Are we able to mine using GPU yet with the new Random X algorithm? I understand it’s more efficient with CPU mining but my rig has 6 GTX 1070s vs a low-end CPU. I would assume the 6 GPUs would still beat the CPU.

I installed the CUDA plug-in (copied 3 DLL files to build folder where xmrig.exe is).  
I’m getting an “Unsupported algorithm” error.

Here’s the json config file I’m using. Any errors in my config file that I need to change? Thanks.

I see. That’s why. Thanks!
