i just burned a small psu in a rig with 8.0 which was fine with 7.0 (i knew it was at the brink of its capabilities).
No regrets.. it was an old one.

but beware: Definatly usage power increase in this version.

same 1210w from the wall... no increase at all...

Seems zcash has a good prospect in the future...my crystal ball told me..
I think it's time to move from nicehash.. making my own wallet & keep my zec in it..

any recommendation for a good zec wallet (gui or web wallet)?

and recommendation for a good zec pools that pay well?

Yesterday someone complained, that one of his 2 GPU's  is getting hotter than the other. I had the same problem, but the cause was obvious.

That is normal for 2 GPU's direct on the motherboard, because the left one gets cold air to cool, but radiates heat into the fans of the right card. That is the reason I ordered a riser yesterday and removed the second card from the MB. Now everything is cool, quiet and fast.

Edit: Well, not really cool. I am heating my room with my PC's, but at least it is quiet  Smiley

Pulling 1560w to get just over 1800 sol/s on my 290x rig Cheesy

Nice!

My test rig just hit 470 sol/s on 2 x 290 4GB stock all settings no tweaks.

anyone messed with clock and memory on RX480 8G? Max I can get is 190/s on reference ones

GPU clock @1400 should push past 200 sol/s

What are you using to change your gpu clock on your RX 480s?  Each time I change mine with afterburner, it immediately freezes and i have to hard reboot.  Any screenshots would be great!
I use wattman tool it came with driver

I think it's funny that after every calymore's GPU miner update you can see increase in difficulty. (How many people actually use claymore's miner for zcash ? Propably majority of zcash miners)

-mport 3333
start in read-only mode too... only my problem?

How to start full management?

You have to download v8 again. There was a bug in -mport which has been fixed.

On gigabyte g1 I'm running at 1420 and Mem at 8200 for 208 to 212 sols. It works at 1440 and crashes at 1460.

Exactly. It seems core clock is more important in ZEC than we were used to in ETH
I have it undervolted so I can't get it to more than 1350
GPU @ 1350 gives me about 205 to 210 h/s

If anyone cares,
I can confirm less rejected shares in v8, I'm getting ~2% rejects, previously had ~4% in v7!

Cheers!
