Just posted a optimized x13mod bin file for 7950 (and possibly 280x,290x and other 6xxx,7xxx)
compiled with sgminer 4.1.0 cat 14.6RC2 for those not wanting to upgrade to 14.6 RC2 at

Please post in my thread if this works for you Smiley

Baah... trying your bin for X13 and only getting around 2280KH or so at a total of 9.12MH for my 4x 7950's.  Same rig gets over 14MH on X11 with another modified bin.  

Not to butt in, but isn't that more or less normal?  I was expecting to see about 30% less hashrate on x13 vs. x11.

So it looks like difficulty automatically resets to 0.010 on X13 instead of taking hardcoded password (0.16) ... Is this by design while it's still in Beta?
pw fixed issue already
"pass" : "d=0.008",
works for me in pools section of config

Hmm... Thanks John. Will give it a go.
Dont put that comma in lol.
Basically use the same difficulty as you would for X11.  There's a table in the FAQ page.

No dice 4me... Neither 0.08 nor 0.16 works... Pools automatically switch to difficulty 0.010 for some reason.

This is the same as all the other algorithms.  Our default is 0.01, and it will switch to whatever you passed for password on the first work change (coin switch or new block), typically about 30 seconds.

+10.5 MHs added to x13, wouldn't want you guys to be lonely Smiley

3.45 MHs / 290 card, roughly 4x scrypt. Anyone else can confirm these numbers for their cards so that I know if my config is efficient?

I'm seeing "untracked stratum share"  and "Accepted untracked stratum share" fairly regularly on X13.
Additionally the hashrate graph is showing an average 2.0Mhs quite a bit lower than I'm getting on my end 2.6Mhs.  I'm guessing those Accepted untracked stratum shares are being ignored at stratum end Sad and that's why my rates shown on waffle are low.

Just noticed the HW errors ... backing clock down a bit.

GPU 0 is off because I'm mining Maiacoin X15 with it in another instance of sgminer.

Still getting untracked stratum share after restart with lower clock and HW 0

Notice the missing S in settings LOL it always turns on strikeout grrrrrrr

Well when we find a block the reward will be nice Smiley only 2 miners to divvy it up Smiley

We have X13 configs for 280x and 7950 -> https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.7590653

Don't get too comfortable, I'm there too with my 750Ti's  Grin

Aimed one of my GPUs to x13. So far so good with the latest RC2 drivers and sgminer 5 beta showing 2.5 Mh/s.

Code:
sgminer --algorithm x13mod --hamsi-expand-big 1 --no-adl -I 18 -g 2 -w 128 --thread-concurrency 8192 -o stratum+tcp://uswest.wafflepool.com:3330 -u XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX -p d=0.008 -o stratum+tcp://useast.wafflepool.com:3330 -u XXXXXXXXXXXXXXX -p d=0.008

ok between your reply and some information from Suchmoon, it makes for a clearer picture. I have to disagree with you on the fact that the earnings table has nothing to do with profitability tho. It has everything to do with profitability, no is in business to loss money hence earnings.So what i earn determines if i am profitable or losing money.

On terms of raw profitability and waffle having correct figures to compute, basically tells me that we mine the most profitable coin AT THAT TIME even tho it may have to wait to mature and be sold at as later time possibly for a lower less profitable amount.

My question is do we get paid by what the pool determined to be the most profitable coin at the time we mine it or do we get paid by what work we did at that time but sold at a later time which could result in a even higher profit or in most instances a lower profit especially on new coins as they are sadly mostly pump and dump initially and then die?

My guess is the latter and that i need to come up with a formula that represents profitability at time of mining but sold at a later time at a "undetermined" amount. Because i like others im sure mine coins based off profitability in order to get a positive earnings based off what we see posted on last 24 hours and days,months charts. And that may not be the profit we receive as earnings at so called payout time due to numerous reasons out of our control. This will not be a easy task as the variables are complex.

This next question applies to any one who has mined or is currently mining.Any ideas or tools or even formulas you use to determine profitability at time of mining and sold at a later time to more accurately get a  more "true" profitability prediction or heck even actual profitability based off those complex variables?

Earnings table is a terrible way to look at profitability (for all the reasons mentioned before).

You get paid based on actual results.  If we mine a coin, and the price goes down/up before it matures and we sell it, you end up getting the resulting earnings (higher or lower), this is why everything on the site for unconverted coins is marked "estimated".

If you're looking for a good way to judge the profitability, either mine for a reasonable amount of time (24-48hrs), with a constant hashrate, and just divide the earnings by speed.  Or just look at our stats page, as that is exactly what we do using the pool as a whole.

Need announce X13 beta on stats pages Smiley

We need more testers on X13, currently only 2 miners (5.5Mhs+2.6Mhs)

And earnings tracking please!
The two of us have not yet found a block, if you look at time stamps on the blocks showing they are prior to announce.

BTW what cards are u using? Please post configs on https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/x11mod-x13mod-x15-and-catalyst-147-rc-666252
so people can get started quickly Smiley
