Which exact sgminer build are you using if you don't mind sharing?

V4 and later.  They all have the same result.

Hmmm.  interesting development.... I spent most of today tweaking the settings in the mining software...and have discovered this sgminer behaves significantly different from other versions.  I won't get into the particulars, but suffice to say, i have discovered some quite good settings.

In short, I am now maintaining a constant 59C on the gpu, the vrm never goes above 64C, the power usage is 121.4W, and my rate has went from 64% up to 73%.  That officially puts the payout from dashminer over what I am getting from xpool.  And I am still running cool.  Looks like I may let my gpu stay pointed at dashminer, at least until I get my 290x.

EDIT  I'm getting 80% at Dashminer with an old hot r9 290

Something is wrong with your settings. Should be at least 95%.
R9 280X is about 85%.
[/quote]


My settings are engine 1000 memory 1375 intensity 21 (will not run at 22)

14.6 driver

 these settings are as the miner comes the only thing i can change is intensity and that is as high as it will run Huh

I did some further tweaking to see what kind of speed I could safely get out of a single r9 290.  So far it isn't too bad.  I had to run a bit slow for a couple hours, and thought I would just see about pushing it to make up for lost time.  

taking my avg stats over the last 50 mins (since I started tweaking the settings for speed, I am turning up an avg rate of 111.8%.  The actual interesting part is my temps.  The gpu is staying at or below 70C, and the vrms are staying at 90C.  The power usage is 209.7W.  So, a 16% increase over stock settings with only 8 W more power usage.  

It will be interesting to see what I get from the 290x when it arrives.

But to be honest, I don't understand how this is possible. Perhaps you can share more details? Brand of the card, operating system, driver...
Maybe it is already R9 290X? :-)

I have Sapphire R9 290 TriX and that's a reference 100%. But somehow your R9 290 is 11.8% faster. ?!

This same card only does 7.68 MHS on Wolf0 miner. So your 9.6mhs is also quite an achievement!

It is an XFX R9 290A EDBD.  I am running on Win 8.1.  And I am using Catalyst 15.7.  The system is based on an Intel Core i7-5820K Haswell-E, and has 32GB of DDR4 RAM.  Honestly, I think I just found the sweet spot that my gpu prefers.  I just checked it, and it has been cranking on these settings for 17 hours without any issues.  Better yet, my displayed avg was slowly catching up with what xpool was reporting (> 10 Mh/s).

That is a bit of a bummer about the drop in profitability.  That said, it isn't all bad, at least for me.  This drop in profitability spurred me to switch back to xpool and do some further tweaking of my settings to try and drive up my profitability.  And wow.  Some of the stuff I have learned over the past few days, reading  and experimenting, has helped significantly.

As of right now, my 290 has been staying at, or below, 64C.  The vrm is staying at about 73C (well below the 90C I have seen in the past).  And the avg power draw is currently 172W.  I am showing a > 9,6 Mh/s in the sgminer display, but xpool is reporting my accepted avg hash rate to be 10.2 Mh/s.  I honestly did not think this was possible with a single r9 290.  Oh, and no HW errors, and 0.9% rejection over the last hour...since I started up with these most recent settings.

Looking forward to seeing what I can manage to attain with the 290x.

I don;t get this :- you are getting 9.6M with a r9 290 on a dev sgminer at xpool

but you only get 64% at Dashminer

What kernel are you using with the dev sgminer at xpool ?

EDIT  I'm getting 80% at Dashminer with an old hot r9 290

He is actually getting 111.8%, please re-read his latest post:

Hi all!

We've been making losses last few days, so the base payout has to be decreased from 0.26 DASH to 0.20 DASH. Expect about 10% - 15% less profit.
At least while the difficulty on X11 is this high...

X11 difficulty increased about 10% from 3 days ago.

nicehash has about 30GHs of X11 and it is their most profitable algo currently.
When X11 becomes less profitable on nicehash, all auto-switcher miners will move to another algo and we will have better payouts.

There are no interesting coin launches recently and so everybody are mining the same coins, which does not improve profitability.

Thanks for understanding

Just an FYI for anyone running on dashminer... I am using BitDefender for my antivirus/firewall.  It does NOT like the dashminer version of sgminer.  I have had to make rules so BD will stop quarantining it.  And once I did that, I have continued to fight with it to allow sgminer access to the internet.  I decided to post this because I walked away for about 10 minutes, and when I came back, BD had locked the sgminer out of the network for the third time.

Interested to try, but a quick question, your server detects which type of wallet (BTC/DASH) used automatically right? No setting/parameter on the miner required? i.e. if i used btc wallets, i'll be send btc, right?
Thanks.

Yes, no parameters required.

Thanks

I use a BTC  address and it goes to my BTC wallet no problem.
