Topic: [ANN] sgminer v5 - optimized X11/X13/NeoScrypt/Lyra2RE/etc. kernel-switch miner - page 63. (Read 877859 times)

tanx for the advice ...

but unfortunately that had already been tested for 24hours ... 3rd level dropped it ( aparently he was 'testing' - but i bet he knew what the issue was and thought he could fix it ) to 1.5mbit - which worked for a short while - but apart from being completely frustrated by it and the connection for 24jors - was useless to the issue we were receiving ... its now sitting on the 16mbit profile ( i think ) and it was running fine until the day before yesterday ...

as usual support say its MY network / link / cabling at fault ... silly people ...

here we go again with the round of finger pointing before THEY realize its THEIR optus dslam thats the issue - AGAIN ...

Next time You speak with telecom support, tell them to DECREASE the speed of the line. They will tell You that they are measuring, bla, bla,... that the link is OK for the X speed, bla, bla,... I struggled long time with unstable ADSL until one wise support lady did decreased the speed. Later, when problem arose (it was once or two times a year) I knew that someone upped the speed, so it was easy to convince support to decrease again. 

I have started now with modding kernals..

Quark on the 280x standard clocks does 4,5 MHASH without changing the sgminer code only the .cl code..

the original code did 1.7MHASH

works on linux..

True, but it has also an effect in Windows.

I remember that from the days i use to mine scrypt when i was on Windows.

This isn't scrypt, i know, but the affect it has on the cards should be more or less the same.

I admit for being completely out-of-touch with crypto for last 6 months. My claim is based on exp with Claymore's miners.
What driver version is best for 290 ?

CPU may have an impact on some optimised miners (like whirlpoolx) or if you don't set GPU_USE_SYNC_OBJECTS=1

I guuess you never tried it then..

Because they are...

ah, ok, mine is 290 without X


If opencl dlls are in the folder of sgminer, then drivers are not important

Cpu has no effect, i have two Rigs with 290 cards, one had a regular Pentium and the other has an i5, same speed on those cards..

However, drivers, that's something that does have an effect!

That's a 290"X", same over here..

i have also slow cpu some celeron but i have 8 gb of ram , 4 x 290 on rig

weird, because xI=512 is slightly slower for me... but I may be cpu-bound, because the cpu is ancient Core e2180 @2GHz, 2GB ram

16MHs/955/800 xI=512

xI= ? ...

is that xintensity? ...

#crysx

14@950/600 xI=1024

that is true - even though there we have static ips for our links ...

its adelaide australia ... the ass end of the country ... its a gorgeous place - aaand everyone is asleep ...

im personally from sydney - and that is one hell of a different place from here ... alive and vibrant - not sleepy and slow ...

in any case - the issues here are that the telstra cable in the road are old and decayed - which makes for a very flaky connection at the best of times ...

telstra is the main culprit for this infrastructure - but does almost nothing to upgrade it in some of the areas that require high speed and reliability - the other companies ( optus - vodafone ) bulk buy a lot of their data and airtime - though i think recently that has changed and they have been building their own infrastructure these last few years ...

in any case - the link comes up and down like a bloody yoyo ... and one of the links is still dead ...

the home link ( where im messaging from now ) is a fibre nbn connection ... so its still up ... which does nothing for the office or the main part of the farm ...

which ever way this goes - the links NEED to be up and running soon ...

and funnily enough - 'they' continue to charge the monthly fee - even with no stable connection for weeks at a time sometimes ... without ANY compensation for the down time ...

Dunno what country you're from, but over here, the only thing that made my rigs disconnect was a power outage.

I have a dynamic IP, one that only changes when the modem reboots and i usually keep my same dynamic ip for half a year or so

Guess it depends on where you live..

no worries ...

time for bed for me now - im tired beyond description ...

here is to the hope the links come up tomorrow ...

nite all ...

#crysx

i think you are spot on sp ...

luckily linux makes it an easy thing to bridge connections to the one machine as a single link - for proxy or direct internet ...

will have to look into it ...

downtime is very costly for us ...

Thanks mate ☺
