use this to get memory info

i would mod the bios with at least the 1500 strap
to get those extra hashes

First off, can't thank you enough for your contributions to the community. nvOC was a huge help for me to get my Nvidia cards up and running.

I am wondering why in this version you have set numbers for core and memory clocks? Also why there is no option to limit the power? Ive been trying to figure out a way to limit power for quite a while.

Also, there any way to find out what type of memory my gpu has within this os? I would rather not flash the cards but if thats the only way than I'll do it.

  SUCCESS 

I have successfully created another rig with 5 AMD cards and achieved the same speed as windows!

I modded all 5 cards bios's again and this time hard set my clocks and even went ahead and undervolted them slightly while I was in there.

Results? I am actually 5 MH/s average OVER my Win10 build.

Thank you FullZero for help and ideas...

i added this to the OP!

When I typed password, ubuntu asking me again and again it

Okay here we go

to get amd memory info this works great https://github.com/sling00/amdmeminfo

first off usb choices

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00T61JM4E/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o03_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

i have both of these and tested them and IN MY ENVIRONMENT it hasnt been the best choice

so i use this drive and its awesome! it loads faster for me and is stable

now imaging the drives i use etcher because its just simple and plain easy to use. plus it also does drive checks it can be found here

https://etcher.io/

when setting up the onebash first thing is first i dont cpu mine. all of my miners have slow dual core intel cpus so its just meh to even try
with that i do use a SRR which if you dont have one you are not living right go here https://shop.simplemining.net/ and get one

if you dont have an SRR then you dont need this

now somewhere before plusCPU add this line


example http://imgur.com/JbQLcF4

then move down in the onebash file to right before plusCPU == YES add this right before it


example http://imgur.com/O6aQ7US

before saving make sure you change your address and pools around!! then save the file

here is mine if it helps  https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B0614dRHRS0RNXU0STR0U1hWWlE/view?usp=sharing

now before you pull out the usb you need to add in this file in the same section as onebash https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B0614dRHRS0RLWgtOS1OSlV6dDA/view?usp=sharing
with this file you have to edit it just like the onebash file for it to be able to work with your SRR
edit these line


make sure its a 1 to enable it. change the serial number to match up to the one you have and make sure the slot number is correct

example here http://imgur.com/uVjeV2a


i use custom bios on all of my rx cards i copy straps and bump up the memory just a little get a solid 25 mhs all the time even when dual mining
also i use this https://github.com/sling00/amdmeminfo to find out info about the cards i have and its easy to install

i use an overdrive setting of 10 tried 15 nothing changed and 18 crashed the system
so 10-15 did nothing for me and that was with a core lock level of 7 moved to 3 for now
the fan setting is at 230

Over the next few weeks ill keep testing the system with different settings to see if i can find a sweet spot
also ill keep the posted updated with anything new i find worth sharing

thanks fullzero for a nice mining experience with this OS

just some pictures of the rig and it mining

Why not modify oneBash to be like the one for Linux?

Have individual card settings?

I don't anybody that mines with AMD that hasn't modified the straps in the bios and then uses some OC tool to set the clocks.

So instead of

# select level: to see supported clocks scroll to the top of the mining process
__CORE_OVERCLOCK_LEVEL=7   # for ETH use lowest without decreasing the hashrate / Highest for ZEC
MEMORY_OVERCLOCK_LEVEL=2   # use highest level

How about -

INDIVIDUAL_CLOCKS="YES"         # YES NO
 
# Set individual clocks here if INDIVIDUAL_CLOCKS="YES"
__CORE_OVERCLOCK_0=100
MEMORY_OVERCLOCK_0=1000
 
__CORE_OVERCLOCK_1=100
MEMORY_OVERCLOCK_1=350
 
__CORE_OVERCLOCK_2=100
MEMORY_OVERCLOCK_2=100
 
__CORE_OVERCLOCK_3=100
MEMORY_OVERCLOCK_3=100
 
__CORE_OVERCLOCK_4=100
MEMORY_OVERCLOCK_4=100
 
__CORE_OVERCLOCK_5=100
MEMORY_OVERCLOCK_5=100
 
__CORE_OVERCLOCK_6=100
MEMORY_OVERCLOCK_6=100
 
__CORE_OVERCLOCK_7=100
MEMORY_OVERCLOCK_7=100
 
__CORE_OVERCLOCK_8=100
MEMORY_OVERCLOCK_8=100
 
__CORE_OVERCLOCK_9=100

Just asking

Just launched second rxOC rig with 4 AMD's.

