How to mine Ethereum with console miner?

If you don't find a suitable miner for your OS, please check for other Ethereum binary releases here.

Windows (win 64)

1. Download the latest Ethminer: https://build.ethereum.org/cpp-binaries-data/release-1.2.2/Ethereum.exe
2. Open cmd.exe

   By default, you will see the following:

   C:\Users\username

3. Enter the Ethereum folder. If you did not specify an alternative directory for Ethereum while installing Ethminer, just enter the following:

   C:\Users\username > cd C:\Program Files\Ethereum

4. Once you are in the Ethereum directory, run Ethminer.exe with the following commands:
   
   

   For OpenCL mining:

   ethminer -G -P stratum+tcp://eth.pool.minergate.com:45791/ingesolberg5@gmail.com
   
   

   For CUDA mining:

   ethminer -U -P stratum+tcp://eth.pool.minergate.com:45791/ingesolberg5@gmail.com
   
   

   The DAG file will be generated. It will probably take a few minutes. 
   You will start mining, once the DAG file is generated.
   To stop mining, enter

   Ctrl + C

To join MinerGate with Ethminer earlier than Ethminer v.15, please use the following command:
ethminer -G -S POOL_ADDRESS -u YOUR_EMAIL

Windows (win 64)'

1. Download Genoil v. 0.9.41 fork 1.1.6 here or get the latest version here

2. Configure the start.bat file following the example below.
   
   

   For OpenCL:
   
   setx GPU_FORCE_64BIT_PTR 0
setx GPU_MAX_HEAP_SIZE 100
setx GPU_USE_SYNC_OBJECTS 1
setx GPU_MAX_ALLOC_PERCENT 100
setx GPU_SINGLE_ALLOC_PERCENT 100

ethminer -G -S eth.pool.minergate.com:45791 -u YOUR_EMAIL

   For CUDA:
   
   setx GPU_FORCE_64BIT_PTR 0
setx GPU_MAX_HEAP_SIZE 100
setx GPU_USE_SYNC_OBJECTS 1
setx GPU_MAX_ALLOC_PERCENT 100
setx GPU_SINGLE_ALLOC_PERCENT 100

ethminer -U -S eth.pool.minergate.com:45791 -u YOUR_EMAIL

3. Execute start.bat
   
   

   The DAG file will be generated. It will probably take a few minutes. 
   You will start mining, once the DAG file is generated.
