The GPU order problem may be solved by disabling AMD CrossFire in Radeon Settings.
For now, this is a relatively small problem, but I really want to fix this before I enable fan control and overclocking.
Please keep me posted.

You enabled phimem loading? Why? It doesn't needed at this moment. Try to disable it.

Thanks good to know..But I think (tested) , gpu order problem is not related to this..
UnclWish it is not the right place I know,  but, I did see your another post about searching sapphire Rx 480 (not +) micron, bios. Did u find something useful (other than Doktor83 bios or other than  strap trick 1650-->2000) ?

I guess the workaround wasn't perfect. lol
Could you show me a log right after you launched the miner?

It is just smallest detail, program is very useful with many features.. I have my own methods  for solving this , writing paper sticker corner of monitor for crossing devices Smiley , but even this doesnt work after 10 hours of pc looking.. Smiley

Here is opening log :

Gateless Gate Sharp 1.1.8 alpha
https://github.com/zawawawa/GatelessGateSharp/releases/tag/v1.1.8-alpha

* Implemented a workaround for AMD Adrenaline drivers.
* Fixed "Launch at Startup."
* Various improvements and bug fixes.

Actually, I am quite happy with the workaround. Enjoy!

It is beautiful, thank you... i can confirm that Adrenalin 17.12.2 ( + win10 / 1709) is working ..

Here is some test results :
Who will find the failure on the picture , Dear zawawa I think it is u Smiley




(Note :sgminer is also making the same problem, gpu reorder also dont solve this problem..)


make it faster than other miners and everybody will use yours...cryptonight is becoming more and more important

I agree..

Thanks! Now fan/temp/clocks info works. I use 17.11.4 driver.

When we can control clocks via GGS? We're waiting this!

What about pitcairn cards kernels and optimizations?

And it's stiil no info about current pool diff... And, please, think about individual algo setting for each GPU and individual intensity settings for each GPU thread.

I need your help friends.

Any idea about the best CryptoNight config for Radeon 280-290?

Bc Gateless Gate Sharp is much slower (about 7%) that Claymore 11.

Right now:
Radeon 280/280X: Threads 2, Raw intensity 512, Local Work size 8.
Radeon 290: Threads 2, Raw intensity 640, Local Work size 8.
You must try other raw intensity. Try to increase it for your cards steps by 32. But every changing relaunch GGS.
For 280X it must be about 768 or 832. For 290 about 832-960.

thank you for the hard work Sir.

but, i want to report on Cryptonight:
GGS 1.1.8  = 705H/s
Claymore 11 = 765H/s

and also in "log" it writes only 355H/s. is this normal or?

I haven't really touched the Cryptonight kernel, so the speed is pretty much the same as sgminer-gm.
I am sure there is a ton of room for optimizations, and I will eventually get to it.

i really start to like your miner Cheesy
few things to improve if u like

-stats window shows only 9 gpu´s...scrolldown not possible when mining
-an option to copy settings from 1 gpu to all other would be nice and save time with testing configs
-full size window would be nice too
-overclocking/volting features are disabled or is it just for me?

Adrenalin drivers have a serious bug, but I am implementing a workaround now. I should be able to push a new version today.
Is this a bug or it will be allways? It's need to think about future... If it's a bug, AMD can fix it's, if not, they may stay it...

It is clearly AMD's bug, but I came up with a workaround. We cannot rely on AMD for things like this.
GGS is working quite well wit AMD Adrenalin. I can finally enable fan control and overclocking...

I like it so far very simple.

How can I add my RigID to the custom pool tab entry?

That depends entirely on the pool. It is usually added to the username.

AMD's Blockchain Driver seems incompatible with Windows 10 Version 1709.
Grrrrr......

Dear zawawa , thank you for new release. I can confirm it is lagging less on the opening..I have already tested 2 hours...shares/min still less.
And I think, also Adrenalin drivers with compute mode making better than outdated block chain drivers at least for my cards.. (testing with other miners)

My question is : makes GGS , the following tasks automatic during opening? (or if it makes any difference, should I call GGS from .bat file with followings ? ) :

Code:
setx GPU_FORCE_64BIT_PTR 0
setx GPU_MAX_HEAP_SIZE 100
setx GPU_USE_SYNC_OBJECTS 1
setx GPU_MAX_ALLOC_PERCENT 100
setx GPU_SINGLE_ALLOC_PERCENT 100


In xmr-stak there exist a detail, enabling "LARGE PAGE SUPPORT", (I dont mean Virtual memory) ..do u think can this also help to GGS performance?

I am really appreciating your effort here.And believe that soon you will be in a place u deserved..Thanks..



GGS sets these environmental variables automatically, so you don't have to worry about them.
