miner --algo etchash --server POOL_ADDRESS:POOL_PORT --user WALLET_ADDRESS.worker1

Optimization Tips

NVIDIA GPUs

  • Lock memory clock to maximum for best hashrate
  • Reduce core clock and power limit to improve efficiency
  • Use MSI Afterburner or nvidia-smi for overclocking

AMD GPUs

  • Enable Compute Mode in AMD drivers
  • Adjust memory timings for additional hashrate gains
  • Use MorePowerTool for voltage control on RDNA cards

Security Notice

Only download mining software from official sources linked above. Mining software may trigger antivirus warnings due to its nature - these are typically false positives but always verify checksums when available. Never download miners from unofficial sources as they may contain malware.
