Guys, I need a small explanation on what is the purpose of the -k parameter Huh

Using -k zec zec on my rigs is getting me less speed than with the default -k zec

GPU - Sapphire 480 Nitro OC 4Gb

Anyone cares to explain this?

I tried to use the -k zec zec on my R9 nano, the speed is actually lower. How do you get 40S/s on this card?

Radeon 7790 0sol/s in perpetuity... not sure why?

It has only 1GB memory. You need a 2GB card to mine it. If you look at the memory usage, it is about 1.6 GB.

I'm only getting 16 - 20 sols on FX 380X cards using Crimson 16.3 - any ideas?

I'm seeing others with significantly better hash although 380X appears to be a weak card. Has anyone run into this issue? Based on what I read I thought this was the driver I needed (up from 15.12). I browsed thru the thread and noticed some people thought it might be CPU related (but I never saw head to head comparison with the same cards - so nothing conclusive).

I also have 4GB of ram (don't think it should make a difference). My cards are running at 50c - so obviously not stressed much at all.

Any ideas?

My rig 470 4gb *5

Can only run genoil's with 2 gpu
and nheqminer 3 gpu

if run more than 2 gpu

Blue screen error with code

Thread_stuck_in_device_driver

and dump file error is

atikmdag.sys and dxgkrnl.sys

My current driver is 16.10.3 Hotfix

please help me to use genoil for 5 gpu because it's very faster thagn nheqminer

Please help me this problem thx

run one instance of Gnoil per pair of GPU. Read back the thread you can do that.

Try but bye bye too

Waiting someone help me

280x = 27ish - 32ish @ 1150/1500mem
290x = 23ish - 29ish @ 1000/1125mem -75coremV modded roms
Nano = 14ish - 21ish @ 900/300mem modded rom
7990 = 11ish - 17ish @ 1050/1500 on each core

Everything is WAY cooler than running ETH.
Currently V0.5 is more stable then 0.6 except with the Nano's.

Keep up the great work

um u should have over 30+ on 290x run mem at 1500 also your 7990 is running slower than your 280x a 7990 should be 2x that 280x

1500 mem? You sure it can overclock that high when the stock speed is 1250?

Whats your core/mem and what drivers are you using?

I've been trying to get the 290x to preform better but nothing really is helping yet. I did check the Kill-a-watt last night and the unit at the wall was using 930 watts. I wont be able to run 1500 mem on them because of the modded ROM. They are tuned to run low power.
The 7990 also should be rocking but it's not liking it. It is will the nano rig, that may have something to do with it as well. Might also be the dual GPU issue.
I had to go back to V.5 for the nano's and 7990. So at the moment everything is running V.5 and on 15.12 or testing on the 16.10.3 hot fix(no difference with 16 and v.6) with Win 10.

IT WORKS!!!!!!!!!!!

Copy the entire directory of AMD\Non-WHQL-Win10-64Bit-Radeon-Software-Crimson-16.10.3-Oct27\Packages\Drivers\Display\WT6A_INF\B308236

Into the Genoil directory, will be like 100 files over 250MB long.

I used the Windows 7 AMD 16.10.3 NOT the Windows 10 like shown above.

Interesting findings here, I put all files in the folder and it seems doing more S/s, first I thought it might be coincidence as the hashing speed jumps up and down a lot, then I tried to delete all files I just copied in and system prompt one of the files is in use by Genoil.exe......

So this means it does have sort of effect, I am trying to put Win 7 version in and see what will happen.

Yes and erase your old kernel bin

--krnl,-k kernelname set kernel(s) -k zec

- --krnl/-k parameter can have multiple parameters. This will launch more CPU threads, each running a miner with the specified kernel. For now, only dual (or more) zec is supported, i.e. '-k zec zec'

about all i can tell you is what the help me says i honestly don't see a point in using it, it slows all my stuff down and is on by default, i read some place. it's what gave old cards a nice boost when it was added to Genoil's

With the new version my gpu's are going to 0 more often and the restart function doesn't work. The colors and details are great but for now i went back to 5 cuz it was running more stable.

Try using https://www2.coinmine.pl, i was on flypool, my miners were crashing every 3 min, now in coinmine it is really stable

Thanks for suggesting this pool , i got tried of to many disconnects on FLy pool i like that pool but binng discounted to much and i couldn't use my CPU's with my GPU there i can on coinmine my r7 370 went from 22 sometimes or lower on fly to 35 steady on coinmine because i can use my cpu at 4 cores and they have version nheqminer 3a which doesn't effect Genoil's 6 at all like nheqminer 2 a does in other word my GPU is not tanked out by using both to gather like it was on fly pool , i do hope they fix fly pool if not it looks like coinmine is my new ZEC mining pool, I'll hit 200 Sol or higher being able to use my CPUs and because of all the crashes and disconnects it was causing I had to reformat my three card rig, error got worse and worse . I just ordered a better cpu cooler for the rig with my r9 280 in it, the cooler it has now sucks a lot if I stress my PC it shuts off it is a very cheap low grade cooler I used to get it running ,I had no intention of using the CPU to mine with .

this suck.

Yeah huge disappointment. Only good thing about those cards is that they use half the power of other GPUs but speed wise they aren't that great.

You can auto restart the miner every 5min uisng this scrip

:restart
start genoil.exe -c eu1-zcash.flypool.org:3333 -u t1N32yBJi27zyAgZLvWjsCFVyHLr4s23NHz.RIGGPU -p z -i 20 -w 64 -P 0
TIMEOUT /T 300
taskkill /f /im genoil.exe
TIMEOUT /T 5
goto restart
pause

But the truth is it does not help as the miner sometimes get the error in the first 1min or sometimes longer.

We will just have to wait for genoil to get his miner stable.

Thanks! I modified this to work a little better for 0.6. Now my hashrate on the pool is constantly exactly where it should be!

:restart
start genoil.exe -c zec.suprnova.cc:2142 -u Genoil.SilentArmy -p z -i 20 -w 64 -z 1 -f 0
TIMEOUT /T 40
taskkill /f /im genoil.exe
TIMEOUT /T 5
start genoil.exe
TIMEOUT /T 3600
taskkill /f /im genoil.exe
TIMEOUT /T 5
goto restart
pause
