Thanks djm!

Question: is it working for solomining?
yes...

I'm not sure. I always get "submit_upstream_work OOM" which I guess is out of memory error, which is strange as it has plenty of memory and it only happens during solomining and I should have found half a dozen blocks by now.

Yes, powered risers dont get power from the motherboard so without power from a molex the cards wont work, or atleast shouldnt work well
Not always true.

If it's a simple riser (not USB), like that : https://www.hashratestore.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/04/powered-pcie-1x-16x-16x-riser-cable-molex-5-400x260.jpg

There is 90% chance that the riser is uncut, It means that the power supply with molex is connected on the wire but the power pins are still connected between the 16x female slot and the 1x male slot.
So a powered riser, will actually works without the molex plugged, but It will draw the power from the mobo (I run some cards like that, and you can check it with a voltmeter). If you plug the molex, the main power source become the molex.
That's why on this kind of riser, it's highly not recommend to do a dual PSU with PSU 1 on the molex and PSU 2 on the mobo, because they will share their "ground" and it can happen some electrical problem. (from what I read on some topics  when I was hesitating between 1000W PSU or 2x600W when mining on scrypt Smiley )

Thanks,
Yeh i get what you mean, that's why i said "atleast shouldnt work well" because with his 3 cards on non powered, that's a lot of power to suck from the mobo, especially with x16 to x16 risers.

I think the cards may have been running into pci-e conflicts and interrupt problems because it was populating so many pci-e lanes.
Obviously using x1 to x16 risers drops the number of lanes and stops the conflicts

yeah me too, too many "does not validate", also sometime it start other time not, problem with the pool i guess, i think it might work better with a standard pool?

[2014-08-14 12:05:29] GPU #2: result for nonce $00000000 does not validate on CP
U! vhash64 b641d601 and htarg 00000df7


。。is it right  with ccminer  m7 algo?

You look north/North-east and wait to see a few birds, if they all fly in the same direction it means that the card can support a high threads values...  Grin


This is what i am talking about.This guy know something we don't !  Shocked

Running Win7, I have one 750-nonTI; it just spitts out "does not validate on CPU" when starting...

However, a rig with only 5 750TI, slightly OCed, went from 18000 -> 20700

So 4,150 per 750TI from earlier 3,600!

Very nice! I did get a lot of booo's in the beginning tho, but I see more yays nnow Smiley

Do you have a donation address for XCN, djm34? Sorry, saw now - will send some to you now
What kind of card is this ? The total number of thread might be a bit high

I can't remember now; how do I check the number of treads from a distance? I have virtual access to the box

The total number of thread is just a parameter...Usually the big guns will support high number of threads why the other may not

I'm getting error : Unable to query number of cuda devices ! Is an Nvidia driver installed ?

Does this mean that i  should update my drivers ?
most likely, you need a driver which support cuda 6.5 (the latest one...340.52 which I didn't installed yet or the previous beta)

ok thank you, i'll look into it

Thanks djm Smiley

I will test it and compare it with results from Catia's

**edit: ccminer missed cudart32_65.dll - found one in som other version - so now it runs Smiley

in which version did you find it please ?

djm's doom version was one place; some 17-mod also had it.
