Topic: SRBMiner Cryptonight AMD GPU Miner V1.9.3 - native algo switching - page 180. (Read 237261 times)

Is it ok not to switch in the latest version? I use 1.6.4, rx 580 8 gb. my cclock is 1200 and my mclock is 1900. intensity 58 worksize 8 threads 2. is my config ok guys for this version?

What is wrong kernel 2 is set?
... solved with newer driver but rig hangs badly on start, other miners working very bad (no 3d) so I am backing to my old driver.

Second is true, third is not, first says you know I am right (as I am quiet sure you are not bad at math).

I am bad at math and my mom told me not to listen to strangers, sorry.  

To start, you are entitled to a fair fee. Also, you decide what is fair and if we don't like it we can stop using your miner. Which some of us will do, if they feel they are not treated fairly.
So, to check fairness I have made some calculations in Excel.
- when you mine exactly 24 hours, or 86400 seconds, you get 728 devfee seconds, which is 0,8426%, so a bit less than what Dok is saying in the post I quoted. Seems absolutely fair.
- when you stop just before the last devfee, you cheat it down to 0,7783%.
- however, when you stop just after a mining fee was done, let's say just after the 5th, it is 0,8854%
- and this is higher just after the 4th, 3rd, ... rising to a whopping 6,22% just after the 1st devfee which started this debate
So, what I did was average it all out. I assumed the 1st mining fee to be collected in the 15th minute, the second in the 120th minute and then every 120th minute.
When you assume that over all miners stopping in the first 24 hours, their is an even distribution (which I think it is not, I think it is weighted in the first half), the average fee collected then turns out to be 0,9365%. And that's more than 0,85% as promised.
When you look at miners that mine 12 hours or less, the average is even 1,07%.
To get the 24 hour average to 0,85%, mining fee should be 51 seconds and not 56, the average over 12 hours is then 0,93%. The only way to get that more equal is to do more frequent devfee mining, which would hurt us all.
All other options I can think of are difficult to implement
- centrally register start and end time of miners (put it on a blockchain  )
- mine to a central wallet owned by Dok and get paid out the exact 99,15% of what is mined
So then Dok, would you consider it fair to lower the 56 seconds some more to get the average over 24 hours to the promised 0,85%?

algo mox ?
every share invalid?
pool?

recheck again. work fine

other trouble. bad share on r9 290(x) card. kernel 2 too
Pool rejected result 0x0002013C (rejected share: invalid result)

Next version willl auto select kernel2 for these cards, so you dont have to set it by hand.

Thanks. It works now.

Use kernel 2 set up gpus in gpu_conf, there is an example on the first page

I can't get the newest miner 1.6.5 to work. You can see the error below. Previous versions including 1.6.4 work fine.
I am using some older cards, Tahiti, and AMD driver 18.3.4.

Press any key to continue . . .

Give more info like logs and screenshots if you want help.

It's working here:

please add miner version to API output also

1.6.5 dont work on mox after devfee
need to restart miner

Hi, I have mining with adrenaline 18.5.1 driver version, is this ok? Because nanopool doesn't show the hashrate very acurate.

It's EXACTLY what my tools are doing since more than 2 years ...

Come on guys... you’re arguing over pennies here.  SRB already has one of the lowest Dev fees around, and is the best CN mining program out there to me.  So, either live with the way the program works, or use a different program.

I could make that random but i know that still won't satisfy these guys, and it also increases the chance of loosing a devfee mining session.

You can't restart miner 24 times.  There is an overhead in getting the kernels loaded to GPU, connecting to pool, getting work and submitting result.

Dok changed the first mining fee session.  Unless people are using autoswitch algos/apis this shouldn't be problem (assuming you're not cheating the dev fee).

How about a random dev fee in first session? Is that difficult to implement as well. There are couple of miners that do that.

you dont have to have access to code because you got info on the screen when the devfee is mined. You know exactly when and how long does it mine. Some miners dont show you even this.
