Hi,

I'm using the multi-multi port of "mytradebit".
The only thing is, if it switches to neoscrypt.
My videocard freezes.
What did i do wrong ?

Thanks for the help.
And my apologies for the bad english.

try a new .config file with ONLY the neoscrypt port

and also try "lookup-gap": "2",
"gpu-platform": "0",

BIM BUM...... SCAM!!!

Hello everyone, I apologize in advance for my English Googled, I have a problem with the installation of any version of pimp, I used bamt and I had had a great time with this PIMP, then I wanted to upgrade my version 1.5.6. with that before 1.7.0 and 1.6.0. and then gives me this when I start the rig :

GRUB loading
Welcome to GRUB

error:unknown filesystem

is a driver issue? Thank you for your attention

X11 does not use Hamsi - it's not going to do anything when given the options for it! Therefore, for X11, those options have no effect and are omitted in the binary name.

Thanks for the answer. Man, I feel like I should've figured that out. Do you have any ideas why I'm having such a hard time trying 2 gpu threads. I use what seem to be the de facto standard: worksize 64 and xintensity 64 but I get nothing but constant driver crashes. I was able to get cards hashing with a worksize of 48 but the hash was terrible. Are you running your cards with Stilt's bios, just curious if some of the things Stilt disabled would have an effect.

Incidentally, a few posts back I think you wrote that you don't attach a monitor to your 290 card, do you mean you are using onboard graphics or is it just attached to another card and that's why "gpu-platform" : "-1" is used. Never seen the -1 . Anyway I appreciate the work you put into all this even if I can't afford it, yet.

I don't use -1, but actually, several of my rigs are headless - they have no monitor at all, and I connect to them via SSH. I also don't run Stilt's BIOSes, currently. Running on Windows? What driver version?

Unrelated, I've worked on my x13 & x15 some more, broke 5MH/s on x13 for 280X Grin

Screenshot (nsfw): https://ottrbutt.com/miner/x13localrigwolf-11242014-2.png

Yeah, Windows 8.1 I've tried 14.6 rc2 and 14.7, I think I even tried 13.12 when I merge mined vtc and zerovert for a day. Congrats on the x13 speed, it's going to be a real bummer when your miner cl's let you mine x13 faster than I can mine x11. Hahaha. Btw, my girlfriend thinks the chick on your left monitor is hotter than the one on the right.

Hm... I know the Win drivers tend to be unstable - perhaps try lowering clocks? Also, it's surprising you can mine x11 at 5MH/s with a 280X - I thought around 4.5MH/s was the limit.

She has pretty good taste; I agree. Grin

Ah sorry I meant it'll be an even bigger bummer when you can mine x13 with a 280x faster than I can mine x11 with a 290x. So sad to write that. I've been running at stock clocks and i prefer to use afterburner, maybe it's time to start increasing the powertune and voltage and/or flip the bios switch. So many combinations, makes my head hurt. Do you have reference cards?

I have one reference 290X - it SUCKS. Reference 7950/7970 are good, the real old ones - those things are top quality. Otherwise, I buy the top card or close to it from a good brand - they're usually good overclockers. In my screenshot, the 290X shown is reference. To keep it cool and the awful noise down, I downclocked it.

Yeah my reference cards can be very finicky. Maybe downclocking is the key. Thanks for all your help, I really appreciate it.
Gotta grab some sleep. If I figure something out I'll report back in case someone finds it useful.

I have a couple problems with my miners that maybe someone has some ideas on how to fix them. The one that I want to tackle first is I don't think sgminer is making the correct bins, if that makes any sense. For testing purposes I'm only mining x11 with this config.

Code:

With the lastest sgminer from nicehash I can get 5.6 Mh/s with a reference r9 290x on Stilt's bios with stock clocks. The bin that is created is called darkcoin-modHawaiigw256l4ku8bclp.bin
This happens with Wolf0's and Badman64's builds as well. In the name you can see ku8, bc, and lp but where is big7 and hs? I know those abbreviations get appended on the name because I have a test machine that produced this bin, marucoin-modHawaiigw256l4big1hs.bin I tried putting "hamsi-expand-big": "7" and "hamsi-short": true, in the x11 profile but there was no change.

Am I right in assuming that sgminer is not building a bin with the 2 hamsi parameters? Or does sgminer just not include all parameters in the file name? I just need to figure this one out first before I work on the second problem, which is for the life of me I cannot get 2 threads to work. Thanks in advance.

290 should get around 350 kH/s , I think.

my r9 290 elipa's get the same as my r9 290 hynix's on neoscrypt

only difference is the hynix can go much higher engin clocks because they are flashed with 290x bios

All my stuff has stock bios, but my 290's with hynix, outwork my 290x's with elpida, by about 10%.. The 290's get 333k, while the 290x get 301k.

Still haven't gotten the last wolf release to run, need a compiled release.

Any higher speed than 325kH/s on 280X ?

What's your config on 280x? I'm only getting about 285kh/s per card.

Same question to go6ooo1212. My speed only 272Kh/s

Not really, dude - open air rig in cold weather with good coolers will produce that.

Nope. Watercooling FTW and driver Catalyst 14.6
