I'm getting 1.29 CPD and I get 1.55 CPD on the other miner, performance is getting really close on the 7970/280X gpu cards.

Hope the next update meets or exceed the performance of the other miner for the 7970/280X.

I've tried the 2.1 BETA and the one preceding it and both times after a bit (maybe only ten minutes?) it stops producing results. 

I'd press "S" and am getting status updates but no more results like I was earlier on.  Perhaps some sort of bug?  Maybe the driver crashed and relaunched and the app became hung.  Not sure.

This experiment though has convinced me I want to GPU mine XPM though.  So I am trying the one that costs 35 XPM now. Thanks for all the work.

I've noticed that setting gpu_max_allocae blabla variable has close implication on HashCount.
So make: set gpu_ blabla=100 in .bat file and next deal with -hc.
I also noticed that -hc 640 in command line made it hc=512 in miner info.
So HC greater than 512 is cut?

As first line in bat?
Rest of settings under that comand, or just on same line?
Thnx
edit:Did set it at top of bat, hc was then reconised as 512, BUT it did not mine as mentioned before. trt 0 and no stats on 4ch or others. is it still working and submitting work??

What would be a good setting for 2 gpus rigg? both low end cpu, and midleclass/high end cpu?
Is this your speed up release?  Cool
Happy mining!

Always use default settings, change them only if you see that something is wrong.
If you see high CPU load use "-ss 2". If miner crashed try "-hc 256" if you know that it is not overclock-related crash.
No special setup required, it is easy-to-use miner, just start and mine Smiley
In bat file, i set: -hc 512, but still when miner starts, it says hscount 256??
I have not included max_allocate_ code this time either since it made only troubles last time.
What is wrong in my config?
NsXpmMiner.exe -o ypool.net -u blabla.miner01-1 -p x -di 0 -ss 0 -t 8 -hc 512 -sd 1
cpu is a fx-835 8 core, cpu load 30-40%

Right, my fault, with -sd.
Just wanted to be your beta tester 2 fast :-D

More stats with my 4x280X rig.

4 cards -hc 512 miners start to eat RAM and finally crash like before.
3 cards - works like before with -hc 512, reaching 113-118 4ch.
4 cards with -hc 256 - its like 80-90 4ch.
4 cards with -hc 448 - its like 85-95 4ch.

So   3 cards -> 330 4ch.
and 4 cards -> 360 4ch.

add power costs... :-D

That's very strange. When I set "-hc 256" I see only minor speed down, may be 4-5%. What CPU do you use? Try "-hc 256 -ss 2".

CPU is AMD A4-4000, best is that CPU wont reach 100% even with 4 cards with miner version 2.0,
-ss 2 is very nice for CPU, no more than 40% total use, but after adding 4th card with -hc 512 it still makes random card start to eat RAM (4GB installed), then start to use pagefile, and you know what's next.


Try "-hc 256 -ss 2" for 4 cards, what 4ch/h values?

"4 cards with -hc 256 - its like 80-90 4ch." those were setting you want :-D

Yes, you wrote it already. But there is no "-ss 2" in your config!

Yes, I know, that's because I wrote only about -hc, finding best options :-P

My current rig is 3 cards with 4th physicaly disconnected, my power costs are 0.2$/kwh
Mo much profit wow :-)

-ss 0 working?
when i use -ss 0 - GPU load is 60% only - not 100%....

Yes, "-ss 0" works. If you get lower GPU usage it means you CPU load is too high, don't use this option.

-ss 0 dont work (((

What about CPU load?

Read my post above, those're 280X
edit: some people are getting 120 4ch.
