When using which driver?
cuda29_GTX_1070 for GTX_1070 GTX_1070i and so on.
if you have different cards use cuda29-generic

Very interesting. Related question is it possible to use these binaries without having the epoch node installed?

oh yes, this is a part of my farm mining software:

CPU mining make NO sense anymore, I was running with 1TB Ram and 240 cores for over a week and did not find any block jet