Exact same issue!

Doing some testing and editing of oneBash....I'll let ya know how it goes

that's the question that may kill gpu mining. the point of gpus mining was to be able to decentralize mining, actually btc mining is more accessible than gpus mining. There is a solution to easy oc with ubuntu as ethos and this have the functionality. however it's not released publicly. Asics or PoS.

I am currently mining with an Ubuntu Server

Good Morning FullZero -
I apoligize for the long post but I need to get it all in here

My first working mining rxOC AMD rig is up and running.

I want to ask some questions about clock settings.

Question is easy. How do I tune Linux version to get speeds near Windows?

As a base line I am dual mining Claymore ETH/SIA at -dcri 12

My cards are as follows -

GPU #0: Hawaii, 7991 MB available, 40 compute units (R9 390)
GPU #1: Ellesmere, 4050 MB available, 36 compute units (RX 570)
GPU #2: Ellesmere, 4050 MB available, 32 compute units (RX 470)

The 2 RX's have been bios modded and under windows 10 they run app. like this -

ETH: GPU0 29.897 Mh/s, GPU1 27.030 Mh/s, GPU2 27.096 Mh/s

I get those speeds by using Trixx and setting the following -

GPU #0: Hawaii, 7991 MB available, 40 compute units (R9 390) - 1100/1500
GPU #1: Ellesmere, 4050 MB available, 36 compute units (RX 570) - 1140/1900
GPU #2: Ellesmere, 4050 MB available, 32 compute units (RX 470) - 1140/1880

OK thats my stuff and how it runs on Windows...Now lets talk Linux

Using rxOC V12 with Parallax's mod
Dual mining ETH/SIA Claymore 9.5 -dcri 12

Same cards as above -

MY CURRENT SPEED WITH THE FOLLOWING SETTINGS -

ETH: GPU0 24.910 Mh/s, GPU1 24.086 Mh/s, GPU2 25.116 Mh/s


My oneBASH is currently set as follows -

 
PERFORMANCE_LEVEL="HIGH"        # HIGH LOW
 
# select level: to see supported clocks scroll to the top of the mining process
__CORE_OVERCLOCK_LEVEL=4   # for ETH use lowest without decreasing the hashrate / Highest for ZEC
MEMORY_OVERCLOCK_LEVEL=7   # use highest level
 
OVERDRIVE="NO"                  # YES NO  <---LOCKS UP WHEN I TURN THIS ON

I don't have 480s anymore I have all 470s
And have no issues with my custom bios

You can change the hostname of the computer that TeamViewer uses without changing the hostname itself
When you sign in with your account it gives an option to add this computer that's when you change the hostname

Teamviewer. Now I have 3 m1-desktops. Teamviewer having an issue with that. Or perhaps I am using TeamViewer wrong..

Just what I was looking for

One question though, does that driver cause any problems with modded bios on the rx 480?

Why can't the rigs all be called that?
What issue are you having?

Ok I am converting all rigs to this now and ran into an issue. All rigs cannot be called m1-desktop!

How can I change the hostname so all your scripts still work?

m2-desktop, etc...?

LOL...

very customizable this rxOC and nvOC

at the same time, for a Linux newbie,  great way to play and learn Linux

thumbs up to fullzero

okay been trying to test this OS
but the love of me i cant get it to stop rebooting
it comes up with a popup says HI m1, you have a file open what would you like to do.... bam reboot

im a moron i left the SRR connected to the motherboard so it kept restarting it because it wasnt getting the signal..

I'm not sure if anyone is aware of this, but the motherboards that fullzero lists are all intel motherboards.
If anyone was wondering though, I have a MSI 970A SLI Krait Edition AMD motherboard and an Athlon II CPU and I got fed up with ethOS, so I gave rxOC a shot.  I can confirm this works with 4 GPUs.

by the way fullzero, thanks for nvOC and rxOC.  Amazing work!
