github.com/apemanzilla/MultiMinerI would assume once ape is done working with his java miner he will surely come back to this project and make it work.

If this actually works, you guys are lifesavers, I did not know of that method until now :P/>
I understand it's a pretty ghetto method and might not work as intended, but at this point it's my best bet, knowing they don't do these for my laptop anymore.

GPUs reach speeds in excess of 1 GH/s (1000 MH/s). CPUs reach speeds of under 50 MH/s, and that's being generous. It wouldn't help very much and would just cost you extra in power - I'll be sticking with GPU for now.

Once I'm done with the JavaCL miner I may work on the GPU portion of that project again.

Keep in mind that this does void your warranty, so only do this if there's nothing else to do.

Just gonna point out that this isn't actually the FIRST one… there has been at least 1 GPU miner before this one.

I doubt that. When I first created this GPU miner, I was getting 5+ blocks per minute and literally killing the Krist database by submitting so many blocks. I have heard dozens of people say they have/are making GPU miners but I have never seen any evidence of one except for this one.
And either way, this will be the first public one once I release it.

There has definitely never been a working implementation until now. Difficulty is at an all-time high, and ape is the only one mining.

Thanks, could you PM me when you do release it? I don't want to miss it. My desktop is %17.5 more powerful than a Titan X so I would just like to test it… Overclocking all the way!

There will be a forum post when it's released.
Also, AMD is far superior to Nvidia for Krist mining. I'm hitting 1.3 GH/s on an R9 390.

I would have R9 390 Crossfire but I don't because my PSU is an 850w, I want like 350w of headroom for overclocking and upgrades.
