Has anyone know how to try new --hbcc command? ()

It seems can't add syntax --hbcc=off in bat file (Cast 1.1 recommend to turn it off to change/better instensity and IDK how to use command)

Hi,

a new Cast XMR version is available.

Regards,
glph3k

Cast XMR Version 1.1.0 (2018/6/1)

- All new --intensity option to specify the memory allocation in the range of 0 to 10, up to 12 for Vega Frontier Edition.
The default setting will correspond with the settings of version 1.0 and are displayed at startup.
- Vega Frontier 'Large Pages' support added, up to 30% higher hash rates for CryptoNight-Heavy, 5% increase for CryptoNight
- Includes the switch-radeon-gpu command line tool to restart GPUs, switch on/off HBCC, Compute Mode and Large Pages
- Nicehash supports now up to 24 GPUs
- --maxmem option is deprecated, will now be mapped to an corresponding intensity setting
- --forcecompute is deprecated, 'Compute Mode' of Polaris GPUs will be automatically detected. To overwrite use the --intensity option
- Default mining algo changed to CryptoNightV7, to still mine CryptoNight Classic add --algo=0
- Tested with Radeon Adrenalin Driver 18.4.1

Download Cast XMR 1.1.0 for Windows (64bit)

Thank you very much!
Just as feedback: for me (4x Vega56) all --intensity values are worse than the default of 8.

Cheers

Thank you so much for this, I have only had it running for a few minutes but switching the intensity up to 10 on my Vega64's has got them hashing around 1550h/s once more. Very much appreciated.

Is there a ssl/tls support for this miner? Also secondary pools config?

Be sure to add --algo=1 to your .bat file https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Dgn4nqq8XmM&t=24s

Hi, anyone try to mine ETN after the fork?

I have tried and it doesn't work. The found shares are rejected by the pool. Sad

Did you change algo to CNv7? Has your pool updated to new algo?

Hello,

Stellite is having a hard fork sometime next week... https://www.reddit.com/r/stellite/comments/8ngekm/stellite_will_be_having_a_hard_fork_we_plan_for/

Is there a plan to update Cast XMR to add this new version of Cryptonote?

Thanks

Hello all.

I have been mining XMR with 8 Vega 64s for a few days. Using nanopool the first few days I had no issue. The miner continued to find and submit shares that were being accepted by the pool and since everything looked fine on the miner I never logged into nanopool.
Well today I noticed my address hadn't received any rewards as I expected so I log in to nanopool and it seems that for the last 2.5 days Nanopool has been receiving no shares at all from my miner but in the command screen the miner was working properly and submitting many accepted shares.

I restarted Cast XMR and nanopool is reporting that it is communicating properly now. Is this just an issue with Nanopool? I would switch pools but I am just below the payout threshold so I have to stay on nanopool at least until I make the minimum payout amount.

Sadly seems I have lost the last few days worth of work because nanopool didn't communicate with the miner?

Any advice here? Probably switch pools and just monitor the pool info more closely...

Hi !

I want to clarify that I try to have the best hashrate possible by not taking into account the consumption because electricity is not a problem for me.
I don't want to heat my cards either. A good 80% of use would be good I think.

What do you think ? Any idea for setup this cards ?

P.S : I have try your config "frequency close to 1400MHz for the core and 1100MHz for the memory and lower the power limit at least at -20% (maybe -30%) and lower the voltage also to 0.9V for both core and memory" without lower the voltage and I get less hashrate than with my config.

For starter can you try your config without --maxmem parameters? From my experience that parameters only works if you switch HBCC on and set the memory to max,
If its not turned on it will give lower hashrate compared to running without --maxmem

My Vega64 also a bit hard to optimize, with 35% fan speed and mem. temperature 75-79 i can only reached ~1700, but mine is a reference with blower shroud, your nitro+ should get more, try letting the voltage back to default, max power limit to +50%, reduce core clock to ~1400 and bump mem clock to 975, and see what you can get, and work your way from there to reduce power consumption and heat

Hi dear mates, I've been using my 7 vegas56 with power tables. Now I wanted to not use them, then I used WattMan to do it but after crashing, I lost my personalized profile so I tested OverdriveNTool v0.2.6. and got it to work fine using a dummy profile (different values) so then profile with correct values will work fine lowering power consumption

all good. I'm using win10 with 18.4.1 drivers

I leave this information for anyone new to Vega cards no need for soft power tables nor blockchain drivers
for example script at shell:startup

Code:

:overclocking
echo Applying overclocking...

start OverdriveNTool.exe -p1Vega56dummy
start OverdriveNTool.exe -p2Vega56dummy
start OverdriveNTool.exe -p3Vega56dummy
start OverdriveNTool.exe -p4Vega56dummy
start OverdriveNTool.exe -p5Vega56dummy
start OverdriveNTool.exe -p6Vega56dummy
start OverdriveNTool.exe -p7Vega56dummy

start OverdriveNTool.exe -p1Vega56
start OverdriveNTool.exe -p2Vega56
start OverdriveNTool.exe -p3Vega56
start OverdriveNTool.exe -p4Vega56
start OverdriveNTool.exe -p5Vega56
start OverdriveNTool.exe -p6Vega56
start OverdriveNTool.exe -p7Vega56

echo Starting miner...

castxmr supports failover pools?

Yes.

how?

i.e.
cast_xmr-vega --pool cryptonightv7.eu.nicehash.com:3363 --user wallet.worker --password x --pool cryptonightv7.hk.nicehash.com:3363 --user wallet.worker --password x
doesnt work

Hi guys !

I'm using this miner too and I would like to know something about it. I have 2x Sapphire RX Vega 64 Nitro+ and i'm using Cast XMR 1.0.0 with options : fast job switching mode enable and max card memory option enable. My driver version for my cards is 18.5.1. Windows 10 Pro x64 1803.

In Wattman I'm using this options :

Core Frequency: -10%
Memory Clock: 1105 MHz
Power Limit: +20%

I've got 3115 H/s. I think it's bad because I have RX Vega 64 Nitro+ and I'm pretty sure i can get more with this card.. Someone here using this cards too ? Should I change something in my config to get a better hashrate ? I don't find any informations on google..

Thanks for your help !

P. S : I don' tknow how to turn off the blue led on my cards, if anybody knows let me know please ! Grin

You surely need to do the opposite from what settings you have, iow up the frequency close to 1400MHz for the core and 1100MHz for the memory and lower the power limit at least at -20% (maybe -30%) and lower the voltage also to 0.9V for both core and memory.

Hi !

Thanks for your help

What do you mean about "lower the voltage also to 0.9V" ? I can only change GPU Voltage to + or - in mV

get afterburner 4.50 http://www.guru3d.com/files-tags/download-afterburner-beta.html it now works with all most any a mount of amd Cards they finally fixed it so it works with the most up to date amd drivers and over 4 Amd cards . it has a slider to lower the voltage with a GUI so you can see when it goes to about 0.9V or to about 900 volts ....from the defaults i think for most AMD cards that is 1100 to 1200 volts.

Is Hbcc activated automatically after startup? If there is no fix this error? For which OC is this version? - Windows?

just use latest drivers, then you dont need this hbcc or turn on/off vegas shit
