Anyone still following this thread???
I am having issues with my R7 240 4GB cards... I am getting over 20% stale shares when mining YACoin. Anyone else run into that problem?
Topic: [ANN][YAC] Yacminer GPU miner for Yacoin (Read 57471 times)
Error -4 Enqueing kernel onto command queue.
buffer size too high for system ram
not enough swap file
could be many things
It"s in my first time and i have problem. Nothing goes... Please, help me. I have Asus R 9 290 4Gb, 6 Gb RAM, driver 14.5, Win 7 64 bit.
Please.
Please.
If what I provided doesn't help, and you're using YACMiner 3.5.0, then you're beyond the help I'm willing to provide for free (which is pretty far)
I use YACMiner 3.5.0 and your help to set up, but have permanent HW. If you can, help me, please.
Post the new command line you're using and what you've tried changing
setx GPU_MAX_ALLOC_PERCENT 100
setx GPU_USE_SYNC_OBJECTS 1
yacminer --scrypt-chacha --worksize 256 --lookup-gap 8 -g 1 --buffer-size 2800 -R 4424 --gpu-engine 947 --gpu-memclock 1250 -o stratum+tcp://wk10.botpool.net:4339 -u bankmyrik.bankmyrik -p x --nfmin 4 --nfmax 30 --starttime 1375817223
I change lookup gap , buffer size and R but still HW.
And what command line did the config generator I recommended to you generate?
something like...
yacminer --scrypt-chacha --worksize 128 -g 1 --lookup-gap 8 --buffer-size 3532 -R 1664
Your R is still WAY too high, that's what causes HW errors

Well, I'm guessing you're mining zccoin, which is NF 16 - I'm guessing you've never mined a scrypt-chacha coin before?
Your buffer size is too low
Your lookup gap is too low
Your raw intensity is too high
read the primer on how to tune your miner for SC mining here : https://github.com/Thirtybird/YACMiner/blob/master/SCRYPT-README
there is also a config generator for ultracoin, which will work for your coin here : http://cfg.ultracoin.net/
it doesn't guarantee it will generate the fastest hashrate for your card, but it will be in the ballpark.

When running YAC, on one rig, it just quits on me after 5 minutes - an hour of time. With "pause" in the bat file, it just lists the location of the miner \pause and "press any key to continue".
No heating issues (under 75), the computer remains running, and I'm about to gouge my eyes out here because I can't figure out whats wrong with it. Is there any method or other software that can explain to me why its crashing? Just one of two rigs I'm using does this.

turn off curses (-T i think) and enable debug (-D)

Anyone mining YAC with 280x? What's your settings and how much are you getting out of it?
bump
I'm only getting 1.4 khs, and I'm told it should be much higher.
What were you told it should be? NF=16 is tough when you've only got 3GB of memory

config for R9 270X for linux?
What I don't get, is that if I'm mining at Nfactor 15, N is 65536. Why does rawintensity 7168 NOT work with a buffer-size of 3800 at lookup-gap 16?
One block is 128 bytes. 128 * 65536 / 16 = 524288 bytes per thread.
524288 bytes / 1024 / 1024 = .5MiB.
.5MiB fits into 3800MiB 7600 times: 3800 / .5 = 7600.
Therefore, max rawintensity without hardware errors SHOULD be 7600...

Your math matches mine 100%, and it should work. If your drivers are something other than 13.12, that might be part of the problem - I've seen HW errors on configs that should work just fine on 14.X.
That's what I was afraid of. I tried running 4 separate threads and didn't really improve the results much. I suppose the only real benefit of NVidia OpenCL would be in the case where there is not a CUDA implementation of the algo, as with Neoscrypt.
I'm good on Cudaminer tweaking and settings. Translating NVidia settings over to OpenCL is different story. I was more curious to see how close I could get an NVidia OpenCL implementation of your Yacminer running against Cudaminer. And also possibly running a NVidia compile of sgminer for algo switching support. Seems like it'd be more productive to move the API from sgminer to cudaminer.
I built Yacminer against the NVidia implementation of OpenCL just fooling around but I wasn't able to get more than two-thirds of what I could with Cudaminer- but at the same time, I'm not really familiar with tuning yacminer. Has anyone tried this and achieved results worth mentioning? It appears that NVidia's implementation of OpenCL limits the memory available to 1/4 of the total. And also does not support OpenCL 1.2. Anyone have recommended settings for the GTX 970? Do I run multiple threads to take advantage of the memory limitations (something like -g 4)?
Gigabyte GTX 970
4GB RAM (1GB accessible by OpenCL)
1644 shading units
Or is this even worth pursuing?
Not likely worth pursuing. CUDA is supposed to be significantly faster on nvidia cards than straight out openCL. With that said, you could try to run -g 4 or you could launch 4 separate instances of YACMiner.
You might want to ask specifics about cudaminer/cuda or nvidia settings in the Cudaminer thread - likely more people with nvidia cards there
