XMRIG

XMRig 5.3.0 – Added MSR mod for Windows. You no longer need to manually launch batch files, just start XMRig from the administrator, and he will make the MSR mod for both Intel and Ryzen. MSR mod gives an increase of 5 to 15% on Ryzen and up to 5% on Intel. Even my test Pentium G5400, on which prefetchers are already disabled in the BIOS, accelerated from 1286 to 1340 h / s (+ 4.2%). XMRig — High-performance cross-platform miner RandomX, CryptoNight and Argon2 CPU / GPU open source, with official support for Windows.

Changes v5.3.0:

Added native MSR support for Windows, by using signed WinRing0 driver (© 2007-2009 OpenLibSys.org).
Added new MSR documentation.
Increased stratum send buffer size.

Configure XMRig

Mining backends

CPU (x64/x86/ARM)
OpenCL for AMD GPUs.
CUDA for NVIDIA GPUs via external

The preferred way to configure the miner is the JSON configuration file, as it is more flexible and user-friendly. The command line interface does not cover all functions, such as mining profiles for various algorithms. Important parameters can be changed at runtime without rebooting the miner by editing the configuration file or making API calls.

An example of a batch file for processors:

:start
xmrig -a randomx -o pool.supportxmr.com:5555 -u 44tLjmXrQNrWJ5NBsEj2R77ZBEgDa3fEe9GLpSf2FRmhexPvfYDUAB7EXX1Hdb3aMQ9FLqdJ56yaAhiXoRsceGJCRS3Jxkn.5d3c802ee0f8e12e4eb9792722b7816a42178aa29ef7477c138ddb940c55648d.rig1 -p x --donate-level=1
goto start

Example batch file for AMD:

:start
xmrig -a randomx -o pool.supportxmr.com:5555 -u 44tLjmXrQNrWJ5NBsEj2R77ZBEgDa3fEe9GLpSf2FRmhexPvfYDUAB7EXX1Hdb3aMQ9FLqdJ56yaAhiXoRsceGJCRS3Jxkn.5d3c802ee0f8e12e4eb9792722b7816a42178aa29ef7477c138ddb940c55648d.rig1 -p x --donate-level=1 --opencl
goto start

An example of a batch file for Nvidia:

:start
xmrig -a randomx -o pool.supportxmr.com:5555 -u 44tLjmXrQNrWJ5NBsEj2R77ZBEgDa3fEe9GLpSf2FRmhexPvfYDUAB7EXX1Hdb3aMQ9FLqdJ56yaAhiXoRsceGJCRS3Jxkn.5d3c802ee0f8e12e4eb9792722b7816a42178aa29ef7477c138ddb940c55648d.rig1 -p x --donate-level=1 --cuda
