Topic: Primecoin GPU miner: 9.1 CPD on a 280x / pool / 2% dev.fee - page 29. (Read 100962 times)
Great news...glad you sorted that out.
I just got my new rig up and mining.
I have a brand new ASUS R9280X-DC2T-3GD5
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814121803
Currently not over clocked everything is at stock.
My CPU is a I7 4770K
CPU Usage 8-12%
Primecoin GPU miner ver. 1.03
-----------------------------
Mining time: 1.22 hours
Est. Average Chains Per Day (CPD): 1.01
Est. Spot Chains Per Day (CPD): 1.03
Pass: 1579
GPU #0 time: 279
10-ch found: 0 expected: 0.052
blocks found: 0 expected: 0.022
A few things i noticed is my GPU clock MHZ is auto dropping to 970 rather than staying at 1070. Is this normal?
Im also running at 95C for the GPU. seems right for it but not sure. I haven't had a good GPU in a few years.
Are my numbers correct for what i have? Seems low compared to other peoples setups.
Any advice would be great.
Thanks

Sounds like ur gpu is down clocking to base clocks due to temp 95oC is way to hot. My guess is ur fan is running to slow and the card is probably in a case (which isnt typically an issue with single card assuming u setup the case right) Try keep the card below 70oC 60-70% fan should do that just fine. Setting cpuusage=9 should also improve ur CPD. Once u get ur temps under control u can try a moderate oc on the gpu to further improve ur CPD. As other users have stated tho stability over a tiny improvement of the stats.
I found the problem
one of the fans on the GPU wasn't spinning a wire had jammed it up.
As soon i freed it. Temps down to 73C solid with a little OC and back to 1.41 chains / day.
Still think a pool is a good idea..Thats 8 290x on that pool for 22 hours with claymores, and i must say, amazing new miner,......"WISH IT WAS SOLO" so i cant wait for pgpu's answer to claymores pool miner..it should be epic
traitor! any ways still is slower and that wont be all yours cause of the dev fee that will always be there where the other is a 1 time
To clarify a point of fact, with regard to the three miners now available, the developer (jonpry) of the NVidia one has stated that he will open source his -- which will obviously entail a reduction or elimination of the dev fee -- once the total amount collected from developer fees equals the bounty he initially offered as a target for releasing the code.
So, no, the dev fee will not always be there, provided the target is met.
Claymore has enabled a "no fee" option on his, I believe.
It actually seems like a very nice model. I'm watching it with interest - I would consider adopting it for things I release in the future if it works out well. Compared to a "sale" model, a dev fee has less risk for the people who use the miner and more risk for the developer, but enables more people to test out the software and see if they want to use it.

But thats what i'm saying..the miner is super fast but its on a pool and look at the payout for 9 blocks its found another 2 blocks and ive never found that many blocks with pgpu so im extremly excited to see their performance increase. btw claymores is optimized for 290x hence how well its doing. Im hating how raped im getting mining to a pool and that is my point
still not beating me and with all the coin dumping ill take the tx fees
XPM Block rewards continue to drop...nice

3 blocks in 12hrs with 3 7970 2 290x

Primegpu miner is still faster, but the other miner is pretty close.
I mine about 2 blocks every 24 hours with just one 7970.

Thanks,
I thought 90C sounded hot.
Ill throw in some more 120mm fans and get some more air flowing.
Where do i add the CPUUSAGE=9?

you need something for fan and temp control
MSI Afterburner will help you

I haven't pass 62C on an ambient air of 87F with an Arctic Cooling Accelero Extreme 7970 gpu cooler on my MSI Twin Frozr III HD7970 OC BE.
Is your card reference design or a twin fan cooler?
what kind dont matter i buy nothing but ref models as they dont blow hot air on the pcb which coming from a guy who repairs cards is a bad thing as it expands and contracts the pcb more leading to solder lifting off the pads
i use ref cause it takes all heat away from the card and blows it out only thing is the blower fan is louder than non but they are miners in a place where im not worried about noise anyways saying that my temps are still below 70c

right click on gpu server icon, properties, in target add -cpuusage=9 at the end

that wont help much u need to have your fan set not on auto anything over 80c is still too hot you will kill the card
