COSMiC Miner v4.1.2 Update (Win64/nVidia | GUI-based | Multi-GPU)

Hello everyone! I'm happy to share what I've been working on with you today. This is an update to COSMiC Miner which adds new features, under-the-hood improvements and (of course) optimizations to the CUDA core for greater efficiency. I call this build "beta", although it appears to be very stable. With miners' feedback, I'll make any desired improvements for 4.1.3. :)

Important Note: Now built against CUDA v10.0 - It is strongly recommended that you update your nVidia graphics drivers. It is NOT necessary to install the CUDA toolkit. :)

FEATURES: - Mining on multiple CUDA devices in one instance, auto-detected - Mines on CUDA Devices and sending results to Pools (TokenPool etc.) - Fully-integrated Graphical User Interface for Windows 64-bit (Intended to make Token Mining as easy as possible for newcomers) - All settings can be configured in the GUI (no manual config editing required!) - Integrated Hardware Montioring and Safety Features ('Watchqat') - Faster, more efficient and lower CPU/RAM use than COSMiC V3.4 and the classic 0xBitcoin-miner - Aims for very few stale Shares at the Pool level and verifies GPU-found solutions on the CPU - Improved support for Cloudflare-protected pools (running on port 8080) - Multi-Threaded for enhanced performance on CPUs with >2 threads

CHANGES THIS VERSION: - Integrated Hardware Monitoring ('Watchqat') with safety features - Now built against CUDA v10.0 (please updare your nV graphics drivers! CUDA tookit is NOT required.) - Various internal improvements for stability, CUDA engine tweaks and optimizations (specifically to enhance performance on Pascal and newer architecture GPUs) - Increased hashrate observed on Maxwell Gen2 (GTX 9xx) and Pascal (GTX 10x0) architectures - Keyboard hotkeys (see Help menu or README.txt) for quick Intensity adjustment (more will be added.) - Ability to copy Events out of Event Viewer (select Events, right-click and choose Copy Events). - Network code improvements and bug-fixes - Optimizations to further reduce CPU usage - UI Reworking/Improvements (Feel free to let me know what you think of the design/UX!)
