Before answering I just wanted to note that I got 2 mails recently regarding mining on R7 370.
The problem there is that GCN1 does not allow full memory for compute, so this cards fail compatibility check even when 4G are there.
I am currently tuning the memory footprint of 0.5 - hopefully I can get below the limits of this cards so they work then.
Lolliedieb pleeease implement that sh#t temp control.
...
Eg.: if gpuX temp >= Ytemp then stop mining for Z time period then Restart mining.
Hmm - indeed that idea sounds easy to implement. I plan temperature sensor reading for 0.6, so when I got the temps it should be easy to do so. I will give it a try
the worst miner for the reds, it's silly to use your rx580 which is worse than 1060))) the developer sucks, the miner is shit !!!
For a moment I considered to report to mod and delete it, but no, will not do that.
I never claimed of doing an better job then the other miner devs, especially I really respect ewbf, because he did an insanely performant and stable miner for Nvidia GPUs that is a really tough competition (But in fact my 0.5 144/5 implement is hashing 4% faster on my 1080 test sys
)
Anyways. If you think this one is not profitable then just do not use it. I think mining something else and then buy the coin you like is also a perfect way to support your favorite coin, because it keeps price up. And that I say as a miner dev - If you do so I earn nothing, but you do the better deal.
But why so bold language here? Without this miner there would be no 144/5 miner for AMD yet, the 192/7 miner would be extremely slow for 4G cards, for Minex the miner would have only 70% of current performance and for AION there would be no new miner next week, so that would be almost (except for Linux Rocm) Nvidia only, too.
So it may be that the miner is not a top profitable option for AMD - but I still think it adds value to the community and thus has a right to exist.
Regarding performance ... I could now try to argue why 580 is slower then 1060 on Equihash (cache controller structure and amount of local memory per shader cluster), but well... Equi was never best on AMD, Nvidia usually take the sols / watts crown here.
But one question: why so hard personal words against me? Did I do something against you? Try to find someone the is more responsive on this thread among the mining software devs... Good luck.
is there any help to run lol miner as a custom miner in hive os?
I will contact hive team one or two days before release (when I write manuals and so on) to add 0.5. Hope they can do that.
Any update on the 0.5 release?
I currently plan for Sep 25th or 26th - if my brain does not melt before. (Re-) writing 8 mining codes (4 algos in 2 tuning variants each) plus a new stratum (for aion) in only 4 weeks is / was a hell of work xD
