I am very happy to hear that the new version is working for those with AMD cards.
As for NVIDIA cards, I will stick with OpenCL for now as I can do pretty much whatever I want with inline assembly.
I don't see any reasons why I cannot make my miner as fast as other miners on NVIDIA cards, if not faster, once I get really serious about it.
I just want to catch up with Claymore's first. One thing at a time, you know.

Im eager to see a fast opencl miner for nvidia, see if cuda can be beaten, not gonna be an easy task

Good luck and keep up the good work man, you rock Grin

Would there other kernels still work if I wanted to switch to eth or monero

I haven't tested them yet, but there are no reasons they shouldn't work.
I am planning to work on Monero and Ethereum once I am done with Zcash.

Here's my config. Saved in sgminer bindir.
Doesn't make any difference if intensity is 8 or 15, indeed worksize does make one and gpu-threads also.

Getting around 200/210S/s with my undervolted Sapphire RX480.
Compared to Claymore's who do 220/230 with these cards...
Thank you Zawawa for your great work! I will donate with mining directly to your address on flypool by putting 20 CPU AVX2 cores to mine for 1 month

Nice keep up the good work man, for nvidia cards support are you going to make it OpenCL or Cuda ? Think u'll be able to beat either nicehash EQM or EWBF ?

With latest v0.1.1 my 280x shows ~210H/s. Approximately the same results I had with cm9.* miner.
Thanks for your efforts!

Latest version works for me. Thank you for all the hard work.

O I understand completely. If my mining rigs didn't make any money I would be living in the dog house Grin

I would really appreciate that. If I don't get any donations, it would be very difficult to justify all the time I spent on development to my wife, you know...

Version 1.1 I am now up-to 201h/s on my modded powercolor 470's. Looking good, I'm going to test on my 7870 shortly and will most likely have it mine for you to support your work for 24-48 hours.

Edit: Hitting 137H/s on my 7870 sending that to flypool for your work now.

I just uploaded a new version with performance enhancements and improved compatibility with GCN1 devices such as Radeon HD 7970:

https://github.com/zawawawa/gatelessgate

Now the miner is running at 223 sol/s on my modded RX 480.
This will probably be the last version before I switch to the GCN assembly.
As always, I would always appreciate feedback and donations.
Enjoy!

280-290 h/s on r9 390, keep going, almost there Wink

And another my rig: Intel G1840, Win8.1x64, drivers 376.33, GTX1070(+100 clock = ~2000MHz,+600 mem = 4404MHz, 75% tdp):

2x 1070, GG with -d 0 option: speed up to 260 s/s, but it load CPU on 100%...so, miner update window only once per minute. With -d 0,1 options results more worse - ~200 s/s per card=>more GPUs, less computing power to each of them.
6x 1070, miner does not start. Seems, GG try to allocate a huge lot of memory/pagefile, but cant do it succesfull. With -d 0 option have the same.

I need to come up with a new CPU usage fix for NVIDIA cards.
I will most likely address this issue with Version 0.1.2.

I tried test GG v0.1.0 on Win8.1x64, drivers 15.12, 280x, but miner can't build *.bin file and app terminate with error right after launch:

Code:

....
Building binary equihashTahitigw25614.bin
Error -11: Building Program (clBuildProgram)
....

I am trying to get the new kernel to work in the legacy mode,
but it is taking longer than I thought. We will see.

In any case, I am actually quite happy about the port as you get so much stuff as a free bonus with sgminer.
The good thing is that it is much easier to work with the GCN assembly now.
I will do some experiments with global syncs first, then see how fast GDS is.

I just had to finally register to say thank you as I have been a long time user of sgminer and with your kernel I am able to get 184h/s out of my PowerColor bios modded RX 470's. I Like CM miner however I feel open source is always the way to go.

not any more you don't if you use the ported version he just did , I'm running it with out vc_redist.x64 installed i downloaded form your link to check and it's not installed on my PC ,,, you don't need much else to run sgminer on a windows PC . in the way of addons .the miner is now a true windows EXE program

.... i think also has Linux support .
