claymoe will their be an increase in speed for the tonga when you do your next release i really do hoe so with yours i enjoy using more options than optiminer but most i can get is 192 stable overclocked but optiminer gives me 215 overclocked ive got free power so electric not an issue any info very much apprecitive thank for your good work

There will be speedup for all cards, for Tonga I expect 10-15%.

Cool thanks  Smiley

@claymore optiminer 1.5 with RX480 4g and mod bios gets stable 295sols Ve 242 on 11.1v. I really don't want to put in the man houers to change to Ubuntu again but anything less than  15% might not be enough.

Glad to hear that, waiting for the new version. There are plans for the expense of Pascalcoin or it is not worth attention?

I too would be really interested in a Pascal coin miner as well!

I've been looking into that as well. a miner built with Claymores expertise would be great

Pascal Coin is a flash in the pan altcoin. Pointless to get excited about.

Hi,
I need your help.
I have 2x 280X cards and I was using the v8.0 miner (because that's what the pool I'm using directed me at).
Everything was working fine, until I upgraded to the newest amd driver 2 weeks ago. After that the miner would get stuck in a loop at random times, telling me that there was an issue with the gpu.
I've downloaded v11.1 and tried that, but the problem got worse. The miner will get stuck immediately after startup.
I downgraded my driver to 15.12 hoping that would fix the problem. It works more or less now. I can only use my primary card, in the upper most pci-e slot.
For diagnostics I took that one out and started the miner with the other card in the second slot. I immediately got an error message, telling me that no opencl gpu was found.
Is there a way to get my second card running again? (It will neither work with the v8.0 version that was just running fine before the driver update)


Did you use DDU to uninstall the existing drivers before installing the new drivers.   

Yes, I did
Is the second slot on the mobo or a riser, if it is a riser sounds like it's a bad riser.  If its on mobo does it have a third slot you can try. Slots on mobo s do go bad also.  Also double check the seating of the cards, I've messed around in a rig and jarred one and they want connect. Also, you could try driver 16.5.2, it has been rather stable.  I'm running 8x 280x with 16.12.2 with no problems.  Also, what os are you using and is the rig used for anything else.

It's plugged directly into the mobo. I don't think it's a physical issue, since it was working fine before the driver update to 16.12. Strange that it works for you though. I'm using windows 8.1 as my OS and it's my normal desktop PC.
When you "upgraded to the latest amd drivers " were other ms updates done, if so you might want to try rolling back to that point.  Also, I thought you said both cards will work in slot 1 but neither will work in slot 2, is there a third slot? Sorry, also I'm win 10, there maybe others who can help with 8.1, left it as soon as I could.

No, unfortunately I don't have any system recovery points available. I only tested if the second card would work on it's own in the second slot. I only have 2 pci-e slots. I don't think the card itself is damaged, since it was outputting a video signal to my monitor. I would have left win 8.1 as well if the update process wasn't so horrible (I did it on my laptop and it deleted all my programs -.-).
Do you know if the opencl version is included in the graphics driver itself or if it is a standalone program? Maybe I could reinstall that separately.
The opencl is installed when the gpu drivers are installed.  Was anything else updated when you updated the amd drivers. Does the single card in the first slot mine properly.

Ok, then I'll try again reinstalling the drivers, maybe DUU didn't clean up the driver properly last time.
No,I think nothing else was updated.
Yes, the single card in the first slot is mining fine right now, not a single issue. (I still have both plugged in, but the second one is just running idle)

Hello
I currently have a rig consisting of 6 "Sapphire Nitro 8GB OC RX480" with a hashrate of 965 H / s for 530 watts with different gpu voltage settings with a limit power at -50% for each card. The gpu clock is set to 1306 MHz and memory is set to 2000.
Are there any who happen to have better results with the same graphics card?
Thank you in advance for your answers

the only real advantage of your x interface is having aticonfig at your disposal to set clocks real time.

once your bios is dialed in with stable settings your clocks are set during boot so you can just stay in console, not that i've noticed a speed difference.

of course there are drivers that work best, and a non systemd distro might have gains..

can anyone comment whether a vanilla archlinux install beats other distros by any real margin for mining?

For you Linux users out there... what is the preferred Distro?  I was going to go with Ubuntu 16.04 LTS... any recommendations and justifications/arguments for other distros?

I'm running 4x R9 Fury Nitro's (Sapphire).

I have Nanos, and I run Ubuntu 14.04.3 (last release that supports fglrx drivers), fglrx 15.302 driver (latest Crimson), and the most minimal X11 environment I can. For X11, I use the "slim" Display Manager (yes, the package name is "slim") and 9wm Window Manager. You can't get any lighter than that Smiley Then I use the .xsesson file (in home directory) to start my fans and miners when the system boots up. I set "slim" to auto-login as my normal user id, so system startup starts my X11 session, which does not need a display connected to run.

debian with a minimal x interface or console alone once your tuning is dialed in.

Now the money is free, and so the people will be
feel free to go 1100 and -96mv, if it crashes, just bring the voltage up a bit.  but it most likely wont for zec

Can someone post a "general" safe OC/Undervolt etc. Profile for AMD Fury cards that is likely to work on all Fury as a start for tweaking for a noob? (Stock BIOS)

1100/500 -48mv should be a safe place to start.
