wow this is really coming along good. Does anyone have specific settings for .bat file or config, for example, for rx models, or fury, etc, like xintensity and what not. trying to figure out whats best, but I get a lot of HW errors (for eth). Also with an rx 470 for example, I get 2mhs under claymore 7.4. As soon as I get it working right I'll put a nice post for you on my website. All the noobs go with claymore, but with good explanation and example .bat files that works perfect, they'll flock to gateless gate.
People flock to what is the fastest. That doesn't make you a noob, but you sound like one if you can't figure out settings and hardware. A 470 can do ~27.6MH (or 24.5 w/o bios mod) with CM 7.4, not sure how you are getting 2. I don't know speeds for Eth on GG, but the main focus is ZEC for now, so may be a while until Eth, and others are competitive. I tried the XMR mining on it, get ~400, CM miner gets ~680. I love CM miners for reliability, many options and control, and remote monitoring (this is a godsend), though I would use another miner if it were faster, preferably with remote monitoring. ETH/ETC are generally most profitable for Polaris cards right now anyway, likely not going to change since 1060/1070, and 28nm AMD GPUs are better at it.
lol I must of mis-spelled/typed/explained. I asked if anyone had good settings that minimized HW errors, its about being a little lazy I suppose. Yes 470 does 27-27.5, just change the timings depending on memory type. I meant 2 below what I get with CM 7.4, not 2...so 25 with Gateless gate. yes people flock to what is fastest, but for ETH you can't really go any faster due to the algo, so if gateless is about equal, that's better due to the fee. I wasnt saying I was a noob, I was saying n00bs get confused with all the settings. Anyhow, you should use optiminer for zec mining right now, its much faster except on the 280x. Its late, i cant express myself correctly. damn rhum.
27.5 -1% fee would be like 27.2 > 25, not too far off, but why use slower miner when I can use faster one? It may be improved in future, but not as good for now, ZEC probably catch up first.
Optiminer isn't faster from what I can see. Plus it is Linux only, buggy, and has very minimal features. Linux only is a con, because for Polaris, you can't set voltages, or flash bios. I could set voltage in bios under Windows, then mine under Linux, but then I couldn't set voltages switching coins. And I hate Linux setup. Even if it was better, my quest for fast miner doesn't include a 10% devfee. I don't mind reasonable devfee, but 10% is beyond absurd.
I mostly mine Eth/Etc for most profit, but have some 480s and 1060 3GBs (EWBF) doing Zec (both ~260H after fee, not worth terrible Optiminer for 5 hashes). If I wanted to use Linux, I could use CM to mine Zec for better speed (issue with Polaris ASM under Windows for some reason).
