Hey Rigel,

T-Rex has a great option: "--keep-gpu-busy". Means, he continue the mining even with no internet connection.

Especially in the winter months that option keeps the GPUs warm and not freezing to death, it's a great safety feature just for the case. Is it possible to get that same option for your miner? Thats the only reason using T-Rex over Rigel.

(And maybe also add ProgPowZ to mine ZANO, would be awesome)

Thanks!

Freezing to death? Colder = better = less power consumption

Some of my rigs running in a room with a negative temperature for years and nothing died because of cold temperature. I don´t why people think hardware die in cold environments. You know about LN2 cooling for CPU or GPU in extreme benchmarks? You know that this parts running at -50C or more negative temperatures and the hardware is fine.

Easy too cold doesn´t exist for pc parts -> the only problem can be condensation formation, but never happend to me.

So keep busy was stupid at T-Rex miner times and is still stupid.

Yes, that's correct, Rigel has always better results than every other Nvidia miner, because lower fee, and maybe more realistic hashrates showed when mining.

But since last version, it was impossible to use for nicehash.

Tested in last day, 8 hours Rigel vs 8 hours Gminer, 4 rounds of nicehash payments, meaning 2 rounds of 4 hours each for Rigel and 2 rounds of 4 hours each for Gminer, compairing achievement into account, Rigel mined did 0.00002117 + 0.00002049 BTC, versus Gminer that did 0.00002189 + 0.00002163 BTC, even if Rigel have 1% fee vs Gminer wich takes 3% fee, both in same case, dual mining Kawpow+ZIL, same OC settings.

But I think 24 hours of each miner, will be more relevant, that's follow my next test.

With absolute the same settings as before, I got this error:

Also pool hashrate is too small, even acceptes shares is small too (26 accepted shares after 7 minutes of mining), compairing to Gminer wich does 41 accepted shares after same 7 minutes of mining;

So?

really 7 minutes for a test? Dude you must test this for days.

Rigel has always better results than every other Nvidia miner in my case. An extreme case is conflux for me - gminer always 20% lower poolhashrate than the reported one.

Next thing are the fees - Rigel with low fees compared to gminer -> i mean what the fuck 5% fees in some cases?

This is just a warning, the miner is trying to set zero memory offset to avoid DAG corruption and fails because it lacks admin privileges, you can ignore it.

So?

26 or 41 shares are very small numbers, you need to find thousands to get a good estimate of how well the miner is performing, see https://github.com/Kerney666/trm-ethash-miner-tester#mining-as-a-poisson-process

Yes, I used From 1.13.0 onwards "-a kawpow+zil" is preferred over "-a ravencoin+zil". as seen in first settings on my post.

Waiting for new release to test it.
Good luck and keep ON the good work!

Hi!
I tried today to use Rigel Miner 1.13.0 because lower fee rates vs G-Miner 3.43.

I used to mine Kawpow (Ravencoin) into Nicehash website + ZIL into Ezil site.

...

Any thoughts?

From 1.13.0 onwards "-a kawpow+zil" is preferred over "-a ravencoin+zil". The rejected share issue when mining to Nicehash is a known problem and will be fixed in the next release.

I saw that in calculations per 24 hours mining, regarding other miners using same settings for videocard, wich is watercooled.

Rigel 1.13.0

Add support for mining arbitrary KawPow (-a kawpow) and Ethash (-a ethash) coins
Old coin-specific algorithms like -a neurai are now obsolete and will eventually be removed, see below for details
Cache DAGs when mining kawpow or ethash
To turn off set --kawpow-cache-dag off / --ethash-cache-dag off
(API) Add new fields:
zil_state, indicates whether ZIL is currently mining, possible values: waiting, mining
pool_hashrate

--lock-cclock 1500 --lock-mclock 810

is it possible to set these values acording to algortihm ?

Don't you use different flight sheets in Hive OS?

If you set up a separate flight sheet for each coin and add your parameters in the miner settings, then your overclocking or downvolt should be applied. It works in the Rigel miner

--lock-cclock 1500 --lock-mclock 810

is it possible to set these values acording to algortihm ?

For example:
nexapow: --lock-cclock 1500 --lock-mclock 810
karlsenhash: --lock-cclock 1680 --lock-mclock 810
etchash: --lock-cclock 1150 --lock-mclock 2900

I use HiveOS for all of my rigs.
I had to change manually this values each time I change the algo.
We can put them all in extra config then the miner automatically select it acording to the algorithm.

I have been mining AIPG on Rigel 1.11.0 using ravencoin for the algorithm. Is there any other benefit or improvements to updating to the new version besides now using AIPG for the algo instead of ravencoin?

If your mining is on AMD video cards, then you should not update the miner for ravencoin.
Mining ravencoin is mining on algorithm kawpow, and usually miners left this algorithm because it is one of the most energy-consuming algorithms.

Rigel 1.11.1

The miner does not cache more than 1 DAG for kawpow algorithms in video memory (like gminer). This option is very useful for nicehash
