1. The xIntensity has to be 512 or 1024 or 2048.
2. The work size has to be 64.
3. "gpu-threads" has to be 1.
4. run the sgminer, a .bin file will be created. Make a note of the file name of the .bin file and delete it.
5. change the file name of the .bin comes with the download to the .bin file name just created.

You should be able to mine now.

Thank you! I think I got it to work now @ 11 Mhs Cheesy

Hi folks,

I am recently playing with an Asus R9 280X to test altcoin mining performance using the kernel from http://cryptomining-blog.com/4819-new-sgminer-with-optimized-quark-and-qubit-kernels/

However, I am only getting 2.4Mhs for quarkcoin instead of 11Mhs. I also tested scrypt, my speed was 600khs. I would like to know what catalyst I should be using and amd developer suite, etc.

I currently installed 14.12 Catalyst Omega and below is my config:

"nfactor" : "10",
"xintensity" : "18",
"lookup-gap" : "2",
"worksize" : "256",
"thread-concurrency" : "8192",
"gpu-engine" : "1070",
"gpu-memclock" : "1600",
"gpu-fan" : "30-65",
"gpu-powertune" : "0",
"temp-cutoff" : "90",
"temp-overheat" : "75",
"temp-target" : "65",
"gpu-threads" : "2",
"auto-fan" : true,
"auto-gpu" : true,
"queue" : "1",
"api-listen" : "true"

Thanks for your help.
