Vega64 on RandomX anyone tried it?

Some equihash variants, C29 (C31 for more powerful versions) and MTP are yielding a little something. But it's not brilliant.

Yeah, if my D8P rig does not sell;  I need to find a new purpose for it....

I guess I could try plugging it into RandomX....   What seems to be the algo used with Nvidia nowadays?

So the

 3x 3900x run well
 1x 1920x runs well
 1x 2700   runs okay note it is a 2700 not a 2700x
 1x 3700x runs well
 1x 3600  will get setup tomorrow.

 I will have seven running randomX  and 1 gpu each a vega 56 or a 1660

 3x 3900x
1x. 1920x
1x. 2700x
1x  3700x

All under preform a bit I need to get ram tweaked.

These all have one or two cards

Still pretty quiet and earn about .5 btc in a year most likely they will earn less.

I manged to get it up to 5100  which is less then other but still better then the 1100 it was at.

it may be the ram which is 4 sticks of 16gb 2400 timings are 17 17 17 17   I will play with them.

Some early 1st gen Ryzen/TRs crash on RandomX, it's a known hardware bug. You need to disable Opcache in BIOS.

just got back to main account


yeah I cant seem to get my threadripper do well on randomx.

I don't have access to my main account (philipma1957)
still tossed you some merits with my wife's account



Main reason I am posting is:
I have been trying to run some randomX with my threadripper 1920x and it is fucking with my head  I suspect I need a bios tweak.

is anyone running a threadripper on randomx?

please let me know  tia. Phil

i have 12 running around 52.  Might regret buying them, once eth is done not sure what to do with them.  I was hoping they would have other miners developed by now.

Other subject, just got a RX5700 reference model for fun and its actually quite decent.  I paid 390$ cad and it came with Borderlands 3 which I wanted anyway, after minimal tweaking gets 56mhs and it can go higher but I had a crash or two so I dialed it back.  Its using about 110-115watts core on gpuz so probably 150-160w total.  I'd have to get time to test some memory straps but quick tweaking seems to work injecting them with Eliovp's amdtweakerxl.  I wonder if anyone got it above 60.
edit: Also I find it fun that since bitcointalk is indexed on google or something, I can search "9th bitcointalk" and b00m it pops up

amd threadripper with 24 - 64 (x2 with threads) cores are at ~300W, cpus that consumes power like high end gaming cards.

i watched a youtube video saying ryzen 9 is more than enough for people he knew that uses computer for video/work stuff....he never knew a miner LOL. that 64 cores ain't enough  

Try gulden coin, they switched to cpu mining

I hope they make better models without RTX cores and something with more than 6gb on the lower end.

if that comes to be true in the future then the launch of the new lineup of gpus from nvidia is way sooner than gtx 10 series and rtx 20 series
this release will also make gtx series obsolete and rtx will will available for really attractive prices

i got 4 loving them so far

yes, two rigs getting around 10kh on Loki.  Not really profitable on loki, about 35 cents a day.  I haven't done any memory tweaks yet.

Anyone using ryzen 9 3900x to mine?

i built three rigs.

gear seems pretty good.

about the gaming part..

2080ti earned a premium to be the first true 4k gaming gpu that can pull a good amount of FPS. going 4k, 2080ti and above performance (upcoming GPUs) you should consider a new monitor ultraHD/4k blah blah stuff.

I'm using a 1920x1200 24inch monitor for gaming, a 1920x1200 resolution for 1080ti will play new games at max/ultra settings..but you can and if you push the limits of 1080ti you'll see the difference. (not to mention there is an "enable RTX" on some games)

here is the trick, use the nvidia "custom resolution", i tried (my monitor aspect ratio is 16:10)

2560x1600 - ideal for 1080ti, more clear gaming, this is 1440p for 16:9 aspect ratio
3840x2400 - this is 4k zone, 1080ti gaming got a bit of stickiness to it, i bet 2080ti can do this like 1080ti to a 2560x1600
4096x2560 - this will be the 3080ti area...

3080ti will be the 4k gaming at ~100 and above FPS, specially now that monitors can do 144hz.

some games have a memory fill bar while adjusting settings, 11gb gets filled at 3840x2400, that's why 3080ti gets a 16gb of memory. 2080ti still has 11gb.

custom resolution works, even if you have a 1080p monitor, try playing a 1080p video and try playing a 4k video, generally 4k is still much clearer. the video delivered to you is 4k, the gpu delivered to you is 1440p even at 1080p monitor you'll see the difference.

I wonder if the new gen is a process node jump, or a hybrid of the current product...

I decided to not upgrade to the new gen nvidia gpu... I may give it a go if you see that huge jump as nvidia is typical to give with the higher end '80/ti chips/models.  The 1K+ pricetag on a 2080ti wasn't worth it for me, even as an also gamer that is stuck at home 90% of the time.
