Monero (XMR) NVIDIA miner

XMRig

XMRig is high performance Monero (XMR) NVIDIA miner, with the official full Windows support.

GPU mining part based on psychocrypt code used in xmr-stak-nvidia.

• This is the NVIDIA GPU mining version, there is also a CPU version and AMD GPU version.
• Roadmap for next releases.

⚠️ Suggested values for GPU auto configuration can be not optimal or not working, you may need tweak your threads options. Please fell free open an issue if auto configuration suggest wrong values.

Config file.

GPU configuration now possible only via config file. Sample config:

{
    "background": false,
    "colors": true,
    "donate-level": 5,
    "log-file": null,
    "print-time": 60,
    "retries": 5,
    "retry-pause": 5,
    "syslog": false,
    "threads": [
        {
            "index": 0,
            "threads": 42,
            "blocks": 18,
            "bfactor": 6,
            "bsleep": 25
        }
    ],
    "pools": [
        {
            "url": "pool.minemonero.pro:5555",
            "user": "",
            "pass": "x",
            "keepalive": true,
            "nicehash": false
        }
    ]
}

If threads option not specified the miner will try automatically create optimal configuration for your GPUs.
