Before attempting anything you need to get a custom miner for Scrypt-N.
=>
http://vertcoin.org/#miningIt works the same way as classic miners, input your info in the conf file or directly in the bat file.
CAUTION: the Vertminer on this page comes with a default .conf file, delete it if you put all your settings in the .bat file!
The settings are different than on classic Scrypt for most cards and you need 8GB of system RAM for best results if you have multiple cards. Here are some .bat settings that work for me:
280X at about 370KH/s (8GB System RAM):color 0A
setx GPU_USE_SYNC_OBJECTS 1
setx GPU_MAX_ALLOC_PERCENT 200
vertminer.exe -o stratum+tcp://yourpool.com:port -u nick.worker -p pass -I 13 -g 2 -w 256 --thread-concurrency 8193 --gpu-memclock 1500 --gpu-engine 1050 --gpu-fan 50-90
HD7950 at about 315KH/s (12GB System RAM):color 0A
setx GPU_MAX_ALLOC_PERCENT 200
setx GPU_USE_SYNC_OBJECTS 1
vertminer.exe -o stratum+tcp://yourpool.com:port -u nick.worker -p pass -I 19 -w 256 --thread-concurrency 19712 -g 1 --gpu-fan 60-90 --gpu-powertune 10 --gpu-memclock 1485 --gpu-engine 1080
If you think this was useful to you consider mining for me while you test your optimal settings
vertminer.exe -o stratum+tcp://stratum.vtcpool.co.uk:3333 -u b0ss.kindminer -p kindminer
For those interested, these settings worked for me on
HD7950 cards and only
4GB of RAM:
color 0A
setx GPU_USE_SYNC_OBJECTS 1
setx GPU_MAX_ALLOC_PERCENT 200
vertminer.exe -o stratum+tcp://yourpool.com:port -u nick.worker -p pass -I 13 -w 256 --thread-concurrency 8192 -g 2 --gpu-fan 60-90 --gpu-powertune 10 --gpu-memclock 1475 --gpu-engine 1080
This only provided me with 265KH/s, by just adding more RAM I could get my intensity and TC higher and achieve the 315KH/s hash rate.
