So there is no improvement in hbcc? I can take 6000 with two vega 56 , but now I insert other vega in the rig and not working anymore, only 1800.

I try removing the vega, but always 1800 now.

I am unable to make bug working for 3000, I will try to formatting windows.

In this post there is improvment o picture are fake?

Were you getting 6000H/s poolside/accepted shares, or just in the miner? I think everyone with Vega rigs will be interested if you can replicate 3000h/s per Vega poolside and reliably! best of luck!

I make some test I reach 3000 hash on monero7 with hbcc on and castxmr 1.2.5 , anyone same experience ? I have now issue I m unable to get 3000 hashrate when I put another vega in the rig.

Bug somewhere I'd say - Vega should get you c.2000 on Monero7, give or take. Mine's lower for stability and heat reasons, but higher than 2500 can't be sustainable/at all stable in a multi-card rig.

If there is enough interest, I will update to the newest xmr-stak version which is nicehash compatible :-)

No offense, but there is no need to pay anything. Go see the vega thread, its a driver issue. simply disable and re-enable the vega on startup and forget HBCC. procedure to automate that is there too.

Well, I wanted to buy it for the 1 XMR, that's fair price for me since I don't have any Vega... I was only curious. But this Mythic magic code explained everything Cheesy

Yeah maybe, but your lines are not dynamic, slower, have no handling against failure and are not optimised against bsod.

Lets see how it looks on pool side, but I'd like to thank the OP for the software, and I am definitely going to gladly pay the 1% fee with no regrets. Great job man!

P.S. Is it possible to somehow add a feature to monitor the GPU/HBM2 temperatures?

I will also verify it works, thanks for taking the time to make this so I didn't have to myself. Also gladly willing to use it and pay 1% dev fee. Keep up the good work and the Trojans out of it and all will be well in the world.

Guys, I can confirm the script activates HBCC (tested it on 4 Vegas 64). I think it is truly impressive what HBCCACTIVATE has done and he deserves the devfee. I also think it would not be fair to share it publicly as he clearly spent a lot of time on it.

Additionally, I can confirm, i have extracted the script to work with any miner. However, there is one more thing to be said, the script contains hidden DLL library that does the actual job which cannot be decompiled properly and may contain virus (even though it is unlikely).

If you are really into having the script to run with any miner, i appreciate the XMR donations here (at least i will have my day payed): 4ApEdi82fFeTkNzk9MkE8TC21FHzbfBjyjX2v6mnGAGHC8bvxq5KJL2Fu8MXCm6ihha8af9jRWe8LE6 Md8HkmziJKj9xios

However, it would be nicer from you to give credit to HBCCACTIVATE.

My job is finished, signing out...

I wouldnt mind to play for the HBCC activator if it was a standalone file that could allow us to mine with any miner...

I offered the program as a standalone version a few days ago. There were only comments which said that it is scam and there wasn't anyone interested.
So the price is 1 xmr for the standalone version for each miner.

Why 1 xmr? -> If you have a rig of 8 Vega gpus and can only use 4 gpus without my tool you have 4 vegas with a hashrate of about 1300 instead of 1900. The difference is 600. 600 x 4 = 2400 H/s which you will gain with my software. Result: You will generate more than one xmr more in a month. So I think 1 xmr is a fair price for the standalone version. PM me if you are interested.

That logic though Roll Eyes

Good idea. Now everything should be ok.

From my perspective, I can confirm the script is not a virus and should be enabling HBCC. Let's try it out. It's a powershell!

Now Windows defender reports Trojan:Win32/Fuerboss.C!cl in HBCC-Activator.zip
I have to admit that Virustotal reports no threats in it... at least at the moment

That happened to me too when I went to install it on another rig. Both zip and bin check out clean in Virustotal.

Worst they can do is direct all the hashpower to themselves, which they could do anyway with a binary - no need for a trojan.

