I was given this message: CUDA support disabled when adding -U. I ran -X but appears to be only running my MBP's card. ethminer -G -list-devicesįORMAT: deviceNameĭo you know that there's a way to do it? I tried adding -U but that didn't work. Thanks you! I do want to use my GTX 970 eGPU (device 0)instead of my MBP's graphic card (device 1). Hello! This is the first tutorial I found that works for gpu mining on my Mac. So many problems with this setup, is any of this making sense? No error messages, the terminal just stops outputting. Side note issue: I have yet to get the miner to run successfully again, not even at the 1.5 MH/s rate. Maybe this issue has something to do with the automatic graphics switching these newer Macs use. The Ethereum DAG file is well over 1.6 GB, so the Intel must be using shared system memory or something to load the DAG. If it is indeed the Intel GPU running every time (only thing that explains 1.5 MH/s), HOW is it running. I tried messing with the "-opencl-platform" parameters and got the same crap results, and '1' it wont even run.

My dedicated Radeon Pro 560 has 4GB memory, and if it indeed was using that GPU, would be netting MUCH higher than the ~ 1.5 MH/s (I was getting the exact same numbers as you) - this GPU would be getting more like 20+ MH/s I would imagine. It appears to be using the onboard Intel GPU no matter what I put in. "Found suitable OpenCL device with 1610612736 bytes of GPU memory". It doesnt matter, if you watch the output it says Try putting 0 or 1 as the -opencl-device value. ethminer -G -S YOUR_MINING_POOL_ADDRESS -O YOUR_MINING_POOL_WALLET_ADDRESS -opencl-device 1 Watch your terminal output closely when running these commands.
From your description, you are running into the same issue as I and not realizing it. I am hoping you can help me track down a bug in this implementation. You can see available options with this command. It's mining approximately 1.5MH/s which is very poor performace to earn enough money 😥 For advanced using Here is the screenshot from running on my mac. You can refer example for addresses at here. Use '-U' instead of '-G' for NVIDIA ones. Replace YOUR_MINING_POOL_ADDRESS and YOUR_MINING_POOL_WALLET_ADDRESS with your real ones. Without this, it will run with my 'Intel HD Graphics' and maybe not mining properly. I've used '1' for '-opencl-device' option, because the index of my 'AMD 460' is '1' according to the result of previous command. The result from my laptop shows that I have two opencl devices.
#Setup macminer software#
Open Terminal app and go to the directory which the miner software downloaded. Choose the latest release binary for 'Darwin'.
