Shold we simplify xmrig download procedure into a single zip (cpu+amd+nvidia), and host the file on https to avoid filesize limitations? #9

If we go to a single zip, we can eliminate a support step of asking if you need nVidia. No one is going to have a computer lockup because they downloaded a few extra MB of dll files. If we host the file on https://gntl.cash, we can keep an archive of previous versions, and BK would only need to update the download link in #tools-configs-scripts.

Not a good idea to make a 0 fee version public, as this is not fair for the devs. Its only available to our miners.

What if we didn't make a forward version, can keep it hidden and only link from discord?

That's an option. But... bundling nvidia in when someone is mining a CPU coin is pointless, hence the current separation. We need to see what the demand for this is.

The other issue is the latest version of Cuda does not work with all GPUs, as we have found.

As discussed, this is not an option.
