When you see that it fall down again just Decrese CoreClock in steps by 2 untill it stays around your highest peak. GL 

yes it has thanks! 323, 350, 350, 350. I'm up to 1045 on the clock, how much higher can i go safely?

edit:
so, i stopped it and turned it back on to return to 280 speeds :/

Lower your Coreclock to stock (1020) and work UP from there in steps of 5,does it help?

i changed my settings to match your concurrency, memclock and engine - now 1 card is on 0, another on 277 and the other 2 on 366. - getting some hw errors tho :S

Odd I use the MSI R9 280X with

Display driver       : 9.14.10.01001, Catalyst 13.12
BIOS                 : 015.041.000.000

((CGminer)) -v 1 -w 256 -I 13 -g 2 --lookup-gap 2 --gpu-powertune -20 --temp-target 70 --temp-overheat 80 --temp-cutoff 90 --gpu-memclock 1500 --gpu-engine 1082 --thread-concurrency 8191

And they put out 381-383

Thanks for these settings! Getting 349KH/s on my 7970. I slighty changed the clock and mem speeds to get a bit more out of it. happy now

setx GPU_MAX_ALLOC_PERCENT 200
C:\minervert\cgminer.exe --scrypt -o stratum+tcp://vtc.kilovolt.co.uk:3333 -u saitek1900.1 -p x -d 0 -w 256 -I 13 -g 2 --lookup-gap 2 --gpu-engine 1022 --gpu-powertune -20 --gpu-memclock 1493 --thread-concurrency 8193

Hey guys, i'm pretty new to this and need some help please ^_^
I have 4x MSI R9 280x and am using vertminer, can't quite seem to get my settings right - either hardware errors or a card disabling - I understand we get 50% of our hashing power compared to other coins, i was getting around 780 per card on Doge, can't seem to get over 280 here without any errors :/

When i load vertminer i get a message saying error in confiq file, start miner with -T to see error.

here is my config file:

{
"pools" : [
    {
        "url" : "stratum+tcp://eu.bitcrush.info:3444",
        "user" : "user.worker",
        "pass" : "pass"
    },
    {
        "url" : "stratum+tcp://eu.bitcrush.info:3444",
        "user" : "user.worker",
        "pass" : "pass"
    }
]
,
"intensity" : "12",
"vectors" : "1",
"worksize" : "256",
"kernel" : "scrypt",
"lookup-gap" : "2",
"thread-concurrency" : "10000",
"shaders" : "0",
"gpu-engine" : "1070",
"gpu-fan" : "65-85",
"gpu-memclock" : "1500",
"gpu-memdiff" : "0",
"gpu-powertune" : "20",
"gpu-vddc" : "0.000",
"temp-cutoff" : "85",
"temp-overheat" : "80",
"temp-target" : "75",
"gpu-dyninterval" : "7",
"gpu-platform" : "0",
"gpu-threads" : "2",
"kernel-path" : "/usr/local/bin"
}

currently this gives me 210-250 on the 4 cards.

Help muchly appreciated guys, thank you in advance

edit: i've been playing around with intensity, thread concurrency, gpu engine, memclock - is that right?

Did you even bother to read the first page? 

so I see alot of people runing cgminer where did you get that from, I installed from git and got vertminer (running ubuntu) can anyone point me into the direction of cgminer ?

also I get an error at gpu engine and memclock, they're not supported as it seems...

Hey guys, I am testing the wallet, can anyone spare 0.00000001 VTC ? VkrFwc2eZ7UyEBxPS422zBSFVrMgUf77cH

Hi. Did you downloaded the modded cgminer?
Whats settings are you using?

I have a laptop with i5 and ati radeon. What would be the best way to mine? I do 9 kh right now. Is that all I can do with the laptop?

What other configs should I try without burning my laptop?

I am only starting now with VTC VfL8SXEHq9QArkwhpKeHL8T5GBVhqCzJ5h so appreciate any help. Thanks

not for me, hashrate shown is ~200 kh/s with those flags and default settings in afterburner, but all I'm getting is a rapidly increasing number of HW and no accepted shares. Also overclocking this just got me a bluescreen
I'm using the modyfied cgminer from the main thread

Hi, I have Asus R9 280x Dc2t

Card is underclocked from 1070 to 970 and from 6400 memory to 6200 and iam having about 335Kh/s and no HW errors! With these settings:

setx GPU_MAX_ALLOC_PERCENT 200
(here you copy past what you find at "getting started" in any pool your choose) --thread-concurrency 8192 --intensity 13 -g 2


I was getting HW errors all the time with anything i tried until i put max alloc to 200. Then HW stoped and everything works as supoused. It does sligthy above 50% of what i get in normal CGminer on other altcoin pools.

- VERY IMPORTANT (at least for r9 280x) as someone allready mentioned is setx GPU_MAX_ALLOC_PERCENT 200 (hope you know where to copy/paste it)
- it is modified Cgminer, you are gona have 50% of normal Kh/s and it is supoused to be like that.
- my card is underclocked to drain less power, with higher settings you are gona get higher hash rating.

Can someone please upload the older version of the miners. I think thats why all the new people to vertcoin are having problems!!!

Hi!
Would you mind leaving a step by step tutorial? I really dont know what im doing wrong (im into mining for a pretty long time now, but i cant get this one to work). I use the R9 280x aswell, but it looks like i forgot something... whenever i open the application, the cmd window closes almost instantly :S
Any help would be much appreciated!

Copy from the main thread:

Hi, just so you're aware, I'm getting around 100kh/s less with this version compared to 0.5.2 on 280X (both of them)!

My config is the same:

del *.bin
setx GPU_MAX_ALLOC_PERCENT 100
setx GPU_USE_SYNC_OBJECTS 1
vertminer.exe --scrypt-vert -o stratum+tcp://vtcpool.co.uk:3333 -u x -p x --lookup-gap 2 --thread-concurrency 8192 -I 13 -g 2 -w 256 --gpu-engine 1050 --gpu-memclock 1460 --auto-fan --gpu-fan 30-85 --temp-target 80 --temp-overheat 85 --temp-cutoff 90


0.5.2 ~ 350kh/s on 2nd card, ~ 280kh/s on card connected to display
0.5.3 ~ 250kh/s on 2nd card, ~ 200kh/s on card connected to display

HD5970: --> 344KH
HD6870:-->  152KH
HD5870: --> 199KH
setx GPU_MAX_ALLOC_PERCENT 100
 .... -g 1 --lookup-gap 2 -w 256 -I18 --auto-fan --temp-target 84

NO HW and no thread-concurency needed, default timings

R9 270x -->205KH
setx GPU_MAX_ALLOC_PERCENT 100
.... -g 1 --lookup-gap 2 -w 256 -I19 --auto-fan --temp-target 84

No HW and no thread-concurency needed, default timings
