Proposal to add NIST5.cl since all kernels are included already #268
Comments
The official location for NIST5.cl from the repository can be found here at the Talkcoin github |
Just tested. talkcoin-mod. R9 280x - 8Mh/s. |
It's best to submit a pull request. |
@lasybear, is this something you can create a pull for? On Sun, Jun 15, 2014 at 10:00 AM, Noel Maersk notifications@github.com

Add talkcoin-mod (NIST5 algo) by Issue #268 + AMD drivers v14.6 for Windows compatibility fix
I saw a previous request on the forum thread asking about NIST5 implementation for TalkCoin mining. From their thread:
NIST5
Talkcoin introduces a new hashing algorithm called NIST5, designed to have a better combination of power efficiency and security than current algorithms. It chains the 5 final round candidates for the National Institute of Science and Technology's SHA-3 hash competition, which were all selected for their performance & security (BLAKE - Grøstl - JH - Keccak - Skein). NIST5 excludes algorithms eliminated from the final round for security and performance concerns such as CubeHash, Luffa, simd, Shavite-3, ECHO as found in X11 and Hamsi and Fugue added in X13. For more information on the NIST competition see here: http://nvlpubs.nist.gov/nistpubs/ir/2012/NIST.IR.7896.pdf
Can we, for good measure and inclusion, include this NIST5.cl file, and see if we can tweak it somehow similar to x11mod/x13mod except obviously on a lesser scale since there's only 5 hashing algorithms instead of 11/13.
NIST5.cl can be found here --
