For the ETH mining, is 390X faster than the 390 at the same clock?

No.

Isn't EthOS a linux based thing? How this program will help under Windows?  Huh

I would suggest WattTool:
http://www.overclock.net/t/1609782/watttool-a-simple-tool-that-combines-overclocking-with-vrm-monitoring-tweaking-for-rx-400-series

Did he mention his OS? I could have missed it.

I have rx480, windows non-whql-16.9.1-Sep7 driver and nicehash 5.5.0
Did anyone manage to accomplish such simple thing as: sgminer --gpu-fan 50
I was also unable to set clocks and voltage with this. Is it supported?

Look Here https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/gigabytes-easytune-fan-controll-tunning-1630513
Well, thanks. However, I am still looking for neat command line utility, capable of setting fans, clocks and voltages. Sgminer worked like a charm with R9 2xx cards, I really liked that and kinda got used to it. So is there a fork of sg/cg/whatever miner, that supports calls to the driver of Polaris' cards?

Look into EthOS - they're using a tool I wrote for them to control much of that stuff, although it's not feature-complete.

SO..

(noob question)

How would i add this code into the baikal ui version of sgminer for multi-algo, autoprofit-switch?

Is there a version of sgminer that has the same increase in hashrate for certain algorithms as the latest NiceHashMiner ?

Are a new .Bin & .bat layout in order or is this an exclusive NiceHash thing for their profit switching miner ?

12MH/s on a AMD 280x with X11 is quite good compared to the 8MH/s with Wolf0 optimized .bins Shocked

NicehashMiner is just a GUI over SGMiner and other miners.

ok found it 2 minutes later https://github.com/wolf9466/wolf-xmr-miner...


yeah like i said above

talking about spreadminer for amd, is still slow as fuck?

It's not unfinished - the repo works... and about Spread, dunno, I think so?

there is any open source cryptonote miner for amd? also spreadminer is included here?

Open cryptonote miner for AMD - only one is mine, IIRC.

i can not find your miner, it come with fee like the one from clymore?

and what about the hashrate on a 390 for example?

No fee - same speed as his. Check Github?Low

Yeah if you are using linux and you have a bunch of Pitcairn or Tahiti cards you need to switch to Windows to get the fast X11 speed.

Swapping the bin file won't work.

Just to show it IS possible (nsfw): https://ottrbutt.com/tmp/nh-stolen-x11-linux.png

I've not gotten Hawaii working right yet - also doing speedups, but it's slow going in GCN assembly dumps.

I'm not sure if you are refering to this source code:

https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.11319732

Is there any chance to get these high hash rates with linux as well?

It's possible, but not without changing the code.

Anyone know how to get the optimized X11 kernel working under Linux. The one where a 280X gets 11MH/s.

It works under windows using sgminer 5.1.0 optimized nicehash but for linux I can't find that version and when I used 5.3.0, it gave me errors when I replaced the bins with the optimized ones.



see my comment two posts over yours.

I see, So the only way right now is to use them under Windows?

AFAIK, yes. Unless you want to reverse-engineer it.

It's not hard. Pallas, look at the disassembly for under a minute, and you'll probably get it, lol

anyway to get the x11 hashrate nicehash miner gives on windows, on linux?
messed around a bit with bins and settings and compiled miners from 3 diff source codes
best ive got was 8Mh per 290x

Yeah, but you need to modify the sgminer source.

Hooray!
I've done it!
I was able to cross compile nicehash sgminer 5.3.0 with mxe and cpu load is 0% now  ))))
So problem was really in pthreads!

ron31
look at this table to understand what to buy
http://www.mininghwcomparison.com/list/index.php
and this calculator what to mine
http://www.coinwarz.com/cryptocurrency

Congrats. Told you - some pthreads implementations dor Windows are really bad.

Please help me who cross compiled sgminer with mxe!
I'm trying to cross compile sgminer 5.3.0 from nicehash github with mxe (mxe release from august 2015)
with winpthreads that is a part of mingw-w64 4.0.4 compiling succesful but sgminer.exe causes 50% cpu load
I tried to compile pthreads 2.8 with mxe and then sgminer but got an error
Code:
sgminer.c: In function 'api_thread':
sgminer.c:5022:14: error: incompatible types when assigning to type 'pthread_t' from type 'long int'
   PTH(mythr) = 0L;

I tried more old mxe with gcc 4.9.2 but the same error occured
mxe with gcc 4.9.2 even can't compile with winpthreads((

Yeah, winpthreads is garbage.

you've faced the same problem and used gcc 6
it helped you?

I compile my own deps for a reason.

Using the same pthread lib?

pthreads-4.0.4(with 2.8.0 was an error). gcc version 5.2.0

And if you're using the same one for every build, little wonder they all have the same CPU issue...

More than likely, the CPU load is YOUR fault.

you mean i built wrong or problem in OS?
sgminer 5.3.0 compiled by nicehash (which is in nicehash miner) does 50% cpu usage on 2 different rigs
sgminer 5.3.0 compiled by me does the same thing ((
sgminer 5.2.1(by nicehash) does well

Using the same pthread lib?

sgminer.exe is giving me 50% cpu usage. I am mining with NiceHash Miner, using AMD OpenCL mining only, with an AMD Radeon 7750 graphics card.

How can I correct the high cpu usage to normal 1-5%?  I am using the blake256r8vnl algorithm.

I got this problem too in windows  in ALL algos. Problem is in sgminer 5.3.0 because 5.2.1 is working well. I tried to cross-compile manually with mxe - 50% CPU load. What could be the problem? I built with ADL_SDK 6.0, AMD APP SDK 2.9-1, curl 7.33, jansson-2.7, pdcurses-3.4, pthreads-4.0.4(with 2.8.0 was an error). gcc version 5.2.0

More than likely, the CPU load is YOUR fault.

The dev of this fork asked me to do a Win64 release. To be clear - my signature asserts it was built from the https://github.com/tpruvot/sgminer repository at commit cfc6e1ede0e385a9c0d4aea61692f79698b3e93a, and does NOT imply I vouch for the sources therein - only that they were compiled as-is.
