GMiner v2.42
The first version of GMiner was released on September 21, 2018 and was received quite warmly among users.
Thanks to its unique developments and stability, in just six months, the miner became a favorite on the Equihash algorithms.
The miner is focused on NVIDIA and AMD platforms and supports most popular algorithms such as: Ethash, ProgPoW, KAWPOW, Equihash, CuckooCycle.
GMiner maintains a leading position in the mining of such coins as Beam, Grin, Cortex, Bitcoin Gold.
In 2020, the miner added support for Ethash, ProgPoW and KAWPOW algorithms with high performance relative to competitors.
The development team never stops at what has been achieved and achieves the maximum performance of the algorithms with the minimum power consumption, it is these qualities that distinguish GMiner from the competitors and win the hearts of users.
Miner Features:
+ commission is charged continuously, and not in intervals (as in most miners), which has a positive effect on the user's profitability on PPLNS pools
+ verifying generated DAG, warning when GPU overclocking is very high for Ethash, Etcash, KAWPOW and ProgPoW algorithms, helps to overclock GPU without errors
+ verifying Shares on processor, warning when GPU overclocking is very high for Ethash, Etcash, KAWPOW and ProgPoW algorithms, helps to overclock GPU without errors
+ DAG caching if the GPU has enough memory, DAG files are not recomputed when switching to another algorithm when mining Ethash + Zilliqa or Nicehash, which has a positive effect on user profitability
+ temperature control and stop the GPU in case of overheating
+ watchdog - process-observer of state of main systems of the miner, which will restart the miner in case of crash or freeze
+ mechanism to restore lost connection with pool
+ supporting failover pools, the miner uses failover pools until the connection with the main pool is restored
+ support secure connections, server certificate check (optional)
+ informative and readable tabular statistics output to console
+ display of detailed information on each device (temperature, power consumption, cooler load, memory frequency, processor frequency, energy efficiency)
+ parallel output of information to console and to file on disk
+ built-in statistics server - remote monitoring of the miner in browser

Fast start:
To start Ethash, enter at the command line:
Code:
miner --algo ethash --server eth.2miners.com:2020 --user 0x5218597d48333d4a70cce91e810007b37e2937b5.worker1
--algo - mining algorithm, in this case ethash
--server - pool address and port, in this case the pool is eth.2miners.com, port is 2020
--user - Ethash wallet and worker name, in this case wallet is 0x5218597d48333d4a70cce91e810007b37e2937b5, worker is worker1

+ display valid/stale/invalid shares for Ethash/Etchash and KAWPOW algorithms when solution check on CPU enabled ("stale_shares", "invalid_shares" in API response)
+ display warning when AMD compute mode is disabled
v2.40
+ significant performance improvements for KAWPOW, especially on rigs with large number of GPUs
+ improved compatibility with Ravencoin pools (miningpoolhub.com)
+ added option to control DAG buffering mode (single or dual, --dag_mode)
+ added option to support "Zombie Mode" for Ethash, Etchash and KAWPOW algortihms (--dag_limit)
+ improved detection of freezing AMD GPUs under linux
+ fixed display of core and memory clocks under linux
+ display GPU PCI index on miner startup
+ removed unpopular algorithms: sero, vprogpow, progpowz, cuckarood29, cuckarood29v
v2.39
+ added kernel auto-tuning for KAWPOW algorithm, this feature improves hashrate (up to 4% on some cards)
+ fixed AMD cards detection under linux, now miner detects Vega and Navi cards under HiveOS and RaveOS
v2.38
+ fixed performance degradation on Ethash under Windows 7 and Windows 8.1
miner launch specific kernels on specific devices, you can forcely enable this kernels on GPU use --oc1 flag (also you can use --oc flag to enable option per GPU)
