Description

Introducing BFGMiner 5.5, a versatile cryptocurrency mining software developed in C. This innovative miner offers dynamic clocking, extensive monitoring, and remote interface functionalities. It is compatible with a wide array of device drivers specifically designed for Bitcoin (SHA256d). The software optimizes dynamic intensity to ensure that desktop interactions remain responsive under load while maximizing throughput during idle periods. It also supports mining with the free Mesa/LLVM OpenCL. Furthermore, BFGMiner automatically configures to switch to solo mining and local block submissions if Bitcoin Core is active. With minimal overhead, this free C code runs efficiently on both Linux and Windows, utilizing very little CPU resources. Its heavily threaded architecture efficiently manages work retrieval and submission through separate threads, ensuring that device performance is not compromised. Additionally, it provides comprehensive and detailed statistics on device performance, including requests, accepts, rejects, hardware errors, efficiency, and utility. With support for multiple mining pools and intelligent failover methods, BFGMiner also features an RPC interface for remote operation and is capable of handling slow routers effectively. Users can expect a robust and user-friendly experience while mining with this powerful tool.

Description

Excavator is a lightweight mining application created and officially endorsed by NiceHash, offering impressive hashrate capabilities without any fees, which sets it apart from other third-party mining solutions that typically impose a 1% development charge. It employs a unique mining protocol that minimizes complications with routers and firewalls while optimizing bandwidth usage and reducing latency. As an in-house developed miner, it can be relied upon due to the transparency of its creators. The software efficiently manages multiple DAG files within the GPU memory, enabling rapid transitions between them without incurring downtime. Additionally, it features overclocking options through an API, and one of its standout characteristics is its ability to revert to stock settings during DAG generation, ensuring higher stability for overclock settings. It is important to note that unstable DAG generation may lead to permanently rejected shares until a miner restart occurs. Excavator can be accessed as part of the NiceHash Miner package or downloaded separately as a standalone tool, catering to the needs of various users in the mining community. Furthermore, its ease of use and integration capabilities make it an attractive choice for both novice and experienced miners alike.
