Got Asus 290x OC Cards and getting 400+ in NScrypt. But still have Problems when switching the Algos back to NScrypt all Cards go Off. But when starting in Nscrypt it works.

Code:

     {
          "name" : "NiceHash_Scrypt-N_multi",
          "url" : "stratum+tcp://stratum.nicehash.com:4335",
          "user" : "***",
          "pass" : "***",
          "pool-nfactor" : "11",
          "pool-algorithm" : "ckolivas",
	  "pool-intensity" : "19",
          "pool-gpu-engine" : "950",
	  "pool-gpu-memclock" : "1500",
          "pool-thread-concurrency" : "25440"
     },

Okay, all bins deleted.

gpu-platform added
algorithm changed to ckolivas
main conf kernel changed to ckolivas
shaders corrected
vectors added
worksize changed
engine/memclock are what i use with vert

Each card is still about about 300kh short of where they should be:

I can't even get this to start on windows7 x64. Starts..then closes no errors..no nothing. And trust me I have run A LOT of different cg/sgminer variations with countless kernels at this point without any problem.

Are you by any chance running it with cgwatcher? If yes start first time with batch file, than you can use cgwatcher.. don't know why

By george, that was it!

I wonder why CGWatcher is causing that ruckus with it? Thank you, I'll keep tinkering with it to try to make it work with CG Watcher, I do like some of it's features.

This was my issue also with the intensity not registering.

Unfortunately, I still can't get NScrypt to hash more than 50% of what it's supposed to... I'm getting a paltry 250kh with my r9 290x.

Here's my setup:

Code:

By george, that was it!

I wonder why CGWatcher is causing that ruckus with it? Thank you, I'll keep tinkering with it to try to make it work with CG Watcher, I do like some of it's features.

EDIT: I see why. Cgwatcher removes the "pool-algorithm" argument when it recreates the temp.conf file (I don't know why it even does this..). This is the output it produces:

Code:

{
"pools" : [
	{
		"name" : "x13",
		"url" : "stratum+tcp://east02.us.trademybit.com:5550",
		"user" : "x.x",
		"pass" : "x.x!",
		"pool-priority" : "0"
	},
	{
		"name" : "x11",
		"url" : "stratum+tcp://east02.us.trademybit.com:4440",
		"user" : "x.x",
		"pass" : "x.x!",
		"pool-priority" : "1"
	}
],
"api-allow" : "W:127.0.0.1,W:192.168.1.0/24",
"api-listen" : true,
"api-network" : true,

Done, with the same result. Here's the updated config:

Code:

{
	"pools"	: [{

		"user"	: "x.x",
		"pass"	: "x.x!",
		"algorithm"	: "marucoin-mod"
	},
	{

		"url"	: "stratum+tcp://east02.us.trademybit.com:4440",
		"user"	: "x.x",
		"pass"	: "x.x!",
		"algorithm"	: "darkcoin-mod"
	}],

	
	
	"api-listen"	: true,
	"api-network"	: true,
	"api-allow"		: "W:192.168.1.0/24",

	"lookup-gap"	: "2",
	"gpu-powertune"	: "20",
	"worksize"		: "256",

	"temp-overheat"	: "90",

	"intensity"				: "19",
	"gpu-memdiff"			: "0",
	"gpu-threads"			: "1",
	"thread-concurrency"	: "24000"
}

And here's another view of the output (using -T to see difft output):

I'm appreciating your help sofar.

EDIT: Same results after removing "pool-priority".

Delete the setting "algorithm" outside the pools and change pool-algorithm to algorithm.

Edit
I don't know if pool-priority works with switching , so try to delete.

		"pool-priority" 	: "1",
		"pool-algorithm"	: "darkcoin-mod"
	}],

	
	"api-listen"	: true,
	"api-network"	: true,
	"api-allow"		: "W:192.168.1.0/24",

	"lookup-gap"	: "2",

Delete the comma after marucoin-mod and darkcoin-mod.

"pool-algorithm" : "marucoin-mod" <===

Activity: 9

Arrrg. If I don't put an "algorithm" variable in the main body of the config (outside of the pool config), then it tries to use the "ckolivas.cl" kernel and I get "Error -4: Enqueueing kernel onto command queue" and all the gpu's turn to OFF status.

If I DO add "algorithm" : "marucoin-mod" to the main body of the config (as I have below), then it boots up fine but when I switch pools the kernel does not change from x13 to x11 and all my shares get rejected.

What am I doing wrong here?

Code:

{
	"pools"	: [{
		"name"	: "x13",
		"url"	: "stratum+tcp://east02.us.trademybit.com:5550",
		"user"	: "x.x",
		"pass"	: "x.x",

		"pool-algorithm"	: "marucoin-mod",
	},
	{
		"name"	: "x11",
		"url"	: "stratum+tcp://east02.us.trademybit.com:4440",
		"user"	: "x.x",
		"pass"	: "x.x",

		"pool-algorithm"	: "darkcoin-mod",
	}],

	"algorithm"		: "marucoin-mod",

	"api-listen"	: true,
	"api-network"	: true,
	"api-allow"		: "W:192.168.1.0/24",

	"lookup-gap"	: "2",
	"gpu-powertune"	: "20",
	"worksize"		: "256",

	"temp-overheat"	: "90",
	"temp-cutoff"	: "94",

	"log": "5",

	"gpu-fan"				: "70",
	"gpu-engine"			: "1070",
	"gpu-memclock"			: "1250",
	"intensity"				: "19",
	"gpu-memdiff"			: "0",
	"gpu-threads"			: "1",
	"thread-concurrency"	: "24000"
}

I'm using "switchpool|1" by the way and switching from sgminer API.

Yeah, it seems "pool-intensity" or "pool-xintensity" doesn't do anything in the 6/11 version...

For whatever reason, my NScrypt is hashing super low. I've set intensity to 20, but it shows up as 7 in sgminer. xintensity does nothing. (on the newest build, 6/11)

Just woke up to find my 290 rig stopped for about 6 hours doing nothing, and my 280x rig running at a really low hashrate getting high rejects. the only champ miner I have running that wont quit is my home PC with the 260x.
