I mined away happily for 24 hours yesterday on my 6x R9 280x rig with TC@8192, core@1030, mem@1500, -g2, lookup gap 2... giving 370Kh/s per card. 5 HW Errors after 24 hours was acceptable. But this morning I woke up to a DEAD card, and I couldn't even restart the miner, it would just hang.
I'd lower the mem clock to 1450 and see if it stops dying, then work on optimizing the other factors from there. Some cards are just not as strong. I have one that doesn't quite get to 1500.
It's an ASUS DC2T-3GD5, it's mem is clocked by default at 1600... I'm already underclocking it by 100!

Can someone post optimal settings for 290X Sapphire 4GB ?

I could only manage to get to 400KHz with my ref. sapphire 290x Sad interested to see what others can do.
the magic for me was tc=2816*8

Anybody know why this is happening with my 6950?

How much RAM do you have (not GPU ram)? I had this problem when I had too little memory.

4 GB Ram.

I have the same error (and same system memory) :/
Is this the problem?Huh

Thanx

Try a lower thread concurrency. I have a 7870, and my best results were with about half of that.

Drop your concurrency to 1/4th of what it is at, and intensity to 10.  Then, move intensity up, 1 at a time, to 13 or so.  After that, go to 1/2 what your concurrency is now and intensity of 10, and again move up 1 at a time to 13.  Record your hash rate at each point.

That will give you the best concurrency \ intensity combination for your card.

what could be the reason of vertminer 0.5.2 and 0.5.3 not working? the cmd window closes as soon as I run the .bat file. Has anyone had a similar issue?

place this on the last line of your bat file to see what is going wrong:

is there a miner that supports different gpu threads for different cards? for scrypt i'm using the modified version from kalroth, but doesn't seem possible with vtc?

any ideas? thanks in advance Smiley

Hi trying to figure out why im only getting 35khash, when it starts its at 131khash but only for a second, I believe its because the miner is setting my gpu engine clock at min - 300mhz, but I have setx gpu_max_alloc_percent 100 in the bat, and made sure its all caps in the registry.

Thanks

*Edit I did a simple reboot, and thought that fixed the problem as I was up around 150khash for about 5 seconds then it plummeted back down to 35, Heres my current bat settings

Radeon r7 260x

setx gpu_max_alloc_percent 100
vertminer.exe -o stratum+tcp://panda.suprnova.cc:3333 -u x -p x -v 1 -w 256 -I 13 -g 1 --thread-concurrency 4096

hellooooo you all  Tongue

I ve got 250 ks from each XFX 7950  (500 total) has anyone been able to do better? I ve got 4gb memory and running 2 of those cards in the same rig, do you guys think i should use more Gb of ram for the effect?

Im using vert cgminer.

 Huh Wanted a bit more ash from these cards,  Tongue
I've got the same setup, but only one 7950  getting 260khash. I get best value with --shaders 1792 -I 13 --g 2 --w 256
Next thing is overclocking, my voltage is 1.1v, gpu 950 (slower speed actually improved khash, go figure.. ), memory 1350
These settings actually give me very bad khash hashing other scrypt like dogecoin (about 360, should be more)

Ordered new ddr2, will get the in two weeks and report.

thanks for replying, i will try to work the code a bit more and see. As soon my other cards arrive will try my best and will let you all know. Im building 2 rigs and will use MSI and Saphire. Im excited!

could someone please help. this is my command for normal scrypt.

u xxx.xxx -p xxx  --worksize 256 --lookup-gap 2 --thread-concurrency 8192 -g 2 --intensity 12 -Q 0

i have a vtx3d 7870 le tahiti and i get 345khash/s.

could some please tell me how to change it for vertcoin. thanks.



cgminer.exe --scrypt u xxx.xxx -p xxx -v 1 -w 256 -I 12 -g 2 --thread-concurrency 4000

Should get 170 kh now.


just tried that but it doesnt seem to make a difference. what ever i put as a command i can only get 130khash/s.  Huh

tell a lie, i deleted the .conf from the miner and it went to 170. thanks
