Ok, thanks guys for the fast reply.

B.T. Coin: I am using those in my batch files and found a really good program (manager) called Awesome Miner that uses them too.
Wolf0: Wow you are one of the developers I see who makes modded kernels. I am honored by your reply. Please elaborate on how the stats work and count.

AwesomeMiner downloads a fresh miner (today it's saying it is version 4.2.2) None of the v5 devel miners worked until I upgraded the buffer to 1G for the GPU portion of my AMD A8 APU. I am giving about 225Khash to waffle pool right now, but they don't accept very many of my shares. Other pools are much more accepting of my work. NiceHash is in close to the same range as Waffle when it comes to work accepted. XPool and Ghash.io accept way more of my shares then these new-to-me pools do, but these new pools are multi-algorithm. Does that make a difference? Should I try NiceHash's non-switching ports? will that make a difference in the acceptance rate?

What factors affect the stale and rejected rates and how do I increase WU, which I suspect is Work Utilization. Is there a glossary for all these terms, a WikiPedia article or something?

The program crashed and gave me an error saying my buffer was too small in the beginning. Took me 3 days to fix that.

Run this once in your command prompt:
setx GPU_MAX_ALLOC_PERCENT 100
setx GPU_USE_SYNC_OBJECTS

Hello everyone, I am new to mining and have gotten this devel version of sgminer to start hashing on the x11 algo. I noticed that the A: does not seem to be working or any of the top stats for that matter. I am using Win7 Ultimate and have the 13.2 catalyst drivers. The program crashed and gave me an error saying my buffer was too small in the beginning. Took me 3 days to fix that.  I increased the buffer in my BIOS for the APU-GPU buffer.  Please point me to documentation on this program I have read the Git page.. Looking for info on the second status line (beginning with ST: and ending with RF:) and also the plethora of options that are available for the config file. I have read the command line help page. I am very excited to be part of this vibrant and active community and will look forward to getting some hash power up to Niceash via the WestHash portal. Thanks for the help guys/gals.

is there a gui shell or version of sgminer 5+?

I have checked pimp, but it may be that i can't use that because i don't have a usb stick and a forum member said that pimp will overwrite whatever i have on my ssd.

Hi, which amd driver works best with the latest sgminer (5.1) on 280x? I have 5 of these cards on a win8.1 system that i want to point at nicehash algo switching pool. Could you please link me to the appropriate file?

What's up I heard there was a modified neoscrypt.CL that bypasses the bottleneck on R290X's, is that public yet?
What bottleneck are we talking about? Can we try to be not as vague as "something, somewhere fixing somewhat available to someone"?

You can read the details in the feathercoin forum, that's where the neoscrypt GPU beta testing is going on, and where the neoscrypt.cl came from in the first place.

haven't found a way to mine with my older cards (two 5870 and one 5830) for neoscrypt efficiently...i think it is only a matter of time till someone tweaks the miner for older cards, currently i'm using it to mine cryptonote with claymore miner and these three cards fetch me 754h/s compared to a single 280x h/s of ~600h/s....i remember when claymore later added support for older cards, the same will happen to neoscrypt miners..

Have you tried the kernel modded for older cards yet?

If not, try this: http://phoenixcoin.org/downloads/neoscrypt_vliw.cl

I'm using it for 5870's....42 kh/s each card...hopefully soon someone get's a kernel for us.

will try it.thanks.

that is very inefficient..my 7750 is at 70kh/s..5870 could double that of 7750 to about 140kh/s more..seen it double in other algo like scrpyt and cryptonote.

EDIT: it works thanks damm315er....hey lsss you should try other settings, mine is -i 11 -w 64 -g 1 (overclocked)


the ~100 kh/s is my 5830 and the 140 - 170 kh/s are my 5870's..don't know much about "WU" it is too high compared to my 280x but 0 HW which is good.

there is still the ..i'm still tweaking



Yeah, something wrong there. 100% rejects and 0 accepted shares. But if you get it sorted and still have that high of a hashrate, that's great.

Which kernel and miner are you using?

http://phoenixcoin.org/downloads/neoscrypt_vliw.cl on sgminer

i tried a few tweaks but still unsuccessful

I would say it is because of sgminer, ghostlander says it will work but I couldn't get it to work. I suppose it depends on the version of sgminer. So i just used cgminer 3.7.8

If you're running neoscrypt, each GPU should be at 320+ kh/s.

320k is maxxed for the 280x's, but the 290/290x are bottle-necked at about the same speed.  There's an update coming soon to kick the 290/290x up a bit further.

Yeah that's NeoScrypt.

Do you have decent enough config to bring my 280x's to 320kh/s+?

I don't run any 280's, only 290/290x, but there's settings posted all over that should get you there.  Dig in here, and over at the feathercoin forum.

How's this looking chaps?



GPU 0, 1 and 2 are 280x's from MSI and 3 and 4 are 290x's from Sapphire.

You need to find out what's up with all the rejects.  Look into whether you're using the right port, algo, etc.  Maybe back the hashing down a bit to start with.

Hi guys, this is my story, i came from the old world of mining litecoins...
I have a saphire 29 290 4 gb ram VGA, i used to mining litecoins, but a few months ago, i quit mining.

Now i see that my "old card" can mine this x11 x13 x15 "things" of darkcoins and others...

Here`s my question:

How can i mine darkcoins or the most profitable coins today with this card?
If you can tall my, i nedd pool`s name, configuration for my card...

I will thank you very much.


P.d: I read a lot ( almost every page here) but the information at this point is old... this tec is moving too fast jajajaja.