But I wouldn't run on a machine you use for anything else until this is cleared up. For a mining rig, again, can't see the harm - I'll notice if extra hash is stolen at the pool and promptly report (as would others) - so I don't see a real incentive for the dev to do anything nefarious.

So the thing is real deal?

Seems to work well - from what I can tell it automates the process of manually toggling the HBCC slider. Much faster (and MUCH easier) than doing it manually. As long as both tools are together, the HBCC-activator runs first, the screen flashes a few times, and then it calls the miner.

no you can use the hbcc enabler only with the his miner, probably a checksum verification...but it's works, i have tester in my rig of 4 vega but not in TLS

Looks good, dev fee for your address is completly fine, but I think GNU GPL say that you have to give all source codes if you release it to the public.

yeah highly doubtful. HBCC is not something XMR-STAK can control directly so I don't see....oh wait dev fee is changed. so its just a recompiled xmrstak with a changed dev fee ? I really dont see hbcc problem solving here at all. how much ram do you have anyway

Xmr-stak does not do the trick... i run a simple call of xmr-stack after activating hbcc.
I will reupload the tool after checking the license.

It would help to gain trust for your solution if you could attach screenshot with results from xmr-stak-amd (connection length, submited shares, error report, hashrate on the pool side, etc..).

Anyway, i suspect that the issue has been resolved by the Fall Creators update with 17.10.2 AMD driver. Can anyone confirm my hypothesis? Unfortunately, i don't have physical access to my rigs ATM.

The program in the forked repo is not the same as presented in video on youtube. If you search for the added console output at the beginning (for example "HBCC will be activated"), you will find 0 results. Since it is asking for admin permissions, it is probably changing registry.

Its working on all of my Vega rigs. I uploaded the source code of the modified xmr-stak.
The part which activates hbcc and calls the miner is not open source.

If the license of xmr-stack does not allow this, I will delete it. Please let me know.

Looks good, dev fee for your address is completly fine, but I think GNU GPL say that you have to give all source codes if you release it to the public.

That's correct - the OP is violating the rights of the copyright holder by distributing this binary without the added code.

@l1xx As OP stated the rest of his code is closed source. I don't care about devfee.

@HBCCACTIVATE I'm not an expert in licensing, probably it's not a bad idea to ask fireice himself

Please commit all of your changes. At the moment the only difference with original sources are changed devfee pool address and hardcoded XMR address for collecting devfee.
Pretty harmful, but useless.

Compare original executor.cpp and modified executor.h
At the moment it looks very suspicious. Provide us please with more info.

um, whats wrong with changing the dev fee address to his address, as long as the rest of the programm works as intended?

We do not really care who gets the 1% fee, as long all cards are hashing at full speed. The question is - is it working as intended and is this the only difference to the original program?

Thank you for the hint. I added a link to the source code.

Hi,

i found a way to enable HBCC on more than 4 Vega cards and implemented it in a tool for you.
In this thread I will offer you two tools: HBCC-Activator and a modified version of xmr-stak.
Due to license restrictions I am not able to offer you both tools in one .exe file and have to offer both tools as a standalone version.

The modified version of xmr-stak-amd is open source amd will just mine for you with regular hbcc-settings. The source code of the modified version is uploaded on github.

The HBCC-Activator is close source and activates HBCC on all of your Vega cards. I use it on two of my rigs with 8 Vega cards each, 8 gb system memory and 100gb virtual memory. If you do not want HBCC-Activator to throw errors, you have to download it and save it in the same directory as the executable of the xmr-stak-amd-miner (modified version) and use this miner. <- License restriction.

Requirements:
- Settings like described here: https://www.reddit.com/r/MoneroMining/comments/74hjqn/monero_and_vega_the_definitive_guide/
- local admin privileges
- A mining rig with Vega 64 / 56 gpus

Recommendations:
- Use overdriventool for optimal automation!
- Create a scheduled task to run my tool after system startup
or: create a Batch-File to run this tool as administrator and dactivate the uac (not really recommended)

Known issues:
- TLS-Connection of the miner is not working!
