I wonder which is more profitable, 2x GTX 1060 6GB or 1 Vega 56?
I France there is a discount code on RX Vega 56 -> 405€
I bought them this price.
And without too much time to play with I get 37 MH/s on ETH (43 on EXP with smaller DAG) for 150W at wall (something like 140W for GPU after PSU efficiency)

I'm noticing artefacts on my RX Vega 56, when the HBM2 is anywhere near 970mhz.

It does appear, that Samsung has graded the HBM2 production into speed and voltage groupings.

So, guys, I can write public instruction how to get 1600h/s xmr with 130-140 watt, 44.2mhs eth 180-200watt or 43eth+220lbc at 300watt.
If I will find more efficient modes - I promise to public it too.
But my current life situation makes me greedy.
I can do it for some donation like 2 eth, I'll post my eth wallet address and will wait when it collect needed sum.
Remember that I already make some help to community for free.
Also I can write private instruction for one person. it will cost 0.4eth, PM me if you want.
Sorry for advance, I really hate this but I have some money shortage now )))
What do you think?

If you are against it - I will shut up.

To get back 1600h/s xmr stop your miner, go to radeon settins, gaming and move HBCC slider slightly, then hit apply.
Then run you miner again, here you go again ))
Need your kisses ))

Same results for me using HBCC, I got 1020H/s with vega 64 core 1150@900v and ram 1100@900v driver 17.9.1 (but with 17.8.2 was the same). I use intensity 1536 and worksize 16 and i tryed many value including 1500/8, 1000/16 1000/8 and many similiar. What's the trick?
Blockchain drivers will do the trick.
But it is difficult to downvolt with them ...

Isn't blockchain driver only useful for ETH ?
I though XMR was not concerned.

...

I've same doubts, but i'll give it a try soon. Anyway, is it possible that HBCC gave different improvements depending on the system/ram used? I'm on a i5 2500k/ddr3 config...
Still can't get what's the best instesity/worksize, could you share it please?

I updated my rig now. Swapped 4 Vega 64 with 4 Vega 56.

Running with Amd Driver 17.9.1
Vega 56 flashed with 64 bios
Samsung memory on my cards

Mining Musicoin (Ethash)
Claymore config general settings:

Code:
-tt 64
-ttdcr 75
-cclock 1000
-cvddc 900
-mclock 1025
-mvddc 900

Getting steady 41,3 MH/s per card.
130 watts per GPU at the wall. Mobo, CPU, etc already accounted for.

With dual mining it drops to 38 MH/s per card and fairly low stats for the other coin, so I'm skipping dual mining for flashed Vega 56.

I'm using the excess heat from my mining rigs to heat up my appartment, so in my case there isn't much cost involved with electricity during cold seasons Smiley

I have two Vega 64 cards now, same settings same everything. One is capable of 1250 H/s on Monero, the second one can go to 1580 H/s o.O

Would you mind sharing your settings?


After a reboot, I am not able to reproduce the 1580 H/s score Smiley Both cards run between 1250 and 1280 H/s. Just standard Wattman settings, core as low as possible, mem to 1100, temp limit 71℃, -5% power. However, this is not enough to reduce the power draw at the wall.

We need to give rednoW some motivation to share his guide with us. A kiss won't be enough I assume.

These two posts combined are some sort of black magic.

Running 4xVega 64 @ 1550H Monero mining @ 930W total system draw.

The trick to moving the HBCC slider was true.  All cards 1200 before.  Moved the slider up one notch on each card and hit apply one at a time.  Now 1550.

At around 60% fan speed each card is going no higher than 65C.

These same settings yield 41 MH ETH mining but at much higher power draw (1200W).

. From 1 card you have 1550 Huh?
or from all?

Using xmr-stak-amd (dev branch).  

I get ~1550H per card, total with 4 cards ~6200H.

I am on the blockchain drivers at the moment.

The 930W total draw is at the wall on my Kill-A-Watt meter.

By the way, I have trouble with wattman, it never work properly (white window when I open it). Can I do you trick with Afterburner ?
Because for now, my evag 64 is stucked arround 1000mh with XMR stak, and those settings :

Interesting to see Cryptonight results.
Basically a Vega 64 (or flashed 56) hashes exactly twice as fast as an RX570... for pretty much exactly twice the price of an RX570 (or less, depending on availability of the latter)... and less than double the power consumption.

If mining XMR is your thing, those Vega cards might just be a good tool for the trade.

My new best results with my vega64 liquid after moving to win10 and blockchain drivers

xmr - 1570h/s@130watt
eth - 44mhs@160watt
zec - 560sol - wattage didn't remember

dual eth+lbc still no improvements 41+220 at 230watt
it is old result with 17.8.2 driver on win7
Having stability issues with dual mode on win10 with blockchain drivers.
It works with default voltages and speed is good 43eth+240lbc but consumption is huge.
When I'm trying to apply downvolt setup that works well under win7 17.8.2 drivers or with xmr or pure eth with blockchain drivers - it simply hangs.
Maybe I need to give it more voltage ... but I don't like this way ))

You test hashrate on other alt coins???

I have the same problem too. Blockchain drivers is unusable, back to regular drivers. 2x vega 64 rig, 8gb ram, pentium g4560.

Okay seems like the driver is the problem. Hope there is a new release comming

Did you overclock it at all? or just stock?

100% stock, newest gaming driver works fine also with OC in Wattman. But in wattman i can't under clock the gpu very much. and i only get 37 mh/sec @ mem at 1175
