I just updated the download links, because some were not able to load the miner.

Working heavily on new code, but I am only one person with dayjob and family beside, so it takes some time - but new (faster) code will come Smiley

only this miner support amd card..
amd user will wait , dont forget about tahiti , thank u  Grin

Any updateds on this miner or another miner? NVIDIA already had 3-4 miner updates

All good things to those who wait
All the links give an error about potential virus. Is there somewhere else we can download this miner?
Some browsers like chrome detect the mining software and block the download. Others like IE usually don't. Try different browsers and if they all block, perhaps there is an option to check the links for viruses which can be turned off temporarily.

we got minus difficulty on the pool on tahiti card and high abnormal hashrate, like 90s/s per card
this miner ok for other amd card? or just not ok for tahiti ?

Its crazy to believe that so many people are still using the Tahiti's according to this thread.

Basically if you got a Tahiti you are better off mining XMR at the moment.

Reason why is because those you can reduce the voltage to the min value of 0.950V and if you got a decent ASIC quality you can run them at 1000/1500 core and you will get like 600H/s and it will only use like 130 Watts of power.

With ZEC it always used almost 200 Watts or so. With ETH it used even more electricity. The worst was Scrypt which was like 350 Watts per GPU from the wall.
That's a great summary for 7950's

Actually I still run 6 x 7950's and one 7970  Grin Doing well on an ethhash clone with them, but they always hold their weight even with the coins you mentioned. Some better some worse  Wink

Bet ya the Tahiti cores have stood the test of time. It was that nice (384-Bit memory) that gave these bad boys the edge lol

You are absolutely right! CryptonightV7 is way better for 280x's now and it allows better undervolting than with the other coins. There are 2 things however.
First, cards that can run on 1000 core with 0.950mv are of excellent ASIC quality and very rare - may be 1% of all. For example, my XFX's can't be even recognized by the OS  if I undervolt below 1144 mv with 1000 core (well they do, but with several restarts and auto switch to 850 core). My Sapphire's are better, but still require 1050 mv to run with 1000 core. In both cases I got 170-180W from the wall. With 1000 core I get 460 h/s and with 1100 - 540 h/s. So the current profit of all coins now for me is 0. I also mine and stack the coins for future sale.
Second, Monero has 2,2 billion market cap and hardly will make 10 or 20 billion in forseeable future. Of course, who knows, if Bitcoin goes back to 20K this can happen someday. But the new coins have potential of making 10-100 and even 1000 times increase (fresh example zclassic, which made 1000 times in several months). So it is good to have more options. I try to mine as much coins as possible.

EDIT: Surprise, surprise. I just tested with the wattmeter. The XFX cards with 1144 mv are mining XMR with 140W, not 180W as I was expecting provided that 950mv mined with 130W. Equihash is around 200W.
I have a rig with mixed older r9 270/280 cards whats the best way to under volt these
It depends on the coin. Those that are GPU core intensive like the equihash coins will work with less undervolting like 1100 or even 1144 mv (down from 1200-ish by default). Clearly Cryptonight is less GPU intensive, so you may go down to 950mv if the card is with good ASIC quality. I follow this guide:
http://www.overclockers.com/forums/showthread.php/742409-Easy-undervolting-guide-for-79xx-and-R9-280X-cards
Just a warning: When flashing connect only one card to the 16x slot and plug the monitor to the mainboard. If all cards are connected there may be a mistmach in the order of Aitflash and what you see in gpu-z. A friend of mine damaged permanently his cards because of this.

Hello!

OS - Win 10 x64
Cards - 1*280x (3gb)+ 2*1050Ti
Drivers version AMD - Adrenalin 18.6.1
Thaiti.bin downloaded

When you start the miner, only Nvidia cards are detected.

The address of the wallet and the name of the worker have been changed in the file user_config.json.

I tried to run a miner without Nvidia cards, AMD card was not defined.

What are your recommendations for further action?

I have the following situations with my 2 rigs:

Rig 1: 2 R9 390, 1 R9 Fury, 2 GTX 1070, 1 GTX 1060, only recognize AMD platform, and mine good. Windows 10 Pro 1709 Blockchain Driver AMD, and Geforce 391.35 nvidia GPUs.

Rig 2: 3 RX 580, 1 RX 480, 1 RX 570, 1 R9 290, miner closes and restarts in a infinite bucle, sometimes the rig crashes. Windows 10 Pro 1709 Blockchain Driver. GPUs are NOT modded.

Any help thanks. I will update Geforce Drivers for Rig 1, it is so old, and try again.

As for rig1:

To run it on Nvidia test out the "PLATFORM" parameter in the config file. Allowed entries are: "PLATFORM":"AUTO" and "PLATFORM":.
In the 2nd case see that there are no parentesis. Wjen it is "AUTO" the miner will select the driver with the most GPUs in your system. When its a number N it will run on the Nth found OpenCL driver in your system, so you can use that to switch between AMD and Nvidia (note: there can be also Intel drivers out there, so can be that you have to test numbers 0 to 2.)

As for rig 2: can you open command line, go to lolMiner directiory and run lolMiner-144.exe -benchmark=BTG? Then it will try to do a BTG test run on your system. If it failes you can then see the error message without the script restarting the miner infinitely often.

For Rig 1: I try 0 1 2, and always mine AMD only, AMD GPU (390) it is connected to a HDMI dummy. I think that the miner does not detect nvidia GPUs. I update drivers to the last ones and no change.

For Rig 2:

PS C:\Users\*****\Desktop\lolMiner-144_v038_Win64> ./lolMiner-144.exe -benchmark=BTG

its not that crazy thing is its not about the instant profit witch if i did mine xmr it would take me a year to get one lol.

its about the stacking and holding and right now btcz is the best for this using my cards on old algo i was getting close to 1000 a day on my two 7970s and 4930k that would just be doing nothing otherwise.

dnt care about imediate profit thats what my asics are for.
