Topic: Primecoin GPU miner: 9.1 CPD on a 280x / pool / 2% dev.fee - page 11. (Read 100955 times)
any new version with speed increase?Also want to know if the cpd times we are getting depends on the 7ch?
Which pool are you going to use?
We would prefer to announce it when everything is set up. 
3rd orphaned block found... 3 in a row... is this unluck or something else? 2 x block orphaned with version 2.00 + 1 x block orphaned with 2.02 right after the other two
There's definitely some luck involved, but it also might be sub-par internet connection.Anyway, it look's like we have some progress with a pool. Once ready, it should remedy your unluck.
Which pool are you going to use?
I run the free version. Just downloaded and started the .bat file. Is that all to it? It is running by the looks of it. Anyway, how do I see the number of connections on the wallet, because I cannot have the wallet running at the same time right? (It asked me to close the wallet when I tried to start it the first time).
More technical. How does the miner know how to connect to the rcp-port? I have a custom user/pass combo. And how does it know to what address in the wallet to put the block money? Nothing in the bat-file points to rcp/wallet/me.
Did I miss something and am I mining so my eventual block will be gone forever?

I'm going to go out on a limb and assume you have only 8 connections on a wallet at any given time. If you are really lucky 9? if so then i think your problem may lay with you needing to forward ports from your router..Run a proper client (official client) and tell us how many connections it says you have after 2 hours of running it please and we can prolly help you with the rest if you do only have 8 connections.
You must however have access to the router in some way because if you are getting orphans you may need to forward ports to get way more connections or add some nodes in your Primecoin.conf to communicate with because sub par Internet i'snt really a huge factor in orphans as long as when you finally broadcast the block to your circle of connections that they distribute it fast. Also with only 8 connections your chance of it being fast is limited greatly.
im having 8 connections only, i cant have access to my router cause the admin access is blocked by my ISP and only them can remotelly access it thru cable. I have a LAN connection right straight from my ISP DSL router
you think Catalyst 14.4 wont be able to recognize 6 x GPU under Windows 8 with the motherboard ASRock H81 BTC Pro?
It'll probably find the 5th one, but not the 6th.This thread have a modified 13.12 version to detect all 6 x GPU but unfortunatelly your XPM miner only work with 14.3+ ... is there any other workarround?

Can you give us a hint at what pool you are working with at least? So if they require any registration or anything we can prepare?

great!,i found 5 blocks in less than 24 hours
will you continue solo mining support ?
Absolutely. 3rd orphaned block found... 3 in a row... is this unluck or something else? 2 x block orphaned with version 2.00 + 1 x block orphaned with 2.02 right after the other two

Also getting the same error. The only other version I have that runs is 1.04. Is there a difference? Also, when I run the 280x server bat from version 2.04, it still says version 2.02. Is this OK?
There's no 2.04 version yet. The latest one is 2.02. prime can you reupload with proper binary? i also get the error below when i use client from 2.04 folder... so for now i'm using client from previous versions and i suppose it's ok?
"The application was unable to start correctly (0xc000007b). Click OK to close the application."

use the primegpu file from previous version should be a 16mb file that 1 is 12mb

it will be a good idea for the miner to take a static xpm adress so we can trace our earnings easier

Video cards: 2 x R9 280x MSI Gaming OC + 4 x R9 280x Sapphire TOXIC (Core 1080 / Mem 1500)
CPU: Intel i7 4770k
CPD: 10.16 -cpuusage=5 (if i use 9 or more i get lower CPDs)
Testing now with Core 1100 / Mem 1300... will report tomorrow
Please share with us how you managed to run 6 cards with Catalyst 14.3+?CPU: Intel i7 4770k
CPD: 10.16 -cpuusage=5 (if i use 9 or more i get lower CPDs)
Testing now with Core 1100 / Mem 1300... will report tomorrow
my bad, i have 4 cards R9 280x.... but still have two free R9 280x ready to plug it to my ASRock H81 BTC Pro motherboard, just waiting for the PCI-E cables to get delivered... you think Catalyst 14.4 wont be able to recognize 6 x GPU under Windows 8 with the motherboard ASRock H81 BTC Pro?
After having run for 5~7 minutes, I found a block.
What would be the best strategy ? Continue to run and possibly finding nothing or turn off the soft and move to something else ?
