NOID-GPU 1.3.0 release notes

Release date: 27 August 2026

Summary

Version 1.3.0 adds the R4 GPU path and its new field representation. The
release focuses on higher hashrate, better measured energy efficiency on the
controlled RTX 5070 Ti comparison, and correctness across the share-target
range used by current pools.

The public miner developer fee is 5%. The separate Parano1d Pool fee is
3%.

Benchmark results

GPU / path Gross wall rate Board power Efficiency
RTX 5090, R4 127.096 MH/s 492.977 W 0.257813 MH/s/W
RTX 4090, R4 88.951 MH/s 359.870 W 0.247175 MH/s/W
RTX 5070 Ti, previous path 41.315 MH/s 162.420 W 0.254371 MH/s/W
RTX 5070 Ti, R4 51.337 MH/s 188.733 W 0.272009 MH/s/W (+6.934%)

The RTX 5090 and RTX 4090 results come from three 300-second offline runs per
GPU. The RTX 5070 Ti result is a controlled comparison from 41.315 to 51.337
MH/s, a 24.258% increase in gross wall rate. Its board power changed from
162.420 to 188.733 W while measured MH/s/W improved by 6.934%.

All figures are gross offline measurements of the real GPU hashing path. They
are not pool-side hashrate, exclude network and fee-window effects, and do not
guarantee the same result on every card or rig.

Miner changes

  • Added the new R4 field representation and optimized CUDA path.
  • Tested the fast target path through 26 bits, including 24-bit share
    targets.
  • Extended correctness checks around CPU/GPU digest agreement, target
    comparison, and nonce-search results.
  • Kept CPU verification of GPU results before share submission.
  • Preserved multi-GPU operation and device selection.
  • Kept public help, status, errors, launchers, and documentation in English.

Packages

  • noid-gpu-windows-1.3.0.zip
  • noid-gpu-linux-1.3.0.tar.gz
  • noid-gpu-hiveos-1.3.0.tar.gz
  • SHA256SUMS.txt

The Windows and Linux packages support NVIDIA Ampere and newer GPUs: RTX 30,
RTX 40, RTX 50, and equivalent professional cards. RTX 20 and older NVIDIA
architectures are not supported. NVIDIA driver 580 or newer is required.

The HiveOS asset was built on Ubuntu 20.04/Focal with GLIBC 2.31. Its highest
required GLIBC symbol is GLIBC_2.30. The final archive passed extraction,
layout, and permission checks; its miner executable is byte-for-byte identical
to the Linux release executable and passed startup and self-test inside the
Focal build environment.

Pool selection

--pool accepts parano1d, ariapool, a compatible host:port, or an HTTP
URL. A custom endpoint can therefore point to a compatible local pool:

noid-gpu --gpu --pool 192.0.2.10:3784 --coinbase o1YOUR_PUBLIC_ADDRESS --worker rig1

The custom endpoint applies to the user's mining jobs. Scheduled developer-fee
jobs use the destinations embedded in the public executable.

Fees

  • Public miner developer fee: 5% of scheduled mining time (30 seconds per
    600-second cycle, switching only between jobs).
  • Parano1d Pool fee: 3%, separate from the miner developer fee.

Verification

Verify every asset against SHA256SUMS.txt before extraction or execution:

sha256sum -c SHA256SUMS.txt

On Windows, use Get-FileHash -Algorithm SHA256 and compare the value with
the matching checksum entry.
