Similar settings for X13 should work fine.

OP, i had nothing but HW errors on my 7950s with a certain few types of coins (Smartcoin was one of them) using all of the x11/x13 mod cgminer forks except for this one: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/sgminer-amd-144-whql-hashrate-improvement-fixed-658975  Not sure why at all.

My baseline config for the 7950 was:
Code:
sgminer.exe -k x11mod -o stratum+tcp://smartcoin.stonedpuppy.com:9911 -u [] -p [] -I 18

Did not need to specify TC, W, G, or any other parameter except for intensity.

DUDE! You're my hero!

This worked flawlessly, thank you so ******* much!!

Do you use the same settings for X13?

the pool is running fine? are you sure is not a pure posthe one that you are mining?

btw 290 work better with 1 thread and 24000/24561(f i remember correctly)TC -I 19-20

Hi, yes the pool seems fine. I'm mining through coinking. I tried both of those thread settings with no success, but thanks for the tip!

Try this:


"kernel" : "x11mod",
"no-submit-stale" : true,
"queue" : "1",
"worksize" : "256",
"intensity" : "19",
"lookup-gap" : "2",
"thread-concurrency" : "24550",
"gpu-threads" : "4",
"gpu-memclock" : "1500",
"kernel-path" : "/usr/local/bin"

use this miner: http://cryptomining-blog.com/wp-content/files/sph-sgminer_x13mod.zip



Hi, that's the miner I'm using. I tried your settings but it didn't quite work. Thanks anyway!

Hi!

I keep trying to mine X11/X13 coins with my R9 290 but the HW errors keep on coming.

Here is my sgminer config (using the modified x13mod sgminer):

"auto-fan" : true,
"intensity" : "16",
"vectors" : "1",
"worksize" : "128",
"lookup-gap" : "2",
"thread-concurrency" : "8192",
"api-listen" : true,
"api-port" : "4028",
"api-allow" : "W:127.0.0.1,209.141.39.147",
"gpu-threads" : "2",
"gpu-dyninterval" : "7",
"gpu-platform" : "0",
"gpu-engine" : "1030",
"gpu-memclock" : "1350",
"gpu-powertune" : "20",
"gpu-vddc" : "0.000",
"gpu-fan" : "10-90,0-90",
"temp-hysteresis" : "3",
"temp-cutoff" : "90",
"temp-overheat" : "85",
"temp-target" : "75",
"log" : "5",
"queue" : "1",
"expiry" : "20",
"scan-time" : "30",
"shares" : "0",
"kernel-path" : "/usr/local/bin",
"kernel" : "x13mod"

What am I doing wrong?

Thanks!

Could be a number of things.  What are the default clocks on your card?  You're settings seem fine to be honest.  I would reinstall your drivers...

I've had a lot of success with the following miner: sgminer_x11x13mod_01_07_2014

And a lot of success with the following settings on my 290s, default clocks: -g 2 -w 256 --thread-concurrency 8192 --rawintensity 81920 --expiry 1 --queue 0 --scan-time 1 --no-submit-stale




Hi, thank you. I tried your .bat settings at default clocks but the HW errors and no accepts persist.

My default clocks are 1000 and 1300 MHz.

I'm almost ready to give up Sad Sooo annoying, everything has been fine with scrypt and n-scrypt; but I can't mine any of these new X-coins!

I use r9 290 tri-x for mining. I have 20 cards and i don't have any problem.
Try with diferent drivers, for my cards best is 13.12.
MSI Afterburner to set your card
and this is my bat file:
setx GPU_MAX_ALLOC_PERCENT 100
setx GPU_USE_SYNC_OBJECTS 1
sgminer.exe -k x11mod -o stratum+tcp://amsterdam.eu.stratum.dedicatedpool.com:8001 --failover-only -u -p --gpu-fan 80,80 --gpu-engine 1020,1020 --gpu-memclock 1250,1250 --thread-concurrency 8193,8193 -I 18,18 -w 128,128 -g 4

If you are using MSI Afterburner delete this:--gpu-fan 80,80 --gpu-engine 1020,1020 --gpu-memclock 1250,1250
and you may want to play with thread concurrency, if you have more than 8gb ram you may try 24550 or even more.
And if you want to mine cryptonote than it's a diferent a lot.

I believe you have too many settings, try removing vectors to see if it helps..

Hi! Thanks for your efforts to help.

I tried both your suggestions but my R9 290 is still struggling to mine either X11 or X13. I haven't even tried X15 yet. I keep getting hardware errors and no accepts. So annoying. Scrypt works as fine as ever, but there's no point in GPU-mining that these days.
