Additional context Thanks for all the work you have been putting in gents. :)

cn/gpu should work in all cases, perhaps you are using xmrig-cuda vanilla from upstream? (must use xmrig-cuda MO-fork)
panthera/ghostrider/flex/argon2 simply don't have GPU support at all, normal and expected

might be worth writing ghostrider/flex/argon2 support but that is unclear

panthera is RandomX and none of those, even the supported ones, are worth it

Xn0xic commented 1 month ago

Confirming I'm using the xmrig-cuda MO-fork from here: https://github.com/MoneroOcean/xmrig-cuda/releases/download/v6.21.1-mo1/xmrig-cuda-v6.21.1-mo1-cuda11_4-win64.zip

Looking back at previous config & log files panthera/argon2/ghostrider all ran for a benchmark during initial setup, but never ran (or even attempted) after the initial run.

"worth it" is subjective, but I do concede that in terms of H/W it is horribly inefficient and usually not a profitable venture. There was a hot minute there in Oct-Dec 2023 where it was actually the most profitable to run rx/0 for ZEPH on GPUs. Right now, kawpow is where it's at, but my GPUs do flip to autolykos2 and CN algos frequently enough that I also using mm.exe to switch between XMRig for rx/ and cn/ and GPU specific miners for kawpow and autolykos2.

Yeah same, but I run a GTX1060 so RandomX is absolutely never worth it H/W wise. Kawpow is barely even actually worth it since I get ~5KH/s pay rate for 140W which is even worse than my crappy old Sandybridge CPUs.

Xn0xic commented 4 weeks ago

Ouch. 6700XT with kawpow caps at about 140W for 13ish kh/s equivalent to rx/0 right now. 5500XT is 58W for 6kh/s equivalent. Those are my two most efficient cards. nVidia 3000 series cards are 25% less efficient.
