Read moreUsing this auto-cpufreq tool on all the Intel Linux laptops we have, it seems to us to be a program worthy of note and of attention. It does what it promises and it is easy to make working as a service. It serves to adjust aspects of the CPU (Intel only for the moment… sigh!) dynamically, depending on the load,[…]
Read moreXMRig released the latest 5.0.0 version, a first stable unified 3 in 1 GPU+CPU release with OpenCL support builtin into the miner and it also not requires additional external dependencies on the compilation. Monero will change the PoW algorithm to RandomX on November 30, so now you’re ready to prepare your miners for the upcoming revolution. Miners and proxy should[…]
Read moreIn recent years, researchers have discovered a multitude of vulnerabilities in x86, POWER and even ARM processors. In most cases, these problems have been resolved, with the detriment of performance, through patches at the level of firmware or software that have mitigated or canceled possible damages. For example, Meltdown, a security vulnerability that affects a wide range of systems, including[…]
Read moreMonero (XMR) will be once more changing its PoW algorithm for mining in an effort to attract regular miners CPU/GPU miners and drive away FPGA/ASIC miners. Testing on the private RandomX testnet has concluded successfully and RandomX PoW mining will move to public testing on the XMR official testnet. This Proof of Work will introduce significant changes with respect to[…]
