Glad you got it working but I'm not going from 93kh/s on the last n factor to 28kh/s on this one. I'm going somewhere else until someone can find settings that will produce at least 38-40 kh/s with no HW errors. I tried for 5 hours to no avail.

lol keep daydreaming...

Try this, download yacminer 3.5 and use the following settings:

--scrypt-chacha --nfmin 4 --nfmax 30 --starttime 1388361600 --no-submit-stale --expiry 10 --scan-time 1 --queue 0 --gpu-engine 1120 --gpu-memclock 1200 --gpu-fan 0-100 --temp-target 75 --temp-cutoff 100 --temp-overheat 90 --auto-gpu --auto-fan --rawintensity 5120 --buffer-size 1698 -g 1 -w 256 --lookup-gap 4

I was checking the orphan percentage at ultra2 and it was 40% in the last 24hours, 22.5% in the last 7 days.
So I'm leaving ultracoin for now, hope it will fix soon than I'll be back.

Me too, i mined for the past 8 hours with 400-450 kh/s and only got 31 UTC because of the Orphans, i'm back to VTC but at least i did some experience with yacminer.
Maybe if the orphan's are gone i will come back.

Guys, trust me, use yacminer 3.5...it's way more intuitive to just set a lookup-gap value and a buffer-size one and then work on tuning -R (rawintensity). Should be using multiples of the worksize and that's about it.

I tried but I can't make it work. Have you got a config for a 7950?

Hi guys!
Does anybody knows how to get 3*280x work in a rig with only 3 GB RAM?
Thank you

your tc is still way to low, at -g 1 you would only be utilizing 3gb of memory. If your card has 4gb of memory and 2048 shaders your tc should be upwards of 80000, lookup gap 3

It would be nice to be able to lock a set amount of coins in the wallet for the use of stake, and there would then also be a password and a warning text that says that the timer on these coins will now be reset when moving them out of the "vault". Sure I could have a separate wallet for staking my coins but implementing it into the wallet would be much cooler

Can anyone explain this Proof of stake thing to me. I currently have all my coins on crypty but if i could get interest by just having them in my wallet then that would be great.

After seeing the instructions it seems that my passprase can be set to always be entered which surely means that my coins are always at risky and anyone can withdraw my coins if my computer is hacked with malware? Am i missing something here?

Two things - first, we are looking at developing exactly what was mentioned - locking a portion of coins for proof of stake. This is one of a few modifications soon to be underway.

And second - ideally your wallet will be unlocked, but encrypted, which removes the risk (someone correct me if I'm wrong).

The last parameter in the ['walletpassphrase' yourpassword '999999999' true] is what unlocks it for minting. The true/false flag is "true" for minting only, or "false" for just keep it unlocked for some specified amount of seconds.

I'm pulling that from memory, but I think that's correct.

Hey some 290 settings, this will give 62khash at 977core :

--scrypt-jane --sj-nfmin 4 --sj-nfmax 30 --sj-time 1388361600 -I 16 -g 1 -w 64 --thread-concurrency 85000 --lookup-gap 3

This is better than going 90000 TC with lookup-gap 4. Itensity of 17 and higher slows the system by a huge amount(at least for me). There may be room for improvement but I have already achieved 280x/290 ratio of 0.81. I have 8gb of ram + 16gb of pagefile(set as a constant).

Cause people keep asking for 290 settings.

Also I have played a lot with 280x both lg=3 and lg=4 and these seem to yield best results(they are not mine): I agree its time to go yacminer, with default cgminer there are not enough options to tune intensity.

--scrypt-jane --sj-nfmin 4 --sj-nfmax 30 --sj-time 1388361600 -I 12 -g 2 -w 256 --thread-concurrency 32768 --lookup-gap 4

i am currently talking to a dev about making a tool that provides correct values per card & N-factor automaticly

He did not say yes at this time....stay tuned

UTC most profitable to mine

Thats because it hasnt taken into account the n-factor change

It doesn't have to, the user needs to update their Scrypt-Jane hashrate setting. Once you do it settles back down to a sane value ... 3rd place or so for me. Nothing wrong with the site.

Bumface and Nitro dev's have done what they can with the hashrate problem

It's the miner's who are at fault

guys we are aware of the hashrate distribution,and we are working on solutions.

but at the end of the day its the miners that choose were to mine, this is not nitro`s fault....

this is a self perpetuating situation, nobody leaves nitro becasue they dont want orphans at other pools, but if enough people left, those other pools wont even have any orphans..

I can not force people to switch, i paid 5000 UTC to move people......

If miners refuse to leave my hands are tied

+1 miners move ya ass spread the hash

There is no reason to change pool and lose 7%+.
I'll move if the Nitro fee is higher than orphans on other pools, so 10% fee, 15%-20% would have a much quicker effect. Fee could be made variable based on percentage of network hash power, similar to what GHash.io did with Litecoin bonus rewards.
How much was 5000UTC at the time - $500-$750? Hardly a substantial incentive when spread among the large miners.

What if u only have p2pools? It automatic spread the hashrate right?

If only a couple of miners leave nitro, they just have less coins on other pools, so they don't go away.
I also like the suggestion u mention similar to ghash.io, change the blockreward on nitro of hashrate network. Maybe miners will leave then. If nothing change they don't leave.

Does it still work with the modded CG Miner? I kept lowering my TC settings but still only getting hardware error

It will work simply by lowering the Intensity by 1.
But it won't get you the most optimal hash rate.

I was getting about 20 mB/day before the change, after dropping my intensity by 1 and putting my new hashrate in whatmine, I am again getting about 20 mB/day ... seems pretty optimal to me! Even if I could squeak a tiny bit more out, I can't be bothered to spend hours tweaking it when what I've got is already the third or so most profitable thing I could mine. The time spent tweaking and the coins lost during that time would probably outweigh what I would gain in even a month of mining with the slightly improved hashrate.
