Just a tip guys. Use sgminer 4.0.0 instead of cgminer. Then use optimized .bin files not the optimized .cl files. Optimized .bin + sgminer 4.0.0 will give you  20kh/s to 30kh/s more. For those miners who uses cgwatcher, you can download version 1.3.5.2, rename the .exe file sgminer to cgminer so that cgwatcher will recognize it. Remove argument "-scrypt" since sgminer was designed for scrypt mining.

Or you could just use cgminer with the optimized bin files and get the same results WITHOUT the bugs that sgminer has.   Roll Eyes


I tried that but i get more hashes with sgminer. The only bug that i see on sgminer is it doesnt show the accepted shares and it shows percentage rejection rate. I just disregard those info and focus on cgwatcher to check my miner stats.

What's optimized .bin files ? I'm already using SGMiner but I don't get that part ?



There are some .bin files created by pro miners that i saw on a post in reddit. Just pick the file that match the thread concurrency that you are using. Extract it on your sgminer folder. Make sure to put "-g 2 --lookup-gap 2 --thread-concurrency (value) -w 256" in your arguments so that sgminer will use the .bin files that you extracted. You can still add your own config like engine,memclock,vddc etc. Also dont forget to check if your miner's .bin files ends with "l4.bin" or "l8.bin" you need to rename the extracted .bin files according to what your miner uses.

Heres the link for the optimized bin files...   take out your bin file in cgminer file and replace it with these as appropriate.

Also I have an account with pool warz that I received yesterday but I just glanced at it and it seems like you have to manually switch between the coins? Also it doesnt look like it pays in btc, but rather you get a bunch of different coins that you have to then deal with yourself..  sounds like too much work Ill stick with MC and let h20 do the work for me thanks.

Does the WU also increase and can I still use my GPU undervolted?

I have a 280X doing 1.15 right now. That's just not mathematically possible over the long run. Luck.

What server are you on ? I've just switched up my settings and in still only getting 1.5 shares per min between two R9 290s

Vanilla middlecoin ATM, but I get high rejects (still the payout is better than the other ones with lower rejects). My rigs don't like useast at all today, but that was my main server. Eu and amsterdam offer good WU and low rejects but also lower payout still.

1.5/m with 2 R9 290 is what you'd expect for a hashrate of 850KH/s per card (WU is about 0.9 x 850 = 767 and U is 767 WU / 1024 share diff = 0.75 per card so 2 cards = 1.5).

850 is what I get with I18, core at default and RAM at 1350.

Is that with powertune applied ?

Yes, powertune 20.

Ok thanks ill give it a try with just memory overclock

Anyone else get accepted into poolwarz??

Curious to see if anyone's tried it yet...

I applied a week or so ago and haven't had anything yet.

Yes, so much so in fact that it lost about 10% of its hashrate since this morning. I wonder if those are ppl coming back to Middlecoin Grin

edit: was 878MH/s this morning with 712 miners, now down to 791MH/s and 701 miners.

I am getting a heck of a lot of work restart requests from middlecoin.  It's basically killing my WU, which means I'm leaving money on the table.  I'm pretty sure it's because of whatever's going on on their end too.  It's getting damn annoying.  Basically seeing about 83% here.  That just ain't good.

Try wafflepool instead, i think its better.

I had about ten work restarts in a min today

Just FYI, given the outage yesterday, y'all can guard against having your rigs completely offline while still using the specific servers you want when they're up.  

I'm in the US, so the below cgminer.conf snippet splits 80% of my power between US East and West, 20% to wafflepool, and falls back to non-US Middlecoin servers if the first three are all down.  You can play with the quota numbers to create whatever behavior you want (making Wafflepool a last resort, load-balancing evenly among everything, etc).  It pretty much makes it set-and-forget.

"pools" : [
       {
               "quota" : "40;stratum+tcp://useast.middlecoin.com:3333",
               "user" : "...",
               "pass" : "x"
       },
       {
               "quota" : "40;stratum+tcp://uswest.middlecoin.com:3333",
               "user" : "...",
               "pass" : "x"
       },
       {
               "quota" : "20;stratum+tcp://wafflepool.com:3333",
               "user" : "...",
               "pass" : "x"
       },
       {
               "quota" : "0;stratum+tcp://eu.middlecoin.com:3333",
               "user" : "...",
               "pass" : "x"
       },
       {

Is something wrong? I am at work and miner at home, But nothing is accepting, I have Useast with failover to Main server middlecoin?Huh?

Accepting 0Mh/s

Check your stats now. Mine stopped showing up, but cgminer was alive and well spitting out WU.
