I submitted Sia to product hunt, if it gets enough visibility, it could be great publicity

I have downclocked the gpu by 30% but that doesn't seem to affect the mining speed at all..   save your electricity!  Wink

yes because it is limited by the ram speed.
you may even get more hashes by increasing memclock.
but the algo is very simple and should run on registers only.
that's how you get 280x do this:

Mining at 756.267 MH/s  X blocks mined

Of course at this speed it doesn't "save electricity" ;-)

Nice speeds
Wish I had my rigs from 2014..    had a few 7990, 7970, 280X..     Roll Eyes
Only running a 280X from my parents house..

i am not able to get the mining working. i tried it with 2 different ubuntu systems, but every time the gpu-miner won't work it says:
Quote
./gpu-miner: /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libcurl.so.4: version `CURL_OPENSSL_4' not found (required by ./gpu-miner)

I had it too. I wasn't able to run build release but successfully compiled from source

git clone https://github.com/NebulousLabs/Sia-GPU-Miner

I had to install opencl-headers first

sudo apt-get install opencl-headers

and then just

make -f Makefile

At this time, I have produced 40 million coins.

40 Million coins mined just from yourself..... man I think this coin is heading in the wrong direction.

guess so too

also checkout http://127.0.0.1:9980/miner/status
says how many blocks you mined
I checked this & I found the address here is different from my wallet address .

I'm assuming for gpu1, you used GPU_DEVICE_ORDINAL=1, right?
yes, i did.
gpu1 load is 100% (acc. to msi ab) but hashrate is too low.
may be @stupid@ win  Grin

screen -S gpu0
GPU_DEVICE_ORDINAL=0 ./gpu-miner
[Ctrl+A, then press d]

screen -S gpu1
[and so on...]

works under Win64 Shocked
but the gpu1 pushes less hashing power:
gpu0 - 115mh
gpu1 - 65mh

Is there a native equivalent for Screen in Windows?? I am near illiterate, but have used it with help in Linux. I suppose I can use a thumb drive with Linux and the miner, just curious.

not that i know of ...

though you probably only need to open a new console in windows to get the same effect ...

Finally seeing payouts coming in to the 2 other rigs wallets now. 3 down 1 to go, but that one's just a little 7790 @ 55 MH  Grin not going to fill its wallet to quick lol

Actually its a dual 7790 set up, but as we all know, we can only hash with one card for now. if both hashed they are equal or in some instances faster and make better miners then a single 7950  Smiley

and are very low energy consumption and run cool......

Dude. GPU_DEVICE_ORDINAL environment variable + two instances of miner == mining on both cards.

how would that be presented wolf? ...

what would the parameters be in the script so that you can alot the miners to the different cards in the system ...

#crysx

Use screen.

screen -S gpu0
GPU_DEVICE_ORDINAL=0 ./gpu-miner
[Ctrl+A, then press d]

screen -S gpu1
[and so on...]


tanx mate ...

will try that in a little while ...

Yes, I had a four 7790 setup last year. The energy efficiency and low cost to make your ROI made them the most underestimated cards, given you have the extra space for them.
Great to know someone else has experienced these cool little cards... and they kick butt on X11 mining too  Smiley
